I’m not a Muslim but I just thought I would reblog this because I think it’s definitely worth listening to.

New rule, non muslims can’t say the word jihad. Until you stop conflating a word that means personal struggle with faith and temptation with terrorism youre just not allowed to say it.

Oh god, finally someone said it. Every time I see words like “jihadist” I want to scream, but I’m not Muslim, so I wasn’t sure I should say anything. 

Jihad means struggle. It doesn’t mean holy war or anything like it. In fact, there is no word in Islam for holy war, because the nature of Islam does not leave room for holy war. Islam has a juridical system, not a Pope who can just say “Go wage holy war.” Conflating the personal nature of jihad with violence is so very gross and it needs to stop. Period.

Actually, there’s another word non-muslims in the media shouldn’t use:

Allahu Akbar. It’s not a statement of terrorism. It means “god is great”. It’s something we say to praise our lord. It’s what we say when we pray. It’s not a statement of terrorism. Allahu Akbar doesn’t mean terrorism stop using it as one

It would seem that there is in fact a way to force an evolution of your Eevee. The Eevee Brothers from the original anime were named Rainer, Pyro, Sparky and they owned a Vaporeon, Flareon and Jolteon respectively. If you nickname your Eevee either Rainer, Pyro or Sparky, your Eevee will evolve into that desired Eeveelution!

Sparky = Jolteon

Rainer = Vaporeon

Pyro = Flareon

I thought this was bullshit, but people in the local PokeGO community are reporting a 100 percent success rate, including a dude who named all six of his Eevees Sparky, and all six evolved into Jolteons (thanks, dude).

So I’m willing to try it and pass it along. 

i did this last night with Pyro and it worked. heard from a local player it worked 12/12 times for him and people he knew. i think it’s legit

Today’s mental health reminder: a relapse, a sudden series of attacks, a string of awful days, (or whatever your step back may be) does not decrease your value. Take your time, do some self care, reflect on the progress that you have made. You are strong; one step back is nothing when you look at the journey you have already made.

Shout out to all the aces who don’t care that much about their asexuality.

To the ones who don’t talk, think, or read about asexuality that much.

It’s ok that your asexuality isn’t a huge part of your life.

You’re awesome and I love you.

To add:

Don’t feel bad for not always being an advocate or an activist.

Your identity doesn’t have to be a political statement. Your identity is just who you are. 

Advocate and participate in activism if you want. But it doesn’t make your identity any less valid or worthy of respect if you don’t.
