If you’re attracted to the opposite gender you’re not lgbt. Lmao
anti-ace discoursers, apparently: “bisexuals are a myth created by ace tumblr”
also anti-ace discoursers: “trans people were made up by the straights to get into the lgbT community”
In a shocking twist, anti-ace discoursers accidentally declare aro aces LGBT

Hi dets! 1) thanks for killing me with emotions over the latest chapter. Such feeling, so dead, wow. 2) I was wondering if I could ask you a teacher question. I’m going to be teaching my very first class EVER next week, and as someone who clearly gives representation and diversity a lot of thought in your writing, I was wondering if you had any recommendations for sources on inclusive teaching? Am desperate and SO nervous that I’m going to fail epically because of my anxiety :/
Hey Nonnie!
ahhh, thank you – I am sorry about all the emotional stabbity 😀 I hope you enjoyed it nevertheless!
And yeah, holy heck yeah, do I ever. Lots of babbling and examples and links and general thoughts, under the cut:
Can I just point out how amazing one of my all time favorite authors is right now? That she takes such time and care to answer questions from anonymous strangers on the internet. To have that much positive reinforcement from someone whose work has inspired so many other people, to see them take the time to give so much encouragement, offering to talk to them about stuff outside of fandom and tumblr, to be so amazingly positive and supportive. This, this is why I love this tumblr place. Because of people like determamfidd.
(And to the teacher!anon: GOOD LUCK! YOU’RE GOING TO BE FINE! Just caring this much about making your lessons inclusive already shows that you’re going to be awesome in class)
(holy heck I just saw this – and omfg, thank you. That is a completely beautiful and generous thing to say: I dunno where to put my face, I am so very flabbergasted, it just. means so much. So so much. This is my job and my passion, and I am fortunate and lucky to have the opportunity to give something of what I’ve learned to those starting out, at least I hope so… I wouldn’t call myself an expert teacher, nor an authority, but it sure means a lot to me as is probably obvious from the essay I ended up writing, lol. Thank you SO much.
I am thinking of you, Teacher!Nonnie! You can DO IT! You are going to be an amazing teacher.)
hey, I saw you reblogged something about sense8. Just a head’s up, apparently some pretty terrible and possibly triggering things happen to a trans lady in the show (haven’t watched it but there was a post going around). So you and your followers may want to be check that before watching, to be on the safe side, cuz it might be really upsetting for some. but i hope you can enjoy the show! I’m planning on watching it later :D
Ahhh, thank you so much for the heads-up. PSA, everyone – please watch with consideration and care for yourself.
Aw Yiss
