Growing up fat, you get made fun of for everything you do, even basic shit like eating and laughing and breathing are funny when you do it because youre fat! And its so hard to not carry that with you as you get older, like I’m still embarassed to eat or dance in front of people or smile in pictures and its ridiculous and I hate it and I wish I was treated with more humanity

A concept: mermaids in wheelchairs
[ or, toxic masculinity from the perspective of a trans guy ]
when i came out as trans my warm and loving family supported me
but they treated me differently
when i came out as trans my dad asked if he should start slapping me on the back and socking me in the arm instead of hugging me.
when i came out as trans my mom wanted to know if i would still got with her on fun trips to the mall to buy clothes and home decor items.
when i came out as trans my grandfather looked positively startled and overjoyed when i kissed his cheek and told him to drive safe.
when i came out as trans my grandmother asked if it was okay if she hugged me in public or if it would embarrass me.
when i came out as trans my dad told me that he had a lot to teach me— he said this because i told him i thought make up was fun.
when i came out as trans my aunt apologized for kissing me on the forehead.
when i came out as trans my uncle gave me a handshake rather than a hug.
when i came out as trans my cousins hesitated to hug me at the door.
when i came out as trans my family hesitated to show me the casual affection and platonic love they had previously felt free to give.
end toxic masculinity.
show your sons as much affection as you would show your daughters.
let your sons indulge in beauty when they want to and always support them.
do not think for one second that the societal expectation of masculinity is more important than the individual feelings and needs of someone you love.
So true
Why is it always ‘queer people are projecting their identities onto characters’ and never ‘straight people are presuming that their identity is the default’?
This includes, but is not limited to nonbinary, genderfluid, agender, demigender, genderqueer, and just really anyone who may be questioning their gender at the moment, but still haven’t figured it out.

Why is no one talking about what happened in São Paulo yesterday?
The sky turned completely black around three in the afternoon partly because of smoke coming from the Amazon rainforest, WHICH IS 2300 KILOMETERS AWAY FROM THE CITY, where the government has greatly increased the amount of land being burned for profit. People are getting sick, animals are dying, native territory is being lost to the flames.
This is what the sky looked like in my city yesterday, in the early afternoon.
It got so dark so fast the city had to turn on the lamp posts and night lighting.
Please talk about this. Reblog this post, non-brazilians especially.
EDIT : i made this post on tuesday the 20th when this was getting absolutely no media coverage whatsoever. stop telling me people are talking about it now. i know.
