Today, November 20, is the Trans Day of Remembrance, a day to memorialize those who have been murdered as a result of transphobia.
We honor those who found the courage to be true to themselves in the face of transphobia.
Although I am not trans myself, day in and day out, your stories have given me the courage to live life to the fullest and not let adversity and homophobia be my downfall.
Those whose lives were taken shall never be forgotten for they are still among us. They are the very foundation of our community. We are not just a collection of random queer individuals. We have come together with a purpose. There is still a long way to go. We must look up to our trans siblings who were true to themselves despite being condemned, hated on, and taken away from us, and draw courage from them.
Violence and transphobia will never win. Community, truth, and acceptance shall prevail.
In your footsteps of truth and courage I shall follow. Now and always.
Thank you.
Rest in peace.
I made a spicy meme for you all

Dear friends of Tumblr,
Today at my school we had an assembly about internet predators and when I had said that most of my true friends are over the internet and they gave me a lecture about how “I don’t know who I’m talking to” blah blah. So please, if you aren’t a predator in any way, please reblog so i can prove a point.
ever just liked on a post so fast you accidentally clicked twice and ends up unliking it?
and then realizing you messed up and quickly clicking like again except you clicked too fast and then you unliked it-
and then you try and like it again except you-

Not to be cringe but *enjoys my interests in a fun, harmless little way that makes me happy*
a special shoutout to this turtle who was absolutely vibing on my wheat crops the other day
Traditional forestry is so fascinating actually. Humans used to be much more invested in sustainable practices*, and they got creative about it.
Take coppicing. Coppicing is wild, ya’ll. Young trees get repeatedly cut down so that they regenerate with extra limbs. You know, like a freaking hydra.
This doesn’t harm the trees. In fact, since a regularly coppiced tree stays in the juvenile stage, this effectively makes the tree IMMORTAL, unable to be touched by age and the ravages of time. Also coppicing has been practiced since literal prehistory and has a lot of ecological benefits. In return, humans get a theoretically infinite supply of wood from one tree, instead of having to plant new ones.
tldr if you cut off a tree’s head it will grow more heads like a hydra and become functionally immortal.

What to do if you suddenly find yourself homeless
FOOD
Find your nearest food bank or mission, for food
grocery stores with free samples, bakeries + stores with day-old bread
different fast food outlets have cheaper food and will generally let you hang out for a while.
some dollar stores carry food like cans of beans or fruit
SHELTER
Sleeping at beaches during the day is a good way to avoid suspicion and harassment
sleep with your bag strapped to you, so someone can’t steal it
Some churches offer short term residence
Find your nearest homeless shelter
Look for places that are open to the public
A large dumpster near a wall can often be moved so that flipping up the lids creates an angled shelter to stay dry
HYGIENE
A membership to the YMCA is usually only 10$, which has a shower, and sometimes laundry machines and lockers.
Public libraries have bathrooms you can use
Dollar stores carry low-end soaps and deodorant etc.
Wet wipes are all purpose and a life saver
Local beaches, go for a quick swim
Some truck stops have showers you can pay for
Staying clean is the best way to prevent disease, and potentially get a job to get back on your feet
Pack 7 pairs of socks/undies, 2 outfits, and one hooded rain jacket
OTHER
first aid kit
sunscreen
a travel alarm clock or watch
mylar emergency blanket
a backpack is a must
downgrade your cellphone to a pay as you go with top-up cards
sleeping bag
travel kit of toothbrush, hair brush/comb, mirror
swiss army knife
can opener

Writing is like you’ve found a garden that’s overgrown and unusable.
First you have to cut through to make a path.
Sometimes you’re going to come across a tree or an obstacle, so you’ll have to start a new path or do around it.
You’re going to get tired. You’re going to want to give up.
Eventually you’ll have to go back. Clean up the path. Remove some junk.
Then you’ll bring in the decoration. The bird bath. The flowers.
To finish you’ll add a nice bench and sit down to watch the world you created.
But first you just have to clear a path.
I want kids but giving birth is a no for me! It terrifies me not only as a woman but a black woman.
Why does being black make it scarier for you?

“[Name] is offended and overreacted to something I said, and it’s all their fault for being a ‘snowflake’. They blocked me lol.”
If you sound like this, stop and think.
The term “offended” in these situations is usually being used to mock people reacting out of fear. And it’s usually used on minorities.
If someone was “offended” by something you said, and blocked you as a result, it’s usually because they’re terrified that you acted against their rights as a human being. They’re scared of you for believing, and/or parroting, hate-speech related things that have lead to them getting killed in the past (and even the present.) When death has happened, and is still happening, “edgy hate speech” is no longer a joke. (Not that it ever was in the first place.) It could mean you’re a threat. Even if it’s online, the fight or flight response of hearing these things shouldn’t have to be tolerated.
So yes, TLDR;
If you make fun of someone’s understandably harsh reaction to you being a bigot - you’re an asshole. You’re nauseating, and insensitive,
and you deserved the block.
This. Actually. No cap.
I used to had to deal with people who go ‘Oh and then they just leave me on seen wow’ and its even more frustrating when I did not mean to leave them on seen, I just had something to do and I was going to come back to you later. I had to apologise so many times for doing things in my own life and whoops I looked at your messages when I wasn’t ready to reply yet, please don't hate me I’ll do better.
No. Just, no. Stop. I don’t need to be anxious about this when I already have an unlimited amount of other things to be anxious about. I’m done.
Get rid of "Read" indicators on all messengers ever lol
I’d write sumn like “Dreamside” and the spell check would go “Excuse me, excuse- do you mean dream side?”
Then I’d lock gazes with it and say “no.” and it’ll instantly shuffle back and start to learn the word ‘Dreamside’ because I am the writer and I am God here.
The ‘add to dictionary’ button on MS word is such a power move like I don’t care if it’s a real word or not, you stupid little software, you will learn the word Quinjet and that’s that on that

It’s kinda cool how someone can just pop into your life all of a sudden and become so important to you within such a small amount of time. I think that’s what makes life so interesting though. There’s always a reason to be hopeful for the future because you never know what good things will come your way next.
@danidonovan has signed her name at the bottom right of her artwork. Please give her blog a follow for more information on ADHD. 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
I also pull a lot of my information from additudemag.com. Thankfully, we’re learning more about ADHD every day!
Also, remember, that people without this diagnosis can experience these symptoms, as well. ADHD is more chronic and a daily struggle.
Happy ADHD awareness month all 🤗
