Samira Ghorbani Danesh has one month left in Germany. The 24-year-old Iranian refugee hopes that this last month will finally bring good news from the courts, which so far have denied her plea for asylum.
Ghorbani Danesh left Iran in 2009, fleeing first to Turkey before making her way to Bavaria, a state in southern Germany. She says it was a party that finally convinced her to...

silkchemise:
To begin, let me say how interested I am to see that many members of the THG fandom have now come to understand that the casting of White actors for the roles of Katniss, Gale, Haymitch, and the Seam characters was a deliberate and racist action by the film’s executives. Never mind that numerous PoCs in the fandom have been saying this since Jennifer Lawrence was cast, but obviously...

There are very few men in this world who make the cut as being a genuine feminist and this applies to Tumblr as well.

About a week ago, I wrote a post on Penny Arcade vs. Rape Culture, which sent my blog traffic skyrocketing after it was linked on Reddit. However, both in comments on the post itself and elsewhere on Reddit, quite a few people seemed to be missing the point: or, more specifically, misunderstanding what rape culture actually is and how it applies to gaming. One...

Dear trans folk and supporters
fromonesurvivortoanother:
The tumblr blog, dearnoncispeople, has been posting really cissexist, awful things on the “trans” tag. If you follow this tag or similar ones, I’d advise blocking that tumblr. Some of the stuff is triggering and it is all terrible.
