You don’t have to be black, it just means you support us, you stand by us and you’re for us.

Someone who’s black or supports black people and their human rights. it literally says that in the description. “You don’t have to be black, it just means you support us, you stand by us and you’re for us.”
there’s nothing wrong with overly self-indulgent shit like honestly
make that fuckin beauty and the beast au with your otp
draw your favorite character broken and bloody for no reason
make a self-insert that’s super important and powerful
write porn of that obscure ship centered entirely around your personal kinks
headcanon your faves as your sexuality, gender, etc
have fun man
i mean in the past i’ve made fun of all these things but i’ve grown up and chilled out and honestly? fiction is your platform to go nuts. have a great time. do what you want to
just respect other people’s boundaries and don’t go forcing your headcanons down other people’s throats, because they deserve to have a good time too
enjoy fiction however you want to and don’t let other people tell you how it’s supposed to be enjoyed
If this happens, people struggling with their mental health and/or abusive situations, especially teenagers, will have to pay for access to the many hotline/chat services for suicide/crisis prevention, mental health support, drug safety and intervention, and general information about life they don’t teach in school/sex ed. The many forums that exist for all types of disorders/illnesses, if they can afford to stay afloat, will likely come in a separate “Forum” bundle, too. And since we are talking primarily about teenagers here, they will more likely ask their parents to buy these things for them, which is a problem for very obvious reasons.
Have you ever talked someone down from suicide over the internet? Helped them when they were cutting? Gave them emotional support at a fragile time? Becuase without net neutrality, a lot of those people will be out of your reach. A lot of them rely on their internet friends, because they may live in a shitty ass place, full of ableism, homophobia, transphobia, and racism. This is their safe place, this is what keeps them alive.
How many people figured out that they are normal, valid, and ok, all because of the internet? I’m willing to bet a lot of you reading this. Perhaps, because of the internet, you found out what being transgender was, and you just knew. Maybe, you realized that being asexual didn’t mean you were broken. Possibly you’ve seen others go through your same struggle, with depression, anxiety, bipolar, phobias, etc, and suddenly you were not alone.
Now imagine the next generation of kids growing up without this.
PLEASE EVEN IF YOU ARE NOT FROM AMERICA REBLOG THIS BECAUSE IT’S IMPORTANT
MAYBE YOU DON’T CARE ABOUT TUMBLR OR YOUTUBE OR ANY WEBSITE (I doubt it) BUT I’M SURE AS HELL YOU CARE ABOUT PEOPLE. PEOPLE WHO ARE DEALING WITH ABUSIVE SITUATIONS, DEPRESSION, SUICIDE THOUGHTS OR DRUG ABUSE
SO PLEASE HELP US SPREAD THIS SO WE CAN KEEP NET NEUTRALITY
If net neutrality is destroyed, teen suicide rates will go up massively due to the lack of support from other bloggers.
If net neutrality is destroyed, You’ll have to pay a fee just to talk to anyone. For example, my best friend moved away a couple years ago. The internet is my only way of reaching her.
If net neutrality is destroyed, she’s gone from my life.
If net neutrality is destroyed,
You’ll have to pay to do schoolwork. That’s right, schoolwork. You can’t read news articles or use homework sites without giving the fucking fcc money.
If net neutrality is destroyed,
think of all the youtubers who’s lives will be different. Most creators will have to start working normal jobs again.
If net neutrality is destroyed,
the internet would change… and certainly not for the better. Help us save it. Bomb the fcc with complaint calls, tell your friends and family to do the same.
If net neutrality is destroyed,
the internet we know and love is gone.
Always support “unpopular” artists who are just beginning to draw OR have been drawing a long time and don’t get the recognition.
Compliment them, send them messages on and off anon, be nice and cheer them on and you’ll see how much more confident in their abilities they’ll become, and improve as a result. Bc seriously if I didn’t have the friends I have to cheer me on my art would still be in the state it was 2 years ago. Be an art cheerleader
REMINDER THAT GETTING RID OF NET NEUTRALITY WILL HURT:
- SMALL BUSINESSES
How will they be able to advertise things when they’re just starting out, and how many people will be able to see it? How many people will be willing to buy things online if they already have to pay for access to the site?
- SCHOOLS
Any school with computers will have to pay money for internet access. Otherwise students won’t be able to work on any projects in class, and they will have to rely on home internet access. Lots of school funding will be used for paying this!
- PEOPLE SEEKING MEDICAL/FINANCIAL AID ONLINE
It is common on this site and on many others to see people asking for aid. Imagine what will happen to these people if they have to pay to go onto this site, and imagine how many people will see their posts. Imagine how many people will still have the money to help them.
- STUDENTS
Any kind of research paper will be a pain to write, regardless of your grade level. I have to turn in almost all of my homework online, and nothing is allowed to be handwritten. This will make college more expensive, too, and that’s already too much for anyone to pay for without student loans.
- ANYONE LOOKING FOR A JOB ONLINE
Nobody wants to pay an extra $50 dollars a month to sign up for job applications. It is also standard to have an email, so if you no longer have access to it, that can cost you a job, even if you aren’t signing up for it online.
- ARTISTS
Many artists already have trouble getting people to buy commissions. A lack of exposure and a lack of money will not help.
- YOUTUBERS
I don’t really go on youtube anymore, but I know for a fact that this will effect the amount of views (and therefore the amount of money) they’ll get for their videos. This will effect youtubers worldwide, and the U.S. is filled with tons of viewers!
- PEOPLE WITH MENTAL HEALTH ISSUES
Lots of people rely on the internet to vent or to escape. Imagine if they were suddenly told that they aren’t able to do that anymore. Imagine what will happen if they’re suddenly cut off from their friends online.
- LIBRARIES
Libraries would have to put even more funding into internet access, and if they can’t pay for it, it will be a serious inconvenience to many, many people. People who go to the library to use the computers often don’t have a computer at home.
Call the FCC and senators. Write an email. Send a letter. DO SOMETHING.
Let’s take a look at some screenshots of an article I was reading earlier today…
Keyword: was. They don’t support net neutrality anymore. Why you ask? well…
Tumblr is owned by Yahoo. Now that Verizon (a company that hates net neutrality) bought Yahoo, they have demanded that Tumblr must stop supporting net neutrality too. The Tumblr staff has stopped posting about net neutrality.
This site is being forced to hate net neutrality. (article link)
