Reblog If You’re Transgender, Genderqueer, Or If You Think You Could Survive Being Hit With A 14”

So wholesome, i definitely needed to share it 🫂💕

📢 mutual aid request! help needed!🌻

my partner @mongrelmeats and i are trying to survive & escape an abusive household. we are both trans and disabled and had to flee TN to avoid homelessness in a very hostile state. we moved in with abusive family members as a last resort. sadly, they subject us to regular emotional/mental abuse, manipulation, and sabotage. they have been physically abusive in the past, causing me nerve damage. the situation is not safe and our physical and mental health is suffering. our two cats and dog live with us in one room with very little space to move around. we can't eat or shower without being observed and criticized. we are rarely permitted to leave the house. i guess it's not the absolute worst situation anyone has been in, but we are desperate to get out.

our only income now comes from commissions as our car was totalled in a triple rollover accident. i was lucky and survived without major injuries. weir was lucky they were not with me at the time.

our goal is to get a cheap used car without major damages or needing major repairs. funds otherwise go to our regular survival expenses, such as medical needs and pet food. but a car would give us some independence and the ability to find work to support ourselves!

➡️our gofundme here! with more info about the situation.

prefer to buy art? ⤵️

@mongrelmeats art is our income right now. But Weir is very talented with humans, anthros, or feral ocs! They are great at translating likeness into art, and creating diverse and believable faces. they can do multiple styles too and did our fundraiser banner. Weir loves horror, fantasy, weird outsider art, and queer erotica. If that's your vibe, check them out!

I'm reblogging this because it looks important 👀

A few of these are probably referring to the date posting bug thing, but AAAAAAAAAAAH!

I write all of my posts in plain text anyway but this is very very important!!

I am not asking anymore. I am demanding.

Put plain text on your posts.

You're limiting who can view your posts.

Plain text is needed for:

1. Those who are affected by eyestrain and are visually impaired. Colored text, fancy fonts, they all make these harder for people to read,

and

2. Those who use screenreaders. Fancy symbols, especially ones from other languages, and tyoing quirks fuck screenreaders up. They can change the language, start spouting weird nonsense, or just flat out break.

There are also people who straight up get overwhelmed by all of this without being affected by these problems. Me, for example, I can read all typing quirks just fine but it's still very overwhelming.

Also, big text? There are people who already have their text on their phone set to big because they can't read, and they need plain text for big text.

If you can't provide plain text, you could always

A. ask plaintextpro (or another accessibility blog) for help

B. not format your text at all

Please don't just like this, spread it around, I'm hoping at least someone will see it and start adding plain text. (Serious)

Hey so I thought I'd introduce myself! My name is Kai and this blog is for stuff I like and my thoughts :)

I go by any pronouns and you can ask me anything!

I'm in a lot of fandoms including Sanrio, MHA/BNHA, Komi Can't Communicate and Vocaloid! :D

I do art too and I'll post it sometimes and I have a discord! It is 🌈🏳️❤️o v e r s i z e d k a i❤️🏳️🌈#1987

Anyway, just a bit about me, thanks for reading

Reading the writing side of Tumblr makes me realise that I gotta carry on writing the fanfic I left behind on wattpad. Thanks Tumblr! <3

Playing old games you played as a young kid >>>>

I'm currently playing Dumb Ways To Die and Geometry Dash Lite on my phone, the nostalgia is real 🤩👾

reblog this to pet the user you reblogged from please

You gonna do anything or make any statement about the rampant transmisogyny on this hellsite, especially in cases like predstrogen recently? Or yall gonna stay silent and keep letting/making us get pushed off of it.

I have a number of asks about this, so this is to address all of them, I won't do each individually.

We generally do not comment on individual cases, but because there seems to be mass misinformation around this, I will make an exception and comment on predstrogen.

First, Tumblr has a number of LGBT+ including trans people on staff, and they see things from the inside fully, and they're not protesting this case.

Why do we wrongly have a transphobe reputation? We did have an external contract moderator last year that was making transphobic moderation (and also selling moderation, criminally). As soon as we were aware that person was fired, and we later terminated the entire relationship with that contracting firm and have brought almost everything in-house (at great cost). I have previously commented on this publicly, several times.

I am not aware of any Automattician (people who work at Automattic and Tumblr) who has made any transphobic moderation actions. If it's reported it is investigated immediately, if anything were found that person would be terminated for cause immediately.

In predstrogen's case in addition to some mistagged sexually explicit posts, which on its own wouldn't be that bad, we have documented cases of harassment. Most importantly, and why they are banned from Tumblr for life, is they made threats of violence against Tumblr staff.

That is never okay. Threats of violence is not protected speech. We will work with police and FBI where appropriate. I just got a death threat yesterday from someone mad about predstrogen, and that account was immediately terminated.

So regardless of whether you still think Tumblr staff is somehow a bunch of transphobes, know that threats of violence or death are still not acceptable and will result in immediate and serious action. Know that when you rile people up, they can do dumb things with possibly permanent consequences.
