Just wanted to share this coming out story from a guy I saw on First Dates. He came out to his dad when he was 20, and then his mum when he was 21, after trying very hard to hide that part of himself and never really discussing anything like that in their household. Hearing his mother’s response after he explained all that was really gratifying. To all Muslim LGBT+ people, As-Salaam-Alaikum <3

Happy Eid to every Muslim on this planet. I hope you all slay with your amazing Eid clothes that you spent months picking, hope you receive a lot of money and be rich, may you have fun with your friends and family and have a blessed Eid!! ❤️❤️❤️
And Happy Eid to those without families, to those who can’t celebrate it for personal reasons, to those who try to celebrate it despite dealing with mental illness. Happy Eid who are living in a state of war. Happy Eid to those who live in a country that doesn’t celebrate Eid. And Happy Eid to every Muslim no matter who and where you are. Have a blessed Eid 💜💜💜

Yahoo’s sale to Verizon means that Yahoo’s sub-companies – Flickr, Tumblr and a host of others – are now divisions of a phone company, and as you might expect, being on the payroll of a notorious neutracidal maniac with a long history of sleazy, invasive, privacy-destroying, monopolistic, deceptive, anti-competitive, scumbag shakedowns has changed the public positions these companies are allowed to take.
This matters a lot. The previous fights for net neutrality were won in part with the support of scrappy online companies like Tumblr, whose CEO, staff and users worked together to send a strong message to Congress and the FCC about the importance of a neutral internet, free from ISPs who slow down your connections to services unless they pay bribes for “premium” carriage.
With Trump’s FCC set to slay Net Neutality, the internet is once again planning a day of coordinated action: on July 12, sites across the net will send their users to the FCC and Congress to demand that ISPs be held to a public service standard befitting the trillions of dollars in public subsidies they receive every year in the form of access to rights of way through our cities and between them.
However, Tumblr is not among the companies presently slated to participate, and sources within the company told The Verge that the company and its CEO, David Karp (once a staunch Net Neutrality campaigner) have been given orders to sit this one out.

Keep an eye on your ‘net neutrality’ posts guys. they may suddenly and for no reason up and vanish because the new parent company decides that they may not like what their new social media platform is announcing.

If everyone could please at least reblog this link, it’d be greatly appreciated. Last night, Nabra was abducted by a strange man whom she had been assaulted by on her way back from masjid. Her body was believed to have been found earlier today in a lake with a bat found at the scene. It is believed that this body is hers and that the bat was used to murder her.
“A teen girl who was missing in Fairfax County is dead and a man has been charged in her murder, police say.
Police believe a body found Sunday afternoon in a pond in the 21500 block of Ridgetop Circle in Sterling, Virginia, is a 17-year-old girl from Reston, Virginia, who was reported missing in the area hours earlier.
Officers started searching for the girl about 4 a.m. Sunday in the area of Dranesville Road and Woodson Drive in Herndon, Fairfax County Officer Tawny Wright said in a news conference Sunday evening. Some of the girl’s friends reported to police they couldn’t find her. They told police they were walking together in the area when the girl got into a dispute with a man who drove by in a car. The man got out of his car and assaulted the girl, Wright said.“
Please please please donate if you can. It’s the last few days of Ramadan, and these are the most holiest nights. Please find it in your hearts to help the family of this sweet girl who have had their daughter taken from them. Also, please signal boost this.

Why aren’t we talking about this??!!

this is important!
We know why.
It doesn’t fit the narrative..
Can we get this dude a kickstarter to raise enough for a high-end meal and cab fare for him and his family? He clearly deserves it.
(Marine Corps Times article) (CBS news story)
“By creating the exit, Yousuf estimated that about 70 people were able to get out of the nightclub safely.” He saved 70 people. That’s 70 more people that could have died that night. This is so important.
