DONATE HERE

Cathy Brennan, radical “feminist” terrorist, has set her sights on a young black activist in Baltimore County, MD. Phylicia Sampson is being taken to court by Brennan, a notorious harasser of trans women and their supporters. Sampson is a recent college grad with few resources, no car and no way to fight back without your help.

As a community, we’ve suffered Brennan’s assaults for a long time—her blog is the best known for outing trans women’s personal information. She believes trans women are men who are infiltrating the feminist community and expends her resources fighting them. The idea that she is now taking her harassment to a legal venue is horrifying. That she has selected a young black woman with few resources to fight back is repugnant.

We can’t let Cathy Brennan get away with this! Share Phylicia’s campaign on Facebook, twitter, tumblr and instagram. Here are some things you can do TODAY to help:

Tell your friends why it is important that they donate to this campaign.

This is downright appalling.

Help Support Mindy and Krista's legal fund-Fighting for Equality:

Our 16 yr. old lesbian foster child was removed from our home due to our sexual orientation. We are fighting to get her back. Can you help? The homophobic birth mother of our 16 year old lesbian foster daughter went to the state of Kansas and fought to have her removed from our home solely due to our sexual orientation. Our foster daughter wants to be in our home and has flourished with us. We love her like she is one of our own and we want to fight to whatever lengths we can to get her back. This is about equality and it’s about doing what is in the best interest of this child. Due to confidentiality, I can’t include a picture of our foster child; the picture I am using is a picture of myself, my partner, and my daughter.

PLEASE - if you can’t help, reblog. These ladies are awesome parents, and they deserve to continue to be the safe, nurturing home that this young lady has needed.

Signal boosting!

metal, pop, and innocence: diva-viva: the other day one of my friends mentioned that they were...:

diva-viva:

the other day one of my friends mentioned that they were kind of afraid to hang out with me without other people around bcs they did not know what to do in the event of a seizure, so i feel like i should spread some general knowledge. did u know that seizure first aid is misrepresented about 80% of the time on tv? not cool right

HERE ARE SOME FACTS and then there are no excuses you have to hang out with me

stuff u should do for generalized tonic/clonic seizures i.e. grand mals:

1. try to speak and act in a calm, reassuring manner, inform people nearby they should do the same—no yelling or screaming or general freaking out. i know it’s scary and u don’t want me to get hurt, ty i appreciate, but there is a pretty good chance i am going to be in a state of complete panic and terror, and it’s v. helpful to know someone is there for me and knows what to do

2. clear area of sharp/hard objects and help me lie down

3. if i have glasses? remove them. if i’m wearing a tie? loosen it.

4. put something soft under my head lol yes u probably aren’t carrying a pillow around so like a jacket or something is fine

5. gently turn me on my side that will help keep my airway clear

6. stay with me until i am fully awake, be friendly and reassuring as i return to consciousness again i know u are scared, but don’t worry in the game of scared i have won there is no middle ground

7. time my seizure! if it lasts more than 5 min, if i appear to have difficulty breathing, if my recovery seems slow, if i have a second seizure, if i appear to be in pain or injured as i awake, call 911 (or whatever the number for your emergency service is) this addendum is here bcs fucking health insurance is fucking terrible. IF U KNOW SOMEONE HAS A SEIZURE DISORDER pls ask what they prefer u to do in the event of a seizure

8. if i still seem confused/out of it, offer to call a friend or family member to come get me, or call a taxi

and there is also!

stuff u should not do:

1. DO NOT TRY TO RESTRAIN ME OR STOP MY MOVEMENTS

2. DO NOT STICK ANYTHING IN MY MOUTH i promise it’s physically impossible for me to swallow my tongue

3. DO NOT OFFER ME FOOD OR DRINK UNTIL I AM FULLY CONSCIOUS AND AWARE

BUT WAIT THERE’S MORE

stuff u should do for absence seizures (usually manifests as blank staring, loss of awareness, involuntary facial movements like blinking or chewing:

1. speak calmly and reassuringly

2. gently guide me away from and block access to dangers, again DO NOT PHYSICALLY RESTRAIN ME

3. if i appear agitated, stay some distance away, but still close enough to protect me if need be yy u are gonna be my knight in shining armor frand

4. stay with me until i am fully conscious and alert, offer to call whomever etc etc

yup those were some facts. and there are many more kinds of seizures, they come in all flavors. these are just the ones i am personally familiar with! so if you want to know more, always always ask your frand, they will probably appreciate knowing that u are there looking out for them

On reactions to her weight loss:
I find it funny that people now come up to me and say, ‘Wow, you are absolutely gorgeous’. I’m like, ‘I was beautiful before I lost weight. Egotistically speaking, I thought I was amazing’

-Raven Symone

This quote. Exactly why I dislike before and afters. Why are you to judge a woman solely on her appearance, and deem her as ‘beautiful’ after she has lost the weight? Beauty is not defined by a low weight.

i have rebloged this 20million times and i will do it again

this. Raven was my role model for my lil fat self in grade school. Beautiful then, Beautiful now.

I don’t really see why -everything- is being called a ‘revolution’ now, but this is important nonetheless.

I think it’s more accurate to say that people are beginning to call for revolution— until a government or ideological shift actually occurs there hasn’t been a revolution (not that I know all the details of what’s happening in Brazil or Turkey).

Whatever it is I hope it gains momentum and spreads worldwide.

tbmulr:

okay kida doesnt get enough love around here so here’s the lowdown on my fav disney princess

kidagakash nedakh

she’s roughly 8,500 years old, but she appears about 28

she’s a WARRIOR PRINCESS who becomes a WARRIOR QUEEN

she watched her mother die when she was a toddler

shes the only (i repeat ONLY) disney princess to become queen

she didnt become queen from marriage, the crown was passed on to her after her father died

the reason she is a warrior princess is because the voice actess (cree summer) intimidated the creators

she was the first original disney princess, not taken from an adaption or legend

shes basically a bad ass chick who had an entire civilization’s survival on her shoulders and doesnt get the credit she deserves

always been my fave

She’s the best.

This fundraiser is at a complete standstill

13 days is not long to raise $3,681 but it can still be done.

When a post like this got a signal boost with over 3,000 notes, around $4,000 was raised in just a couple of days.

If that same amount of people donated just $1 we’d reach the goal in no time.

Hundreds of fans donating just $1 will get us there.

Please donate and reblog

Thanks :)
