"i feel besquintled", said no one ever. because that's not a word.

[paranormal-taters]

okay nevermind it IS a word now and this is exactly what it means.

EVERYONE SHUT UP AND LOOK AT THIS NEW AND BETTER WORD

[transsexualpuffin]

i genuinely don’t know how to explain to some of you that the USA isn’t the Source Of All Evil in the world in a way that you’d actually understand it

[transsexualpuffin]

things you can say about the USA:

it’s run by a fascist

it’s been trending further right for years

it needs serious reform

things you can’t say about the USA:

it’s unique in any of the above mentioned issues

it’s the most right wing or conservative place on earth

it’s Uniquely Evil

[transsexualpuffin]

there are places where honor killings are legal and queer people get the death penalty and you can’t sell property to people of a certain ethnicity and virtually everyone is part of a singular religion. the supreme court just upheld birthright citizenship, something most countries don’t even have.

please understand that the rightward trend in US politics is alarming but mischaracterizing the US as the Worst Place On Earth is just fucking dumb as shit!

Learning that you were confidently wrong about something many many times is very frustrating.

As a know-it-all kid I told people "actually, Orcas aren't Whales, they're Dolphins" so many times and the Orcas are Dolphins part is true, but unfortunately all Dolphins are phylogenetically also Whales. So I spread misinformation widely and confidently.

But I didn't do it on Porpoise.

I'm so bored of people pretending that using a stereotype is only bigoted if it's explicitly applied to all members of a marginalized group. "I didn't say all Jews are greedy whiny emasculated parasites who control the government with their money, I just said Zionists are." Guys.

if people within an organization/party refuse to set and enforce boundaries for what is and isn’t acceptable behavior — policing, if you insist — then they are complicit when it gets hijacked.

I love seeing Jax in the recent ad just acting like we didn’t watch him brutally abstract and reminding me of this meme

[smallpwbbles]

Sorry I had to draw this real quick.

It's been a while since I said "this person wins the internet", but today it is merited.
