Good morning! I’m salty.
I think we, as a general community, need to start taking this little moment more seriously.
This, right here? This is asking for consent. It’s a legal necessity, yes, but it is also you, the reader, actively consenting to see adult content; and in doing so, saying that you are of an age to see it, and that you’re emotionally capable of handling it.
You find the content you find behind this warning disgusting, horrifying, upsetting, triggering? You consented. You said you could handle it, and you were able to back out at any time. You take responsibility for yourself when you click through this, and so long as the creator used warnings and tags correctly, you bear full responsibility for its impact on you.
“Children are going to lie about their age” is probably true, but that’s the problem of them and the people who are responsible for them, not the people that they lie to.
If you’re not prepared to see adult content, created by and for adults, don’t fucking click through this. And if you do, for all that’s holy, don’t blame anyone else for it.
ma’khia bryant was a 16 year old Black girl who called the police for help as she was getting mugged but was shot and killed with no warning minutes before the verdict for derek chauvin’s case was announced. here is the official gofundme for ma’khia, organized by her family. please boost this post and donate if you can.
Never Forget the Reign of Terror waged against Muslims (and by extension, Sikhs profiled as being Muslim) in the nearly two decades following 9/11.
I'm back everyone
HAPPY BIRTHDAY LIAM PAYNE!
i will be taking a break from tumblr for the summer so there’s nothing new here until september. have a great summer everyone!
does anyone else see taylor swift’s “the way i loved you” as a sort of lesbian pride anthem? notice that she talks about her boyfriend and says she has no feelings for him even though he’s perfect, but she really loved this other person and felt roller coaster feelings for them (she never specified the gender of her ex, so that’s why i sort of think of it as a lesbian pride anthem.)
I am in no way saying that Taylor Swift is gay and that is none of my business, I’m basically just saying that I love that song.
Same disabled anon again: apology accepted. I recommend looking at disability blogs by disabled people as a good starting point. The community is really diverse, so there's a lot to learn! Best of luck :)
Oh thanks! I know it's so diverse, people with disabilities are very diverse, even more diverse than those without disabilities. There are all different types and levels of abilities as well as all different kinds of people, Black, Asian, white, Hispanic, and all other colors and ethnicity, plus I know it crosses over with LGBTQ+. I already looked at some stories from those with learning disabilities such as dyslexia and ADHD, and I will definitely look at blogs by disabled people.
Thank you again, anon, for teaching me so much about the disabled community!
As a disabled person, I must ask that you think twice before posting stuff like that? Disabled isnt a bad word. We dont have to be sweet and angelic to deserve basic human rights. We dont need to find love in an abled-normative way. We can speak for ourselves, thank you. Listen to actual disabled people instead of infantilizing them and maybe you'll learn to see us as People. *you* are part of the problem. I wish you all the best in educating yourself, since I'm sure malice wasn't your intention
Oh! I'm so sorry if I offended you (or anyone). I know I should educate myself more. I have met some people with special needs/disabilities, but I know I was over-generalizing it. I have a slight disability myself and I was just sharing my experiences and my point of view on things I have experienced having a disability. I can tell you I definitely see you as people, NOT objects or infants. And you definitely deserve basic human rights. I agree with everything you said there and I'm very sorry if I said some things the wrong way. I think maybe you took some of the things I said differently than I thought people would. Definitely, malice is not my intention and I can assure you that I have only good intentions and I am only trying to help people with disabilities. You definitely educated me and gave me a different perspective on disabilities, so thank you for that. I will definitely educate myself more!
Freedom will never come unless it is inclusive!
you know what really sucks? when people with special needs say that they have a disability because they have been told that their whole lives. I guess it doesn’t bother them, and if it doesn’t that’s fine. But if you’re made fun of and told that you have a disability, know that you are perfect just the way you are and there are people who will love you just the way you are. You just have to find them. And even the word disability sucks because it’s focusing on what people can’t do, instead of what they can do. I’ve met people with special needs. Sure, there were some things they couldn’t do, but they are some of the kindest people I’ve ever met. They just have the biggest hearts and most positive attitudes. If you have befriended someone with special needs, you know what I’m talking about. And if you have you are a wonderful human being who has done what most people don’t dare to do. Honestly, the way people just ignore those who are differently-abled is just heartbreaking.
Some of the worst (and most widely believed) bullshit that’s put out there is that people with special needs are incapable of romantic love and/or sexual attraction. Yes, people with special needs need extra help. But they can fall in love, just the same as those without special needs. And with the right person, they can have a long, happy life with their partner.
I wish he wouldn’t smoke :(
find someone who looks at you the way zayn looks at liam
also: if you know the answer to this comment down below. in the hashtags if you write ziam it suggests that you put ziam manip. is that short for ziam manipulation or is manip another ship name for them, like a cross between payne and malik?
sorry if thats a stupid question
reblog this post if you are a member of the lgbtq+ community or you know someone who is!

i’ve talked about before you can read that here if you want to know more
I really don’t mean to guilt trip anyone, but the word needs to be spread about Palestine and no major news outlets are covering it. Hundreds of Palestinians are being injured by the Israeli Occupation forces trying to defend their homes from settler violence and ethnic cleansing.
For the past month lynch mobs and anti-Palestinian pogroms have filled the streets of Jerusalem, this is an extension of over 70 years of ethnic cleansing, dispossession, occupation, settler colonialism, and murder that has effected Palestinians, and Israeli courts have ordered the eviction of 12 Palestinian families in Sheikh Jarrah and to hand over their land to Israeli settlers. If you are American, this is what your tax dollars are going to, the least you can do is spread the word and voice your support for us.

People. Are. Dying. PLEASE REBLOG! And donate if you can!
Look, I know a good number of you are from the US and things aren't amazing there either, but my country is literally on the brink of collapse. So I'd love it if we could talk about that for a minute.
If you can't do anything else, please just read and reblog.
A second COVID wave has taken out the healthcare system. There are no more hospital beds. There's an oxygen shortage. There's a critical vaccine shortage. The Central Government has thrown its hands up and is passing the baton to the State Governments to do what they can.
There are over 16 million covid cases. A record 330,000 new cases reported yesterday - comparable to the US at its peak. 187,000 dead as of today.
There is no plan.
Mass cremations are taking place. The cremation grounds are running day and night and they are short on wood. People are watching their loved ones die while waiting for a hospital bed, and then they're unable to give them the proper burial rights.
Hospitals are overwhelmed. Patients are being confined, two to a bed. They're the lucky ones.
We are on the verge of people dying in the streets.
This is the second-most populous country in the world. The largest democracy. A country that encapsulates over 15,000 years of recorded human history and has endured everything from famine to invasion to colonisation.
We might be at the end. This might be the thing that does us in.
People are dying.
People are dying.
People are dying and there is no plan.
More good news? Variants are popping up. A double mutation strain has shown up. It is resistant to current vaccines. This will not go away. This is the devastation they warned of when the anti-maskers were out protesting the minor inconvenience of covering their face in public.
My country is on the verge of an emergency state. Our government has failed us. This is as dire a situation as it ever could be.
Look. I don't do much with my life. I write fics, some of you have read them and that's pretty much it. I spend my days with my head in the clouds because that's where I like to be.
But two days ago, my grandmother tested positive, had to be taken to hospital and the ambulance caught fire.
She barely made it to the urgent care she needs.
So, here I am, using whatever meager platform I have to cobble this request together. Because I have to do something.
If you can, donate.
Or spread the word.
Help. Please.
not sure if i just ship these two because i sort of relate to liam and i have a huge crush on zayn or if i ship them because i think they’re a cute couple
au where Liam is a student who is helplessly in love with his unbelievably gorgeous English teacher Mr Zayn Malik.
neither have i zayn
Zayn: After a couple slices if pizza, Niall burst into tears and says, "My mouth wants more, but my tummy doesn't"!
Zayn: I've never related to anything more.
yep. you’re right.
it took ABBA 35 years to reunite and if you think I’ll sit here and wait 35 years for one direction to do the same you’re dead right
