Blind Expectations →
This is a group for awesome (legally) blind people like you to share your expiriences. As students, we sometimes go through hard ordinary stuff (is that an B or Dj? is this really the largest you can…
This is a group project I and a student from Brown have been working on for about a year on and off. Last summer was extremely busy so I haven’t had the time to give it the attention it...

why does this post bother me so much
i was saying that in the comic it isnt literally outlines “oh this is my girlfriend.” “those two are lesbians.” etc.
I liked that it was not important for it to be labeled. It was just understood. That is what I found beautiful
why do people love the ~purity~ of something ~unlabeled~
maybe it bothers me because being able to label myself...

do blind people dream?
erisabesuunee:

ok im wondering if this is like a serious question or a joke like something to be cute?
But if people really wonder about these things…
Yes. We can dream. Because it’s only our eyes that are different and not out brain.
kylegcsumusic:
I have kinda realized that I am not really anyone’s type of guy. You never hear someone say something like, “I would love a guy that is legally blind, unable to drive, a slightly bigger person, awkward, and so loud he could wake up a deaf person.” Well, at least I can sing… kinda.
Hey. S’up.
I don’t think people generally list “able to see really well”...

iDrinkLotsOfCoffee: Thoughts on the Yahoo! Thing →
edwardspoonhands:
First, I love Tumblr and want to keep loving it. And yes, it is immediately terrifying to hear that Yahoo (which, from a lot of our perspectives, is a laughably backwards and culturally irrelevant company) is going to own Tumblr. I sympathize.
But there are a number of…

Best Tumblr Themes Part II
Founder.
Built on Foundation, it’s a gorgeous responsive theme.
Fixed uses the beauty of suble parallax scrolling.
Beaded Bright. All of Tendencia’s themes are amazing. This one is quite different from the others she’s produced. It really shows how she’s grown as a web designer. It is highly customizable, comes with unique features like extra boxes.

The fact that you can't tag asks
I mean, yeah I could just take a screen image of it or copy and paste it in a text post but then it completely ruins the point of having ask posts in the first place.

Back to my point on Global warming.

I think it’s great either way, but you should be at the weight that naturally suits your body, say, if you were eating a healthy diet and exercising regularly.

To begin to answer those questions, we’ve initiated this online survey of LGBTQ folks working in STEM. If you’re queer, have completed at least a bachelor’s or technical degree, and are working in STEM in any capacity — grad school, the tenure track, corporate R&D, the nonprofit sector, or science communication — we want to hear from you, and we need your help to collect a...

elleusine asked: It's your CSS - remove the "padding: 5px" from a:hover and your high-res photos will stop moving. Seems like only the high res photos have links, which is why they are moving, since a:hover affects them.
himitsuhitori asked: It's me again, you can find it under tumblr name "qwerqshoppe." It seems to only shift when hovering over the single-image hi-res posts.
himitsuhitori asked: I wanted to install your "The Writer's Blog" theme on one of my blogs. I quite like it, but is there any way to make the posts stop shifting every time you hover over them? Thanx.

Theme retirement for Purple and Blue?
It’s my first Tumblr theme (I mean like my VERY FIRST BB) and like IDK. But it’s ugly as fuq and ohmygod don’t get me started on the code kk, like it’s before I knew how to organize (wtf is that?). I wanna get rid of it but at the same time keep it for posterity. Prbly not getting rid of it.
