Just a reminder that the state bans gay and bisexual men from donating blood. 

We are legally not able to save our own lives. 

Fuck homophobia. Fuck the state. 

trans women are also coercively and transmisogynistically assigned the label of “men who have sex with men” and are also banned from blood donations

No they are lifting the ban temporarily (as seen on MSNBC news) so donations can be made from everyone at this time.

–Patty Sheehan, Orlando District 4 Commissioner made this statement (not verbatim).

oh thank god

if you can, please reblog this version of this post so that gay/bisexual men and trans women in Orlando can know they can donate blood

Sorry, but they haven’t. that information is incorrect.

Why the hell is tumblr spreading the bullshit that deviantart sells artists work without permission again? (I’ve seen it 10 times TODAY at least)

it’s long been established that that information is WRONG.

The clause is there so they can display an artists work on their site (else, what’s to point of the site), it’s not saying they can give it to third parties.

People need to fact check and stop fearmongering.

get your facts straight people

Deviantart may be innocent, but Hot Topic is still guilty. I’ve seen artwork on merchandise tons of times that I know the artist didn’t approve. Especially the buttons.

Yes, that’s true. But it’s also will known that they do it.
My problem is everyone vilifying deviantart constantly when they didn’t do anything wrong, and everyone is talking out their anger on them, not hot topic
