I Worked Very Hard On This

I'm not sure if people are paying attention to Kanye West's appearance on InfoWars, but you should be.

"Why should I care what one right-wing nut job says to other right-wing nutjobs?"

BECAUSE THIS IS A REAL THING THAT HAS TANGIBLE IMPACT ON JEWISH LIVES

Kanye West denied the Shoah on the program. He said that he "loved the Nazis." He said that he "loved Hitler."

Yes, he is mentally ill. That does not excuse this at all- especially because this is going out to his fans.

There are more fans of Kanye West than there are Jewish people on Earth

Kanye, along with Nick Fuentes- a white supremacist- said some shit so atrocious that Alex Jones was the one trying to pull them back- an insane turn of events.

This will have an impact on Jewish people. People are going to be more antisemitic- already, antisemitic hate crimes are rising around both the United States and the world.

Listen to your Jewish friends. Listen to the people impacted by this hate speech.

We will outlive them.

petition-please help UK trans people!

hi tumblr-the conservative party is back at it again. 

currently, the GRA (gender recognition act) says to transition “legally”, trans people have to: 

 get two diagnoses of gender dysphoria (including one from an NHS gender clinic, which have a 2-3 year wait time currently), 

prove you have lived as your chosen gender for 2 years, 

swear to live the remainder of your life as such

and  do all of this in front of a “gender recognition panel”, a process which is very humiliating and largely depends on people deciding if you are “trans enough”. 

in 2018, the idea was put on the table to progress the rights of transgender people in the UK. Including: 

 allowing them to self identify as their chosen gender (including 16 & 17 year olds, who have previously been denied the right to)

demedicalising the transition progress, no doctors would need to diagnose gender dysphoria to transition.

removing the cost to have your gender legally recognised

allow non-binary identities to be recognised

it has recently been leaked that the current government has scrapped these ideas [source  source]. Our equality minister, Liz Truss, is horribly transphobic and wishes to backpedal on the few rights we have. 

trans people have said for years that the GRA is outdated and in need of reform, and have had the tiny ray of hope that it may be changed ripped out from under us behind closed doors. 

petitions on the parliament website are legally obligated to be responded to at 10k signatures and have to be debated in parliament at 100k signatures. please note you have to click a confirmation link in your emails before your signature is counted!

reblog if you’ve read fanfictions that are more professional, better written than some actual novels. I’m trying to see something

More social media networks need to consider pronouns as actual metadata, not just a field in your profile or a bit of text in your profile. They should know what pronouns a user says they use, and they should use that to help you.

Like, if I’m replying to someone, it should be like:

* replying to UserBarBaz (he/him).

And if I type “This is the best thing @ UserQux has ever done!”, over “UserQux” it should hover some text saying like (she/her)”.

Because often you’re talking about or replying to people! Pronouns are important right then, so you can refer to them accurately. 

I dunno, maybe it’s just my ADHD, but I hate having to stop in the middle of writing a bunch of stuff to go open a new tab and click profiles and try to figure out pronouns so I can refer to them correctly, because it severely takes me out of the flow of writing. 

Anybody else got that Evergiven sized writers block
