today is the only day you can reblog this

finally, it has appeared on my dash
finally, when we least expected it.

Wasn’t expecting this
I’m sorry I know this is normally just an art and rambling blog you didn’t honestly expect me to pass up reblogging The Spanish Inquisition did you? Because nobody expects the Spanish Inquisition.
This post is 13 years old, let that sink in
i couldn’t let that sink in because I would have to expect seeing it.

and nobody-
and nobody expects-
Tumblr hates trans women, this is a known fact
Like it's really not a surprise that they (staff) keep banning trans women, they hate trans women and therefore do not apply the same moderation standards they do for other blogs
When I was running the amtrak-official blog and in the closet, tumblr intervened several times as a result of the trademark filings to defend my blog, stating satire, but in May shortly after I came out as trans, I was randomly terminated for a week with no explanation given
my corner store guy is a 50 year old man who's my best friend in the world and recently he was like "you're too pretty to be single I have some nephews you should meet. very handsome!" and I was like "a niece might be more up my alley" and he just got more excited and said "ah even better! I was overselling my nephews but my nieces are very beautiful"
OP the tags!!
"holy shit that's awesome thanks" disrupts the ideology that domestic work is not worth noticing and praising and makes it easier to see and celebrate when someone else does it.
If it's awesome and impressive that I did it then it's awesome and impressive when you do it too.
Mutual support and love builds mutual support and love.
does anyone have that tweet that's like "talking to the ace hardware employee: gonna remodel an old brownstone by myself can I get the fisher price tool kit and stupid white paint"
THATS EXACTLY IT THANK YOU SO MUCH
I haven’t been on this app in a while, but I know a Black man, Keith Porter, was murdered by ICE on New Year’s Eve (Rest in Power) in Cali. Just one of the countless Black people who’ve been murdered by ICE and other agents of the state.
I log back into this app and see the conversations around the white woman, Renee Good, who was just recently killed. And I can’t help but notice the stark difference in circulation of news and boosting of stories between both of them across this app…
Shit has BEEN happening to Black people across administrations and is currently happening to Black people under this administration, and is met by crickets. Yet when it starts touching white people, I see real anger start being felt from the gen pop followed by amplification and co-opting of Black terms and memorialization… I stg it takes everything in me to give af about yall.
**Edited: linking a gfm for Keith
***update: the gfm is unavailable. Will post an updated link as soon as I have one (removing the link until then for less confusion)
*** updated gfm link verified by Keith Porter Jr’s grandfather
