“This video of this adorable little girl encouraging her Dad while he tries to do her hair, is just what we needed to brighten up our day.” [X]

[Dad: How’m I doing on your hair? Child: Good! Dad: Let’s see, do I need more grease? Child: Yes. You need more grease on there. Dad: More grease? And then what? Child: And then you gonna need to brush it, and then you put a band on there. Dad: A band on it? Child: Yeah! Dad: Aww.. Child: You’re getting it through! You’re almost done! You’re doing a good job! Dad: Aww, thank you, sweetheart, so much! Daddy’s trying, doing the best I can. Thank you so much. Child: You’re welcome! Dad: I’m almost done! Child: You been doing great! Dad: Aw baby, thank you so much, you’re so encouraging to Dad. Thank you. Child: You’re welcome. Dad: I really appreciate you so much. You’re so awesome. Daddy getting your ponytails ready for school.]

I don’t wanna hear a damn thing from white people about “accepting our new president” after the way some of y'all reacted when Obama was elected.

BUT CAN WE TALK ABOUT HOW BILL CLINTON MOUTHES “THAT’S MY GIRL” CAN WE FUCKING TALK ABOUT THAT. 

[timgy]

Listen, I voted for her, but in my heart I don’t know that I’ve had many moments of truly liking or admiring her. But this moment? This poise? This complete self-control (in a situation where sexist men would expect her to be falling apart)? I have never been prouder or more admiring of someone. I agree, Bill. That’s our girl.

[uponthepages]

❝And to all the women, and especially the young women, who put their faith in this campaign and in me: I want you to know that nothing has made me prouder than to be your champion.

Now, I know we have still not shattered that highest and hardest glass ceiling, but someday someone will — and hopefully sooner than we might think right now. 

And to all of the little girls who are watching this, never doubt that you are valuable and powerful and deserving of every chance and opportunity in the world to pursue and achieve your own dreams.❞ —Hillary Clinton’s Concession Speech, 2016

Even if you hate the candidate that won, you still have to respect your president.

This is fucking heart breaking

look at the difference. i dont even have to say it

[tshifty]

when i say “unfollow me if you support trump” im not saying it ironically. no, seriously, if you support trump then i dont want your disgraceful ass to be in any way associated with my blog. get out.

[tshifty]

trump supporters are getting mad keep reblogging

[tshifty]

it’s really telling to read the comments on this post about people bitching about how “this is mean” or “this is childish”, about how “you should respect everyone’s opinions”. i respect all opinions as long as they do not question the validity or equality of a person, and trump’s entire campaign is built upon kicking people down to rise to the top. this is not a normal election, and has absolutely nothing to do with political party. trump is a rapist, a misogynist, a white supremacist, homophobic, islamophobic, transphobic, ableist, sexist, and above all selfish. so no i do not want people who support that to be following my blog, and if you’re offended by that maybe you should think about how offended the rest of us are that you protect such terrible “values” that aim to destroy our equality. eventually you’re going to have to stop living in your fairy tale world where everyone gets along despite one side wanting to take away the rights of the other; if you want to take away the rights of me and my friends, then i refuse to have anything to do with you.
