Can tumblr please please please stop showing me, a trans masc, ads for bras I am already very emotional at this moment and I have seen 3 of these ads in 15 minutes. Anyway, fuck the Yahoo purchase, we all predicted this
probably i just said it but i want to say it again:
- don’t apologise if you don’t know english.
- yes, english is the most common language on the internet but you are not forced to know it perfectly.
- your own language is beautiful.
- non-english people make a huge effort to write in English everyday on this website.
- support non-english people and don’t make them feel bad if they do not know English.
- actually support all the languages.
- spread more language diversity on Tumblr.
thank you.
well that was my first major break up and can confirm the rumors, it does indeed suck
my favorite thing that’s ever come out of those dumb “gender reveal” parties, you know the ones, is that people make cakes and other baked goods for them right?
and since everything in this hellscape has to be gendered including colors, they gotta use both pink and blue frosting when they decorate to keep the prospective parents guessing before they cut the cake open and reveal how they’re gonna color-code their babies, but that also means:
people are out here making blue and white and pink baby cakes and just, unintentionally throwing the trans flag all over their pointless “gender” celebration and i think that’s just superb
someone make me this cake when i get top surgery to celebrate
What if the trans community…stole gender reveal parties?
I hate the love triangle trope so so much and just think people should be poly. And yet here I am in this exact situation. Apparently it only works if everyone is actually poly. This does not work if 2 of the 3 are poly and the third person invalidates the gender of one.
Guess who’s here on tumblr bc I’m considering breaking up with my bf and he follows me on twitter!!! 🙃
