At this point, gender nonconformity is about what the person says their experience is.

If a woman with a beard or a man with lipstick and a mustache says they're gender nonconforming, then they are! If a woman with short hair or a man with long hair says they aren't, they aren't! And that's not even getting into the awesome nonbinary, abinary, genderqueer, intersex, and general genderfuckery that may both be and not be conforming.

So much of what is even considered gender conforming or gender nonconforming is based on a world of exclusion. When we start defining one's conformity with whether they fit into white cishetero perisex standards or not, we play into the idea that there's only a very narrow window of what is considered worthy of time and thought.

honestly probably for the best that lestat interrupted and killed father matthias because what was the dude gonna say to THAT screaming crying throwing up confession

somehow don’t think “three hail marys, son” is gonna cut it

It’s past 1AM and instead of sleeping I’m thinking about this GIF

OK big question do you like rick with a beard or with no beard /ans of you do how long/short do you like it?

I won't cop out and say it's all good to me (even if it's true). It's 1000% the S9 Santa beard for me.

It's plush and full, still rugged but it has shape; it's not so overgrown that his jaw isn't defined. GRAY 🗣 HAIRS 🗣 ARE 🗣 LIFE. I love old men, you'll never catch me picking a beard without some gray unless I have utterly no other choice.

"Biden is the best choice and he's actually really empathetic and reasonable but also you can't wait for a candidate that won't do genocide and war crimes because to become a presidential candidate you have to be willing to do that" see what you fundamentally don't understand is I'm not waiting for a candidate that won't do war crimes, because I know that. I cannot morally stomach this system, it's a joke to claim its democratic, and AMERICA DELENDA EST. this country is a plague on this Earth

trying very hard not to think about how in Gwen's prologue, she's always hues of blue and green and at odds with her pink reddish surroundings. only when she hugs her dad they both bloom vibrantly pink

from a webcomic I’m working on, I’ll post when I finish chapter one

Fast Track

Rookie policewoman Annie Cartwright was delighted when armed gunman Reg Bennett suddenly threw down his sawn off shotgun in disgust and surrendered to her. “I’m just fed up with this caper, love,” the hardened bank robber confided in Annie as she handcuffed his wrists together securely behind his back, after leaning him up against her squad car, “I just wanna do my time and go straight.” The young woman gave the older man a gentle pat on the shoulder. “You have probably just reduced your sentence by five years, Reggie,” she told him reassuringly. The career criminal looked over his shoulder at his happy female captor and gave her a crooked smile. “And I’ve probably just fast tracked you to sergeant, eh love?” he said and winked at the future Deputy Chief Constable.

Black Woman Arrested for Helping Black Man Avoid Lynch Mob

On Sunday, October 1, 1939, Sampson County, North Carolina, Sheriff C.C. Tart arrested a young Black woman for helping Andrew Troublefield, a 21-year-old Black man, avoid being lynched.

The previous day two white women accused Mr. Troublefield of assault. Without verifying the women’s stories, Sheriff Tart led a mob of 500 white people in pursuit of Mr. Troublefield with the intention, as newspapers reported, to lynch him without trial if he was caught.

A young Black woman who saw the mob on its way shouted after Mr. Troublefield as he fled, attempting to warn him. Sheriff Tart arrested and detained this woman for her efforts. He also arrested Mr. Troublefield’s younger brother, who encouraged him to flee from the mob.  

Black people were often prosecuted or even lynched for complaining about white mob violence or assisting other Black people in avoiding lynch mobs.

Mary Turner was lynched in Georgia in 1918 for complaining about the lynching of her husband. Jim Cross condemned a lynching in Letohatchee, Alabama, in 1900, and a white mob came to his house and lynched him, his wife, and both of his children. Criminal prosecution, threat, and violence were tactics used to insulate perpetrators of racial terror lynchings from accountability.

The Sampson County lynch mob grew to over 1,000 white people. They spent over a week in the woods searching for Mr. Troublefield, until police from neighboring Wayne County arrested him on October 8. Wayne County’s chief of police transferred Mr. Troublefield directly to North Carolina’s death row, despite him being convicted of no crime at the time. Mr. Troublefield remained on death row until his trial in February. 

On February 15, 1940, Judge R. Parker sentenced Mr. Troublefield to 30 years in prison for attempted rape. The conviction rested entirely on the testimony of the two alleged victims. During the trial, white mobs stood on the courthouse lawn, demanding a more severe sentence and grumbling about “what ought to have been done” to Mr. Troublefield. Threats of violence continued as the highway patrol transported Mr. Troublefield back to Central Prison in Raleigh. Neither the Sheriff nor any of the mob leaders were ever held accountable for this attempted lynching.

Racial terror lynchings and near lynchings inflicted massive trauma on entire Black communities. White mobs acted with impunity, lynching entire families, conducting lynchings in public, and terrorizing Black people who tried to help their neighbors.

Perpetrators of these lynchings hoped to keep Black people in a state of perpetual fear and subordination. EJI has documented nearly 6,500 racial terror lynchings between 1865 and 1950, including two in Sampson County, North Carolina.

ken would hate having to do taxes

being black in fandom isn't for the faint of heart bcs u gtta deal w the same racist patterns over and over again to no end and no matter where u go they'll be there and you'll get called crazy for pointing them out

Woke up this morning smelling him in my bed and I could cry

What kind of family throws their own into jail over a miscommunication? What kind of sick twisted cunt does one have to be to toss their flesh and blood into the hands of pigs? All while not caring at all for the danger they've just put him in?

Yesterday he was going to see his kids for visitation and only hours later his own older sister had ruined his life and sabotaged it all. Now he sits in jail. He may lose all visitation to his kids, he may serve time, he may lose his job, home, and livelihood.

What kind of family could do this?

He doesn't deserve this. Fuck these people, fuck this place, fuck it all. I can't stand this. Not a bit of it. He shouldn't be locked in there rn. I know damn well he didn't do what his sister has claimed.

She's been harassing him for over a month and has said on multiple occasions she hopes he loses his kids, then this shit happens? Yeah, totally not a premeditated sabotage. Totally.

I finally found someone who values me as I am and who refuses to exploit me in any way, and now this. I had just gotten used to the feeling of falling asleep safe in someone's arms. We were about to discuss helping him move in and distance from his family. It's not fair.

This is disgusting. Mike Mendez doesn't deserve to be in jail right now. Fuck you Hobart Oklahoma and your stupid, corrupt, racially biased cops.

He should be free
