Camp Trans, 1993an annual demonstration and event held outside theĀ Michigan Womynās Music Festival in Oceana County, Michigan. This demonstration was held to protest against the Festivalās policy of excluding trans women from attending.
Do you know what the consensus on pit bulls is? Some people say the negative stereotypes surrounding them are unfair, while others insist they’re inherently dangerous dogs that shouldn’t be kept as pets. Both views are biased to some degree, so I don’t know which to believe.
and same as german shepards, same as huskies, same as dalmations, they have specific breed requirements and arenāt right for every home! also like all dogs, they have to be trained to be a reliable and safe pet. but with their needs met and good training, theyāre about the same as any other dog in their size range (with individual exceptions for personal history and trauma of course)
Except pit bulls have the ability to lock their jaws unlike other dog breeds. So even if pit bulls arenāt more likely to attack someone, an attack is likely to be much worse than an attack by any other breed.
common misconception! not actually true tho
they just have very strong jaws, but so do many other large breeds
i love how whenever something gets popular the underground tormented avant garde bloggers start becoming self conscious of liking it/finding it funny, and it eventually evolves into aggression towards it. doesnt matter what it is. unrelated but i saw someone call isopods cringe today
My roommate and I are disabled and trans. Heās recovering from a health crisis. I had a post up to help us with rent, ultilities, and household necessities, but it got a lot of notes and we didnāt come close to our goal.
I will do art for anyone who gives $50+ just message me at my art blog @theartistrans
This us urgent, rent was due Wednesday, so we are very much late. Please help. We are $85 away from even paying rent. Dm me for proof or details.
I wanna come back to this, because I think its emblematic to something common that I hate to see in fandom interpretations of characters. Seeing a new character with different interest to your own should be an opportunity to expand your world view. literal children will see a character whoās a firefighter or an astronaut and develop an interest in that.
but adults will see a literal punk musician, and rather than decide to explore what music and culture inspired this character, instead re-imagine him engaging with material they find familiar, and ultimately safe.
I donāt likeā¦ have any feelings towards this guy personallyā¦ but this is a trend I see in fandom, especially around characters of color from cultures the fans are not familiar with. there is a desperate need to decontextualize them.
there is this absolutely DESPERATE need among especially white fans to prove that characters of other races but ESPECIALLY black characters are Just Like Them For Real by just copy pasting their favorite personal characteristics (or often just straight up stereotypes, like that shoplifter miles headcanon that went around) onto these characters. God forbid having to learn about a culture or even a subculture unlike your own, right
