A kid at work has decided that they don’t want to play with the kitchen set, and don’t want to play Barbies, but would instead rather take the them-sized stove and the Barbie-sized stove and pretend that they’re mommy and baby stoves.

The baby stove is currently at stove school, which is for stoves.

[c3rvida3]

The mommy stove is at work, and apparently makes soup for a living, which I know because this kid is has been chanting, “I MAKE SOUP AND I DO IT ALL DAY / EVERY SINGLE SOUP SECOND, EVERY SINGLE SOUP WAY,” louder and louder and higher and higher to the point where it’s now either being sung by the world’s loudest mouse or the world’s most out-of-breath six-year-old.

everyone forgot that mlk jr. said he hated white moderates

[pure]

he said white moderates were a greater stumbling block to freedom than the kkk. mlk jr said that.

[swtrgy-deactivated20250202]

yo can someone please tell me if this is accurate? Because that’s fucked up

[regularlesbian]

yes and he was right

[projectburnt]

read the thing for yourself https://web.cn.edu/kwheeler/documents/Letter_Birmingham_Jail.pdf

Most relevant paragraph 

“I have almost reached the regrettable conclusion that the Negro’s great stumbling block in the stride toward freedom is not the White Citizens Councillor or the Ku Klux Klanner but the white moderate who is more devoted to order than to justice; who prefers a negative peace which is the absence of tension to a positive peace which is the presence of justice; who constantly says, “I agree with you in the goal you seek, but I can’t agree with your methods of direct action”; who paternalistically feels that he can set the timetable for another man’s freedom; who lives by the myth of time; and who constantly advises the Negro to wait until a “more convenient season.” Shallow understanding from people of good will is more frustrating than absolute misunderstanding from people of ill will. Lukewarm acceptance is much more bewildering than outright rejection.”

[rev-krissy]

He wasn’t wrong. It is, sadly, still true today.

[blessedarethebinarybreakers]

“…who is more devoted to order than to justice; who prefers a negative peace which is the absence of tension to a positive peace which is the presence of justice.” We talk about this in seminary all the time: peace that is won by one side holding its foot on the other side’s throat is not peace. When we pray for peace, we must pray for peace with justice, never at the cost of justice, made by silencing the oppressed.

Fellow white people, don’t just reblog or share mlk jr.’s more palatable “hate cannot drive out hate” type quotes and ignore the fact that he also said challenging things like this. We must hold ourselves accountable. We must not be lukewarm. And there is never a “more convenient season” to act to secure rights for all people – the time is now.

Give me a heartwarming Christmas movie about Satan traveling around the world every Christmas to deliver presents to all the young kids and kids with learning disorders and disabilities who misspell “Santa” on their Christmas letters every year

[eccentricmisseclectic]

And Santa’s all like, “You know, I can handle a few spelling mistakes, I got this,” and Lucifer is like “They’re addressed to me, fuck off, I’m doing it.”

[incurablenecromantic]

Lucifer being protective of his fanmail is ceaselessly entertaining.

[pretentious-git]

Lucifer: hey big guy I need your list because I don’t know what these kids want for christmas and you’ve got all the info. Santa: this isn’t your holiday Lucifer: yeah well james here doesn’t fucking know that so give me the list, he asked for Satan

Projeto Identidade is a Brazilian project idealized by Noemia Oliveira and Orlando Caldeira. The project raises the question of the black representation in pop culture.

Can’t believe I’m defending a trump

I have no love for the tactics that Donald Trump uses in his campaign. He is a vile, scared bully unfit to represent our country at any level.

However, attacking his wife for her modeling career is gross. Shaming her for her nude photos is gross. Pitting her against (the glorious) Michelle Obama--no matter which one is portrayed more positively--is gross.  

I adore our current First Lady, and her achievements are astounding. It does her no service to tear down Melania in a side-by-side comparison. I don’t know why people think this is being supportive of any perspective other than hating women. Lifting up women is important but not when we step on others to do it. It’s beneath us, and that needs to stop.
