Hey Neil, i saw your post about Nex Benedict's petition, i was texted a schedule of vigils for Nex and I'd like to share them with you considering your larger platform could hopefully reach more Oklahomans and let those know we wont let anyone sweep this under the rug.

done

got told at lunch "you feel like Tumblr Incarnate" and i had to tell them i've been here for 13 years and counting. i was here three years before dashcon happened. i saw the mishapocalypse. i survived the gigapause. i've been here longer than the shoelaces post. i've been here since it was hipsters versus fandom and i played both sides extensively by overdoing the sepia filters on everything and making my own flashing galaxy gif edits for my fandom posts. i'm every tumblr. it's all in me

my brain does this every february, it’s fine 

it’s F I N E

PSA you don't support neurodivergent people if you shame people for being 'too much' about their special interests, 'too loud' when they're happy, 'too childish' when they're excited, 'too sensitive' when they're upset, 'too dramatic' when they're passionate about a cause, 'too obsessive' when they're trying to understand something, 'too fixed' when they're struggling to deviate from routine, 'too immature' when they rely on others to help them do things

How do you explain to older generations that trauma isn’t a competition? That their pain doesn’t diminish yours? That your hurts matter, and are deserving of acknowledgment, empathy and compassion?

guys after pushing and pushing and pushing i finally have accomodations!!!!!!!

this is your sign to push for accomodations even if you think they'll help you only a tiny bit

i do unironically think the best artists of our generation are posting to get 20 notes and 3 reblogs btw. that fanfic with like 45 kudos is some of the best stuff ever written. those OCs you carry around have some of the richest backstories and worldbuilding someone has ever seen. please do not think that reaching only a few people when you post means your art isn't worth celebrating.
