Punks/alts/emos/goths/grunge folks of tumblr, when you boycott mcdonalds and starbucks and disney, reminder that pepsi-cola is also being boycotted; meaning monster isn't compliant with the boycott either. BUT there is an alternative: alani energy drinks are compliant. I haf been thinking about it, personally i prefer black tea w/ sugar, but some of my alt friends needed an alternative drink, hopefully this helps!! And even if you cant find an alternative for something, keep boycotting. Free palestine!!
you have to MANUALLY opt out of it as well.
if you’ve already opted out of showing up in google searches, it’s preselected for you. but you also have to opt out for each blog you own separately, so if you’d like to prevent AI scraping your blog i’d really recommend taking the time to opt out. (source)
First post!

PUNK PSA:
Please don’t put anything too political on your back patches— especially about your own marginalized experiences.
This has been a long standing rule in punk communities, passed down for generations. People do get jumped and experience violence as a result of this. You can’t see who is behind you, you can’t tell if they’re far right, and you can’t prepare yourself for sudden violence from behind.
So many people are new to the scene, introduced via social media, and don’t know the weight of walking with something on your back (literally and metaphorically) that immediately outs you as marginalized. If you’re able to defend yourself, or out with friends who can watch your back, by all means go for it and wear whatever you want on your back patches but if you walk alone at all ever, please be safe.
Also this is why punks wear spikes and studs on our shoulders especially. Makes it harder for someone to grab you and works as self defense (but also never wear spikes at a small show or if you plan to mosh— people can get hurt!).
Hey I’m not dead I’ve just been creating and interacting with fandom in a less public way.

Puffy has narrowly escaped capture by a band of bounty hunters. Leaving the wreckage of her ship behind, she sets out to meet up with the rest of her crew. Along the way, she runs into a piglin that seems to need a bit of help. Well, Puffy would never turn her back on a lil (actually pretty big) guy in need, right?
That said, seems this piglin was running from something himself.

“It is through destiny alone that its hosts find Rust’s armor.” But what happens after that?
Or, the story of Rust reforming in a new body, in a new place, and proceeding to walk, hitchhike, and train-hop halfway across the country to find its way back to its family. On the way, it’s finding itself again.
Hello My dearest friends,🌟
My name is Mahmoud Jihad, from Gaza. My home, my university, everything has been destroyed. I now live in a flimsy tent with my family after losing everything. I was studying Information Technology while caring for my family, and now we have nothing. 😔
We are living amidst indescribable destruction and desperately need your help to survive. 😭 Even a small donation can make a huge difference. Every contribution is a spark of hope in the darkness of this war. ✨
My campaign is verified by: @beesandwatermelons ✅ #190 and @gazavetters ✅ #63.

Thank you from the bottom of our hearts. Let's rebuild our lives together. 🙏❤️

Going to the mall as I am now (kinda punky/extremely autistic) is kinda funny like. That's a nice shirt. However, it's not one of my thousand beloved black graphic t shirts and it is such a texture and kind of a weird shape to it and honestly I don't really wanna buy any sort of fast fashion type shit or brand shit. Don't care. Oh they have patches. Kinda cute but straight up I can just make those. In fact, I would prefer to. Don't care. Also I'm not buying that.
Info dump, share if you want or rephrase, etc: Up until today, I’ve been hearing suggestions that people who have changed/are changing their names and gender markers apply for as many official documents as they can esp if they’re in a friendly state. As of the 22nd, it appears that has changed with respect to passport applications, where the Colorado Name Change project is now reporting nationwide officials have been instructed to deny passports and confiscate supporting documents (I.e corrected birth certificates, SSID, etc). Which is to say DO NOT SEND IN YOUR PASSPORT OR OTHER CORRECTED DOCUMENTS FOR A PASSPORT UPDATE REQUEST in the US. However, currently issued documents are not currently expected to be retroactively withdrawn so if you have a corrected passport HANG ONTO IT.
solid information, I'll rally the punks.
PUNKS TELL EVERYONE
I used to work for a thrift store. Trust me. If you need fabric or things for projects, don't buy the clothing off the racks. Ask the folks who work there if they have any they are throwing out that day. If it's got stains or holes in it, most shops can't sell it. Don't forget to buy local folks. Goodwill doesn't help your local community.
