hey there LGBTQ kids who are also Christian/Jewish! If you feel like you’re disobeying God, questioning your faith, or feel wrong and dirty for loving who you love, there’s this fantastic site I found today called hoperemains that accurately and thoroughly combs through scripture and its (many) mistranslations, validates your orientation, and basically let’s you know that you’re not pissing off God. It’s insanely thorough and after reading through every page on the entire site it’s super helpful. Go check it out!

Please Help A Uni Student With No Time Management

I know I really shouldn't conduct surveys on Tumblr for school stuff. But I'm cramming and kinda have no other choice so please take the survey. I promise it'll be short! Thank you!

there is a very real tendency of teenagers with anxiety disorders self diagnosing with considerably more stigmatized and impairing mental illnesses (e.g. schizophrenia, DID, personality disorders), but the best response to that isn't to get angry with them for "appropriating" lol. instead you show them coping resources for the problems they're actually having and deemphasize diagnostic categories in general. if an 18 year old is claiming to have alzheimer's, they're probably making an innocent mistake and are in genuine distress. be kind.

Just saw a tweet like "REAL libraries check for quality!" as some kinda gotcha at AO3?? But I'm a librarian, so... heads up that "quality checks," AKA "weeding" or "pulling," means looking for damaged books or ones that haven't circulated in a few years to clear up shelf space. We don't Quality Check for if the library books have nontoxic romance or good grammar. :U I assure you every library in your area has absolute ABOMINATIONS of bad storytelling as well as your favorite pop lit.

“Bisexual women and their boring boyfriends” I know this is hard for y’all to hear, but I actually don’t give a fuck if you think my boyfriend is boring; “they want us to roll out the red carpet for their ugly boyfriends” I actually don’t give a fuck what you think about my relationships and who I date; I don’t know how to explain to y’all that NOTHING WE DO IS FOR YOU!!! Our relationships aren’t not for you, we dont do ANYTHING for you! We’re not gnc for you (for those of you saying it’ll make you like us more), our relationships aren’t for you (you can have your hurt feelings about our ugly/boring boyfriends or us being poly, I do not fucking care), and we are certainly not bi for you or your attention. Nothing bi people do is for or about you, and you can cry to your Twitter followers about whatever it is we’re doing that you don’t like, because I do not care.

Wild how the queer community has been fighting tooth and nail for generations to have some semblance of inclusion and just the desire to not be beaten, arrested, or killed for existing.

Then there is less than 10 years of policies put in place to help us start being treated more humanely and the Conservative party is like “Actually we rather you die again” openly and proudly.

Wild how allowing ppl to live has made them so angry and more open about their fascism.

Meanwhile half of the younger queers online are too preoccupied with terminology and gatekeeping fandom engagement while our country actively works to eradicate the community honing social media to propagate propaganda.

Jesus is Marxist. I won't elaborate.

The reason Poles on here are trying to get you to call Maria Skłodowska*-Curie by her proper name isn't because we're entitled or arrogant, it's because she used the name Skłodowska-Curie, she emphasised her Polishness her whole life, she faced huge amounts of xenophobia in France for being Polish, and now a lot of people think she was French.

*The pronounciation of Skłodowska is skwo-DOV-ska
