this is his etsy store. he’s selling prints and also the papyrus paper !
having a warrant is not a death sentence. running is not a death sentence. resisting is not a death sentence. fighting back is not a death sentence.
if you were tried for these things in court, you would not be sentenced to the death penalty, would you? of course not.
so why is it okay to justify the murder of black people at the hands of police because they might have been doing these things??
the answer is, it’s not.
in the end, it doesn’t fucking MATTER if daunte wright had a warrant out. it doesn’t matter if he ran, if he resisted, if he struggled.
he was murdered. plain and simple.
Holy fuck
Here is an article about this bullshit
..............
They're really out here with this mess, here's the BILL (green highlights are what's added)
happy autism acceptance month, asperger's is still an ableist and useless term
[ID: a Simpson's character gesturing towards a sign that reads, "Don't Forget: Asperger was a eugenicist Nazi that sent autistic children to their deaths." End of ID]
It's okay if you didn't know! We're a severely misrepresented community and many autistic people themselves are uninformed about a lot of things about our own community.
It's just really important to be receptive about things that our fellow autistics say are harmful towards autistic people. Please listen.
DNI if you still use/defend the term Asperger's. It's okay if you didn't know until you saw this post, but please stop using it. Just say autism. It's not a bad word.

Because treating people fairly often means treating them differently.
This is something that I teach my students during the first week of school and they understand it. Eight year olds can understand this and all it costs is a box of band-aids.
I have each students pretend they got hurt and need a band-aid. Children love band-aids. I ask the first one where they are hurt. If he says his finger, I put the band-aid on his finger. Then I ask the second one where they are hurt. No matter what that child says, I put the band-aid on their finger exactly like the first child. I keep doing that through the whole class. No matter where they say their pretend injury is, I do the same thing I did with the first one.
After they all have band-aids in the same spot, I ask if that actually helped any of them other than the first child. I say, “Well, I helped all of you the same! You all have one band-aid!” And they’ll try to get me to understand that they were hurt somewhere else. I act like I’m just now understanding it. Then I explain, “There might be moments this year where some of you get different things because you need them differently, just like you needed a band-aid in a different spot.”
If at any time any of my students ask why one student has a different assignment, or gets taken out of the class for a subject, or gets another teacher to come in and help them throughout the year, I remind my students of the band-aids they got at the start of the school year and they stop complaining. That’s why eight year olds can understand equity.
I remember reading somewhere once “we should be speaking of equity instead of equality” and that is a principle that applies here me thinks
I will reblog this every time it shows up on my dash, because, frankly, the world cannot get enough reminders.
One of the more rage-inducing things neurotypicals do is spend years drilling it into you to pay attention to what’s being implied instead of only what’s stated, but if you start to develop that skill and use it to point out when they’re being subtly shitty to you, they react like you’re just making shit up to slander them, doesn’t matter how thoughtfully you explain how you got to that conclusion, doesn’t matter how much benefit of the doubt you give them, the only response they will ever give is "but I did not say those literal exact words so obviously I could not have meant or been thinking anything like that. Stop putting words in my mouth"
They THOUGHT they wanted me to read between the lines and understand what they weren’t saying, but then they realized that what they actually wanted was for me for to simply behave in the ways they expected without having to communicate those expectations to me.
Understanding leads to opinion having, and they never like it when I have opinions on How They Do Things.
gays be like "omg how do you know what models of car are" when literally every car in the world has their make and model plastered right on to it
Uber: "I am arriving in a grey honda civic"
Gays: "Omg what the fuck how do I tell what that is"
The literal back of the fucking car:
“memorize the differences between these you stupid fruit”
A truly moving story via Gregory McKelvey. Removing police from schools is an urgent need, especially for Black students.
i think its sooo good when bears just have a little sit. when they just sit down on the grass and just hang out that rules
this is what it’s all about folks
love watching a movie and then coming on here and reblogging some gifs of what i watched like i’m making a little announcement about where i’ve been

This was………………. the drag of the century

Okay so in case y'all don’t know, this is from Pose. A series about the black trans community and ball culture in new York during the 80’s. Its got vogueing, lgbt+ culture, history, drama, romance, comedy, tragedy. Its wonderful and historically accurate and all the trans people are played by real trans actors.
ITS TIME TO STOP

HAHAHA WE HAVE REACHED PEAK MEME

WE’VE HIT TERMINAL MEME
@caesarianconfection
I’ve said “I hate this” so many times on this website, and never actually meant it, because “I hate this” is just shorthand for ‘this is an example of a meme given a twist I wasn’t expecting with intent to surprise’. Which is, in of itself, a meme on this site. God damn it.
But this… This is something else.
The rapidity of a meme’s introduction to its zenith to its decline is so rapid that in ten years, you’ll need a damn twenty-page manual to explain this. It’ll be as unfunny and hard to explain as jokes in Shakespeare plays, except even more inexplicable because fuck, at least Shakespeare’s jokes are usually about anal or fucking your mother, good wholesome sex jokes we can all get behind.
For the love of fuck, how do you explain loss.jpg? How do you explain gun?
….I THOUGHT THIS WAS A YMCA REFERENCE
it is a YMCA reference - that’s one of the 6 memes being represented here
ok let me see if i can break this down easily. YMCA is the easiest place to start - the song itself has become a meme over time with people changing the lyrics to reference other pop cultural events. so YMCA is meme one (1)
this first lyric replacement (”take the breadsticks and run”) is a reference to the tumblr meme ‘stuffing breadsticks into my purse’. i think everyone remembers that one so i wont bother to explain it. that’s meme two (2)
“man door hand hook car door” is a meme of its own, a creepypasta from i dont remember when. it was a terrible stupid retelling of the generic ‘stuck in a car while hook handed man tries to kill us’ story so the stupid title caught on for memorability. that in and of itself is meme three (3)
‘gun’ is… yeah i dont know how to explain gun. long story short you add gun to the end of a phrase instead of what you expect the last word to be. its shock funny. its everywhere but its popular to add to “man door hand hook car door” for.. some reason? gun is meme four (4)
and the thing is, this four meme combo is something thats gone around before. meme combos are, itself, a meme. which means taking this meme combo and mixing in another meme actually becomes meme five (5)
which leaves us at loss.jpg. loss.jpg was a terrible bad comic supposed to be about some tragic event, but it was presented so poorly literally no one takes it seriously, and for some reason recreating the four-panel setup has become popular. so thats meme six (6)
(but i need to add that this is the greatest version of loss.jpg i think i’ve ever seen. the initial ‘young man’ lines up with the guy bursting through the door, and the shock meme ‘gun’ matches the shock scene of the woman in the hospital and idk if OP even thought about that but it makes this just so much better)
I wasn’t going to reblog this, but @pagesofkenna‘s comprehensive meme-by-meme annotation is a thing of beauty and should be shared.
average tumblr post contains one meme, this post, which contains six, is an outlier and should not be counted
it might also just be a coincidence due to loss.jpg’s format but the whole white minimalist four-panel setup is also suspiciously reminiscent of those early 2000’s rage comics
I was getting a political compass vibe too
tag urself im man door hand hook car gun
This works better than I thought it would.
This was in my senior project
I’m not sorry.

THIS FUCKING THREAD I’M GONNA CRY
I LOST IT AND MAN DOOR HAND HOOK CAR GUN AND DIDN’T EXPECT MORE I’M SOBBING
M E M E T E N
A phrase like ‘Everyone remembers this, so it requires no explanation’ is exactly the kind of bullshit that makes historians miserable.
