genuinely so fucking tired of people leveraging the "groomer" argument against people who support sex ed because scientific literature over decades shows that comprehensive sex education starting around kindergarten actually prevents children from being sexually abused and groomed because it teaches children the correct words for their body parts and also teaches them concepts of privacy, personal space, bodily autonomy, the difference between appropriate and inappropriate touching, and the fact that sex is something that only adults do. children with this knowledge are not only better equipped to identify abuse and predatory behavior and communicate that its happening to a trusted adult, but also prevent it from happening in the first place by recognizing when something is happening that shouldn't.
sex education does not sexualize children, it prevents children from being sexualized. anyone who is against early foundational sex education and claims they are doing it to protect children is a fucking liar.
If you’re a real human person still using the default tumblr avatar, consider changing it.
why should you change it?
When you guys pop up in our notifications, most seasoned tumblr users will suspect you’re a bot and block on sight.
why do we block immediately?
tumblr has a history of bots trying to infiltrate and establish a connection to a valid, existing blog in order to populate google searches. Simply liking or reblogging a post, not just adding a scam link to it, establishes this connection. Tumblr users don’t want this to happen, especially if it’s a scammy p*rn bot. So, we often block on sight.
So now I have to reblog stuff AND change my pfp?
Well, of course that’s up to you! I just want to explain why you may have been already blocked by an artist/blogger you may have discovered recently, and how you can avoid it in the future.
Reblogging does help creators more than likes because your reblogs will show up on the dash of those that may follow you. Plus, reblogging puts that post on your own blog, and in case the original gets deleted or edited by the OP, it’ll be on your blog like that–forever (or until you delete your blog). Nice.
Here are some free icons created by catalyststuff on freepik. Highly recommend their art for a simple replacement!
Pfft lol omg ���� I love this! Thank you so much for making it you are amazing!
I still don't understand why they couldn't get the original voice actor of Mario in the games to do the movie 🤔 I mean Chris Pratt is an alright actor, but no he's not Mario sorry.
I drew this before the movie trailer was released, but honestly, it can still apply.
Wow this took forever to post lol xD I finally got it done and House of Taylor is on its way! I'm kind of iffy on the background color, but overall I think it turned out alright in terms of pixelated art for the House of Deacon!
“I’m his caretaker, I’m his guardian, and so that established that dynamic between us. And I understand, and I probably saw a lot of crap that Eddie had to deal with growing up with whatever parents he had. Probably some abuse, trauma. I saw that, and I made it my mission.” - Joel Stoffer
