OK WAIT SO IF POC GET STRICTER SENTENCES IN COURT⦠AND IF WOC ARE MORE AT RISK OF MISCARRIAGE AND GENERAL MALPRACTICE⦠AND IF SEX EDUCATION IS WORSE IN INNER CITY PUBLIC SCHOOLS⦠AND IF RACIAL HOUSING DISCRIMINATION IS PRACTICED BY 85% OF REAL ESTATE AGENTS⦠AND IF SCHOOL DISTRICTS ARE FUNDED VIA PROPERTY TAXES WITHIN EACH DISTRICT⦠HOLD ONā¦ā¦ā¦. WAIT A MINUTE
This is what we mean by systemic racism
consider: teenagers arenāt apathetic about everything theyāre just used to you shitting all over whatever they show excitement about
Teen: *gets a job*
āI GOT THE JOB!ā
Parents: Well, when I was your age, I already had 5 jobs and was supporting my family
Teen: *gets all Aās*
āI worked really hard!ā
Parents: Well, of course you did, this is the expectation, not a celebration.
probably why so many teens take to social media where they can enthusiastically share their interests and achievements and get positive feedback that their parents never gave
A LITTLE LOUDER FOR THE PEOPLE IN THE BACK
This hit hard
I remember once, when I was in my early 20s, I was an afternoon supervisor at my job, and I worked with mostly teenagers, and the one day this one kid, who was like 15, was bored so I suggested he could clean out the fridge. He did and when he was done I said he did a good job.
After that, this kid was cleaning out the fridge at least once a week, and I was like, āwhy are you always cleaning the fridge?ā Like, I didnāt mind, but it seemed odd. And he said, āone time I cleaned the fridge and you said I did a good job. I wanted to make you proud of me again.ā
Literally, I changed the entire way I interacted with teenagers after that. I actually got a package of glitter stars and I would stick them on their nametags when they did a good job, and they loved it.
My manager had commented on how hard these kids work and I said, ātheyāre starved for positive feedback. They go to school all day then come to work all evening and no one appreciates it because itās expected of them, but theyāre still kids. They need positive feedback from adults in their lives.ā
Like, everyone likes feeling appreciated. Everyone likes being complimented and having their efforts be noticed. Another coworker (who was a mother of teenage children), hated that I did this, and said they were too old to be rewarded with stickers, but like⦠it wasnāt about the stickers. The stickers were just a symbol that their effort was noticed and appreciated. I was just lucky that I learned this at a time when I was still young enough to remember what it was like to be a teenager. I was only 2 years out of highschool at that point and highschool is fucking hard. People forget this as they get older, but ask anyone and almost no one would ever want to go back and do it again, but they expect kids to suck it up because theyāre young so they should be able to do school full time, plus homework, and work, and maintain a healthy social life, and sleep, and spend time with family, and do chores and help out at home, and worry about college and relationships and everything else, and then just get shit on all the time and treated like theyāre lazy and entitled. And then they wonder why teenagers are apathetic.
For a german exam I had to argue against an article that was essentially ākids these days, they donāt care about anything and are constantly on their phonesā and really it was the easiest essay Iāve ever written.
Teens donāt talk to adults bc adults only ask āso, howās schoolā to then interrupt them two sentences in. And because they canāt engage in a conversation about buying houses and working in a bank. I wouldāve loved to talk about philosophy and politics and history with family the way I did with friends and in class but because I was young no one took what I had to say seriously.
And no, teens arenāt always on their phone. Theyāre on their phone when theyāre bored. You think Iām on social media when Iām with my friends? When Iām talking about something Iām interested in?
Maybe the reason kids are so distant and always on their phone during family parties and the like is because youāre failing to engage and include them.
Whoop there it is
When you respect kids, they really respond and learn from you. But if you treat kids like ātheyre just a kid, what do they know??ā then youāll never find out.
As a Disneyland Cast Member, Iāll add my own experience onto this ā
Very frequently, when I first speak to a child while Iām at work, theyāll kind of withdraw and act uncomfortable and shy. Their parents will then rather frequently tell them to not be shy and try to coax them to talk to me ā whenever that happens, I always, without fail, politely dissuade the parents from pressuring them.
āIām a stranger,ā Iāll tell the kidās parents. āI donāt blame them for not talking to me ā if they were anywhere else, theyād have the right idea, to not immediately trust me.ā
I cannot tell you how many times Iāve seen that same kid ā simply after hearing their initial reaction being validated, instead of reproached ā immediately open up to me after that. I also cannot tell you how many times that child and I would go on to start a frigginā marathon conversation, and I got to hear all about how great their day was or what their favorite Disney movies were or what rides they liked and didnāt like or how much they like a certain Disney character or songā¦all from me validating that initial feeling and showing genuine interest in what they had to say.
This isnāt just young children, either. I will always remember being positioned outside the Animation Academy one day and starting up a conversation with a young lady, perhaps 12 or 13, who joined the line with her father a full 25 minutes before the class was supposed to start. Now keep in mind, we do a drawing class every 30 minutes: there was no one else in line at that point, and no one else joined the girl and her father in line for a full fifteen minutes. So I could tell pretty quickly that this girl was very emotionally invested in getting a good spot for the drawing class: a conclusion all the more bolstered by the fact that she had a notebook under her arm. I asked her if she was an artist ā she said yes, but seemed uncomfortable at the question, so I skipped even asking her if I could see her work, instead admitting that I myself wasnāt very good at art, but that Iām trying to get better and that I love the history of Disney animation. On the screens around us was video footage of different Disney concept art and animation reels, so I pointed one of them out (for Snow White) and asked if she knew the story behind the making of the movie. Upon confirming that she didnāt, I proceeded to get down on the floor so I could sit next to her and her father and dramatically tell the whole story of how āUncle Waltā created the first full-length animated motion picture, even though everyone and their mother thought he was an idiot for even trying, and how the film ended up becoming the first Hollywood blockbuster. After the story was over, the girlās father said that his daughter really wanted to be an animator when she grew up, and she finally felt comfortable enough to open her notebook and show me some of her artwork. It was wonderful! Every sketch had such character and you could tell how much work she put into it! And I could tell how much telling her that ā and sharing that moment with her, where we got to connect over something we both really enjoyed ā had meant. And after the class was over, she sought me out to show me what she and her father had drawn ā and sure enough, hers was great! (Her fatherās was too, really. XD)
People, kids and teens included, love sharing what they love and how they feel with others. You just have to give them the chance to show it.
A LITTLE LOUDER FOR THE PEOPLE IN THE BACK!
-~-
I feel like I am obliged to add one more thing: donāt ever think that the kids wonāt feel your unspoken judgements cause they do!
I felt always like a āproblemā in my family, until I was about sixteen, I got this teacher who was litterally the first to tell I was worthy. He changed my life up till this day.
Also how do grown ups imagine how āweā will ever learn to engage in conversations with adults properly if you donāt teach us?
This post is
Everything
I told one of my new coworkers (who is 26) that he was doing really well and that I was proud of him and his progress. I thought he was going to start crying for how quietly he saidĀ āreally?ā.Ā
Positive feedback makes the biggest difference to everything.
no no, I realise it, Iām just still driving despite the check engine light being on

Move in together. Problem solved
That witch hasnāt said a single word but im calling it now - Himbo.
Also yes move in together, platonically or romantically doesnāt matter, Iād watch the hell out of that wlw mlm solidarity fantasy sitcom anyway.
A fair maiden knocks on the goth ladyās door and says sheās here to find love.
The goth sighs, points across the road and says, āWitch is over there. He doesnāt do love potions because consent but he might be able to make you prettier, although 90% of the time it turns out the spell didnāt do anything but make you more confident.ā
The maiden blushes and sheepishly explains that she knows heās the witch, she just talked to him and he sent her over here.
Goth looks over her shoulder to see the himbo witch standing outside his house giving her a grin and a double thumbs up.
YES TO ALL OF THIS
Password sharing is not piracy any more than loaning your friend a DVD or watching a movie with your family is piracy. The service is already paid for. Execs just consider sharing to be eeeevil because they canāt exploit every individual person.Ā
if they tried to invent libraries today it would get shut down

yeah Iām still salty.
Bless these women and bless this article. Read/see more here.Ā
Iām not even going to lie, up until this instant I thought something was wrong with me (maybe that i was theĀ āugly kind of fatā?) because I didnāt think plus sized models were retouched so much. I know that sounds stupid, but I have never considered the reality that even the models of fat women are heavily doctored.Ā
Same shit, different numbers.
Hey look itās my catsuit!
not only are plus size models heavily retouched, but they also have to wear padding to make their curves curvier so that we hate ourselves for not having exaggerated curves on our beautiful lumpy bodies.
This is super important and belongs on my fashion blog. Donāt you ever feel ashamed, because your fat doesnāt look like the model fat! Itās the fashion industries fault for not being able to dress actual people!
itās back
will this never get explained to me???
what is happening
Explanation:
They are shooting the scene in Desolation of Smaug where Kili and Tauriel are having their first real conversation in the dungeons.
In the scene, they talk about a party happening upstairs (something about the stars, I canāt remember). Legolas is supposed to be seen staring at the two of them in jealousy ācause he likes Tauriel.
Orlando, however, chose to make this glorious blooper happen by wearing a party hat and calling them sluts.

WAIT, THIS WASNāT A FUNNY EDIT?!
A lady asked me how much it cost to make her a purse of a well known style in cotton fabric of a particular design and colour. Ā£35 - I said. She said she thought that was a bit dear for a purse. I asked her how much she thought it would cost her to make one then. She thought about Ā£10 as you can get similar in Primarni for Ā£8 OK, so for Ā£10 do it yourself I said Her reply was - I donāt know how to. I said for Ā£10 Iāll teach you how to. So besides saving you Ā£25 youāll get the knowledge if you ever want to make another. She seemed pleased and agreed. OK I said, youāll need a machine, cutting mat, rotary cutter, rivet press and the pattern. Oh wellā¦.. I donāt have many of things and I canāt justify buying all that just to make one purse. Well then for another Ā£10 more Iāll lend you my stuff to you so you can do it at my house. Okay, she says. Great, I replied, come round on Tuesday afternoon and weāll make a start Oh, I canāt come on Tuesday Iām having my hair done! Sorry, but Iām only available Tuesday to teach you and lend you my stuff. Other days are busy with other bags and purses. Bugger, that means Iāll have to miss my haircut. Oh, I forgot, I said, to make one yourself you also have to pay for the sundry costs. Now sheās confused ā what on earth are they?? Fabric search time, electric, wear and tear on the machine, blades for the cutter etc She looks at me and says ā but thatās ridiculous you can absorb all that cost as you are charging me to borrow your stuff. I could, I said, but Iām not spending time looking for the fabric you need you can do that yourself ā you need 3 fat quarters of fabric, buckram, woven interfacing, non woven interfacing, a lock, rivets and matching thread. So she then says - Iāve been thinking, I think Iād rather pay you the Ā£35. Itās too complicated to make one for myself, it wouldnāt be as well made and it would cost me a hell of a lot more than Ā£35. When you pay for a hand crafted item, you pay not only for the material used, but also: - knowledge - experience - tools - services - time - enthusiasm Only by knowing all the elements necessary for the production of a certain item can you estimate the actual cost.
