im only just now watching the ranking icons video <-phake phillie

genuinely love that phil does headspace spons like of all the spons he's done, that app is the one i'd recommend the most

#and even more glad that he doesnt do shitterhelp ad reads :)#dan was probably like. 'bitch we both see actual licensed therapists.'#betterhelp is so shit like maybe some ppl had good experiences #but i listed i wanted an lgbt friendly preferrably poc therapist #and i got matched with a 60 y/o white guy who was not licensed and did not acknowledge me talking about trans stuff at all #and theres many other anecdotes that are even worse

this might sound a bit. asshole-ish? but the type of gay ppl that go on vacation somewhere and go "cant believe we have to pretend to be roommates in this country because being gay is illegal here :(" get extremely on my nerves

#is it the fact that they make it seem like homophobia only exists abroad?#like they think the country theyre visiting is specifically gonna target THEM to imprision instead of like... the actual gay locals #that are more at risk???#or even when a single lgbt person goes abroad and is like 'i had to research what countries i could go to that are lgbt friendly'#as someone who is extremely cishet passing. and YOURE ALONE. and even if they yell slurs at you youre not gonna understand them so? idk #and its usually white people saying this too (and i say this as a white person). it just feels like them using their oppression bc they LIK #bc they LIKE to feel oppressed. like theyre cool. as in 'look at me i also have a hard time traveling'#(in comparison to poc's racist experiences abroad)#z xarre

Maybe stop assuming the person is bad people are defending this person for a reason op could have easily messaged and talked to them instead of making it public They could be poc disabled lgtbia for all we know

lol, it's not an assumption. It's all there out in the open on their blog. You can very easily go to their page and see them reblogging from a fascist blog and posting terf rhetoric. Maybe people are defending them because they, too, hold these deeply harmful beliefs and not because they're an innocent person being unjustly called out. Just a thought!

And honestly, I think behavior like this SHOULD be called out! It can make fandom spaces very unsafe for a lot of people if some of the big names are the kinds of people who support ideologies that want them dead. Because the people that follow these sorts of problematic big names either agree with it, are excusing it, or are passively absorbing those beliefs. I'm sorry but that sort of thing can't really be sorted out between two people in DMs. Those are deeply held bigoted beliefs that are actively harming people, not a personal beef between two people.

And even if they are poc, disabled, or lgbt it doesn't give them a free pass to be bigoted towards other people. The blog that the original post was about IS lgbt. They're also a terf who is buddy buddy with a fascist account and they reblog some pretty awful shit. Being a minority doesn't mean that it isn't possible to have awful beliefs against other minorities and it doesn't give you a get-out-of-jail-free card when you DO hold those beliefs.

#lol the idea that because they may be ''poc disabled lgbtia'' means they can't be in the wrong is ridiculous #especially when it's these exact beliefs that DO make poc disabled lgbt people feel unsafe and unwelcome #Like I'm sorry but none of that excuses being friendly with and supporting a fascist blog and spreading terf rhetoric #If you honestly care about the poc disabled lgbt people in the d2 fandom then you need to weed out your fascists and bigots #because otherwise those are the exact groups of people that are going to feel unsafe and unwelcome and be pushed out

Inclusive app for women, women aligned, queer and poc that love gaming. Sadly you need a working phone number for it but I do like the app.

Call It Through as a Crew: Alleviating Some Phone Anxiety

Hello everyone! So as you probably already know, there has been a recent call to make, well, calls! Another member of our crew figured out that the max customer service line (855-442-6629) is a very effective way to get our feedback heard, as the feedback gets transcribed and shared to a multitude of teams.

I already sort of briefly shared my experience on this post, but I wanted to go a bit more in detail to offer some solace for those who are also phone averse, as well as share resources and get the word out even more.

And y'all, when I say I'm phone averse, I mean PHONE AVERSE LMAO; MY FEET WERE SWEATING JSDKLS LIKE I WAS FIGHTING FOR MY LIFE. So I totally, TOTALLY get it, and am here to walk you through everything in detail!

So I called that number and was on a brief hold--probably like 5 minutes or so. The customer service representative (Margot my bestie Margot) then picked up, and asked for the email associated with my account as well as my full name.

I was extremely extremely worried and anxious about being bothersome/annoying the person on the other end and just being able to feel it in their tone, so I was shivering and sweating all the while. But then when she asked for my reason for calling, I said, "Oh, it's actually in regard to some feedback," and she went, "Is it for Our Flag Means Death?"

And we both laughed, and I was like, "Haha how did you knooooowww?" And she laughed some more and was like, "Let me tell you, I have never seen anything like this in all my years working here. We are getting so many calls. It's incredible."

And by that point, a large weight was off my chest because she was friendly, I was friendly, EVERYONE WAS FRIENDLY.

I laughed and told her that we were a very passionate and concerned bunch, and she told me that she thought that was so cool and also super important. She then allowed me to tell her my feedback, and she transcribed it as I talked. This was the little script I had prepared in case you'd like to reference it:

I just wanted to call and express my disappointment, dissatisfaction, and concern with the recent cancellation of Our Flag Means Death on Max. As a queer person myself, this show has a tremendous impact on me. And in a climate where so many diverse and LGBT-centric shows have unjust ends, I’d just like to express my wish for reconsideration, and just the hope that…Max will allow LGBT stories like ours to live and flourish. And I’m really worried about there being some kind of…homophobic angle to the cancellation, so it would mean the world to myself and so many others if the decision could be reversed, and we could get our third and final season.

I went a little graver than originally planned, because I saw talks that taking a DEI (Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion) angle, as well a "hey I'm a queer person and this feels like a decision made for a nefarious purpose" angle, are supposedly more likely to be noted.

Anyway, she allowed me to say my piece and wrote it all down, and then actually stayed with me on the line to chat a bit more. So, the phone call didn't feel rushed or anxious which was SO so huge to me; it felt far more conversational.

She was like, "I don't want to toot our little horn or anything, but Max really takes all this feedback into consideration. It will be passed to the properties team (or something equivalent, I can't remember the EXACT term she used), and they're in charge of what goes on Max and why. So, I really feel like you guys have a fighting chance with these efforts."

And of course I was thanking her profusely for telling me all of this, and for listening; polite menace, that will be my brand!

But man, the coolest part of all? She told me that she was POC, and a queer person herself, and that this was all so cool and so amazing to see. She applauded our efforts, and expressed interested in the show. I laughed and said, "Well uhhhh I might have a BIT of a bias, but I cannot recommend it enough."

And then she proceeded to tell me that it might be even MORE effective to hit from different angles. So, keep calling (they're available 24/7), and also keep utilizing the online feedback form. Basically just keep FLOODING them with how much this means to us and why.

I then expressed a lot of gratitude, we exchanged pleasantries, and there was a brief survey at the end. I don't think the survey is necessary, so you can probably hang up by this point, but I stuck around for a little more horsepower. It tells you to rate the customer service on a scale of 1-5 with 5 being the highest, and you know I gave my bestie a fivvvveee. It also tells you to press 1/2 if your issue was resolved or not. I said HELL TO THE NO, DUDE SJDKLS. And THEN, it asks you to leave a voice message after the tone describing your experience. I said that I was with the customer service representative Margot, and that she was extremely friendly and helpful, but that the issue at hand will not be resolved until Max reserves their decision about the recent cancellation of Our Flag Means Death (I'm also always saying the show title in full as opposed to just the acronym, just for more OOMPH).

...And thennnn I proceed to shake it/shriek it all off LMAO.

Buuuut yeah! Probably took a total of 10 minutes or so. @xoxoemynn also shared with me that she's seen people say that these customer service representatives likely deal with older folks who need help with technology, and are subsequently stunned (and maybe even excited) to talk to younger people who just want to voice concerns instead of chew the poor customer service people out lol! And Margot also mentioned that they were eager to take calls no matter what, so as long as we're all polite and succinct, I don't think we'll have to worry about a very tense and awkward call.

I hope this alleviates some fear a bit! We got this, crew. We're doing so, so much. And it seems like it's being heard all over the place; it also seems like we've got so many people on our side, too. Big big hugs, and I'll share the necessary resources once more-

Customer Service Number: (855) 442-6629

The Online Feedback Form:

The original tumblr post with all the information:

The tumblr post where Fox and others were sharing even more information:

#OFMD #Our Flag Means Death #OFMD Season 3 #Renew as a crew #SaveOFMD #RenewOFMD #Be a lighthouse #WHEW LMAO #WE'RE TRYING #i told em this but you KNOW it's dire when all the anxious/nd individuals are cALLING PEOPLE SJDSHDLKS #WE SIMPLY: DO NOT DO THAT EVER <3 SKDJLSDS #IF WE CAN HELP IT #SO IT'S REALLY SAYING SOMETHING #And also again-- just want to reiterate that this is great practice for calling local representatives and politicians too!#ESPECIALLY if you're phone averse #It just gets you used to the whole process in a BIT of a less formal scenario

Here are some witchy things you can do to help the shambles of the world rn:

- performing spells to diminish the power of Republicans, conservatives, terfs etc

- preforming good luck spells for Hawaii and healing spells for the people the fire has effected

- performing healing spells for the lgbt+, poc, etc communities

- watering your plants while reciting healing and protection spells to combat deforestation

- NOT BURYING PLASTIC/GLASS FOR SPELLS!! Don't bury things in glass/plastic/ other non-eco friendly bottles or jars or anything else!

- Also don't put those things in the sea/rivers/lakes!!

- make bracelets/necklaces/other things (if that's a thing you're interested in, you could buy them [or just not do this ofc, this isn't a list of requirements lol]) and charm them with healing/good luck/protection and donate them to homeless shelters or other places

- charm anything you donate honestly

- put protection spells on animals/bugs/plants you find!

I'm sure there's more but these are all I can think of rn. Again, this isn't a list of requirements it's just a thing I thought of while researching ways to help the environment. I wish you lots of luck with your endeavors!

I'mma be real. Hot take, nobody on this site will agree.

But on WoW, there's an epidemic of people with the Total Roleplay 3 mod who put "LGBTQIA+ Friendly" in their profile on mouse-over.

And it just leaves a really sus taste in my bisexual mouth.

Like, bro.

Imagine if you were a black person and you drove by a garage sale and it says "BLACKS WELCOME" on a sign out front.

Imagine if you were trans and someone had a shirt on that said "I am proud of the fact that I do not violently murder trans people."

Imagine if you were a parent and someone walked up to you and went "You have a cute kid, don't worry I am not a child predator"

DO Y'ALL SEE HOW FUCKING SUSPICIOUS THAT SOUNDS?

Why do you gotta specifically identify a marginalized group of people and exclaim that you are friendly towards them?

It just sounds like you're trying to cover up something

Just put "Friendly" in your profile

"Whisper Friendly!" "Walk Up / Tell Friendly!" "Welcoming to all approaches, very friendly!"

When you put "LGBT Friendly" in your profile it's just fucking weird and you're the last person I believe is actually friendly towards the LGBT. You've already introduced yourself by labeling the LGBT as a separate group of people, therefore immediately segregating them into a group separate from cis/hetero people. You have already exclaimed to me that you are willing to separate people into labels and treat them differently based on those labels, I absolutely do not believe you are an unprejudiced person.

If I saw someone with a shirt on that says "ABSOLUTELY NOT RACIST, POCS ARE WELCOME TO SPEAK WITH ME" I would immediately assume that's the most racist person in the room.

Edit PS: Remember folks. The people who call themselves "Nice Guys" are the most likely to not be nice guys. *tips fedora with pride pins all over it* M'lady/M'dude/M'them.

Edit PPS: Again I bet nobody agrees with this post. That's fine. This is Tumblr. I'm going into this expecting for people to say something like "Real rich coming from a transphobe" and I'll just reply to them with a cool fact about goats.

Edit PPPS: You don't have to call me that to get a goat fact you're very welcome to just ask for one.

"my fav is a war criminal" support group [ Fandom | Fire Emblem | 18+ ]

Hey! Are you still obsessed with Fire Emblem but all the servers are dead? Join this one!

"my fav is a war criminal" support group is an 18+ Fire Emblem server focused on community, developing and sharing headcanons, fanfic and fanart, and maybe the occasional tea party.

The server is a safe space for POC, LGBT+ and/or ND people (Mod is all three)

FAQ

-This is this Edelgard friendly?

Of course. (I mean like extra because I'm the only member at the moment) There will be a "debate/discourse" channel that you can opt into to engage in friendly debate and discussions. My other fandom is marvel, I like a good debate. However, the server itself will never bash any character for the crime of being a women (or mentally ill)

Heyo. I’m Gemini Jones. Lover of spec-fic and especially good worldbuilding.

Look man. I don’t know how to start these kinds of things, but long story short, my activity on tumblr these past couple of months has been pretty dodgy, and has slowed my dash down to a snail-paced crawl. So. I’m looking for some new writeblrs to check out! Interact w/ this post and I’ll give your page and WIPs a little look through!

Bonus points if you’re—

17+

write predominantly spec-fic (sci-fi, fantasy, supernatural horror etc.) for adults

Absolutely adore worldbuilding or have wips w/ lots of lore

poc/lgbt+ friendly (or your wips have a majority poc/lgbt+ characters!)

Can’t wait to meet all of you!

hey, "friendly" fucking reminder! I don't tolerate racists on this blog! I am pro-Palestine, and if y'all against immigrants, homeless people, POC people, disabled, lgbt, or just generally treating people like fucking human beings, get the FUCK off my blog, cause some of y'all seem to have forgotten how to treat others with basic human decency.

#yes this is targeted & you know who you are
