if anyone is trying to donate to help in Gaza through orgs, these ones were just banned by the Israeli government with no reason given and can no longer operate in Gaza (at least for now).
these are the orgs: Palestinian Australian New Zealand Medical Association, Glia Project, Palestinian American Bridge, PalMed, Baitulmaal, FAJR, Palestinian American Medical Association, Palestinian Children’s Relief Fund
from what i’ve been told by people who have been working in/coordinating aid in Gaza, Palestinian Red Crescent Society, World Central Kitchen, and Anera are unaffected by this order, but everyone has been limited in what they can bring in. while the middle two aren’t medical orgs, they have been bringing in some medicine. PRCS is a red cross affiliate providing medical care.
(not trying to sway anyone’s donations but wanted to put this out there since PCRF has been the org i’ve recommended several people donate to previously.)
Sometimes I post stuff I know Terfs will hate just so I can get a free block list in the notes
"it's all in your head" correct! unfortunately I am also in there
btw yall if youre in an elevator and a wheelchair user is trying to get in (or out) - hold the door for them! it can take a minute to get into the elevator/get facing the right direction and our hands are, uh, occupied.
I feel like tariffing the "entire world" is literally just functionally sanctioning yourself
how do you look at this and not see the obvious resentment of bi women?
these are all about misogyny toward LGBT women, yet it specifies every subset of LGBT women other than bi women (except by way of being bi trans women)
(especially if you were around for the years which lesbians on this site spent indignantly sputtering about any bi woman who called herself a Dyke for “appropriating Lesbian-Only terms”, how are you not wary of these sentiments by now?)
the implied unity between cis/TME lesbians and trans women is also really funny. do you know how much of the time cis/transmisogyny-exempt lesbians specifically pull all of this shit on trans women? including whinging about trans women being “Lesbiphobic” and Unfairly Targeting Lesbians when we talk about transmisogyny?
“being used as examples, tokens or ammunition for other people's arguments”—yeah, you mean like when cis lesbians dismiss any criticism of transmisogyny by invoking the existence trans lesbians? even when the criticism comes from trans lesbians ourselves?
how do you not recognize that this is both biphobic and also brushes off the transmisogyny among cis wlw
"social media keeps you confined to your echo chamber" i WISH it did i wish all platforms i am on were keeping me in this perfect echo chamber where i only see the opinions of other communist transfeminists and youtube was constantly recommending me videos about how awesome HRT is instead theyre all working together to try to turn me into a fascist
Turn round, on your side. I'll play with your hair, draw on your back with my fingers, and kiss your shoulders til you sleep.
Close your eyes. Feel my weight behind you. I've got you.
I've got you.
i think it's so awesome watching my art grow epicly
