So we all know that Tumblr is US-centric. But to what degree? (and can we skew the results of this poll by posting it at a time where they should be asleep?)
Reblog to increase sample size!

no problem! i like finding ppl who share the same thoughts. people these days are too… performative? they like laughing at things they find cringe like it makes them feel superior (this also applies to ppl who hates on specific characters not because they genuinely dislike them but because it’s the trend). but yea i’m glad we’re still more safe in tumblr😔 go draw the art!! write!! we’re not doing anything “problematic” we’re just indulging ourselves
you're right on the nose anon!
media literacy is dead which makes people too concerned with whats "cringe". i appreciate the encouragement ! we go out together, once more into the breach to indulge ourselves

what's so striking to me about younger queer generations rn isn't the lack of knowledge about queer history, but the complete unwillingness to engage with it, when confronted with an identity or history they haven't heard of before they react with disgust rather than curiosity. (for example) instead of asking where the leather pride flag came from and what the leather community is and represents they immediately question the need for something like that to exist, not even willing to listen and learn from both elders and peers. this is also more broadly a problem in leftist spaces in general, being reactionary is somehow the default now, and anything that's different or unknown must be an attack and bad. really hoping y'all manage to grow out of this deeply conservative way of interacting with the world.

Concept: foggy café. It's just a regular café, except they've got a fog machine going at all times whenever they're open.

we're so lucky to get to eat so many staple grains tbh. like in early history you'd have to just eat what grew around you on a day to day basis like if you were born in asia hope you like rice if you were born in northern europe hope you like einkorn wheat. but i'm gonna eat rice AND wheat AND oats today. fabuloso

When the rest of the world looks at the united states right now, we see a government who sends billions to support genocide but cannot help their own people starving on the streets.
We see a police force who won't go in to save children from school shootings, but deploy at a rapid rate to arrest peaceful protestors using their right to free speech to protest a genocide
America, you are a war mongering snake eating your own tail. You will protect and support war criminals in another country but let your own people starve and die
To the students bravely protesting now, we see your strength. We see what we saw when students protested the Vietnam War. We have faith you will prevail

I am overwhelmed today.
I used to fall apart when things Got stressful or bad, like the needle that breaks the back. Because nothing was ever stable, so when anything extra was added, I spent time drowning.
I am overwhelmed today. My chest is tight with anxiety, I cannot seem to regulate. I am full of a deep sadness.
My brain rushes to the usual suspects
'what about our dead dog, what about All Of our trauma, we cannot do this we cannot do this anymore and all the time."
But beneath that a strange sense of sturdiness.
Instead of the water coming up to drown me again I am met with risen ground.
My feet are still wet, but a voice in my head, maternal and violent says "but we can. But we are. Feel your feelings. They are outside your control, do not hide from the sorrow and anxiety, but do not think you are on anything but solid ground."
And I hold myself in that way. Some big version of me scooping up my youngerself, exuding a light I didn't think I had. Even as I hold my cat beans. He is safe, and knows this, limp and relaxed, even as my tears hit his fur..
The desire to be ok has fully reaped, for the first time in my life even as I cry, and struggle with the weight. I am OK.
I am OK.
