I write and reblog about: LGBTQIA+ stuff, race and ethnicity, neurodivergence, tv shows, and minority history. Ok to reblog. [she/her/hers]

Guillermo is the best Mexican American representation on tv I have ever seen in my lifetime. Not the big details that are specific to him, duh, but all the little details. We even order water the same way.

But I'm a Cheerleader (2000) - movie available for free on YouTube about a high school cheerleader who gets sent to conversion therapy by her parents. I’m 20 minutes in and it seems interesting so far. We are definitely supposed to be on the side of the cheerleader.

It’s rated R but it seems PG-13.

This reminded me of a story from my youth.

When I was a freshman in high school, my class (the freshmen) got the most cans for a food drive. Part of our prize was that the principal hired a comedian to come do a set for us. He was actually pretty good and I really enjoyed it. I wish I could remember his name or anything about him except for the end of his set.

His last joke was “And before I go, I have one more joke for all the psychics in the audience.” and held his microphone to his forehead for a couple seconds.

I thought it was clever, and I have a really easy laugh, so I laughed.

I was the only one who got it. And the only one who laughed. At the joke specifically for the psychics in the crowd.

And anyway, that’s why my entire high school thought I was psychic for like a month.

WHERE HAVE YOU BEEN ALL MY LIFE

[ccbytheseashore]

I feel like I just reblog this every time it is on my dash, with hope that one day I will stop being such a goof about sewing buttons.

[ilwinsgarden]

You mean someone don’t do it like this?

[actuallyclintbarton]

Yeah I was taught to just sew them flush against the fabric. It didn’t work as well as I thought it should…

[deadcatwithaflamethrower]

Yeah, I’m so downloading a copy of this post because buttons and I do not like each other.

Have people learned about the Charisma on Command YouTube channel? It’s like a social interaction training channel, with tips on how to deal with various situations. It’s interesting to see human behavior broken down and analyzed like this.

Reductress is the best site, no you can’t change my mind.

I was just going to reblog this, but then I went to the site and now I’m wheezing:

Rootin’, tootin’, toil n’ shootin’

Fire burn and cowboy bootin’

Eye of newt and spicy beans,

Toe of frog and denim jeans,

Whiskey, grits, n’ demon spittle

tossed into my iron griddle

With the tannin’ of our hides,

Somethin’ wicked this way rides

[serendipiteaart]

Not that anyone asked for this but

[fat-mabari]

everyone asked for it they just didn’t know they did

[gildedgryphon]

That feel when it’s 40°C (104°F) outside and you’re a bird who can’t sweat. Big tubs of ice help a little, though.

[justbirdpoop]

omg… you don’t understand how happy this video made me

You know what? This actually isn’t funny at all because this really does happen. Baby boomers can’t afford to retire; that’s a big part of why millennials can’t find jobs in their fields. And if they lose their jobs (which can mean a variety of things, including their companies finding an excuse to fire them so they don’t have to pay anything for their retirement, which happened to my uncle and 5 people he worked with over one year), they aren’t as desirable because they’re retirement-age. The world has changed a lot since they got jobs they thought were supposed to be secure, and now their old strategies that used to work for finding a job don’t work anymore and they don’t know what does work. So a lot are desperate; I recently talked to a woman who had to be in at least her mid-60s who was begging on a street corner because she was replaced by a younger person and lost her job of 18 years, and it’s not the first time I’ve heard a story like that. A lot of people who were never rich to begin with lost a lot in the 2008 financial crisis and never fully recovered. Baby boomers didn’t all just magically become financially secure as they got older.

This generation war bullshit is 100% manufactured to keep our anger misdirected. It’s not baby boomers screwing over millennials. It’s rich capitalists of every living generation screwing over baby boomers, their parents, gen x-ers, millennials, and gen z-ers all at once and all in different ways. And if we collectively realize that we’re not enemies and that we actually have a common cause with common enemies, it’ll be really bad for the people doing this to us, which is why they’re pushing the generation war thing so hard.

The Jews who were arrested for occupying an Amazon store on August 11 were given September 30, the first day of Rosh Hashanah, one of the holiest days in the Jewish year, as their court date. This is in NYC, the city with the highest number of Jews in the world and where Rosh Hashanah is a city wide recognized holiday. All public schools and colleges in NYC are closed on that day.

[rannulfr]

People reading this as “They will miss their holiday.” Are correct, but only seeing part of the picture. It will be more difficult for these Americans to have “A jury of their peers” if their peers are forced to choose between their jury summons and their cultural devotion to their faith. This is not only despicable, it’s unconstitutional.
