Hey!! I’m starting on a research project and I want to know—what are some queer/trans subcultures you’d like the world to know more about? I’m not talking identities listed in the acronym but instead identities that not enough people understand or respect, small tight-knit communities, or even unique organizations! A queer church? A queer artist co-op in the middle of the desert? If you know about it, I want to learn about it! Let me know!

Right, considering the current state of corporate politics on this site, and that it seems that only those affected seem to be actively speaking on the matter, it is up to I, the only fucking cishet on tumblr, to drag this out to a wider audience.

REBLOG IF YOUR ACCOUNT IS A TRANSFEM SAFE SPACE.

We need to show these higher ups how much we truly value them.

Protective prompts:

“Get behind me.”

“Hold my hand, okay? It’s gonna be over soon.”

“Close your eyes for me love.”

“When I say run, I need you to do as I say without looking back and don’t wait for me.”

“It’s all going to okay, they would never hurt you again.”

“I swear to you, that as long as I’m alive I won’t let a single soul ever harm you.”

“Listen to me.  . . take deep breaths, yes follow my breathing just like that. There’s no need to panic, I’m right here now, aren’t I? You’re safe.”

“When you love something, you protect it with your entire life at stake, and right now, my guts tell me to do the same.”

“I’ll be back very soon, but don’t come out. Stay there hidden until I come back and try not to make a noise, hmm?” *forehead kisses being a must here*

“I’m so so sorry! I wish I would’ve never left you alone! If I knew this would happen, I would never leave you alone.”

i love writing desperate, enraged knights. those who scream at the sky, covered in dirt and gore and spit, a bloodied sword grasped in one sweaty hand, an item in remembrance of kinder days or the flesh of a friend/lover in the other.

I’ve been making gay knights (and ladies) collages on my phone at work

Big fan of sun motifs in characters not necessarily being about positivity and happiness and how they're so " bright and warm" but instead being about fucking brutal they are.

Radiant. A FORCE of nature that will turn you to ash. That warmth that burns so hot it feels like ice. Piercing yellow and red and white. A character being a Sun because you cannot challenge a Sun without burning alive or taking everything down with them if victorious.

you just hate me because several life times ago I drowned you in the lake and got away with it

No I’m not attracted to you. Quit your evil putting your finger under my chin to make me look up at you. I know I’m your nemesis and all but we really need to set some boundaries when you’ve got me tied up like this.

writing tip. let your characters lose in ways that matter. Let them lose in ways that can't be fixed. Give them permanent scars. Loved ones who will never come back. Mistakes they had every opportunity to avoid but still made, that will never get fixed. Let them feel guilty for things they actually did wrong, not just traumatic shit that happened to them that wasn't their fault. Let your characters lose for real. Your story will never have any real meaning beyond light entertainment if the audience knows you're too much of a coward to let your hero actually, really lose.

Take that article with a grain of salt. It very well might be true, but I couldn’t find any other mention of this, and this is what Wikipedia says about the site as a whole.
