Reblog if you think public libraries are important and should be maintained.

Can’t believe Bram Stoker once sent a 2000-word fan letter to Walt Whitman which included his exact height, weight and how much he loved his poems and wanted to be friends with him, and that Whitman wrote back saying he liked his letter and hoped they could meet some day, how cute is that

And then he finally got to meet him and Stoker said “I found him all that I had ever dreamed of, or wished for in him” HOW CUTE IS THAT

I’ve been making gay knights (and ladies) collages on my phone at work

Pronouns are words used to refer to yourself and others. I, We, You, Your, He, She, They, You're, Theirs, His, It, Herself etc are ALL pronouns, it's very hard to speak English without using them. Singular They/Them has been used for centuries. The word "You" used to only be used for groups, see how language evolves.

Cis and Trans are Adjectives which are describing words. Cis is not a slur or a pronoun. Cis is a Latin prefix that means "On the same side of" whereas Trans means "On the other side of."

Puberty Blockers were first created in the 80s to stop children from starting puberty too early. Children can get their period as early as 7 years old and a child shouldn't have to go through that. The effects are completely reversible, all the child has to do is stop taking them whenever they're ready and they'll start their puberty again. You only have a problem with puberty blockers when Trans kids use them.

No doctor is performing gender affirming surgeries on under age children, there's so much that you have to do before even being approved for top or bottom surgery (or any kind of gender affirming surgery), it's also very expensive, none of this would ever be performed on a child.

Drag Queens reading stories to children or dancing for them isn't any different than hiring a professional to dress up for your child's birthday party or going to Disney World where everyone is dressed up and playing characters. There is absolutely nothing inappropriate about Drag Queen story time. Drag Queens wear far more clothing than literally any of us. If you're fine with taking your child to Hooters or to a sports game with cheerleaders but you have a problem with Drag Queens... You sexualize Queer people and say it's inappropriate for us to be around children yet you have no problem with over-sexualizing women if it's for your entertainment and you have no problem with your child seeing it.

not an ask but thank you for being supportive of trans people <3

Thank you! That reminds me, this is a good chance to post a funny story that happened a few months ago.

Someone DM'd me on Twitter asking if she could send me a picture to do something creepy with. I checked their bio and profile and it was full of TERF bullshit, so I decided I'd go along in a way...

Since people loved the concept of "Pride Flag Found Footage", I ended up making more with a bunch of other flags! Here's a few of them:

A malevolent deity that is said to be the originator of Bisexual Lighting and its corrupting force.

"I swear it's real! It wasn't the wind or anything. I could swear that lesbian flag was *slithering* towards me."

"Oh, you mean you're seeing the Pan Flag? Poor lad. They say if you see it once, it will never leave you. It's everywhere, always floating just at the edge of your vision. You better get used to it."

Looking back, you realize it was there all along. Just lurking… Was it watching over? Protecting you? Or maybe it was biding its time, waiting for the right moment to attack.
