it’s been a long time since i was last scrolling down tumblr but i was feeling nostalgic and wow, i didn’t realize just how loud instagram and snapchat stories are. i knew i was overstimulating myself with my devices but damn

Bill Braun creates paintings that look like construction paper!

antisemites are willing to do the craziest loops to paint jews as devil incarnate to the point they blame them now for... -checks notes- more people coming out as trans

and in case you think "this has to be a parody", when someone responded to them that this is unhinged and bad their response was, and i quote: "what? do you love jews or something?"(also their whole acc is dedicated to antisemistic propaganda)

A Jewish couple was attacked on their way to Shabbat services. Raphy was beaten with a belt and had a bloodied face from the blows, but he and his wife still chased after their assailant.

Two teenagers, both under 15, brutally assaulted and robbed a Jewish woman and callously joked about possibly killing her.

What (and it's hard to say this strongly enough) the F.

An artist : Aw man! I saw my arts were reposted on Instagram. I’ve asked them to take my arts down but they ignored me.

Me : Say no more! Click this link, then click ‘fill out this form’. Fill the form and wait for about 1-2 days, the staffs will remove the image you were reporting from the reposter’s account :^)

Now I'm no media literacy expert, but I think the "people base their knowledge of world events off headlines" problem would probably go down significantly if you could read more than the headline and first two paragraphs of an article without hitting a paywall

my partner has been wanting me to watch the new scott pilgrim anime with him and i’ve been dreading it cos i hated that movie so fucking much. i hated scott pilgrim, the character, with every fiber of my being. i’m dense when it comes to media literacy) so i didn’t know he was supposed to be a bad guy. the ex i saw the movie with was also v much in the ‘idolizing scott’ camp, so that didn’t help.

anyways i’ve been looking at stuff about the anime and now that i know it’s not a one-to-one retelling of the movie and also know a crucial spoiler that could positively impact my viewing, i can stop being a jerk and watch it with him.

We have GOT to stop being assholes to people with receding and balding hairlines. There's not a single person that it can't affect. It affects trans men, particularly on hormones, it affects trans women, particularly those not on hormones, it affects people with endocrine issues, something that's becoming more prevalent and common, and it can affect people without a particular cause, including cis women. It's a normal part of being human and we NEED to stop dehumanizing and humiliating ppl for it

I feel like wanting things has been important to being happier for me
