most damaging idea of the 21st century: the conviction of vast numbers of people that human history will end within our lifetimes
climate change represents world-altering tragedy if unchecked, but not even in the worst-case scenario does it mean “literally everyone dies”
yet so many people have jumped already to “it’s over, the world is going to end, we can do nothing about it” and are just paralyzingly cynical. How do I explain that the power to imagine a future is essential for creating it
It terrifies me that there’s so much raging passion in the lgbt+ community that insist on marginalizing asexuals and implying that asexuals don’t deserve to have safe spaces. There’s still so much acephobia so I just wanna know which blogs are genuinely supportive and a safe space for asexuals

you walk into an old and run down forerunner lab, it's mostly empty except for a lot of banished bodies... and then the bodies start moving.
like with fake outs it would mess with the expectations of old fans who expect the flood all the time, and get new fans by having it be something fucked up they don't understand
i love how this is phrased like a commercial trying to sell me on the concept of bait-and-switch in storytelling
Everything is like “QUEER history” and “List of QUEER young adult books” or “Top 10 QUEER movies” and queer this and queer that and for the love of god please just say LGBT.
God i can't believe tucking is considered a 'normal" thing even in trans spacess. that shit is beyond painful even trust me I've done it before. I can't even tuck for more than a few minutes on end I cant imagine how bad it would be at a few hours
