Me When I Wake Up To 14 Unread Messages From Her, Several Story Likes, AND I Can Finally Stare At Her

life has started to feel a bit hunger gamey with all these celebrities pretending like the rest of us aren’t suffering

instead of beating the dead horse of ellen, i vote heather shaw to be the new evil lesbian comedian

do you ever forget there are people out there that genuinely believe they have the one and only solution to gender/sexuality and anyone who doesn’t see it that way is homophobic/transphobic despite the fact they themselves are pushing the same gender binary they claim to hate so much by separating men women and gender nonconformity into three distinct categories, essentially creating a traffic light system for how we should treat others based on one of the most insignificant aspect of themselves? because i did until this morning

i’m so tired of every single argument that revolves queerness or gender being so reliant on these heteronormative binaries that simply don’t make sense to apply to ourselves.

hope tumblr appreciates this a bit more

Humanitarian Appeal:

With joy in our hearts at the safe return of the prisoner Aidan Alexander to his country and family, we see this as a hopeful sign and a gateway to goodness. We pray it marks the beginning of relief for the suffering people of Gaza.

Today, we raise a heartfelt appeal to all kind and compassionate souls: Food has been cut off for over two months, and we are facing severe malnutrition, especially among children and the elderly.

We urgently ask for your support—whether financial aid or food supplies—to help families who are silently enduring these dire conditions.

Your generosity can bring light and life to those who need it most.

does no one fw the old west anymore ☹️

here’s a fun part of western history for those who indulge:

Mrs. Nash (or old Nash) was a successful Mexican laundress, midwife, seamstress, and baker. Such little is known about Mrs. Nash (or old Nash) that even her first name remains undiscovered.

She married a number of soldiers, including John Newman who was her last husband of five years.

Mrs. Nash was known for being kind and soft with pregnant women, gaining respect in her community of Fort Lincoln. She would bake pies, and would often ask “are ya comf?”

Another detail about Mrs. Nash is that she was a trans woman.

No one knew this about Mrs. Nash (aside from a former employer, who was the one that encouraged Mrs. Nash to pursue work as a laundress rather than cattle work) until her death, where she asked to be buried as she was with her clothes untouched. her wishes were not fulfilled, as this was a time where trans people were seen as “impersonators”. her husband received so much ridicule, that it caused him to tragically take his own life.

Mrs. Nash’s friend, Elizabeth Custer, said she felt no differently towards Mrs. Nash after her death, reportedly saying:

“Poor dear. I hope she is finally comf.”

i highly recommend looking into Mrs. Nash, as there are still some details about her that aren’t included in this post. important parts of history get forgotten and lost due to a severe lack of lgbtq+ representation in schools and media in general. the more people who know about specific instances of trans people existing throughout history, the longer Mrs. Nash and other trans people of history can live on. it is especially important in today’s age that we help everyone remember that queer people have always existed, and will continue to exist.
