To all my black followers and friends, stay safe.

Also, I would like to add that black lives have always mattered, will always matter.

It’s awful that we even have to say that because it should be a given. However, we need to say it loud and clear for the racists.

We cannot be silent.

As I am the master of procrastination, I am still studying even though it's just gone past 2am🤦🏼‍♀️

Why am I like this?

[frevin]

very ridiculous that i am expected to graduate college and then do something else after that

[raveezus]

Having someone understanding your mind, thoughts, emotions or even face expression, is REAL intimacy to me.

why did they give this line to the villain

[honey-harper-official-deactivat]

To make it seem like a bad thing to young girls

[beadubb]

But it’s legit some real advice.

Bitches need to take it.

It’s me…

I’m bitches.

[averagefairy]

ok can we agree that the WORST feeling is when you’re just sitting around consciously procrastinating and you’re just overly aware that each second that passes is more time wasted and you like watch hours pass and you’re STILL procrastinating and you CANT STOP and your panicked brain is trapped inside a body that refuses to be productive and inside you’re screaming but outwardly you’re just eating chips

EXTREMELY IMPORTANT

Do you see this image? Do you know what is happening? Well, I'll tell you what is happening:

THE AMAZON RAINFOREST HAS BEEN BURNING FOR 16 DAYS.

Sixteen days. Without any help or declarations of the Brazilian government. Our biggest form of animal and vegetal wildlife is being destroyed and no one is making anything about it.

São Paulo was covered by a smoke cloud this week during hours, as a result of the fire, if that single fact wasn't already alarming.

I lost hope in humanity. Because the trees are still burning right now as you read this text. Because no "famous environmentally friendly" person is talking anything about it. Because everyone else is too selfish to even care about the wellbeing of our own world.

Please, please someone help us

PSA

theres a new product by verzion called “hum” that allows your parents to track your car and places you go, if your parents are controlling like mine please check under your steering wheel to make sure that they havent installed this

[selfcarereminders]

here is what it looks like installed:

you can read more about it here, and here- this excerpt sums up what information Hum will send: 

“a car’s owner will be able to get notified on their phone when the vehicle leaves a pre-determined area or drives faster than a set speed… [Hum] will enable location tracking and a driving log, which measures travel times, engine idle times, and average speeds.” 

[misangremellama]

People in abusive relationships, please check your cars.

[misangremellama]

DO NOT TRY TO UNPLUG IT BY YOURSELF!

[tassiekitty]

To add to this nightmare, I’ve just heard of a thing called ForceField where people get to monitor and block internet sites that you’re going on if they don’t approve.

It tells the user what sites/apps you’re going on, for how long you’re on them, and WHERE YOU ARE ON AN UPDATING MAP.

So you know if you’re in an abusive household and use sites like tumblr to escape and talk to friends, you could be cut off from that.

They say “it’s not spyware” but it sure sounds controlling and creepy to me.

God. Fuck. That’s scary.

[everywitchway-deactivated201905]

Life 360 is another tracker. My parents have used it on me, not allowing me to delete it from my phone, and sometimes even demanding selfies to prove I was where the map said. (As if I’d go anywhere without my phone)

[beerune]

SpectorPro is another one. Afaik it can’t track location, but it takes screenshots roughly every 20sec to allow the installer to watch a video of your computer activity. It also tracks all keystrokes, so passwords aren’t safe, and records any website you visit + the duration. It’s incredibly creepy and a huge violation of privacy, and was one of the cornerstones of my abuse as a kid.

[sugarseros-deactivated20221026]

even if you’re not in an abusive relationship/family, please spread this because you might have just saved someone’s life

This is so wholesome 🙊

My girl spoke nothing but fucking TRUTH. Now that’s this kind of Women we need our girls to look up too.

[ladygreytea76]

Who is she?

[enigmazing-blog]

Sarah Kendzior.

She’s an expert in authoritarianism and has accurately predicted almost everything that is happening - her unflinching insight and analysis is terrifying but invaluable right now. Well worth following on twitter.

[anosci]

fucking

why did i never see this until now

[thessalian]

You know what saddens me?

How fast she has to talk.

If a man were saying that, he’d be going slowly to emphasise points. He’d be indulging in the occasional ‘you know’ or other filler words. He’d be able to stop for breath. Notice that she didn’t do that. She had the whole thing memorised and she got it out with barely a pause to breathe.

Why?

Because she expected to be interrupted.

What she said was awesome and is absolutely true, and is frankly underlined by the fact that she had to say the whole thing all at once for fear that she wouldn’t be able to say it at all if she so much as stopped to breathe because one of those older white men sitting around her would interrupt and roll right over her.
