Alright people…it’s A N G R Y time! 😡
A boy was kicked out of a New Jersey movie theater after using the bathroom with his mom. This instantly made me angry because some people with high support needs do need help using the bathroom sometimes.
According to this report:
The incident began when Gallinaro’s son needed to use the bathroom and she took him into the women’s restroom. There is no family restroom at the Cinemark in Hazlet, according to the lawsuit.
“My son is not equipped to go into a men’s bathroom in a public setting alone,” Gallinaro told NJ Advance Media last week. “I took him to the women’s bathroom.”
There were other women in the restroom, some of them mothers, she said.
“Right away, they see he’s with me. They pick up why he’s in the bathroom with me,” she said, noting that she noticed one woman “looking at me smiling.”
The 59-year-old manager of the movie theater wasn’t as understanding, the suit alleges.
The manager angrily approached and “shouted blatantly discriminatory remarks” toward the mother and the 15-year-old, the lawsuit alleges.
“A grown man should not be in the women’s restroom,” the manager said in the crowded lobby, according to the suit. “This is not a transgender bathroom.”
Even though there were no other complaints, the manager allegedly ordered the Gallinaros off the property and directed an assistant manager to call the police, the suit states.
This is complete discrimination. Please reblog this to help spread the word. This can’t keep happening.

still adding things to this but i hope everyone in the gen v fandom that isn’t a weirdo and doesn’t support this type of behavior will actually protect themselves from this manipulative bitch and block her for your own safety and wellbeing.
thank you to everyone who messaged me proof and contributed to this documentation exposing heronamedhawks (and breckstonevailskier) for blatant racism, misogynoir (hatred of Black women), transphobia, fake victimhood, gaslighting, and more.
update (2/11/24): hawks has deleted!
Tumblr media
update: (2/19/24): hawks is back on twitter. same account but different user. is also likely back on tumblr at url “not-again-bestie”

The ResortingToDanger.com website is now back up and fully functional at https://red.girldetective.org. The only thing that seems to be missing is the VirtualTour.swf. I cannot find that but if anyone has it and would like to contribute it; I'd be very grateful! Instead I replaced the tour with a video of me playing the RED demo. Not exactly the same, but better than an empty space.

DJTober 2023: A Monthly Fan Creation Challenge
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Introducing, a new Fan Art/Fan Fiction Challenge for the Month of October 2023!
Links: Archive of Our Own and Spotify Playlist.
I always like monthly fanfiction and fan art challenges in certain months that create new work and get the creative flow going. So I decided I wanted to make my own challenge that anyone could join.
Information and Text version of Prompts under the cut:
So what is DJTober? It is a challenge where you can draw or write based on random songs and verses as the daily prompts. I picked the name because it was different and I think Songtober was already taken. You can either post fan art or write fanfic or create a gif or anything that you feel like creating! Will this be a thing? Who knows? Will I make a side blog for this? It depends. Either way, I'm going to try this challenge myself and share it with others.
A couple of things to note:
In order for me to see your work on your platform (either Tumblr or AO3), please use the tags: #DJTober and #DJTober2023.
You can write a one-shot or multiple chapters, one fandom or multiple, and dark/whump/NSFW are allowed as well. Just make sure to tag appropriately and be mindful of triggers/content warnings.
Having said that, I do not allow things like pedophilia or similar in the works. I will immediately remove it and/or take drastic measures if need be.
Your fic can either be inspired by the song itself or by the suggested verse in the picture, or a different lyric of your choice. You can even have someone say the lyric in a quote. Your fic does not have to be a songfic.
You do not have to go in order of the list and you can start as early or late as you want. Just be aware that the collection that is opened now will remain unmoderated until the end of the first week of November.
Without further ado, here are the prompts:
Life's no fun without a good scare. (This Is Halloween from Nightmare Before Christmas)
2) All of your time spent keeps us alive. (Larger Than Life by Backstreet Boys)
3) Think of it as my desire for you. (Chant from Hadestown)
4) Tell me you love me in private. (Montero (Call Me By Your Name) by Lil Nas X)
5) I'm wearing my heart like a crown, pretending that you're still around. (The Great Pretender by The Platters)
6) I'm far renowned in the underground and you can't take that from me. (Land of the Dead by Voltaire)
7) Because you're mine. (I Put A Spell On You, either Screamin' Jay Hawkins or the Hocus Pocus version)
8) No one else takes care of me. (Independent Women, pt 1 by Destiny's Child)
9) Just what to do. Help them to help you. (The Pitiful Children from Be More Chill)
10) Talk so pretty, but your heart got teeth. (Teeth by 5 Seconds of Summer)
11) Go ahead and kick it up a notch if your life is at a level too low. (Kick It Up A Notch from Starkid's Starship)
12) Don't have the heart to live in the fast lane. (Worthless from The Brave Little Toaster)
13) And no one's gonna save you from the beast about to strike. (Thriller by Michael Jackson)
14) May your feet serve you well and the rest be sent to Hell. (Let's Kill Tonight by Panic! At The Disco)
15) This plant is talking to you. (Sominex/Suppertime II from Little Shop of Horrors)
16) Your beauty never ever scared me. (Mary on a Cross by Ghost)
17) Music and passion were always the fashion at the Copa. Don't fall in love. (Copacabana by Barry Manilow)
18) Part of life's eternal rhyme. (Mother Earth and Father Time from Charlotte's Web)
19) You can't reason with a headless man. (The Headless Horseman, any version)
20) With a taste of poison paradise. (Toxic by Britney Spears)
21) Ain't it the sweetest noises in town, that beautiful sound? (That Beautiful Sound from Beetlejuice the Musical)

If you have any additional questions, feel free to contact me. Please reblog to spread the word!

To celebrate the third year since it’s release since September 2nd, 2019, I am happy to host an anniversary contest to further support our love for this show and all it has done to touch so many people!
The contest will be open all of September and will conclude the night of September 30th. The contest is open to all ages, skill level, and geographic regions, regardless of previous activity in the SU fandom or how long you have been a fan of the show.

2. All content submitted must be original work. Absolutely no copying/stealing another artist’s work, or you will be immediately disqualified. Using clips directly from the show for the purpose of video editing is okay
3. Entries that were already posted on your account more than 1 month ago will not be accepted. In other words, anything made and posted after August 1st is okay to submit.
4. Entries will be judged on originality, impact, and creativity, with a few bonus points given for technicality and relevance to the movie. This means if you have a creative idea for a character who wasn’t a major focus of the movie, but is in the main show, you are welcome to do it- you will only miss out on a few bonus points.
5. There are no other rules. Canon, non-canon, AU’s, shipping, sfw, nsfw - anything is on the table. If you want to know if something is okay to do, the answer is probably yes, but you’re welcome to ask me directly.

When you are ready to submit your entry, please submit the file directly to my inbox with your username, age, media type, and a link to your profile so I can point others to your page if you win. I will not post these submissions, and they’ll be deleted after the contest is over, so please feel free to then post your work on your own preferred platform to get proper credit.
The contest ends at the end of the month on September 30th, at midnight PST. I will announce winners the night of October 1st.
Feel free to send me any questions or concerns. Reblogging this post or sharing it to other platforms outside of tumblr would be extremely helpful.

I donated blood today and the lady who did my screening mentioned they're in desperate need of O+ blood donations. So if you're in Canada and have been thinking of donating, please do so! O+ blood is the most common type, and there is always a desperate need.

Hello everyone,
Someone is studying at university and is working on an ACC app for their dissertation. It would be greatly appreciated if you all could share/take part of this questionnaire.
It would be nice if this is reblogged too, so it can reach more people.
Thank you in advance everyone. :)

I know it seems like striking on social media might not do enough, but as someone who has been outright obsessively using the internet since I was a child to the point that it is literally woven in my soul, been active and involved in online activism for about five years, and been using social media as marketing for about the same amount of time, I can confidently say that
THIS FUCKING WORKS!!
People base their entire businesses on their success on social media. They look at trending topics on twitter and don't see bite sized chunks of culture distilled to its finest and worst moments, they see market data! They don't see you as a single human being, they see you as a data point among thousands run through a probably AI assisted system that's prone to fucking up, that determines everything they're going to do.
How they're going to advertise, who they target it with it, what the general public wants. Every single major corporation uses data from social media websites to do this. Every. Single. One. Social media is a lot of things, and one of those things is a tool for business and politics. We know for a fact that social media politics bleeds out into the real world very fucking quickly.
Even if you can't strike financially, even if you have to go to work or school to survive, striking on social media is one of the best things you can do. Even if it's quiet. People are going to notice when thousands upon thousands of users across various sites go completely dark, and even more when some of them start getting real fucking loud about this. The US Capitalist Infused Government loves sweeping war crimes under the rug once they think the general public has forgotten about their atrocities and fallen into complacency. This system has been doing this for literal centuries.
Social media is just the newest and most expansive form we as a species have developed in the ongoing invention of ways to express our thoughts about things. It's the weirdest one, that's for sure, but executives pay attention to it. They don't often seek to understand it beyond a very basic level, because as I said, they view us as numbers on a screen, not as multifaceted incredibly and deeply fucked human beings. They do not seek to understand us on a personal level unless they think the cost of it won't outweigh the potential profit.
Pattern recognition is the tool of the moment. Machine Learning. Gathering endless amounts of data so we can replicate human existence through machines. You may think that social media strikes are ineffective because social media is just on the internet and it's "not real", but it is real! You are really doing stuff! You are contributing! Even if you're just lurking! Basic amounts of engagement can make a huge impact in a busted algorithm. Maybe you're not someone who would ever be drafted into an actual war-zone due to physical or mental health conditions, but you are probably a part of a key demographic of people that businesses are absolutely hungry for.
The budding adult has always been the target of greedy capitalists basically since this system was established and continued to get worse over time. The stage of your life when you are in the age range of 18-25 is an incredibly important transitional period, followed by a transitional period every six months until you lose sense of what six months even is because you haven't been happy in eight, and if you're in the 18-25 range currently, you got extra fucked by the pandemic. The world is in a turbulent stage and we are at the center of all of it and have been since 2001. Every single social media marketing expert will tell you the 18-25 demographic of social media users is a target demographic, because they are the most prone to extremes due to a life chock full of them.
We have to remember to be human, but we have to also know how to speak their language. They just see us as numbers? Let's show them some fucking numbers. Make posts about Gaza trend on every platform you have your hands on. Even if it's just liking posts, that gives them a slight boost in the algorithm. Commenting on posts is especially important on sites like Twitter and Instagram. But across every site the most important thing to do is reblog/retweet/share/send/copy link, whatever it is for that site, it is the biggest thing that everyone, and I mean EVERYONE looks at.
From a humble artist to a head of marketing at a billion dollar corporation about to have a meeting with a barely over 21 intern about how they need to run the twitter account, to said intern bumbling their way through adulthood with a job they only feel they're good at because they've been using social media since Skype was invented. We need to be loud, we need to make sure this can't be ignored, we can't sweep this under the rug. Mass media, especially coming out of the West, has been trying to censor, de-sanitize, and keep this issue quiet.
DO NOT LET YOURSELF BE SILENCED
There are tens of thousands of DEAD CHILDREN who have been BOMBED while in CIVILIAN AREAS and that is a FUCKING WAR CRIME.
THIS IS A GENOCIDE
Say that as many times as you can. Do not let it be ignored. A silent populous is a complacent one. Use your voice, even as small as it may seem. Make noise. Be loud. Be annoying. Don't let this be ignored. Talk about it everywhere you go. Do not let this be ignored.
Sometimes even we get disconnected from the real people around us. We base our sense of worth as a person based on the numbers going up or down but instead of developing a gambling addiction we just got angry about it but still fall into it because of cultural conditioning. But even if you only have let's say, completely random example, 70 followers. And only a small percent of them will see your post. Let's say maybe 20 on average, 30 on a good day, and even higher based on the machinations of fate. That's still 20 people who took time out of their day to read something you wrote, process something you created, share a part of your experience of living.
And likely they felt compelled to share it too, therefore increasing the spread of people who feel your influence. 20 people may not seem like a lot, but that has a major impact. Now imagine posts into the hundreds, thousands, hundreds of thousands and even millions. Those aren't just numbers. Each and every single one of those is just another person who might have reblogged a post because someone they like shared it, or because they wanted to spread its message, and that simple act causes a single post to have massive waves of effects from simple ripples.
Don't let yourself be discouraged. Don't think your voice or your impact "isn't enough to matter." Everything counts.
Don't let this be ignored. Don't become complacent. Know that every little thing counts, and to do every little thing you can.

LGBTQ CONTENT ALERT
Support the folks who make the content we crave
Producer of QL and BL content, Korea's Strongberry is small but scrappy and brought the world a lot more content than you might expect. The CEO had a live session a little while ago, and it was reposted with English subtitles yesterday. Among the takeaways: they have a lot more interest from actors than they used to. Also, some of the content they have distributed was produced by others but needed a distribution outlet, so they are clearly a part of the ecosystem that might not otherwise exist.
It's nice and short, and he says there will be a live session with the actors during March (date TBD). Watch this and drive up the stats! Make their investors realize they have a great audience! 😀
Above all, check out their other content on Gagaoolala and YouTube.

#RAINBOWROAD for Rainbow Railroad Charity Drive Redux Pre-Orders are open!
I am so excited to announce that I am taking preorders for copies of the entire #RAINBOWROAD trilogy starting today! Preorders will be open starting today, February 14th (happy Valentine's!) to March 13th. It will close at 11:59 MST.
Please reblog so we can spread the news!!!!
>>PRE-ORDER HERE<<
Tumblr media
This past summer, I did a print run of the first part of the series, Sit Tight, Take Hold and printed 94 copies for charity. Many readers asked for books 2 & 3, and I had many others express interest in a 3-part bundle who missed the first run. I've spent November, December, and January prepping the next parts for print, and I'm so excited to share them with you.
So, what is included?
Option for a 3-book bundle including:
Book 1: Sit Tight Take Hold 424 pages on matte 80lb text paper, color printing throughout. Cover has matte lamination in color. Dimensions of the book are 6x9x.93. Weight ~2 lbs Art by Blairamok (See cover art above)
Book 2: How do you solve a problem like Ezira?, Accept a Little Spin, and Oh, there's a long way to go 408 pages on matte 80lb text paper, color printing throughout. Cover has matte lamination in color. Dimensions of the book are 6x9x.93. Weight ~2 lbs Art by DustandHalos (cover art below)
Book 3: Fools Rush In and bonus content, 0-60 in 3.5 468 pages on matte 80lb text paper, color printing throughout. Cover has matte lamination in color. Dimensions of the book are 6x9x1.06. Weight ~2lbs Art by Pyracantha (cover art below)
PDF copies of all three parts
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Option for a 2-book bundle including only Parts 2 & 3 + PDF copies. This is an option for people who already own the first book.
Limited option for Part 1 discounted damaged books (15 available). This does not include PDFs. These books have cosmetic damage to the covers from shipping. Damage does no affect the print quality of the text.
Limited postcards that were extras from the first run (only 8 available)
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Remaining Corvette Crowley posters, including A/B grade options, 12x18".
Tumblr media
$20 PDFs of all stories that will include all the formatting of the print run and cover art! (Screenshots from the PDF proofs below)
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Where are the proceeds going?
Tumblr media
Rainbow Railroad is a North American-based organization that works globally to ensure safety and asylum to LGBTQIA+ individuals. This is the same charity we donated to last time, and it was a resounding success. Last time, we were able to fundraise $1,600!
Continued FAQ below:
How much does shipping cost?
For US residents, bundles will cost a flat fee of $10. They will ship via media mail through USPS.
For anyone outside of the US, shipping has been estimated through the cheapest carrier, either USPS or UPS minus $10. Unfortunately, I cannot control the cost of shipping, and I know that it is extraordinarily high. The bundles will weigh anywhere between 4-6+ lbs, which is expensive to ship.
Wait, I'm from the US. Why am I paying more for Media Mail?
While Media Mail typically would cost $4-6, the increased price is to offset international orders, whose shipping will cost anywhere from $20-60 with the discount. I hope you understand. I want to make this as accessible as I can without personally eating any costs. I am not making any profit off of this project.
When do orders ship?
Once pre-orders close on 3/13, I will order the books. There is typically a 2-4 week turn around for them to be printed and delivered to me. I then have to package and ship everything from my house. I hope to have everything shipped 1 month after pre-orders close, but I am only human.
US mail should take 2-8 days. International orders can take anywhere from 2-4 weeks, so please be patient.
If you are only ordering a damaged copy or postcards, both of which have already been printed, I will ship those out sooner.
When do I get my PDFs?
The PDFs and book proofs are the same, and they are 90% done. PDFs will be delivered via email by me once pre-orders close. I am still doing small changes and edits to make sure they are perfect!
If I order a bundle, do I also need to order PDFs if I want digital copies?
NO! PDFs are included with the bundles and only the bundles. You will not have access to them immediately, only once pre-orders close and I email them to you! Like I said, they are 90% finished, and I am stilling making small adjustments. (Kerning, I loathe you!)
What percent of proceeds are going to Rainbow Railroad?
100%! This excludes the cost of printing and shipping. For reference, the first print run cost $1,254 for the books alone, not including shipping and packaging supplies. Anything remaining goes directly to charity. I am not keeping any costs for labor or making any profit on this.
Wait, there's bonus content?
Remember when I said I was done after the trilogy? Well, @tut557 popped into the Discord server and said, 'Hey, what if they played Mario Kart...' This spiraled into a long conversation about all the different media promos they might do, and then I spent this past November writing another 50k of the #RAINBOWROAD universe for NaNoWriMo. This is also available on AO3, and I will be posting weekly while preorders are open. You can find it here.
