My favourite part about the Black Death is that all of Europe were facing social collapse, and then you had a Jewish community in the middle of Poland living in prosperity, who kept away from the city wells and always observed proper cleanliness, so they were effectively immune to the plague
The Catholic Church did not like that, of course
reminder that amazon workers attempting to unionize in Bessemer, AL (USA) are asking the public to boycott from today (mar. 7) until mar. 13! amazon has been putting in its best effort to quash union efforts [article], but workers are persistent in fighting for their right to join RWDSU.
the boycott includes all amazon entities: amazon(.)com, prime video, whole foods, alexa/echo, etc.
Their boyfriend proposes to them and the first thing they do is get the ring checked to see if the diamonds are real or not... toxic
Bruh it’s a crow
“Put him on his knees give him something to believe in” has the exact same energy and depth of meaning as anything Hozier puts out on the regular but since it’s sung by Megan Thee Stallion no one takes it seriously. In this essay I will-
To flesh this out a little bit more: both Megan Thee Stallion and Hozier write and sing really sexual songs, but they’re different in that Hozier’s music is typically “let me worship you” while Megan’s is usually “I’m worshipping myself,” which makes all the difference because it’s an acceptance of power rather than the giving of it. He’s the sinner, she’s the saint. However, taking their difference in genres out of it, people don’t usually seem to take Megan Thee Stallion’s music seriously in comparison to Hozier because a) her lyrics are more overtly and blatantly sexual and b)she’s claiming her sexuality for herself, and that scares a lot of people. The secret, no-one-wants-to-talk-about reason is that she’s a confident black woman, which terrifies people way than sex does. In conclusion, Hozier and Megan Thee Stallion are two sides of the same poetic, sexual coin, but people just don’t want to admit it. Which is WHY a collaboration between Hozier and Megan would be so powerful that it would change the timeline as we know it yes I will elaborate
Because normally they are 🙃

hi. I can’t tell you how many times as a disabled person I have minimized my own needs in order to do something with a non-disabled person. Many disabled people don’t share their needs out of fear that their disabilities are too much. bye. [/end ID]
God I really wish carrying stuffed animals around with you was socially acceptable
I don’t mean to take over a post, but I actually did a project on this for my sociology of deviance class in college!
I carried a large stuffed rabbit whenever I went in public for about a week to observe the reaction of others. The point of the project was to do something harmless yet unusual to see if the action would be considered deviant, in which case someone had to try to correct or shame the behavior.
Long story short, nobody tried to correct my behavior. I was asked about it casually, had a few lingering stares thrown my way and when I was with my boyfriend, shop employees would direct questions to him instead of me. However, nobody refused to assist me when I was alone in a store, nobody said anything about the rabbit besides “oh, thats a cute bunny!” and I attended college classes without even a teacher questioning it.
In conclusion, it is socially acceptable to carry a stuffed animal, its just not a societal norm. ^^

DOING IT
My friend gave me a stuffed monkey plushy when I was struggling with uni, and I took him everywhere for like four years, usually velcrod to my backpack. No one said a damn thing, except my renaissance professor who saw it one day in the hallway and cracked the fuck up because I had a literal monkey on my back and he just looked at me like, “oh god, me too”. I used to leave him on desks during classes and exams (the monkey, not my prof). It was my reminder that someone cared if I was coping. But more than that it was soothing to have something to fidget with that wasn’t a pen. I used to ping those fucking things across the room I was so agitated. Harder to hurt people with a projectile stuffed monkey.
I got what I thought was a normal screen cleaning kit for my computer while I was in college. Much to my delight, instead of a little washcloth or whatever, the kit came with a tiny stuffed pig.
So I carried this pig in my backpack all through college, periodically taking it out, spraying my screen, and using the pig to wipe it off.
Now, I kept the pig in the side pocket of my bag where he was completely visible.
Then one day in screenwriting class I pulled him out to wipe my screen.
One of the guys sitting next to me looked appalled. “You’re wiping it off with your little stuffed animal??”
I explained what the pig was.
Turns out, the guy had noticed it and just thought it was adorable I carried a stuffed animal with me every day. He’d never mentioned it before.
Honestly, people do not care, and will not say anything. No matter the reason for your little stuffed animal friend.
And if you’re still really nervous about it keep a stuffed animal keychain on your bag. I have a cute little frog that stays on my backpack so when work gets stressful I can squeeze it.
For my anxious followers.
Confirmed. I take my Venom tsum tsum to uni when I need a little mental boost. The little goo always brings me good luck and overall makes my day just a tiny bit better. I haven’t received a single comment about them so far.
Bring your stuffed buddies to class/work/whatever, guys. People don’t care.
I have a couple of Ikea sharks* and have had cause to periodically carry them around in public - one of which I bought with the last $15 I had at the time, after making a series of big life changes. “This is frivolous and I don’t have to care about that because I’m getting paid shortly—I’m going to do it!”
The reactions I get range from amusement through delight and “WHERE DID YOU GET THAT” but so far, never disapproval.
The moral of the story is Carry Your Emotional Support Plushie With Pride, You Deserve It.
*pictured: not my shark
true story: I once had an appallingly awful day at the hell job and it coincided with my giant squishy Baymax being delivered from China, and no lie I hugged on that Baymax to keep from crying until it was time to leave
I travel with DC (”Don’t Care”) the Emotional Support Honey Badger. I go through TSA with him attached to my backpack, I hug him when I sleep in transit, I prop him next to me in cafes in cities, towns, and rural areas. The only time anyone’s ever so much as raised an eyebrow at me was the TSA agent who recognized what he was, and asked it he could get his picture taken with him.
People don’t judge. Kids think you’re awesome. You get a companion who never judges you. It’s all win.
I know probably everyone has seen this post already, but its too good not to reblog.
Don’t be afraid to carry your comfort items around with you! :D I take some of my stuffed friends to work sometimes, and no one ever bats an eye at them!
*looks at my pink teddy bear I named Ruby* you’re coming to college with me and that’s not a choice
This post made me cry bcuz sometimes i feel bad for having stuffed animals/plushies
i needed this a lot
the boyfriend had to go to hospital two years ago, big heart surgery and he wanted something of mine so I gave him my stuffed Toothless which I’ve gotten from the BFF a while back. Toothless sat on his nightstand in three different hospitals, watching over him and nobody even batted an eye. some nurses asked about him, but that was all. He was there when he came out of surgery and has been HIS ever since. so yeah, carry your emotional support plushy with you. It helps YOU and that’s all that matters!!!
I take Tigz, the plushie Tiger I’ve had nearly forty years, with me on holiday because I can’t sleep without him. Every hotel I’ve stayed at I’ve come back to find room service have made the bed, changed the towels… And tucked Tigz up in the bed with his squashed little head on the pillow, or put him by the window so he can enjoy the view, or put in a comfy armchair with a book for company.
Seriously, if anyone takes offence to your plush, it’s their problem, not you. And IKEA sharks are AMAZING
I carry an emotional support chao plush with me everywhere, nobody cares

THIS IS A REAL FUCKING COFFEE AU AND THE GUY IS A SIDE CHARACTER
imagine your otp
Capital Police Officer Eugene Goodman, the brave man who was shown on video buying the people on the Senate floor time to escape. Photo by the New York Times.
Goodman facing off the surging crowd alone glanced to his left, saw that the senate was unguarded, and he shoved the white man in front of him knowing that the racist insurrectionists mob would follow him. And they did. He got to safety himself. There are few people in history that you can say have a claim to single handedly saving our country but he does.
And he weaponized their hate of his skin to do something that his service weapon and his uniform couldn’t have done.
Do not wait until the conditions are perfect to begin. Beginning makes the conditions perfect.
wow i love this
One of the truest things I’ve ever heard is that people who say they’re “brutally honest” are more interested in the brutality than the honesty.
THIS.
