So glad I can finally learn all the differences.

Shoutout to Larry Wilmore and comedycentral for allowing these lessons on the tellytube.

If you’re not watching the Nightly Show, you’re missing out on some quality, intelligent, and hysterical programming.

because babies don’t have object permanence, that baby believes those balls are being destroyed from existence and created before his very eyes. if you thought that too, you’d likely have a similar reaction

[ultimatespiderwoman]

lol what an idiot

[boneyardchamp]

Your professor will not be happy with you if he says the Stanford Prison Experiment shows human nature and you say it shows the nature of white middle class college-aged boys.

Like he will not be happy at all.

[cannon-fannon]

For real though. That experiment. Scary shit.

[septemberpoems]

someone brought that up once and my teacher (can’t remember which one) was like

no

nonono

[hollowedskin]

This reminds me of a discussion that I read once which said Lord of the Flies would have turned out a hell of a lot differently if it was a private school of young girls (who are expected to be responsible and selfless instead), or a public school where the children weren’t all from an inherently entitled, emotionally stunted social class (studies have shown that people in lower socioeconomic classes show more compassion for others). Or that the same premise with children raised in a different culture than the toxic and opressive British Empire and it’s emphasis on social hierarchy and personal wealth and status. And that what we perceive as the unchangable truth deep inside humanity because of things like Lord of the Flies and the Stanford Prison Experiment, is just the base truths about what happens when you remove any accountabilty controlling one social group with an overwhelming sense of entitlement and an inability to feel compassion.

^could never have put it better. bolded for emphasis.

i marked this broken fan so i could set it in the hallway and one of us would remember to throw it away tomorrow but i immediately got really sad because it makes it look like it absolutely hates itself

[trishathebrown-deactivated20190]

Oh, that beautiful woman there? The one decked out in gorgeous Indian attire? The one coolly ignoring all the racist slurs and utterances of horror crawling along the walls of some godforsaken Waffle House? The one who could not give less of a damn if someone gapes at her audacity to bask in the glory of her culture?

That’s my mother. Hell yes, I’m proud.

[vypera]

I don’t understand how a fucking waffle house is demeaning. Oh, you mean the white people behind you and your mother? I get it, dude. “Lets scrape together some bullshit story to sell to SJWs for attention”. This shit works almost too well.

[trishathebrown-deactivated20190]

You are actually not the first person to voice this sort of sentiment, so I will try to further explain the context of this picture, and you may decide for yourself if you want to believe me. 

 My entire family was traveling that day to a far-off venue for an Indian ceremony, and we stopped at Waffle House for a bite to eat. My mother and I were dressed similarly in ornate Indian outfits called “lehengas,” and my father and brother were dressed in regular Western clothes (nice pants and shirts). My father and brother entered first to get us a table, and it was after my mother and I went in that the atmosphere changed considerably. Normal conversation died down to a quiet buzz, and the other customers viewed us with a medley of expressions ranging from surprise, to confusion, to disgust, to scorn. Only a group of black women openly admired our outfits, and they absolutely gave me a huge boost in much-needed confidence. 

The man whose face you see behind my mother was responsible for making comments regarding “fucking immigrants” and “goddamn terrorists dressed like clowns.” His commentary was met with quiet murmurs of agreement from his table-mates, and he spent the rest of the time balefully looking either at me or the back of my mother’s head. Upon encountering such hostility, I whispered to my mother that maybe we should leave and eat elsewhere. Her response? “You have nothing to be ashamed of. They mock us because they do not understand us.” 

And with that, she sat down with a smile and cheerfully gave the waitress her order. 

 I posted this photo as a testament to my mother’s dignity and unwavering pride. She is a living, breathing inspiration and I cannot explain how much that one day helped build my resolve to remain true to my culture and roots despite possible adversity. I posted this image for neither notes nor followers, but the abundant existence of those aspects proves that many people understand the reality of the situation. Of course, whether you believe this or not is entirely your predilection. All you have to go on is my word, but I have said all that I feel is necessary. 

 Thank you for your time.

[guacamoolie]

Like do they not know that a Waffle House is the hot spot for redneck backwoods bigoted white folks ? The story is 100% believable.

[notshani]

YES. Keep on clearing up the facts. Do not let smear posts keep going. (Plus the true story is wonderful and people should know about the Peace Train.)

I’m sincerely honored to announce that hitRECord has been invited to take part in the National Park Service’s 100th anniversary celebration. Throughout 2015, we’ll be making art inspired by the 400+ parks found all across the US. The art we create will support the #FindYourPark campaign, marking the 2016 centennial of this awesome institution.

BE A PART OF IT

I’ve gotta say, I love the story behind this organization. Since 1916 they’ve been preserving our nation’s most beautiful natural resources & monuments - places Yosemite National Park (where I’ve spent a bunch of time camping w/ my family), Yellowstone, the Everglades, and the Statue of Liberty. These places could’ve become shopping malls without these folks. It’s amazing that 100 years later they’re still doing the great work of protecting these national treasures for us.

To kick things off, anyone and everyone can come share their art and ideas for this campaign. You don’t have to be from the U.S. to contribute, and we’ll be working on a wide range of projects — music, writing, animation, photography and more!  In 2016, fifteen of our more polished collaborations will be distributed through the Find Your Park campaign. Details to come on what these pieces will be as things unfold, but for now - if you’ve got an idea, now’s the time to get involved!

Check out a full list of every national park, monument, and historic site that the National Park Service oversees HERE

I’m really looking forward to seeing what we create together for this one, and am extremely proud that the National Park Foundation has provided hitRECord the opportunity to celebrate this milestone.

Thanks again <3
