[Commissions: Open][Trades: Art for fic or art for art: Open][Collabs: Open][Prompts: Conditionally open][Requests: Closed]I am queer, married, white, a feminist and left of liberal. Very pro-union. My pronouns are she/her. My name's Steff. Currently unemployed, but I have been everything from a toilet scrubber to an account manager to a web designer to a professional writer. My fandoms are Star Trek: The Original Series, due South, older SPN, Star Wars (mostly prequels) and some others. I'm totally a member of the Darth Maul Defense Squad. I also do some original work. Sometimes I post art, sometimes fanfic, sometimes meta, sometimes antifascist and other angry leftist stuff. I'm also apparently now associated with guillotines, and I can't bring myself to mind that legacy at all.

If you weren't already concerned about TikTok, you should be. You fucking should be.
It's already being censored and I've had Christian content pushed onto me. Also, check out when I tried to search for certain terms below.
I searched for Hitler. Nothing came up. In fact, it told me to "get the facts". I know plenty of videos have been spread about him and WWII Germany, so this is highly highly suspicious.
Then I search for anti Trump. Only "Trump campaign 2024 commercial" shows up.
What about anti Trump rallies? Recent trump rallies, latest trump rallies, trump rally 2024, etc.
Many are participating in Operation Firewall, a similar strategy used by us here on Tumblr and gold on BlueSky. Ignore and block all conservatives while lifting up progressive and liberal voices. I will be doing this until the app is officially bought, at which point I'm fully deleting.
Please share this. I know some of you have a disdain for TikTok, but about half of America uses the app. It's used for things such as sharing protests, marchs and events many news outlets won't cover due to their own agenda or time.
Don't let this be buried.
Bonus: TikTok is thanking 'President' Trump prior to his inauguration for 'saving' TikTok. Despite Biden saying he would not enforce the ban prior to it going dark. Don't forget this was a stunt and TikTok has come back corrupted.

Welp. This fucking sucks. As we all knew it would.
I'll still be here, posting good news and only good news, no matter what.
The United States is going to be a much bleaker place for the next four years (and hopefully no longer than that).
But there's an entire world out there that's not the United States. And even in the United States, there are literally millions of people trying their best to do what's right and to protect everyone they can.
Hang in there. Find something you can do to help the world and the people around you - no matter what it is, no matter how small.
And whatever you do - whatever you have to do, emphatically including if you need to not look at the news ever for the next four years - keep yourself safe, and keep yourself alive.
This too shall pass. Literally everything does.
There is still a whole world out there. There are millions of people doing whatever they can to help. This situation is awful but it is not hopeless.
Whatever you have to do, keep yourself alive.
There will be a time when we're on the other side of this. There will be a time when this horror show is over, and we've made it out.
I am going to see you all there, or so help me fucking god.

Abigail Larson:
Today in Milan, a student activist group hung a trash-filled effigy of Musk upside down on a gate outside of piazzale Loreto, where Mussolini's body was displayed in 1945. They left the message: "C'è sempre posto a piazzale Loreto, Elon" (There's always room in piazzale Loreto, Elon)

I grit my teeth and read the entire executive order regarding trans people, and I just want to take the opportunity to remind folks not to forget intersex people. One of the rescinded documents is “Supporting Intersex Students: A Resource for Students, Families, and Educators," and there is a huge emphasis on legally enshrining "only two sexes."
Yes, this affects trans people, but with the way intersex voices often get ignored in trans spaces, I just want to remind folks not to shut us out. Don't forget us. Don't keep talking over us. Don't act like we aren't on the front lines. Don't act like this is just about you. Please.

Love referring to characters who are never seen without each other as "bonded pairs" like yuuuup. if you put these two in separate cages they're gonna get real sad and anxious and possibly violent too, one of em is biting the bars as we speak. you gotta adopt both of them or none at all, it is encouraged that you take them both. they are most likely to thrive if they stick together. it is easier for them to get used to new environments and situations because they have each other. they do everything together because they love each other so so much. you COULD separate them but it's gonna do a lot of psychological damage and it's gonna lead to a lot of issues and there's a big possibility they'll never be the same again
#-snorts-#michael carter#ted kord#like probably more than any pair i've ever written tbh#though corry and scotty kinda come close

My least favorite things about anti- UBI discourse is always the techbros whining that "nobody is going to work anymore! People will just watch Netflix all day!" and I have 2 responses:
1) Who the fuck cares. Who the fuck cares what people do with their time! That's kind of the fucking point!
2) People aren't going to stop laboring. Housework (look, it's right there in the word!) will still need to be done. So will maintenance on our homes and personal spaces. Children will still need carers, as will the elderly and disabled. There are millions of examples of ~work~ that we do all the time, uncompensated, that won't suddenly stop because we aren't forced to sell our labor to provide corporation's profits.
I'm not surprised that what is traditionally women's work is invisible to these dipshits, but it never fails to anger me.
Anyway. Join the IWW.
#i've been unemployed for six months#i hate it#like-- desperately#i want a job#ubi would have made it possible for me to stop panicking#and start doing other things while i searched#rather than just being paralyzed and filling out applications

reminders for today:
if you or someone you know might need it in the next few years, purchase plan b. the shelf life of plan b is 4 years, and we might not be able to access it as easily as we can now in the days ahead.
if you are larger/plus size: go online and purchase ella instead of plan b. plan b is less effective if you aren’t under 160 pounds.
if you can, purchase books that project 2025 is looking to ban.
mass deportations are starting. if you see ice vehicles or agents, yell ice raid and la migra as loud as you can.
if someone asks who you voted for, keep your mouth shut. they’re fishing for traitors.
if anyone, anyone at all asks about your neighbors or their legal status in the us, you know nothing. don’t be the reason that their family is separated.
if anyone asks about your religion or lack thereof, keep it vague. this administration will look for any excuse to persecute you.
your friends are trans or queer? for the next four years they’re not. don’t expose anyone’s status as a trans or queer person to anyone else, even if you think you can trust them.
did someone you know get an abortion? no, they didn’t. they were never pregnant.
in short, don’t be a snitch, and keep to yourself these next four years. we’ll make it through this even if it seems hopeless at times.
this is all i can think of at the moment, but i’ll be adding on to this as the day continues.
we can survive this. we’ve survived before, and we’ll survive again.
#if you can afford it#i recommend exercising your 2A rights#it's never a good thing when only the right wing is armed#i'd prefer a country without guns#but this isn't that country and won't be any time soon#so i'd recommend it#especially if you live in a red state#just for self-defense

So if you think Trump is Jew friendly consider that he just pardoned this guy.
