Hello,
My name is CJ and I’m a trans man. I grew up in a small town in North Carolina and I still live there today. My dad is a Chilean immigrant and he came to this country when he was only 8, spending most of his life in the beautiful land of Puerto Rico. My mom grew up in Florida (where I was born) and has mainly Irish ancestry. I have two older brothers, both in college. One attends Juilliard, the other UNCC. Most of my friends are a part of the LGBTQ+ community. I also have friends who are children of immigrants, just like me.
When I was born, it was induced by medication and I was born 8 weeks early due to a disease my mom had contracted while pregnant with me. We both survived thanks to the doctors and nurses who helped my mom deliver me safely. Due to my premature birth, I have struggled my whole life with chronic illness and disability.
I am telling you all of this because I am scared. Tomorrow is November 5th, Election Day, and depending on who wins I may be in serious danger.
Please, for the sake of me, my friends, my family, the trans community, the chronically ill, the disabled community, immigrants, immigrant families, women who need access to healthcare, and EVERY. SINGLE. American citizen…
I don’t want my rights to be taken from me.
TRUMP HAS 267 VOTES OF THE 270 VOTES NEEDED TO WIN THE WHITE HOUSE: NOOOOO KAMALA WHAT ARE YOU DOING BABYSITTING THOSE BAGS OF CHIPS?!??!??!???
That is all kinds of wrong
As someone who lost their father to cancer I feel this is very important to share. Please vote in 2024, and vote for those who care more about the people rather than bullshit politics.
(I don’t typically talk politics or world affairs but this hit me hard.)
prithee, o great destiel: bear me only pleasant news
when dawn my heart breaks cross’t
pray, sweet picture: paint on my canvasséd soul;
a message more lithe than it’s messenger-
evils turn doth evil’s turn; but one spits my eye,
the other; my shoe- pray, good messr., where you’ll run frew?
o! thine eyes to glitter falsely with dawn’s blue baubles!
o! thine hands haply to clasp in thanks, nigh yet prayer!
o! that you have len’t your knees a’fore your patron as i might the maddona in prattled comfort o’ worship!
o, dear lordship, i lay my head to thine boots, mine suit laid yet lower than the hems of your own! employ this invention of mine, brave weapon: keep up your blade; for the gnashing of dawn’s teardrops do rust all the bright swords!
bear bright pleasants; fine caites and gemstones: no such jades! thrones may be carved of jade; go to, my lord, but see you any such jade lying suit to bear waiting, to hold weight? carry, sweet lordship, tales of higher rounds in the dark valley, where beneath such roads even the pale halv’d light o’ sickened moonlit’s hope does nigh reach!
carry on those red wings of scorching sun fortune, dear destiel- wave that blue and valiant flag of sky before you, and let it cloak all the world’s stage behind!
Our ballot box got firebombed
I don’t tend to post serious stuff but the us election has made me very very worried, I’m genuinely scared for the well being of myself, being multiracial and part of the LGBT2S+ community. I beg anyone who can to vote while you can or hope this will not end in disaster.
vote blue 💙
Please vote blue so i don’t have to leave the US, i don’t wanna leave my family but i have to so i can stay safe
voting is 2 days away! Make sure to vote and if you can’t, inform friends and adults around you about voting!
are you registered to vote? You should be. And you should vote blue all the way down the ballot if you don’t want to live in a racist country. Misha Collins supports Kamala Harris so why shouldn’t you?
My mother just said "fucking Trump is God" so that's how insane his supporters are
REMINDER TO VOTE TODAY!
No, not just vote. Vote for Kamala Harris. The lives of queer, trans, afab, people of color, non-Christian religions, disabled people, literally any minority group you can think of are at stake! We can win, we can survive this. If you are an American citizen 18 or over, vote for Harris. This isn’t the time to “send a message” by not voting. This is your last chance.
The world is bleak for Americans if Trump wins. He is not for America, he is for himself. He is for the cishet able bodied able minded white man.
I am begging you, as a queer disabled person, to vote for Harris-Walz. This isn’t the time to deliberate.
By not voting for Harris, you are voting against the above minorities. I don’t care if you “still support them”. You are directly putting us in danger. Don’t be stupid, don’t be rash, don’t put others in danger. Lives are at stake here. Please, vote now.
REBLOG THIS POST TO REACH AS MANY PEOPLE AS YOU CAN. POST ABOUT IT YOURSELF. FOR THE LOVE OF GOD DON’T STAY SILENT.
Before I get back to fully posting normally I also want to put this out there,
The Satanic Temple is legally recognized as a church by the IRS and the Federal Court System. The are in multiple lawsuits against states such as Texas, Idaho, Missouri, and Arkansas that are implementing strict abortion bans.
This link brings you to their RRR Campaign page for more information:
Signing up is free and you can easily find a congregation near you, and it's not exclusive to the US, but for what's currently happening in the US following the presidential election, I'm making this post for you. You're also able to purchase a membership card and certificate after you join but joining is completely free.
Encountered one of those annoying election bots recently, (it was trump ew) so I hit ‘em with that. Thought tumblr would appreciate
I may be too young to vote, but if you're old enough, I beg you, please vote.
HEY!
Hey you!
Yeah, you. You who wasn’t going to vote because it doesn’t matter, both sides are evil, but who posts about women’s rights on tumblr.
VOTE.
Amy Comey Barrett was confirmed as a Supreme Court Justice half an hour ago. She is one of the most extreme right wing justices to be nominated in decades. She is anti women’s rights. She is proven to be racist. She is anti LGBTQ. She is indifferent about the environment. She is anti voter’s rights.
We CANNOT allow the Supreme Court to remain a right wing majority.
If Biden wins, the Democrats have the ability and the chance to pack the courts- expanding the courts so that they can have a balanced representation of the political spectrum.
VOTE, VOTE, VOTE! THIS IS FIXABLE! BUT IT WONT BE IF YOU DONT VOTE!
ALSO, IF YOU’RE MAILLING A BALLOT, AND YOU HAVENT SENT IT YET, GET IT DONE TODAY. Yes, today. October 26th. If you wait, there’s no garuntee its received in time. If you haven’t done that in time, bring your ballot STRAIGHT to your local civil service office, or vote early in person.
Please. The entire country’s democracy is at stake.
To anyone who is able to vote this year, please listen!
I know I haven't been posting much art lately. Sorry about that. I have been having some burn out and my mental health has been shit.
Anyways, I figured I would post what's been on my mind today.
I know many of us who currently live or are born in The States/USA have felt pretty hopeless with everything going on in the country at the moment. Especially because of the whole Biden V Trump shit that has been going on for a long while.
We have felt like that no matter who we vote for it's honestly pointless because either Biden or Trump will win. Well, honestly I would HIGHLY recommend checking out Mrs. Marianne Williamson.
Marianne Williamson is the only person in the Democratic party who has been calling for a ceasefire over in Gaza since the very beginning.
She stated that if she becomes the president she is going to be negoiating with the Ukraine and going to try and do as much as she can to help.
She, if she becomes president, wants to establish a Department of Peace because she believes that we need to better target and discuss peace just as much as we do war.
She wants to fight climate change.
She wants to make healthcare and college universal and free.
She wants to help disabled communities.
She wants to give land back to Indigenous tribes.
She wants to create more gun safety laws.
She wants to make jobs and homes more accessable.
She wants to help protect reproductive rights.
She wants to target mental health and make it more accessable to the people.
She wants to put more POC, LGBTQIA+, and disabled people into our government to be certain that when they are discussing matters that personally target those communities, people who represent those communities can speak their minds on it.
She wants to provide funding over the span of two decades to the black communities for the years of slavery that our country has put them through.
She wants to target poverty and the economy as a whole.
And lots more.
If you'd like to read up on her and what she stands for, you can find that -> here
Please spread this around as much as possible! We need a president who stands with Gaza, the LGBTQIA+ Community, the POC community, the Disabled Community, etc. She is that. She is just aaa. I checked out here site and was not disappointed. You can find her main site -> here
I just wanted to say that there's hope!!!! I know who has my vote this year. Please make sure you vote this year!
(Sorry for typos-)
Look I hate to get political, because I know the world doesn't revolve around America and I genuinely believe no side has our best interest truly at heart; but this shit is fucking scary.
Please vote!!
Also this is a wonderful tribute to schoolhouse rock.
Can Kamala Harris win? Does she really stand a chance? I’m so scared for my American friends, their families and every kind, decent human being who resides there.
She has a motherfucking chance because we are going to GIVE her a motherfucking chance.
No more talking about how "of course" the country won't elect a black woman (they also thought that with Obama in 2008). No more dooming. We can destroy the fucking billionaire donors as soon as the election is over. We can do everything else as soon as we have time to do it because we are not being fucked in the ass by Trump and his despicable orange fascists.
We are going to rally the fuck behind Kamala Harris and we are going to do it now. We are going to support whichever VP she chooses. We are going to be on the fucking lookout for any Purity Police whining about how Kamala isn't good enough either. We are going to keep our eyes fucking open for the Russian interference that frankly, I suspect, contributed heavily to this in the first place. We are going to learn our fucking lesson from 2016 and not whine about Third Party Protest Votes. We are going to pull together and quit fucking whining. Now Biden is out. You don't have to cOnDeSceNd yourself to voting for him. You are going to fucking help us get Kamala in office so fucking help us God. Then we can deal with the rest of it later. It is that simple.
The end.
Fox is NOT a “NEWS” provider, simply entertainment!
So, MAGA and all you deranged uneducated morons keep getting your NEWS from an ENTERTAINMENT provider.
Just like the WWE… do you know what the “E” in WWE stands for 🤔 ENTERTAINMENT!
