ARE WE FUCKING SERIOUS

[socialistexan]

Yes, this is real.

Not to sound fucking alarmist, but uhhhhhh if Trump forcing immigrants to wear yellow insignias wasn’t enough of an alarm bells for you, maybe this is.

Think about all the people who fought but were killed and there was no one left to tell their story.

@lydianski perhaps it will comfort you to know that we know many of the stories https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jewish_resistance_in_German-occupied_Europe

Witnesses say they asked Britney why she shaved her head and her response was, “I’m tired of plugging things into it. I’m tired of people touching me.”

i can never not reblog this

[britneyjustin]

T-Pain: “That was the most beautiful thing in the world. Do you know why she was shaving her head? Because it was so important to other people. She is like, “Listen. Don’t touch my hair anymore. Stop touching my hair.” People were like, “We’ve got to make your hair before you go outside. You can’t leave.” She went … “Now I don’t have hair. What you going to do?”

The older I get the more her breakdown seems less ‘unbalanced’ and more ‘completely understandable’

[saundering-deactivated20180828]

it’s because other people told you she was unbalanced at a point in your life when you didn’t have the life experience or wisdom to understand otherwise

embrace the unapologetic love of media you had in middle school before everyone decided it was cringy. go rewatch the cheesy animes that you liked. go rewatch old episodes of doctor who or supernatural or whatever. reread the hunger games or percy jackson or something. wear ultra positive graphic tees that look bad. read/make group chat fanfics of series you like. its fun and cringe is dead. enjoy shit

‪GOD I found another article about why ADHD kids say “I don’t know” so much. my entire childhood was getting yelled at for doing some ADHD shit and me not being able to offer an explanation when asked why I did something. ‬

[the-v-gees]

I’m literally not allowed to say I don’t know when my mom is yelling at me for something because “it’s not a real answer”, and almost every time I feel the need to say it it’s to articulate one of these things. I wish people understood this.

[bonkwater-deactivated20200922]

holy shit THAT is an adhd thing??

[creekfiend]

I wonder if people who get caught up in pushing for "more legal consequences" for people with "fake service dogs" know they're being tricked into chipping away at the ADA

The ADA is written like that on purpose. Our disabled activist elders were not stupid. They knew that the extremely lax rules might be easy to exploit and they made it that way anyway because they would rather have people exploit them than have ANY DISABLED PERSON be gatekept out of exercising their legal rights by being forced to jump thru hoops.

[creekfiend]

It's always going to be preferable to have some airhead lie about their little terrier being a support dog so they can get it on a plane for free than for ANY person who is disabled in ANY WAY to be kept from exercising their (STILL REALLY REALLY LIMITED, TBH) rights as laid out in the Americans with Disabilities Act.

Always.

Things cartoon writers seem to think are VERY VERY FUNNY that I never found funny even as a small child:

Hippies

Inflation

Drill sergeants

Anybody meditating and making that “ommmmmmm” sound

Cross dressing even before I was old enough to know it was also just mean

Imitations of celebrities with no additional joke about why they’re there

lol only weird boring dumb old sissies get that into art and especially ugly nonsense modern art, right kids????

That same joke but with poetry

That same joke but with interpretive dance

That same joke but with musicals

Actually aren’t all those things also gay stereotypes? Is that how they became comedy cliches? Jesus.

Any “battle of the sexes” episode

The nerd uses a “science word” that honestly most of the audience probably knows but we’re supposed to think they’re lame and weird and the other characters are like “….IN ENGLISH PLEASE”

Diapers

Bagpipe music

A character getting attached to a pet to a degree we’re supposed to find excessive and sometimes it’s supposed to be funny that it dies

Anyone’s hard work being destroyed (???)

[beaky-peartree]

i see a frightening amount of ads for Scientology on youtube and i just wanna make sure everyone knows how dangerous it is. it’s not some misunderstood religion, it really is a dangerous cult and a scam. they will bleed you dry of your money and harass you to no end, do not give them your money or any information they can and will destroy you financially and psychologically

[kephas-rolling]

That’s the problem with the Overton Window:

The more the window moves to the right, the more any move to the left will be seen as “radical”. This video from Vox explains things perfectly. If you keep on inviting and giving the floor to right-wing pundits and politicians in your shows, the more people will be desensitised to some off the awful rhetoric that can spewed on air.

It’s also a matter of media responsibility. They’re afraid of being accused of being biased against the right/far-right, so they invite them to have a “balanced” account of events. 

The responsibility is not solely on politicians - some have adapted to a new political field, others have  been consistent in their beliefs - media have to be held responsible for giving airtime to racists and fascists without questioning their actions for one minute.

Not to sound like a 90s shallow prep, but how you dress can affect your self esteem, and putting energy into wearing things you actively like and projecting an ideal of yourself through fashion instead of seeing clothes as things you have to put on out of obligation helps.

It also can give you a sense of control over your appearance that you otherwise wouldn’t have lmao

[oak23]

I bought a cape because of this

[michaelmilkers]

this post is written in a humorous tone but this is the realest shit.

two years ago i wore baggy sweatpants and flip flops every day because i was depressed but then decided eh to hell with it and bought some black edgy emo clothes bc thats how i always wanted to dress but never got a chance to and it was only then that i realized that the sweatpants flip flops look was just keeping me in my depression funk. i didnt like the way i looked and i didnt identify with the clothes i was wearing and it only made me feel worse.

i then went through my entire wardrobe and got rid of everything that made me feel that way.

now i have multiple outfit possibilities requiring different levels of effort but on days where putting on clothes just seems like a project i just have to put on black jeans and a band t-shirt and i can still feel good about the way i look which is a really good way to start off my day.

i can not recommend this approach to clothing enough.

USDA Scientists Have Been Put On Lockdown Under Trump

"Starting immediately and until further notice" the department's main research division "will not release any public-facing documents," according to an internal memo.

Excerpt:

The US Department of Agriculture has banned scientists and other employees in its main research division from publicly sharing everything from the summaries of scientific papers to USDA-branded tweets as it starts to adjust to life under the Trump administration, BuzzFeed News has learned.

According to an email sent Monday morning and obtained by BuzzFeed News, the department told staff — including some 2,000 scientists — at the agency’s main in-house research arm, the Agricultural Research Service (ARS), to stop communicating with the public about taxpayer-funded work.

“Starting immediately and until further notice, ARS will not release any public-facing documents,” Sharon Drumm, chief of staff for ARS, wrote in a department-wide email shared with BuzzFeed News.

“This includes, but is not limited to, news releases, photos, fact sheets, news feeds, and social media content,” she added.
