You know the drill by now. It’s June 1, and suddenly everything from banks to big box stores has slapped a rainbow on their logo. Rainbow capitalism knows how to target LGBTQIA+ customers. For exactly 30 days of the year. How quaint.
Of course, it’s nice to make things bright, and colorful, and pretty. But it’s meaningless if that’s all it is.
Pride should be about uplifting and celebrating you, the community. And it should be year-round, not just 8.22% of the year. So, we’re signal-boosting your posts that celebrate, support, and honor all genders and sexualities over here. Follow to keep your dashboard lovely and gay as hell all year round.
And, yes, we’re also making a bit of a fuss right here on @celebrate (apparently, we just can’t help ourselves). So if you’re interested in talking about what Pride means to you or want to celebrate Pride but don’t know how to go about it this year, we made a fun little 30-day Share Your Pride Challenge list. Because you do, in fact, deserve to be celebrated.
Tag your posts with #ShareYourPride if you want to make them a little easier for other people to find. And Tumblr? Happy Pride. We’re glad you’re here.
Blame this guy named tony for this ok😭
I’ve wanted to make one of these all week.
Now I have
Here’s the copy I filled out:
Marinette is Zatanna’s older cousin and can practice magic herself. Her magic is different however. For most low level spells she simply has to think of what the spell is intended for. For a harder spell she needs to chant much like Zatanna.
Marinette practices at home with her Uncle Zatara occasionally visiting with Zatanna. Magic comes naturally to Marinette, she likes to claim that it just flows in and out of her.

“What’s it doing?” I asked, watching the train inch through the station.
“Looking for a conductor,” she answered. “The train will take good care of you, but you can never get off.”
Dear boys: You are handsome as hell. It doesn’t matter how tall you are, or strong, or how feminine or masculine you are, or what’s in your pants. You are the kings and princes of the world, and don’t let anyone say you aren’t. And if you want, you can be a fucking princess or queen too. You are allowed to ask for help just like you are allowed to help others. You are allowed to cry, it’s manly as Hell. Slay that eyeliner and dress if you please, or rock that suit. Do what makes you comfortable. Nothing makes you any less of a man. You are enough.
Dear girls: You are gorgeous. You can be petite and wear dresses. You can be 6'4 and ripped in a tank top. You can rule the world, or play a small part, either way you are important. You are a princess and a queen, a prince and a king. Your emotions are serious, regardless if you are on your period or not. You can be nice as you please, or you can live without a care in the world. You can shave your body, or let the hair grow. You can have a small or big chest, you can have a beard, and it doesn’t matter if what’s in your pants isn’t what is expected. Rock that body. Do with it what you please. Nothing makes you less of a woman. You are enough.
Dear nonbinary people: You are beautiful. If afab, you can bind or not, it’s up to you. If amab, you can rock facial hair. You don’t have to be androgynous, but you can if you want to. You are not just a ‘special snowflake’. You are much more than your identity. You can color your hair and chop it all off, or you can leave it its natural color and let it grow as long as you please. Your body shape is perfect no matter how it looks or changes. You are the monarchs of the world, but you can call yourself a queen, king, prince or princess. You can use binary pronouns, or use ones that are incredibly obscure. You don’t have to live up to anyone’s expectations but your own. Nothing makes you less of a person. You are enough.
Human with hairspray and a lighter joins in the destruction
(sorry if anyone has already brought this up)
so, aliens reacting to humans laughing at the wrong times/awkward situations.
but…
imagine humans laughing when they’re gonna absolutely fuck something up
Alien: It seems we are surrounded, by multiple weapons, and have a good chance of dying, what shall we do
Human (with a big bazooka or some deadly weapon): *cackling*
Alien: If I may ask, how is this situation comical
Human (still laughing): Because I’m about to fuck this shit up
Alien who has been around humans for a while: I suggest we all take cover immediately.
to my War crimes question , i think the aliens would try to force us to get rid of our weapons , maybe even ban us from certain places and activitys until the humans start to revolt.
We as a race have a tendency to start revolutions if it get's bad enought , we also tend to unite if we have a common enemy.
Imagine the entier world united in an uprising against aliens trying to oppress us , and maybe we even get in contactg with another race with an similar history ?
Let's say there was this race of skilled warriors who got forced to lay down thier weapons because of others fearing them , and suddenly after years of humiliation there is this race of deathworlders going throught the same as them , only they rise up and contact them asking if they'd like to join.
And whats worse than humans getting angry ? Humans getting angry together with feared warriors.
And after this whole revolution thing aliens acctualy take a look at out history and realise ,,Fuck , this was a normal reaction from them''
YESSSSSSSSSS
This is really fun to think about.
So first off, apparently the other aliens in this world don’t have the same culture of preserving (or semi-preserving) and re-teaching history, so they didn’t go through the human’s history even though we tend to not hide most of it. Especially the revolutions. Those are talked about in history classes a lot. Also the fact that they didn’t know about war crimes adds to this idea.
Or, the other option, they just didn’t think looking at our history other than like the essential stuff (ex: war tactics, and other stuff) was important.
Either way these aliens were not well prepared for the situation that they thought they had control over. I just thought that was interesting.
This is a likely scenario especially considering the fact that we don’t know how other aliens would react to having weapons and military privileges revoked. It’s likely that this demilitarization worked for other violent races (the warrior species you were talking about), so they thought it would work for us as well.
This would be a really interesting story, considering it seems that there’s a lot of flaws in how the aliens handle things that they’re scared of/how they handle things in general.
It’s likely that the humans would join with the warrior species, and would see it as a really good opportunity.
And cus of the fierce packbonding, the humans and warrior species would probably stick together long after they fought the revolution. Maybe our cultures would combine?
That’s hard to say though as human cultures are really diverse, and it’s likely the warrior species would be as well.
The “oh fuck” moment is really good though. Because if they were just more organized, the aliens could have easily found a better way to fix the “hey I’m worried the humans might kill us” issue. And, if this is the first major revolution the galactic community has had, the humans could become even more terrifying, or could become a saving grace for a system that didn’t work. Or just… “hey remember that time the [insert your version of the galactic councils] tried to take away the humans’ weapons?” “Yeah they don’t do that anymore”.
HOWEVER
I do have a bit more I’d love to talk about.
What if humans don’t get along with the warrior species well?
Like humanity agrees to join forces, but our cultures and/or mannerisms do not mesh well at all.
So we’re working towards a common goal, but we don’t work together well. What would arise from that?
Say that we won the revolution, what would happen with the humans and the warrior race? Would a war start up between them? Would there be a constant tension as we both try to set up a new form of government or as we try to reform the old method of how the galactic community handled things?
What if we lost the revolution?
Would tensions get worse? Would humanity and the warrior species be forced to stay with each other as “punishment”?
This is a really cool continuation of the idea
I feel lance on a spiritual level for the noise when its quiet
Pidge:Why do you sleep with my headphones on? The rooms are soundproof.
Lance:Oh their because i cant stand that loud ringing noise when your in a silent room
Pidge:What ringing noise?
Lance: hardy haw haw, you know what once i mean. The loud one thats always there when its too quiet.
Pidge: Lance… are you ADHD by any chance?
Lance: yeah why?
Pidge: because not everyone hears that ringing, its sensory issue and we dont hear it.
Keith: i do… wait its not normal?
Lance: Apparently not! i need to rethink my whole world view now thanks Pidge!
