do y'all even know how much i hate being an "elder queer" at 40? a whole goddamn generation before me was wiped out by a plague that politicians deemed not their problem bc it was killing the "right" people. like. this was OPENLY STATED. i spent a large chunk of my childhood going to funerals. nevermind the fact that killing queer people for being queer wasn't codified into law as a hate crime until i was a junior in high school.

i should NOT be an elder queer, i should be middle at most. i am a middle aged queer. most of the elder queers died.

when i was growing up i didn't go to pride parades, i went to pride marches. because that's 100% what they were in the 80s and 90s.

from the absolute bottom of my heart, LEARN OUR FUCKING HISTORY. a generation was nearly wiped out so you young queers could be here. don't let that have been in vain, please.

put that old man in a situation

[the-lavi-to-your-kanda]

in 2020 people were protesting with signs that said "432" . that was the number of Aboriginal deaths in custody since 1991. from 1991 to 2020, 432 Aboriginal people died in police custody.

today that number is 597.

from 432 in 30 years, to 165 in less than 5. thats fucking disgusting.

and of course nothing is being done about it. the police force has done an investigation into the police force and found that the police force did nothing wrong. wow!

i dont have a call to action. i dont have a way to fix this. im just pissed off.

observation: among a certain subset of tumblr users, the term “blorbo” has become unchic, but the concept it describes is still important; and so it has been replaced with “The Character”

absolutely amazing things happening right now. I had to triple check that these were real

i don’t know how to explain to you people that no matter what a country’s government is like i do not and will not support the US indiscriminately bombing that country’s civilians and i don’t know why that’s a controversial take tbh

[the-lavi-to-your-kanda]

the weirdly vengeful and petty tones aborted babies take in pro-life propaganda images are so funny like this passive aggressive "was it worth it mommy?" and "it's a shame you can't join me in heaven mommy 😔" like do you ever wonder if you were aborted for a reason you little bitch ass baby

listen i know it may be difficult to understand but irans government is not some big brother boogeyman. TO be completely frank, this obsession over irans government is hypocritical because i think of Jordan where you cannot even criticize the king on facebook without the secret police arresting you (this is from family stories) or publish news articles about jordans complicity with the israeli regime without being thrown in jail, but damn i dont see the west trying to force regime change in Jordan and I dont see a ton of news articles on Jordans crazy repressive government and thats because Jordan receives US Aid and is aligned with US interests. I just feel like all this "nuanced" conversations surrounding irans government at a time where the US is actively threatening to destroy them is so unnecessary. Also many of you dont actually know anything about iran and all the information you receive from iran is filtered by the government to news outlets that have been spreading genocide propaganda for the Israelis for years and years. The US policy doesnt care for Iranians, the entire US policy in the global south is installing authoritarians they favor.
