Okay, I’m gonna do this. Not because I’m asking for attention or a pity party (I’M JUST A POOR BOY, I NEED NO SYMPATHY.)(Sorry, I had to.) not because I’m asking you to go off or send hate to this person, but because issues like these need to be addressed, and because I legitimately think this person is going around purposefully harassing and disrespecting trans and non-binary people and their identities.
IT WAS HALLOWEEN 👏 WHEN I WAS 8 👏AND LIVING IN A HOMELESS SHELTER👏IM SORRY👏IF MY PUNK LOOK👏INSULTS YOUR EYES SO MUCH👏 MAYBE GO WASH THEM OUT WITH SOAP OR SOMETHING👏
I think this person believed me to be a trans woman, or something of the sort, and judging by the way they replied to my friend it seems like they were also harassing a trans man that day.
“But they look like a woman sis” and “fine, die mad about the fact that your friend looks like a woman.” Were both stated before they made clear they realized who my friend was talking about, saying “ohhh is it…” and then proceeding to pull up the picture of me again, stating: “yeah he’s a boy” and a string of insults I won’t even get into, followed by: “They have secondary Male sex characteristics and don’t pass as anything other than Male. Sorry I don’t make the rules sis.”
It seems like this person’s main goal is to disrespect people’s gender identities and tell them they only look like their gender assigned at birth (or what they assume is their gender assigned at birth) and then they settled for telling me I can’t look like either if I’m nonbinary. So I’m warning you all, and if any of you have already gotten shit from this dickhead please come to me and let me know. We’re in this together, spn family or not, I’m here. Always keep fighting.
Say it with me now:

@youhaveaguineapigwhere (I am new to genders and I don’t know mine yet, so this is kinda wrong in gender terms, I hope I don’t state the opposite than what I want)
People need to realize the significance of this post, because when I reblogged it it was just blank so I think some people may not understand what this is trying to say
Adopting an animal (or buying from someone close to you who has recently had puppies, kittens, etc) is not like simply going to the store and buying a toy. You do not just get to throw it away once you are done with it and it stops being cute in your eyes
This is a real living thing that has emotions, needs, and wants, not something to be thrown away when YOU are done after YOU entered at commitment to raise and care for this animal.
What’s just as bad as dumping the animal off just anywhere you want, whether it be on the side of the road or in a shelter, is that a lot of these animals end up dying after that. Animals are NOT always adopted and strays are not always picked up. Animals can get put down, run over, tortured, and a list of other things
People should really think about what they are responsible for before they bring an animal into their life
Not to mention that that animal loves you, you are his world, and when you drop him off at the shelter – or worse, in the street – you are abandoning him. He doesn’t know what he did wrong, he thinks you’ll come back, maybe you just dropped him off for a bit and you’ll come back to him. Not only did you make a commitment, but that animal loves you and throwing them away isn’t just breaking that commitment, it’s throwing away someone who doesn’t understand why you don’t love him anymore and where you went.
This is so important. Animals are NOT toys you just can’t return them because you got bored. Think first before you buy a cute little puppy for your stupid girlfriend or sister or whatever. Okay. This just make me so mad that I can’t keep talking about it. Seriously you have no heart if you do this. Seriously
With Christmas coming up in a few weeks, I felt this needed reiterating.
Reblogging for the holidays. Know what you’re getting into when buying a pet!
Cannot not reblog 😢
And this goes for all the other pets too. Not dogs only.
They are living beings. Not toys to play with and then discard once you are tired of them.
Be responsable! Be sure to be actually able to take good care of your pets BEFORE to adopt them/buy them.
That it’s the damn feels man
I just had to give my cat a hug. Oomf. I’ve had one since 2012 one since.. I think 2014 and another in 2016. Please love your babies. There your babies and you’ll only have them for a little while. :,(
it’s important for cis people to be exposed to the bs trans ppl see everyday. I don’t share these a lot, but today I did. you can see it all here if you want to.
one of the dogs I groomed today was skunked at some point, and every time I bathe her the old skunk smell resurfaces and it is fucking disgusting. because of that, and because the smell is still lingering in my nose and brain, I’m going to take this opportunity to advise you all on how to deal with a skunked cat or dog.
a common method, one that is even advised on the BC SPCA website, is to use a combination of hydrogen peroxide, baking soda, and dishsoap. do not do this. people use this as a cleaner for grout and a bleach for hair. it’s not appropriate for use on animals, particularly when there are safer methods available.
so with that in mind, here’s an effective method to best mitigate the smell should your pet get skunked:
do not get the animal wet. as soon as you get them wet, the hair follicles will close up and then the spray is locked in. for dogs, it takes up to seven years for a hair follicle to turn over which means your dog could potentially smell like skunk for literal years.
instead, load them up with baking soda. I’m talking so much that a black dog turns white. let it sit for ten minutes, or more if the animal is not in distress. you can even shake it out and add more. do not rinse.
add concentrate dog shampoo or dawn dishsoap. I’ve been told repeatedly that dawn is the only acceptable dishsoap to use on animals (and only as a last resort, as dishsoap simply is not designed for use on animals). if you can get your hands on proper concentrated dog shampoo that’s better. lather that shit up and add vanilla extract, then rinse. if you are still getting wafts you can add more baking soda even though the water has set.
for dogs, when they are cleaned to the best of your ability, you can add conditioner (my grooming instructor taught me not to use conditioner on cats, and she had a reason but I cannot remember what it was, so I’m erring on the side of caution here in not advising it). if you can, book a bath with a groomer for 3-4 weeks later (given the 28 day cycle of skin on average) or bathe at home, not for the clean but for the conditioner. this is to offset the strip of oils from the coat during the initial deskunking.
unfortunately by the time I have the opportunity to share this method with people, they’ve typically already stuck their dog in the tub and bathed them or bleached them with hydrogen peroxide and baking soda. hopefully this helps prevent some unfortunate people and pets from ending up in that scenario.
