People being angry about ~dem gays~ on Target’s Facebook.
I just want to give my two cents on this and tell you a story.
A couple weeks ago, I was hired at Target. I have a job at Target. Not a big deal right?
It is a big deal because i’m a transman.
It doesn’t take a genius to conclude that it’s hard for me, my brothers, and sisters to get a job. There are legal restraints regarding the job and if you don’t pass, it’s hard to be taken seriously at a job interview.
Right on the application, it asks what your preferred name is. It also asks if there is anything that target should know. I put the fact that I am a transman, expecting not to get a call because usually when you put that down, people will throw out the application. I got TWO interviews.
At the interview, they asked me about it. I told them I am on hormones and they told me that they didn’t care. Not in the sense that they don’t emotionally care, but that it didn’t matter. I was male and that’s all that mattered. They also told me that they give sex same couples benefits in states that do not recognize them as a married couple.
At my job orientation, I was not misgendered once. Even my supervisors who weren’t sure of my gender avoided pronoun use, which I found only happens when you’ve had pronoun training. They gave me a name tag with my preferred name and didn’t ask questions. I felt safe and respected, which is huge for a trans* person.
TLDR: Target is amazing not just for the LGB, but also the T. Shop there for the rest of your life.

: I'm so proud of Alana Bloom.
Look at that. A female character who not only asserts her position in a potentially sexual encounter, she does it for her own well-being.
She knows damn well that Will is no good for her, and she no good for him, and she says so.
Alana manages to escape the terrible female cliche of “I shouldn’t…but I’m going to anyway because that’s how writers write women and it’s dramatic, right?”
I’M JUST REALLY PROUD OF ALANA BLOOM FOR BEING LIKE “YOU’RE SO FINE, BUT THIS IS BAD FOR ME, AND I CAN’T” GOOD FOR HER SHE’S NOT AFRAID
IF ANY HATERS CROP UP FROM THAT SCENE I SWEAR

why does it matter if someone’s room isn’t clean
like it’s their own personal living space
if they want it messy and they’re comfortable with that then let them keep it like that it’s not your room and there’s this thing called a door that prevents you from having to see it so unless you’re going to go out of your way to spend your own time living in there calm down martha stuart

#but for real will just blows through all the walls and forts hannibal builds #moves inside hannibal’s spaces with complete rough guileless freedom #and hannibal /lets/ him #hannibal is not unsettled or enraged or insulted by this the way he is with people like tobias or franklin or anyone #that will feels comfortable just being how he is; unrestrained and without ability to respect normal social behaviours #and that hannibal is just as comfortable with this #is really fucking important #esp on a show so aware of characters and their boundaries and how they use space to protect themselves (via okayophelia)

This new Hannibal TV show makes me mad, sad, and disgusted all at once. Why must the romanticize such a horrible person? I wish people would think before they make things like this…..I mean, imagine the response that a show that romanticized Hitler would get?
#rude
#how about we don’t compare hannibal to hitler #or try to tell other people how okay or not okay to be with their own confused terror #or do you not understand that confused terror is the only kind of terror that #actually forces people to see what humanity is capable of #and not pretend it’s something they can dehumanize #and seperate from themselves #if the show bothers you for personal reasons #the simple solution is #just don’t watch it
