Abandoned Cottages in the Woods Overtaken by Animals

In a series titled Once Upon a Home, photographer Kai Fagerström captured the new residents of abandoned cottages in the woods. After residents had passed away or relocated, a group of feral animals took over the spaces. In a story published for National Geographic, Fagerström captured the “wild squatters” in a handful of derelict dwellings near his family’s summer home in rural Suomusjärvi, Finland.

Gay marriage became a demand so that partners of those with AIDS could have adequate visitation rights in hospitals. Gay people fought against housing discrimination because people with AIDS and their partners would be evicted to literally die on the street when they contracted HIV....

To me, saying “no woman deserves to be beaten, not even a porn star” doesn’t reflect how sensitive you are, or that you can somehow tap into the deepest wells of your humanity to find sympathy for a young woman who got the shit beaten out of her by someone she loved. “No woman deserves to be beaten, not even a porn star” says that you consider “porn stars”—or, more broadly, sex workers—as somehow distinct from or inferior to most “normal” women. “Not even a porn star” says you think porn stars are evil and dirty and basically subhuman, but when one of them endures an experience as brutal and terrifying as Christy Mack’s assault must have been—well, you can find it in yourself to summon up the empathy you would’ve otherwise reserved for a “normal” assault survivor.

how to tell if someone is awful

they demonstrate a minimal-effort, bare-minimum level of consideration for your feelings only after you’ve publicly shamed them into it

allthecanadianpolitics pictures from Toronto’s Pride parade today. I tried to keep this photoset as political and Canadian as possible. Pictured from left to right are: 1. Cyndi Lauper on the float for Kinky Boots- which premiers tonight in Toronto. 2. Pussy Riot from Russia. 3. John Tory walked in the parade when previous mayor Rob Ford refused. 4. This lady was protesting carding and had the hashtag #blacklivesmatter on her wing. 5. Lots of police and other emergency services personal were in the parade. Like LOTS. 6. Amnesty International. 7. This First Nations group had a huge eagle float that I couldn’t get a picture of because it was so huge. 8. Justin Trudeau walked by- the Liberal party had the biggest group in the parade. The PC party was so small I missed it! 9. NDP! A slightly smaller group than the Liberals but they were the only party who also had a booth and we’re out in the rain giving out pins and stickers.

America’s greatest shame in 2015 is not a piece of cloth. It’s that a black boy has a life expectancy five years shorter than a white boy. It’s that the net worth of the average black household in 2011 was $6,314, compared with $110,500 for the average white household, according to census data. It’s that almost two-thirds of black children grow up in low-income families. It’s that more than one-third of inner-city black kids suffer lead poisoning (and thus often lifelong brain impairment), mostly from old lead paint in substandard housing.
