Run And Remember

I am addicted to cookies and cappuccinos, and I think I'm better at writing than I actually am. I used to be really afraid of the color pink and the connotations it would bring to other people's perception of me, but I recently discovered that I actually love pink, and people that try to put me in a box because of it are missing out. I can be kickbutt and feminine, all while rocking a beanie and sweatpants. 21 years old, grad student, and married to my hero. Escapee from depression, and forever body positive. Currently trying to learn to cook healthy, because filling my body with junk is making me tired and grumpy all the time. I overcommit. Self Care is important to me. I blog a lot of encouragement based stuff, nature stuff, humor, faith, and fandoms like Doctor Who, Harry Potter, and The Paper Magician, because people don't talk about The Paper Magician as much as they should. My inbox is always open. Don't fill it with hate. I use this blog to spew whatever's on my mind, or what captures my eye. XNFP/Blue

Things about the hp fandom

Your Hogwarts house is THE most important thing

Separated into two halves: people who think Severus Snape was a good person, and people who think he was a bad person

A ton of ship wars: Hinny? Drarry? Harmione? Romione? Dramione? What?

In general, collectively dislikes the plot of cursed child

Everyone hates Umbridge™

“…I had a really terrible crush on Tom Felton. We love a bad guy, he was a few years older and he had a skateboard. And he used to like do tricks on it…he was so cool…”

“RAMPANT” Big boogeyman in your cubicle. *rolling eyes* How about dress professionally or better yet, don’t spend your fertile (and literally most attractive) days in jobs in the first place? Oh you can’t NOT work? Then DRESS PROPERLY, you freaking irresponsible moron!

You are an idiot.

This whole post is a mess. The idea that porn is turning men into violent sexual assailants is ridiculous. Telling women not to work or implying that men can’t control themselves if a woman is dressed too provocatively is also ridiculous.

[switch-up-snowfox]

Also enough with the completely baseless connection of “porn” and “violence.” A decent amount of porn isn’t even violent, not every single video is BDSM.

Ruby Bridges was the first black child to desegregate the all-white William Frantz Elementary School in Louisiana during the New Orleans school desegregation crisis in 1960.

This movie made me cry, I was so heart broken by how Ruby Bridges was treated! She was only 6, but was so strong. She is a very brave girl and she did not care what the white folks called her.

People are simply disgusting to minimize people by skin color!

Ruby you might not think you’re a hero… But to other people you are! You are A HERO and you are A PERSON WHO MADE AMERICA CHANGE!

[caliphorniaqueen]

this is white culture, this is their history, this is their legacy…being enraged at a damn baby just because she’s black.

she’s still alive by the way

Ruby Bridges in 2010 

“As Bridges describes it, “Driving up I could see the crowd, but living in New Orleans, I actually thought it was Mardi Gras. There was a large crowd of people outside of the school. They were throwing things and shouting, and that sort of goes on in New Orleans at Mardi Gras.“ Former United States Deputy Marshal Charles Burks later recalled, “She showed a lot of courage. She never cried. She didn’t whimper. She just marched along like a little soldier, and we’re all very very proud of her.“ 

U.S. Marshals escorted Bridges to and from school

As soon as Bridges entered the school, white parents pulled their own children out; all the teachers refused to teach while a black child was enrolled. Only one person agreed to teach Ruby and that was Barbara Henry, from Boston, Massachusetts, and for over a year Henry taught her alone, “as if she were teaching a whole class.”

Every morning, as Bridges walked to school, one woman would threaten to poison her; because of this, the U.S. Marshals dispatched by President Eisenhower, who were overseeing her safety, allowed Ruby to eat only the food that she brought from home.

Another woman at the school put a black baby doll in a wooden coffin and protested with it outside the school, a sight that Bridges Hall has said “scared me more than the nasty things people screamed at us.” At her mother’s suggestion, Bridges began to pray on the way to school, which she found provided protection from the comments yelled at her on the daily walks.”

THIS SHIT WAS ONLY 58 YEARS AGO. PEOPLE WHO PARTICIPATED IN THIS RACIST TERRORISM AND ACTS LIKE IT ARE STILL ALIVE, AND THEIR KIDS ARE IN THEIR 40′S AND 50′S. 

DON’T LET RACISM APOLOGISTS GET AWAY WITH “WHY ARE YOU LIVING IN THE PAST,” BULLSHIT ARGUMENTS. WE ARE LITERALLY STILL DEALING WITH THE FAMILIES THAT FORMED HATE MOBS OVER BLACK CHILDREN ATTENDING SCHOOL WITH WHITE KIDS.
