Tbh I Think This Shreds

happy trans visibility day!!!!!!!!!!

My dear lgbt+ kids, 

If you want to educate yourself on something your parents, teachers etc. don’t talk about (lgbt+ topics or anything else), here are a few general things to keep in mind: 

- “I want to learn everything about (broad topic)” can be intimidating. You may feel like you don’t even know where to start. If that happens, here’s an idea: Take one thing you know (no matter how “basic” it may seem) about that topic and ask yourself “Why?” or “How?”. If you hit the point where you can’t answer that question or are not sure if your answer is true, you found your place to start! 

- It’s okay to stay in your comfort zone in the beginning. Not a big reader? Watch a documentary instead. Struggle to understand big words? Look for articles aimed at teenagers or even kids. When you got the basics down, you can step outside of your bubble. 

- Make sure your sources are independent and credible: they don’t try to sell you something, don’t use fear, guilt tripping, misleading graphics/headlines or outdated info to change your mind.  

- Feeling a bit frustrated is okay, feeling completely overwhelmed is a sign you need a break. This is especially important when the topic is emotional or personal for you. When we learn about injustices that happen(ed), we can get angry… at the world for allowing cruel things to happen, at ourselves for not being able to magically fix that problem, at our peers who don’t seem to care etc. It’s okay to feel that way. But there’s no use in burning yourself out or drowning in guilt. Taking a break doesn’t mean you turn a blind eye. It’s necessary for your mental health to not think about horrible things 24/7. 

With all my love, 

Your Tumblr Dad

huge shoutout to the guy at the bar who said “i like your dress maam” and when i was like. i’m a man but thank you! he was like “oh shit i like your dress homie” i love you forever

Yesterday I tried to explain to my parents the difference between a transvestite and a transgender person and my dad was like "oh so you know everything about trans people now" like ironically. And I smiled with the dramatic irony of someone whose parents don't even know their baby daughter likes to be called a he/him on social media and queer spaces

you gotta be as gay as possible on the computer otherwise alan turing died for nothing
