If I said half the things I wanted to say about Canada and Americas relationship as siblings and neighbors, how they're ACTUALLY viewed by the world when it comes to international matters that are actually important (NATO, AUKUS, global economy, AI and tech companies, hegemony etc) and how it would be more interesting to explore aspects of their relationship as well as their relationship with the world that correlates with reality rather than this made up version that dominates the fandom... commie tumbler would hunt me down and kill me

Hello everyone and welcome to my second day of blogging about Palestine
today i wanted to highlight some charities and foundations that you can financially support instead of big companies who are going to fund your money into guns and supplies for the Israel troops
1. Press - House Palestine
Press-house Palestine is a non-for-profit organisation which supports the journalists documenting the lives of people within Gaza. This organisation grants journalists with legal protection so that their experiences and freedom of speech can be presented online. ( they also have a instagram by the name @press_house_palestine ) This link provides articles about ongoing events within the country
2. Doctors Without Borders
i’m sure that there a high chance that you have heard about this one before, but ill mention it anyways since its a good charity. Doctors Without Borders is a organisation dedicated to supplying medical aid to places without proper access to it. what i have linked below is a donation link for their specific Gaza cause, which both implores for a ceasefire and provides Palestinians with medical equipment. you have the option to donate monthly or just one time
3. Islamic Relief Australia
this organisation is one that is located within Australia, but strives to provide food and water to the people. So far they have already given 16000+ people water and over 1 million ready-to-eat meals. They also have other donation links within the site that incudes to help rebuild infrastructure within Gaza and to help rehome palestinians to Australia. NOTE: There are other varients of this organisation within other countries such as the UK
4. Olive Kids
Olive kids is a foundation focused on supporting the children of Gaza. this includes education, medicine and food. This is another Australian-based foundation but that is because i live in australia. if you want to find region specific causes for your location then please google it yourself. Australian causes can be donated to by anyone anyways so you might aswell use this info anyways
5. Action Aid UK
this foundation focuses on providing Palestinians with the services that they do not have anymore, such as power and electricity. They do 90% immediately going towards the people of Gaza and 10% for future emergencies
I also want to stress two things. 1, if you arent in the right financial position to donate then dont, spreading the word does help aswell and 2, im not the excuse for you not to research yourself. all of these groups i found by myself via google, and as long as you have some media literacy, you too can find information. and you should find more than 5 and spread it around, i just wanted to highlight 1 from 5 different sections since i hadnt even heard about most of these until now.
more organisation/fundraisers here:

okay so obviously people have been conquering other people and taking their land for literally tens of thousands of years but i was thinking, what are other examples of like "genetic displacement" on the scale of british settlement in northern america and australia? like, 95+% of americans have no or almost no indigenous ancestry, which is weird!
(although actually i guess this is in some sense less true now that we have a significant hispanic population, because hispanic people are often a significant chunk native. however the people theyre descended from were culturally and i believe genetically distinct from people living in what is now the US, for the most part. unless theyre from like, chihuahua and living in the southwest i guess)
anyway, its strange! its not usually how conquest works. i guess the new world conquests were unique because they brought new disease with them, which doesnt happen as much if its intracontinental conquest. but disease cant be the whole story because europeans also brought disease to south and central america and those arent nearly as genetically displaced.
i think the ancient bantu are understood to have done something on this scale? not sure who else. oh, the moriori! on a very small scale.

an absolutely harrowing read regarding disability services in Australia
to even be considered for a disability pension or support or anything is an arduous process built to break you so you give up and don't take up precious resources that could be used to line governmental pockets
the process for me was multi-year and involved dragging my ass from here to there to see doctors of their choosing and sitting in uncomfortable rooms with strangers explaining why I'm so broken and need help, and to be honest as a white male with a relatively able body I have no idea how difficult it could be for those who arent
to go through all this only to be treated like the dregs of humanity, or even seen as less than human, is vile and disappointingly unsurprising
fuck governments and arcane bureaucracy and especially those who use the system to personally assault and torture those who need help the most

Jesus christ I am so sorry for grade school kids, it's just getting worse and worse isnt it?
For those who dont know about the most recent horrible implementation in schools (atm this seems to be centralized to Australia and the USA, but it's entirely possible it's being implemented elsewhere too), apparently a lot of school districts have decided it's a good idea to start forcing kids to lock up their phones without immediate or easy access to a key, with threat of immediate suspension if they're found not complying.
Schools are using something called a Yondr pouch (that costs those districts tens of thousands to buy, by the way) that is made to put phones in and lock with a magnetic lock. One of these is given to each student, and they are expected to lock it at a magnet set up outside the school (at least at my siblings school, I'm not sure if that is the universal set up or not) at the beginning of the day, and unlock it in the same place at the end. I couldn't find any articles talking about the issue in general, only for specific schools. Just look up Yonder pouch at schools if you'd like to read more into it, theres plenty of articles.
I'm sure that, as long as you've thought about it for more than two seconds, you can see how at best this is unnecessary, stupid, and useless (kids have Already figured out tons of ways past unlocking it, obviously), and at worst it could be fucking deadly.
How are kids going to coordinate their ride home from after school activities? Ask family to bring in things they forgot? Receive important and/or sensitive information from family during school? Go without alarms for medications? Call for help or warn others when someone is hurt or a fucking shooter breaks in?
I could go on and on and on about how fucking stupid and dangerous this is. It is Going to get someone hurt. No one deserves their school record being ruined by this. And even if some schools arent that strict, I can sure bet they'll play favorites.
Please, please, please, if this is happening in a school district that affects you or your loved ones raise as much of a complaint about it as possible. Talk to parents of other kids, talk about how dangerous this could be, email your districts, do what you can. If you're not affected, reblogging/letting others know and/or supporting people who are helps. And kids affected by this please just do your best to stay safe. Magnets will not damage your phone, so I reccomend finding any that are small and strong enough to open the lock to keep with you if you can, or look up other methods of unlocking them. Please, stay safe. I'm so sorry you're being treated this way.

arent ocean liners and cruise ships basically the same thing? how can you like one and not the other?
oh my guy, theyre certainly not the same thing.
they might seem similar to those of the world who arent super into ships, but theyre both different vessels by design and function. if youd rather watch a video detailing differences, id recommend this one by the great big move or oceanliner designs video comparing the strathaird to the pacific encounter, but ill also happily explain some basic differences because i like infodumping.
see we dont really have a use for ocean liners anymore; they were mostly phased out when jet air travel picked up steam. the only one existing today is the rms queen mary 2.
ocean liners acted essentially as buses for the sea. they offered regular passage across continents. the most famous route is probably the southampton to new york route which is what the titanic was intended for. most of the famous ocean liners were on this route like the lusitania, the queen mary, the normandie, the bremen, etc.
but there were plenty of other routes going across the whole ocean. the italian line had a south american service, canadian pacific had a whole thing from liverpool to quebec that linked to their railways, p&o did a lot of stuff around australia and aotearoa, etc.
because of the regular passage offered, ocean liners couldnt sail around storms like cruise ships do. they had to battle the storm to get to their destination on time which means the ships were designed with this in mind. they are designed to travel through open oceans to cross large distances while cruise ships tend to stay close to the coast and wont travel far at all, relatively speaking.
as such, ocean liners sit much lower in the water and will tend to have a long, pointed bow. this allows them to much more easily cut through oncoming waves. if theyre sailing around icy waters, theyll also have reinforced bows like the stockholm did. after titanic, ocean liners began to be built with a "second skin" to their hull which is just a second hull inside the outer hull to reinforce the ship and protect against damages from anything from rough waves to icebergs.
further, the bridge on an ocean liner will be higher up, often on the top deck. this both aids with navigation for the crew as theyll have better vision, but also stops high waves from breaking over the bridge and covering it with water. the very few times where this occurred were often rogue wave encounters like the lusitania and the leonardo da vinci. the lifeboats will also often be positioned more inward to protect them from any damage from rough seas or weather.
this isnt to say cruise ships arent built to withstand rough weather. they certainly are, but not repeated occurrences of it. an ocean liner was going to face rough weather week after week after week; cruise ships tend to have the luxury of avoiding it.
cruise ships will sit higher up in the water, their bows will likely be much softer in angle and they will sail at a much lower speed.
if an ocean liner is a bus for the oceans, then a cruise ship is a party bus.
while most ocean liners did have beautiful interior and quarters for passengers, they dont hold a candle to cruise ships which are comparable to holiday resorts.
as ocean liners were being phased out, many lines began operating them as cruise ships because they could easily be converted into such. this happened with plenty of ocean liners like the ss france. others were specifically designed to operate as ocean liners half the year and cruise ships the other half like the rms empress of britain.
however, a cruise ship could not operate as an ocean liner because its simply not built for that.
this isnt getting into all the ethics of both vessels and their industries because thats a whole different topic that i feel much less qualified to speak on.
i will say that i am not a fan of cruise ships or the industry as a whole, and that also, cruise ships are so fucking ugly, my dude. they look like badly designed malls dropped on top of ships.
but yeah tl;dr: theyre different types of ships with different designs and functions. see the bus vs party bus comparison, i guess.

OK this isn't a bug or even an arthropod for that matter, and I'm sure it's been brought up in the biology circles of Tumblr before BUT I wanna take a second to talk about the Giant Gippsland Earthworm (Megascolides australis)...
So, I'm sure all of y'all know the typical earthworm, just a few inches long, the type of little guy you find under a rock or in the dirt after a rainstorm, right?
Well, then you have these guys:
Tumblr media
[Image ID: Invertebrate ecologist Beverley Van Praagh holding a Giant Gippsland Earthworm with arms outstretched to show its length / Credit and Source: Rodney Start and Museums Victoria]
These gigantic worms are about 1 metre (3 feet, 3 inches) long, are 2 centimeters (0.79 inches) in diameter on average, and can get up to 3 metres (9 feet, 10 inches) long, yet are still only 200 grams (0.44 pounds) on average! Even their babies are 20 centimeters (7.9 inches) long when they hatch!!
Speaking of the babies, they take a shockingly long time (for an earthworm) to mature! They can reportedly take up to 5 years to reach maturity.
These guys, are, perhaps unsurprisingly, native to Australia (in a relatively small section of Gippsland in Victoria), and only live underground, about 52 centimeters (20 inches) down, in moist clay, near water, and arent really spotted often because of this- However despite the fact they're typically very slow, if they move fast enough in their burrows they can be detected. Why, you may ask? Because it makes a sound, one that sounds like gurgling or sucking apparently.
This species of worm is really fascinating (as are earthworms in general)! and I also feel it's necessary to bring up the fact it's also considered to be endangered
Here's some more reading on this species for those who are interested:

Mysterious Times(aka Jamies book from Rotg)CH1 THE EASTER BUNNY!!!
THE EASTER BUNNY(also known as the Easter Hare or the Easter Rabbit)
Age:Unknown
Home:Unknown
Status:Active
Power:Rabbit Prowness and speed(More possible but unknown)
As part of the legend, the creature carries colored eggs in its basket, as well as candy, and sometimes toys, to the homes of children.Showing similarities to Santa Claus by bringing gifts to children on the night before a holiday. The custom was first verified sighting was in Germany in the late 16th century.
However...Native Aborigians of Australia have myths of a simmilar creature which according to legend help build there land and was there protector. It is important to note that these come from about 20 000 BC (as seen in some cave drawing dating back to then)so that might mean that he been with us longer that thought.
His apperence is quite different according to sources some say he looks just like a normal rabbit while others say he is more humanoid and is roughly 7ft long/tall.Some speculate that his small form is just mistake that really what they saw were regular bunnies while others say his big form is fake as it could have been just a costume.While some say maybe both forms are real it is unclear why he has them and how he changes them.
From sightings weve gathered that he is exceptionally fast and agile becuase whenever he was spotted he would run away at high speeds.Its theorized that he has more powers for example recently on an easter he was spotted in 2 distant towns which would either mean that there might has been an hoax in one or that he can go at unbeliveble speed or maybe even teleportation.How one rabbit woudl manage this?We dont have the slightest clue.
Sightings were most common in the 16th and 17th century especially in Europe whilst also being spotted in other continets too.While sightings of him have still been happening to this day for one reason or another he seems to be appering less and less for whatever reason.
Nevertheless even if he isnt seen or heard from there always seem to be so many Eggs on Easter which arent appear inexplicably....well there is quite a chance that there is an Easter Bunny in one form or another.
Mothman(or Mothmen)
Age:Unknown(Born prior to 1967)
Locations:Unknown
Status:In hiding
Emerged in 1967 from the association of sightings of a strange winged figure around the city of Point Pleasant, West Virginia with the with a disastarous bridge collapse happening not long after which killed 46 people. In the years after the disaster, some came to see the link between the sightings of the entity dubbed the Mothman and the collapse.
Mothman sightings decreased sharply afterwards, but the occasional incidents and resurgences eventually led to a formalization of who mothman is and how he truly looks like.
They resembles a vaguely humanoid bird.They most likely has enormous glowing eyes as the original sightings often reported otherwise indistinct figures with large, luminous eyes standing out against the gloom. The creature may not always have a distinct head, instead simply having a rounded torso marked by two glowing, lamplike eyes.
Mothmen, due to their association with the disasters, are often linked with disasters. It has been theorized that they are a sign or an omen of some imminent disaster in the near future.Mothmen rarely do anything themselves to hinder the event or speed it along: indeed, their motives are almost always deliberately mysterious. They watch from the sidelines, observing seemingly random people, and then quietly vanish after the disaster invariably comes to pass. They do not usually attempt to communicate with people, but those they observe may be stricken with nightmares relating in some form to the future tragedy. Their motives are often unclear at best — they may be actively trying to cause the disaster, they may be trying to warn people of their imminent danger, or they may simply be passive watchers, come to observe the calamity for reasons of their own.
Even if we could confirm they exist there motives are shrouded in darkness.
(Artists impression of Mothman)

Not to be an angry assyrian... but, anon, my silence on what? Sorry, i was too busy trying to stay alive and mourning those who died and trying to keep our culture alive... to comment on american christofacism? Which now that I'm actually safe and in Australia without the active threat of genocide, am combating (australian christofacism)? Because it kills us too, because they think their version of christianity is the only correct one.
"All Christians are bastards," not sorry to challenge your world view, but Christians arent privileged everywhere — we just had a genocide in 2013 where we were literally crucified and it's still not safe for us to come back.
My cousin was chased by a knife by her classmate's older brother, it wasn't just the terrorists doing it. My uncle was kidnapped. My grandfather was killed. My mother's uncle lost his leg. My other cousin died at 20. That's not even half of the list. Barely a quarter. They shot my cousin's husband in front of her.
Should I have left them all to die, let myself die during an active genocide, renounce the exact thing we were being killed for — that my family were murdered for, and say "Christianity is bad actually and all Christians are bastards look at the crimes we're doing in Europe that are unconnected to me and that I have no power over because, I (and my community) have no power."
No, and fuck you.
Also, that's such... a privileged way of thinking because white christianity harms us too. We used to get white missionaries to try and convert us, because we were seen as "lost" to them our christianity was "wrong". In my short stint in Jordan, while I was waiting for my immigration papers to go through so I could go to Australia (because Jordan wasn't safe for christians either, I was in a particularly bad neighbourhood because no one is rich getting out of a genocide and our neighbours attempted to set our house on fire. The police did nothing about it.) We got white missionaries trying to convert us in our churches, too.
The west calls us "islamisized christians" or "muslims wearing crosses."
That's just such a privileged line of thinking because... marginalised christians and marginalised christan communities exist there too. Let's talk about USA, because I'm assuming that's where you're from given the phrasing, well then let's look at Latine christian communities: do christofacists not tell them their christianity is wrong, too? Do they not attempt to proselytise and convert them? I'll answer you, they do. They tell them they're idolators, that they're doing christianity wrong, that their christianity is backwards, primitive, and "pagan", is that not a harm to a christian community where christianity is a majority? There have been and still are active efforts to both convert them and erase latine christianity. Is that not harm?
They do the same here to us, even though we're amongst the oldest of christian communities. If not the first. Extremist Australian christians dont like us and our traditions, either.
So anon, our silence on what? Speak on what? When our voices and goddamn existence (pertaining to my specific community) are being actively silenced and erased?

i cant sleep so im awake.
i did notice a drastic change in colby from watching tfil like compare their australia/nz trip to their road trip with andrea (its the only way i can differentiate)… earlier videos he’s such a bundle of joy and, ljke you said, just happy to be there. he put up with being pressured and humiliated for content…
skip to the road trip and he’s like a pissed off angsty teen that’s only putting on a good face bc his dad promised him he could go to his friends house party if he did the chores.
speaking of his dimmed light, i can’t even watch videos of him during the apartment era that arent his videos bc in everyone elses videos he’s, again, like someone forced him to be there when he’d rather see how long he can hold his breath underwater. Even in some of sams videos he’s a background character who just radiates depression. Its almost uncomfortable to watch but im also glad they dragged him out to be in those videos and be with friends in those moments bc even forced interaction is better than nothing if you are in a deep rut.
anyway on a positive note he seems perfectly solid now. ok maybe not perfectly solid but im not worried abt him like i wouldve been had i been around during sadboi blue haired depression colby era.
- aussie anon
Yea, that TFIL roadtrip with Andrea was filmed in 2019, aka the apartment era, and that just seemed to be a really bad era for him, mental health wise. He mentions in another video (I truly don't remember which) from around that time that he went through periods where he couldn't really even leave his apartment or talk to his friends unless he was being dragged out to film, and that shows.
Lowkey, I always wondered if that wasn't part of why they abandoned the idea of living separately so soon...
Regardless, he still has his good periods and his low periods, even to this day, but he seems more solid with them (or maybe he's just better at hiding it, idk), so at least there is that.

Okay pls as someone who is only like a mild fan of mcr, why is everyone freaking out right now? I’m so confused.
a couple reasons!
tonight is the last show of the american tour. there's still shows in australia and some festivals, but those arent for a few months.
tonight is the last night of 5 shows they've done in LA, and so far each one's been centered around a specific album (bullets, revenge, black parade, then danger days). as we know, mcr only has 4 official albums, so ppl are speculating what tonight's theme will be/what they might play
we're getting all sorts of nuts news from twitter, both real and fake! the REAL news is that they sound-checked sister to sleep, a song from either the bullets or revenge era that has never been recorded or released in any way whatsoever. we've also got some fake set-lists and a fake leak of the lotms2's title.
there's now a DVD section on mcr's merch website, most likely in preparation for lotms2

I honestly think such a prime example of "because its beth" is when you look at Kerr.
Now let me start by saying I dont dislike Kerr, I dont like her, Im completely indifferent to her. But when I think of some of the things Ive seen from Kerr, I think you can look at how people react that says so much.
Obviously without the ins and outs of the latest racism stuff, Im talking about how she had used hashtags and stuff on old posts that she has now deleted and yet no one makes a fuss on them (and lets be honest, not that much fuss was made on the current racism thing even before we knew what was actually said), yet you have people bringing up those thatcher tweets with Beth that are as old if not older than the hashtags and stuff on Kerrs posts but yet no one really brings them up. And then you add in that Beth gets called racist just because she was asked a leading question and came out with an ignorant at best response but by no means was it "Racism" itself.
I also think that Kerr has shown just as much support for some "questionable" athletes in the past as Beth has but again, no fuss made on that. But not just Kerr in this case, SO many players have shown support/that they are fans of questionable athletes but again, I dont see people making a big deal about that.
Its just SO clear that its a Beth agenda because its so clear that there are plenty of other athletes that have done similar (and some even worse) and yet they dont get half as much shit and if it was years ago then they get the same people bringing up old shit for Beth that say those people clearly arent the same people they were then and theyve grown up. Its just constant contradictions with these people that show its an agenda
Okay, let me get this clear I'm a massive fan of Kerr for Australia, not at all for Chelsea. Having said that, here's my opinion.
I don't like some stuff she says and does. Sometimes, for instance, when she spoke up about someone telling her goals weren't valid, I found that inspiring. She was brilliant.
But some other times, she says and does stuff that would be genuinely questioned if it was anyone else. That's exactly the reason she went ahead and said what she said to that police officer. I don't think I mentioned this, but I stand by the opinion that she should not have said that. He may be an asshole she may not have meant anything and was very drunk, but still, she shouldn't have said it. I know there are sensible people in Australia who think the same way but won't say that publicly because we all love her. This time, she just said her usual arrogant thing, but to the wrong person. She may or may not be punished for it, who knows.
Another thing is, imagine if anyone else did this, the conversation around it would be so different. Now, imagine if Beth said something remotely similar, we'd all be crucified along with her. There is a bias in how fans perceive situations like that and their preconceived notions about players come in to play when they decide how to react to them.
Only a very few can objectively say yeah Kerr is wrong in the policeman incident, and Mead is wrong in the Krygios incident. But one is bigger than the other and let me tell you it's NOT the one that's been discussed on social media every time they want to drag the player, it's the one which has made the player a cult hero.
(I do find it hilarious that both EH and SK don't seem to think one bit before they speak. They're made for each other, no wonder they get along so well).

Ollie here again. does really matter whether i point that out so whatever. u said you weren't rude and then called me a pissbaby so, And the "saying super homophobic shit" I'm aro/ace myself nor do i believe legit anything of what i said that was homophobic, u will not believe me. i do not care.
You diagnosis a "brief" examination
I myself am diagnosed and that was the way i was diagnosed myself, i explained another version which I myself was also diagnosed under, as you can see we cannot relate with how we were diagnosed, so this is proving my point that how you have gotten diagnosed is not a universal thing so you can now see why i was skeptical, because even with telehealth if you don't have insurance, it still costs money. which this also depends on where you live, because in America they do not care about free healthcare. and from the places that i understand that do give free healthcare like Canada if your a birthed citizen , and like Australia or smth, How you got diagnosed is not universal, it depends where you live and what hospital you go to ect.
hypocrisy: the examination.
You clearly weren't understanding the meaning of what this word is so i will put it here along with the example i previously stated. from the Merriam-Webster "a person who acts in contradiction to his or her stated beliefs or feelings" you say you support Trans ppl but if they don't meet your criteria of what YOU think a trans person should be you, exclude them. your reply was also not related to the point i was attempting to make, "It's not hypocrisy to provide a safe space for a group and exclude people" You should have worded that better with the point you were attempting to make, Ill use a similar example to one a friend told me "i joined a adhd club and they kicked me out because i wasn't "adhd enough" Its what you are doing and its hypocrisy, you are telling people "yep i support trans people but oh if you don't have a diagnosis something that sometimes cost quite a bit of money, you aren't valid and you aren't transgender because i say so", not a exact quote but you should get the idea.
I was incorrect: a analysis.
I will say i was incorrect about rad meds and trans meds. "If you would actually interact with trans meds instead of foaming at the mouth and screaming in all caps whenever you see one you would know that."
Sorry that i don't wanna associate with someone who's harming the transgender community and states that the multiple years of my transition aren't real because i wasn't diagnosed, and that I've basically only been a actual trans man as of recent because i got my diagnosis within the last 6 months. so all of that experience i've had was just me being a tomboy..
Do you hear how that sounds crazy, that everything i learned in all those years, I've labeled myself as trans is now just me being a tomboy woman who was just struggling with their mental health and how their body looked ect. ect. that's saying that my entire transition was just me pretending to be a man. that's so heartbreaking knowing that some trans people in my own community didn't see me as a man because i didn't have a diagnosis. but maybe you got a diagnosis before you started transitioning so you might not even know how that feels, but what do i know right?
You arent a poor child: a small examination
Yes i did look into this, now if you mean the term like poor as in lack of dollars maybe, that could be the cause and I'm not going to discriminate against that.
You could have meant poor as in "woe of me" type of way.
But you aren't a child. your in college , as u stated on your Youtube video, which is public, and i will ask you to please ask non trans meds about the information in your videos because me and my inclusionist friends definitely saw false things in your "lgbt 101" episodes, which you say are based of your opinion and how there are others that exist but you never actually go over those opinions and let a watcher think about which one they believe themselves.
And harassment in America means: " It is commonly understood as behavior that demeans, humiliates, and intimidates a person,"
I haven't attempted to lower you statue in the trans med community and i do not care to do so.
I did attempt to humble you, but the information that i believed was to be correct was false and you instead humbled me so, its whatever.
and i will say i took the screenshots incase you did delete anything or attempt to spread a false narrative, but i did not have any mean to actually use the photos against you in any way. as i said in this message which you have most likely seen "its possible they are sending screenshots of not the whole story so i have the whole thing", saying "gathering stuff on the owner" was false and i do not care enough about you, which u could say "oh you do, you've sent me 2 asks and talked to me on discord" being blind sighted by rage is a interesting thing. i cared about making a impact, because i was angry.
You told me i needed to get help, some people can not afford to get a therapist, i don't want a therapist that i wont feel comfortable with and have been taking my time searching for one that will fit me. I'm glad that you are able to get the therapy and help you need for little to nothing but i able unable to do so.
-ollie,
I'm still annoyed but I'm not angry so.
hopefully this is enough for you.
> you said you weren't rude and then called me a pissbaby
Because i wasn't rude in the chat. I wasn't rude to you, until you were rude to me. See how that works?
> I'm aro/ace myself, nor do i believe the things i said, not that you'd know that though
I know you were trolling. However you thought the best thing to do was harass a server that is open and accepting of asexuals and run by several asexuals was to pretend like you avidly oppose asexuals, and make homophobic claims you do not believe in because you wanted to hurt people. And we're the group that's harmful? Right.
> the way i got diagnosed is different from the way you gotten diagnosed, so you can see it's not a universal thing, blah blah blah.
I live in america. In a red state. I have zero insurance. I have not spent nor will I spend a single cent and yet i am being diagnosed in two appointments, one in person and one over the phone. I am not using telehealth. I also have an entire server full of diagnosed people. Some have been diagnosed for no additional costs to the physical medical services they attended to in the ER, physician visits, PBH, ect. So don't give me that. It is not difficult to get a diagnosis if you attempt to do so.
> your example of why you aren't a hipocrite isn't true because i had a better one, and adhd club that kicks people out with adhd for not being ADHD enough.
That isn't what this is. Ths isn't a "trans enough." Debate. This is a "trans at all" debate. Only trans people.
> your belief that you must be diagnosed
I never said you must be diagnosed not has any common transmed ever said that. It's a strictly radmed thing. We believe you must have reportable or "diagnosable" dysphoria. Which includes persistent euphoria in most cases because euphoria is caused by dysphoria.
> sorry i don't want to spend time with people who told me my years of transition aren't real because i wasn't diagnosed
I can't confirm this isn't true but my other mods have seen your account and know that you are likely a minor so imma take that with a grain of salt. I highly doubt transmeds have been telling you your transition isn't real because you weren't diagnosed. A, because transmeds are quiet irl. B, because there is only a very small portion who believe you need to carry a diagnosis to be trans. C because if you're willing to cry and scream to get your way you're willing to lie too. I used to be like you, I've played this game.
> you aren't a poor child
I never said i was? That was a comparison. You must be either dim or completely unable to read context clues to come to the conclusion that i made that claim-
> Which you stated in your YouTube video
Lemme get this straight, you are so pissed, so mentally unstable that not only did you troll my server, send super long messages to the mods, and send THREE 3 (•••) super long asks, but you also stalked my YouTube channel and got pissy over there? Jesus man. Get your issues under control.
> Your LGBT 101 series was wrong and you should have used inclusionist points blah blah blah
I used to be an inclusionist. I know that stuff is incorrect. Not only this, but if anyone wants to know the inclusionist set of beliefs i have an breakdown of that on my Discourse Academy series that breaks inclusionist and exclusionist beliefs down. I stated in the beginning that my beliefs are not everyone's. If they want to see other people's beliefs they can literally go to every other lgbt education channel. Which are almost all explicitly inclusionist.
> behavior that demeans, humiliates, or intimidates a person
• demeans
- name calling, personal attacks, homophobia, transphobia, acephobia
• humiliates
- name calling, personal attacks against members
• intimidates
- horrible statements that all of us associate with actual conservatives who have harmed us in the past. Which you would not do to other LGBT people if you had experienced because you would know what that feels like.
>I do not care... ...I cared because I was making an impact and was angry
You did not make an impact, you looked like a screaming monkey to everyone else involved.
You clearly did care because you send THREE (3) {•••} Novel long asks, which i know because you referenced the radmed one, you looked through my entire YouTube channel, send novel long messages to all of the mods for muting you for saying fucked shit, and you went out of your way to troll because you can't get your shit in order.
You are being a hypocrite by making this statement as you directly contradict yourself in literally the next sentence.
> you told me to get some help but I can't do that before I can't afford it
If you can't afford therapy than maybe you should think before doing something that clearly shows you need therapy. You can always check into an ER and they can send you to a mental hospital. Normally medicaid covers those.
This is not a brag. This is you displaying your complete lack of self control, and obsessive behavior, as well as a lack of anger management. You need to see a therapist. I promise you there are places in your area that do it for free or very cheap. If you don't want to go to a therapist you don't like, have you considered you don't like the therapist because they're breaking down your bad behavior?
Ps. I know you're angry because no calm or rational person sends an anonymous ask this long
Everyone else... This little guy is such a riot huh? It's hilarious honestly, I'm gonna see if he left any mean comments on my YouTube videos.

We both know Sexual harassment/violence is sooooo hard to report for many reasons
It doesn't count as sexual harassment (whatver they did to you)
You're blamed for it if you look a certain way
The cops literally don't fukcing care and they'll say stuff like "and ? What do you want me to do"
There's a lot of shame and victim blaming when it comes to these things so women don't even think about talking about it sometimes.
There are so many other reasons.
Sexual harrasssment is present everywhere but it is much more present and violent in MENA. Again, I'd rather have to deal with EU men than MENA ones any day of the week.
MENA men would call me a slut, and a traitor, would tell me i deserve to be raped and killed just because I was exmuslim. They would sexually harass me and touch me inappropriately whenever I was wearing a short skirt and short shorts, whereas EU men didn't really care.
In my home country I have to fucking cover My entire body during the summer whenever I go out. In the EU, I'm just so carefree like no one bothers me about not covering up, everyone minds their own business. EU men harrasinng me was a rarity.
Again, I don't know why you're so adamant about downplaying how severe sexism can be in MENA countries just because those men happen to be Arabs and/or Muslims. If I had traveled to Australia and the white men there had been as sexist and violent I'd still hold the same speech
i did not use police statistics. i used the results of surveys.
i love that u keep changing the topic to other things no one was even discussing?? who even was arguing that in MENA women arent expected to cover more?? who even was saying that if u go to a bunch of muslims and tell them "im an ex-muslim" that theyre gonna react to that kindly?? women have literally yelled out calling me a whore & slut for wearing baggy shorts that were longer than knee-length in bahrain. muslim women have treated me like garbage for not being religious since i was like 6 years old. those things aren't even specific to men and aren't even relevant to the convo which was sexual harassment.
