childhood best friends with ushijima means that he told you what happened during his first encounter with hinata and kageyama and you smack him over the head with a rolled up notebook for being so condescending to first-year students he doesn't even know

Some things to do if you live in the United States as a queer person or a woman:

Learn self defense. You don't know whether someone will harm you. The idea that someone might is not far-fetched.

Stock up on contraceptives. Shelf life of plan B is four years. See this list for information about condom shelf life. These may become banned.

Buy queer books. As many as you can afford, starting with trans books. These may be banned soon.

Stock up on HRT medication if possible. This will likely be quickly banned when Trump becomes president. HRT meds have a shelf life of 1-3 years depending on the kind; check on the container! Read about DIY HRT here.

Read about what Trump and his followers are planning to do about abortion and other reproductive healthcare (i.e. contraception, etc.).

Read about what Trump and his followers plan to do about trans healthcare and rights for same-sex couples (I say same-sex instead of same-gender because they don't care about gender).

Teach your children (if you have any), siblings, friends, family, and especially other queer people and other women around you.

If you are too afraid to remain in danger, register for a passport as soon and look into countries you could move to. Look at what you'll have to do for jobs, living, a visa, citizenship, etc.

You may want to stock up on educational materials about prejudice, slavery, Native people, and other materials that may be censored.

As a reminder: This won't necessarily become a necessity. But based on the many things Trump and his supporters have said about the issue mentioned within this list, these actions will, unfortunately, probably be needed. Don't avoid taking these actions until it's too late. Do these before it's too late. Start now.

took a day or so to wait on this just to make sure i wasn’t talking out of my ass here but

the censorship on tiktok has ramped up significantly since service was restored to americans

i’ve been active back on here long enough to note that the level of censorship on tiktok that was present before the ban was a joke on here. words like “unalive” are stupid and ridiculous (and in certain cases when it comes to filtering specific words, downright dangerous) to non-tiktok users, but the reason words like “unalive” and other heavily coded language came to be so ingrained in tiktok users’ vocabulary is because the platform itself would either flag videos with the actual words like “kill” or “murder” or “dead/die/died” and remove them from the platform, suppress the video to the point where large creators were getting maybe 20-30 views (when their norm is 20,000-30,000+), OR it would shadowban not just the video, but the user themselves. tiktok’s user base linguistically developed into the heavily coded version of english that the public sees (and in many cases, rightfully makes fun of) today specifically to get around the platform’s arbitrary and ill-defined censorship rules to reach the widest possible audience they could reach on the platform. it sucks and it’s stupid, we think so too, but it’s what we had to do to make the platform what we wanted it to be.

now that tiktok is back online for americans, i’ve seen a lot of people testing whether the algorithm is still working by saying things like “trans rights are human rights” and “universal free healthcare” and things like that, and the algorithm itself does appear to be working as comments on those videos assure the creator that their video was on the fyp and found their target audience. HOWEVER. many users, myself included, have noticed that comments speaking negatively about trump specifically are being forced through a creator-approval process when that NEVER happened before. additionally, videos discussing trump in a negative way are now limited on the number of times they can be shared in-app, meaning that if i wanted to share one, the platform would limit me to only 5 shares before it tells me that i’ve reached the max number of shares. instead of being able to send a post to a sixth friend’s tiktok dm, i would have to copy the link and send it to that friend outside of tiktok, and that’s assuming the platform would allow me to copy the link at all.

one creator even tried to include a clip of trump HIMSELF FROM HIS OWN RALLY IN DC saying IN HIS OWN WORDS that he rigged the election, and their video was flagged and taken down. does it annoy me that i watched one creator say, verbatim, “d.t. just admitted that he rigatoni’d the electioni (pronounced ee-leck-tee-oh-nee)”? YES THATS SO ANNOYING. but it’s also the only way we can communicate there now, and the implications of that are terrifying. mass deportations start in the next 24 hours along with the 100+ other HORRIFIC executive orders trump is signing the second he’s back in office, and the biggest social media platform in america was essentially just gagged by the platform itself. i am BEGGING any american citizen (or anyone else!!) who reads this to not allow your biases against tiktok blind you to the reality of what’s happening directly in front of our faces.

Now’s a good time to call your senators, the press will need all the protections it can get for the coming years

[bellyhasabellyache]

just wanted to make my stance on here crystal clear . i am pro-choice, anti-deportation, i am pro-palestine, i support queer youth, the black lives matter movement and believe that children in schools lives are more valuable than the banning of an app that fosters lots of community and social interaction. i know my rights as a citizen of this country and i’m gonna exercise the fuck out of them.

if you think a convicted felon, and an accused sex offender has any right to be in office, especially after some of the events of yesterday’s inauguration speech, please feel free to block me! i don’t care that much <3. people i love are no longer safe and the only thing we can do is stay strong and fight the good fight.

birthright citizenship is being threatened, leaving people i care about vulnerable. basic healthcare is being denied, including life saving reproductive surgeries and medical transitions for queer/trans people. the 14th amendment of the constitution is under attack.

if you want to ask me questions i will more than happy answer them with sources to back up my claims! feel free to ask for resources for any knowledge you need and i will do the research for you (to the best of my abilities considering i am still a student).

KNOWLEDGE IS POWER AND YOU HAVE A SUPER COMPUTER IN YOUR HANDS RIGHT NOW!! GO LEARN SOMETHING!!

dont doomscroll too much these next few years and make sure to take care of yourself so we are ready to bounce back when we need it the most.

This kind of sh*t is sad, it’s maddening, it’s irritating and it shows the effects of gerrymandering.

Margery Transhater Green will be in congress FOREVER, unless she “aspires” for a change (maybe grand wizard of the KKK? 🤷‍♂️) She is sofa king embarrassing!!! She’s not even my representative and I’m utterly embarrassed and disgusted with her behavior and rhetoric.

Remember when she was going off on Fauci!? That was this year I think, maybe 2023. “MR. Fauci, because you’re not a doctor to me..” Lol! It’s like, listen here Hateful Helen, this man was creating vaccines and saving lives when you were blowing your Sunday school teacher in middle school. I believe she said he should be charged as a war criminal!? What!? Because you had to cover that Neanderthal mug of yours!? Everyone won with that!

Then there’s Mace…. She is SO desperate for attention. It’s pathetic. She’s basically jumping up and down with her hand raised every time what seems like a reporter is near. I heard she gave An interview to a server on accident! Just kidding. I made that sh*t up 🤣 If they can just make stuff up why can’t we!? I could see it tho…

Just cuz im trashing on Stepford wives here, we’ll throw in Bobert too. It’s like, C’mon CO!! You’re so friggin sweet how do you elect this raunchy racist!? She is a disgrace to the state of Colorado (my home state if you weren’t picking up on my allegiance there) There are some rural ass bumf*ck parts of CO, but that’s no excuse to support Lucky Lefty Beetlejuice Borbert. Remember that State of the Union when here and Amud 1 (oldest Neanderthal remains found 😆) were acting like they were at parent teacher conferences in middle school. It’s like, listen up ladies!! This is the most powerful person on the planet, you’re up for reelection every 2 years!

That the fate the rest of us suffer with this hyper gerrymandering. Not to mention all the disenfranchised, marginalized voters too!

There needs to be a change in how elections are funded. There needs to be a binding ethics code with SCOTUS. The drawing of districts needs to be addressed. Legislators conduct and obstructionism needs an overhaul.

And it ain’t happening any time soon because somehow this mutinous maga mutation has all three branches. WTF!?

Anyway. They suck! Good for that person for not backing down, but not walking in to their trap. It’s very brave of them.

[gloom-and-doom-in-my-room]

Look yall I hate both candidates as much as the next person and agree that Biden fucking sucks as a best option, but can we not with the speech impediment jokes? Make fun of literally anything else, please.

[thetimelordbatgirl]

Well given you can piss JK Rowling off for not being a bigot like her alone, is it a surprise David Tennant has now added JK Rowling to list of bigots he pissed off for simply telling a bigot like them to shut up??? Let alone is it a surprise JK Rowling is retweeing a tweet trying to weaponize misogny against David because when in doubt, act like being a woman means people can't tell you to shut up when your being a bigot???

Repost from @muslimciviccoalition:

Honor Wadee’s memory and take a stand against all hate. Urge your senator to support the Wadee Resolution!

Wadee AlFayoumi, a six-year-old Palestinian Muslim American, was the first victim in the U.S. following the events of October 2023.

Misinformation, systemic discrimination, and dehumanizing rhetoric lead to increased hate crimes targeting Palestinian Americans and other communities.
