Legitimate *pro bono legal services* don’t exist without a good reason. In a few of the exmormon groups I’m in you’ll see regular posts saying stuff like “Look what my lawyer sent me today!” with a pic of their resignation confirmation letter from the church.

You know. Just stuff that a normal average church that is definitely not actually a cult would do. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

🙄

As an ex-mormon, I’m gonna look the fuck into this. I want nothing to do with the church that shaped so much toxicity about my self image and my sexual orientation.

Not sure if any followers need this but if you do, here you go.

Everyone should be able to choose their religious beliefs and community, and leave any that they find does not work for them.

Ex mormon here - this guy’s legit. The Mormon holds your files for eternity, and when they find out that you’ve moved to a new area, they will send members and missionaries from that region to harass you. I know this sounds like dystopic bullshit, but they followed my father through three moves before he rejoined the church.

Also ex mormon here who used this. It’s a ridiculously helpful service that is incredibly easy to use. They keep you updated throughout the whole process, and it’s totally worth it since the church doesn’t get to keep all your private information and pass it around once you resign :)

Protip for yall dealing with those ugly, uncomfortable university-issued beds:

  • Set the bedframe to the tallest height possible 
  • Shove that stupid plastic mattress underneath the bedframe, sheets and blankets and pillows and all
  • take some window curtains/extra sheets and clip them to the sides of the bedframe, creating a canopy around the underside of the bed where your mattress is. Plug up holes where light may seep through underneath with extra towels, pillows.
  • attach lots of pretty christmas lights to the underside of the bedsprings
  • Cover the top of the bedframe (where the springs are) with dark towels. then, over the towels, put down random-ass hard surfaces, cardboard and planks of wood.
  • You got yourself a flat, hard surface on the top of your bed. use it as desk space/storage space.
  • Remember that mattress you stuck underneath the bed? that’s where you sleep.

congratulations. You have just constructed a fully functional, cozy little tent-nest where you can sleep and read and watch netflix and nap to your heart’s content.

Benefits:

  • roommate wants to keep the lights on until 5am? no problem. just crawl into your warm, dark cocoon of leisure, close the canopy, and fall asleep in complete darkness.
  • NO MORE BEDSPRING CREAKING
  • all your storage can go on top of the bedframe, so everything is always within reach.
  • people think it’s really cool so you will make friends
  • friends who you can then invite into your little snuggly home and watch movies with

It’s really great and I highly recommend it 10/10

some clarification on what its gonna look like:


this is so cool

Keep this post alive so that when CARLOS is old enough he’ll know these KIDNAPPERS stole him from his MOTHER!

Guatemalan mom: “Please help me my son was taken from me”

Those two assholes: “Lol finders keepers bitch lmao”

Carlos was taken from his mom, Encarnacion Bail Romero after she was arrested during a work raid. Her words, “Nobody could help me because I don’t speak English,” are still resonating deeply within me. This child was kidnapped from a loving mother, and she went to hell and backwards trying to get him back, and a judge literally told her she had no rights to her own child.

Completely unfit parents can get their children back like it’s nothing and this poor woman who loves her child and just wants him with her again cannot? How is this not human trafficking/kidnapping? 

Also:

The judge said the biological mother had no rights to even see her child, according to the mother’s lawyer.

Asked if the Mosers would allow Bail Romero to see the child, the Mosers’ attorney, Joseph Hensley, said the couple was “not willing to comment on that at this time.” source

anyway black women are having miscarriages in Flint and there has yet to be an outrage from the “pro-life” community

can we call this a genocide yet?

keep in mind this is a MAN-MADE health crisis. they changed the water of a lower-income black community for a reason. 12 people have died so far because of the water and now the women are suffering from miscarriages. this story needs as much attention as possible. a black community is still being poisoned and pro-lifers don’t seem to give a shit

Here’s a call script for your Senators and/or representatives - scroll down to “Tell your members of Congress: Condemn the Trump administration’s separation of families.” This is especially important if you live in a red state. Trump is trying to claim that the separation of families is due to a “law” enacted by Democrats - there is no such law. This is a Trump administration policy. It’s important for Republicans to know we don’t believe his lies, and that we know exactly who is responsible for this. Calling Democratic members of Congress helps, too - even if they already support keeping families together at the border, it will help to continue to encourage them to take action.

The bill is S.3036, the Keep Families Together Act. You can read it here.

#FamiliesBelongTogether

Please, please, fellow Americans — call your senators and reps. Don’t let this be who we are as a nation.

Hey guys I just want to give a heads up. The book Adam by Ariel Schrag has been turned into a movie which has been named as one of the most exciting LGBTQ films of this year. I don’t want to spoil anybody’s fun but you should know before watching that the book is about a cis boy who pretends to be a trans man in order to persuade lesbians to sleep with him. 

It is deeply deeply transphobic. It is lesbophobic as it features a corrective rape narrative (a lesbian does have sex with him and then decides she does love men after all). 

Here is a review of the book by a trans man. I have yet to find one by a lesbian but will edit this if I do. 

This book gives out incredibly harmful notions about trans men and lesbians that are used to hurt them in real life. It’s so entrenched in the narrative that I don’t see how the film can be any better. You can find more info in this twitter thread

I’d like to tell people to boycott it but I can’t tell you what to do. So instead I’m going to ask that you share this because it being named as an exciting new queer film is going to make LGBTQ teens want to see it. And they should know before hand how hurtful it could be. They should be able to arm themselves with that knowledge. 

Please reblog.
