I just want to belabor this point for a moment.

These images are not explicit. These pictures show two adults, engaging in consensual kissing. That’s it. It isn’t violent, it isn’t pornographic. It’s literally just two adult humans sharing a kiss.

It’s ludicrous and insulting that – especially in 2018 – this is flagged, either by some sort of badly-designed algorithm, or by shitty homophobic people.

And to just restate something that I reblogged a little bit ago:

the reality is that for a lot of the LGTBQ+ community, particularly younger members still discovering themselves and members in extremely homophobic environments where most media sites were banned (but Tumblr wasn’t even considered important enough to be), this was a bastion of information and self-expression.

I am so lucky. I am so massively lucky and privileged. I’m rich, I’m white, I’m a CIS male in a heterosexual relationship. I can look just about anywhere in the world and see myself represented in art and media. My experience has been normalized to the exclusion and oppression of people who don’t share that experience.

That. Must. Change.

I can only imagine what it must feel like to fight every second of ever day just to exist in a world that is filled with people who share my demographic (but not my values) using their wealth and power and privilege to attack you, simply for being who you are, for existing. I can only imagine how terrible and suffocating and exhausting that must be. 

According to marginalized and vulnerable people, this change in policy will directly hurt them, and that’s indefensible. 

The ridiculousness of this policy change can be simply illustrated by the image here being flagged. Why was it flagged? Because homophobia is rampant and too many people who should stand up against it are cowards who don’t want to risk their own wealth and privilege in the service of people who can’t defend themselves.

I applaud and admire and respect the hell out of everyone in the LGBTQ community here who have formed networks and friendships and relationships and support structures for each other. You have worked so hard to create and maintain a safe space for each other, and I’m embarrassed, appalled, and furious that people who look like me are making your lives – hell, your very existence – so hard. 

I’m just one person, and maybe it won’t matter or make a difference, but I stand with you, not just on this website, but in our entire universe. I see you. I love you. I value you.

if youve never physically been in the presence of like, a real live wolf, and you probably wont get the chance to, heres some stuff about them you should know

  • a wolf’s fur is so unbelievably thick that you can get like, your whole hand into it while petting. and then you can keep going
  • wolves are a lot bigger than you think they are. think about how big you think a wolf is then just like double that
  • they dont really smell like dog but they DO smell and youre not going to be able to figure out if its a good smell or not
  • a wolf really wants to lick the inside of your mouth. he will not stop trying to lick the inside of your mouth at any cost, and generally speaking you need to press your lips together kind of tightly when he approaches your face so that he doesnt worm his damn tongue in there to give you what he thinks is an appropriate greeting
  • a wolf doesnt really want to look at you while you pet him but he wants you to pet him. hes embarrassed
  • if a grown ass wolf decides to lay down on you, you just have to deal with it and thats your life now
  • young wolves, much like young dogs, are overwhelmingly goofy and stupid. a teenage wolf will see your very fragile, very human shoulder and go “i can probably step on that with my full weight” and then he will do it
  • letting a wolf eat out of your hand is actually not remotely frightening, and youll want to do it all day

I wanna know who did this research.

well, i did!

Prompt: Tony gives Steve a pet dog (Horribly self indulgent and I don’t care~)

kiyaar:

[MCU]

“She’s made of spice,” Tony says. “And sugar.“ 

20 pounds of black and tan and ears that flop all over her face. Pepper is a queen, Tony decides. 

Steve looks like he doesn’t know whether to beam or cry. 

“That’s not how it goes,” Steve points out. He looks like he wants to be holding her at arm’s length, but he’s just got her half-leaning on the meat of his arm, one of her ears falling limp over his shoulder. 

“Whatever, you need a stabilizing force in your life, she can help you paint and I can hook you up with my contractor when she leaves little rainbow pawprints all over the floor." 

"I have a stabilizing force in my life,” Steve sulks. “So stabilizing I can’t seem to get rid of him for more than an hour at a time.”

Tony slides into a half-sprawl on the bed next to them. The puppy is mostly asleep, though it gives a half-hearted squeak of a yawn, and Steve, entirely straight-faced, touches its tiny pink nose with one finger. 

Tony grins. He can’t really help it. They’re both unmanageably precious. 

“She’s so little,” Steve says quietly, and Tony rests his head on Steve’s other shoulder. 

“She’s a rescue,” Tony says. “Pepper found her." 

Steve leans over, does his best not to jostle her, kisses Tony under the jaw with his mouth slightly open, sends chills down his neck and makes him love, makes him deliriously happy –

"She’s perfect,” Steve says.

Tony kisses him full on the mouth, and only stops when he feels a hot little tongue on his throat. 

Just saw your tag about trying to incorporate Sam into a Stony fic. What about pre-infinity war era Sam & Rhodey are back to being friends and Steve seeing them easily slip back into their old dynamic, contemplating his & Tony’s relationship. I just got those vibes from Steve in that scene from the movie when he was looking at Sam & Rhodey talking when they went back to the compound.

nasafic:

The strangest things burn sometimes.

Stumbling into the kitchen to find a half-full cup of coffee, still warm, hastily abandoned. The extra salty tang of the chicken from the new Chinese food place Tony started frequenting while Steve was on the run. The punching bag hanging in the gym, identical to the one Steve had left except for the fact it was unreinforced and now splintered like wood under his knuckles.

And now, this: Sam and Rhodey, bickering easily over whatever the news anchor on the television was just saying, lazily eating out of a shared pizza box, acting, for all intents and purposes, like absolutely nothing had changed.

It pangs low in Steve’s chest, an ache too deep to swallow down, so all he can do is breathe. “What’s up?” he asks, lightly as he can manage, in an effort to mitigate the feeling. “What are you guys watching?”

“Just another senator being an idiot,” Sam says. Steve tenses for a second, flicking a glance over at Rhodey, but he’s just as relaxed as he’d been a moment before, nodding along to Sam’s commentary.

“Sounds exciting,” Steve says. He can’t think of any more words to fill up the silence, and while Sam and Rhodey seem comfortable with it, Steve’s not; he doesn’t belong in this space with these people and these feelings, not now, not anymore. “Anyway, uh, I’ll see you in the morning for a run, Sam?”

Sam nods without looking away from the TV, which is now displaying aerial footage of some sort of protest in L.A.. “You got it.”

Steve hovers a moment longer before finally giving up and slipping away. He’s almost halfway down the hallway before he hears the conversation pick back up again, Sam needling Rhodey about something and Rhodey responding in kind. Steve sighs, rubs a hand across his chest.

It’s probably fair. He’s the one that fucked up, after all.
