Hey friends, I have started a blog and there is a new post up! ❤️

[nemmica]

I met a baby the other day who taught me that kids aren’t learning the thumb-and-pinky-out gesture for “phone” anymore. She puts her flat, open palm up to her ear and babbles into it, simulating a flat and rectangular smartphone.

It’s begun. We are now officially the last surviving generation of this ancient civilization..

[libraryspectre]

Do y'all remember being a kid and trying to read in the car while it was dark outside and your parents wouldn’t let you turn on the light so you would try to grab snatches of sentences when you passed by street lights

This is what happened.

You know, considering that Pony Head was a aware (or at least suspicious) of Star's feelings for Marco, her comment about Marco being good at "playing the field" back in Sleepover makes a lot more sense now.

Yeah! That line in Sleepover confused me, because I was sure that Pony Head didn’t suspect anything -even more since Star herself, at the time, didn’t know about her own crush either…

Either Pony Head is really good at understanding Star, despite her self centered personality (after all they’ve known eachother for, what, ten years?), or she just assumed that Star liked the dork, and happened to be right. Wouldn’t be that weird, for Pony: “WHAT? Star would rather spend time with the turd than with me? There has to be something going on here! Oh my gosh I’m sure she has like a crush on the Earthling!”

Well, gotta give credit to her then, since she was apparently the only one who called it, everyone else was shocked, not “Yeah it was obvious” “Everyone could see that.”

Come away, O human child! TO the waters and the wild With a faery, hand in hand, For the worlds more full of weeping than you can understand.

[spillywolf-deactivated20190920]

No, prolife does NOT have to mean anti death penalty. Believing that murderers have forfeit their right to live for taking another’s life doesn’t make you a hypocrite for believing that all innocent human beings have the right to live.

I don’t care if you are prolife and want to abolish the death penalty, just please don’t say that you have to believe that in order to be prolife.

Quick Tips for Relieving Stress

1. Go for a walk around the block – and even longer if you have the time.

2. Make faces in a mirror to reduce the muscle tension (and the chances are it will make you laugh as well).

3. Stretch – and loosen the muscles in the shoulders, neck and jaw

4. Make a thankfulness list.

5. Find a place to withdraw from everyone. Five minutes on your own can really make a world of difference!

6. Turn off your phone and any message notifications.

7. Switch off the inner critic in your head.

8. Look for humour in the situation.

9. Have a cup of herbal tea.

10. Eat a banana. It increases your levels of potassium (which are depleted in times of stress) and gives an immediate boost in energy.

March for the unborn, whose feet will never touch the ground

March for the mother whose ankles are swollen

March for the poor, whose feet get sore wandering the streets

March for the elderly, whose walking days are past

March for the disabled, whose feet need assistance

March for the prisoners, whose feet won’t travel beyond a chain link fence

March for the solider, who marched for you

March for the refugee, whose feet carried them from their war torn home

March for the beauty you see in every life, and your footsteps will turn to thunder calling to action those who believe that every life is worth living. March and demand that our government defund planned parenthood, abolish abortion, take care of our elderly, outlaw euthanasia, abolish the death penalty and work to improve the lives of the poor and disabled.

March for Life.

dont u love it when anti-choice people put real living disabled people with thoughts and feelings on the same level as fetuses

[that-catholic-shinobi]

Hello! I’m the author of this. My Name is Lavinia Love and I’m disabled.

I have turners syndrome, a genetic condition that causes infertility, short stature, learning disability and heart problems. Not to mention webbed neck and hands, difficulties in spatial relationships and the inability to go through mature sexually.

I also cannot sweat. I can’t get hot or I could die from the inability to cool down.

My disabilities have caused my lifelong physical and emotional problems. I’ve been bullied and harassed and ridiculed for both my disabilities.

What hurts worse is when my “friends” say that people like me are better off dead. We should have been aborted. That the abortion of the disabled is not ok.

When people don’t think we should help those with disabilities.

My life is beautiful. My life is great. Everyone I’ve ever met has a beautiful life, especially those disabled around me.

I’m not just putting the disabled in the level of the fetus, but all humanity. Because a fetus is human and deserves the chance to live

19 PowerPoint Presentations That Should Be In Every School Curriculum Ever

[anti-stuff-pro-stuff]

“lol lets make these innocent college students feel like they’re to blame for all my problems lmao”

[cisnowflake]

This is blatant racism. You couldn’t get away with this shit with any other race or demographic. If someome walked into a college class with a presentation titled “black people are a plague to the planet” or “how islam plagues society” their ass would be thrown off campus in a heartbeat. I’m so sick of the obvious double standards and hypocrisy coming from so called “progressives”.

[alaija]

Hypocrites going to hypocrite.

[unaffiliatedpangolin]

Doesn’t this count as “institutional racism”? It is racism that is being pushed in an academic setting. Unless the professors failed them for making a racist presentation or something. 

But if the professors allowed this and especially if they knew their students were going to make racist presentations then the people who are acting as representatives of the institutions are enabling racism. 

[alaija]

More or less. They also teach a lot of this bullshit at universities, occasionally even things like melanin theory get pushed. But you are counting on these people being capable of self awareness.

Also  Buzzfeed itself has institutional power. So Buzzfeed pushing this shit actually contradicts the standard apologia of “but prejudice against whites doesn’t have power!”, if it’s being backed by the media (Buzzfeed is hardly alone) then it clearly does.

[matt-ruins-your-shit]

Isn’t it funny how they all think they are clever and original and edgy when really it’s just regurgitating what their profs told them to think.

Soros: (tenting his fingers and laughing) “Yes that’s right white people are your enemy…nobody else. You’re so smart…hey you should start a revolution with this knowledge you discovered totally by accident. Yessssss.”

[conservativex-blog]

Their smug faces make no sense

[whittneydoll]

Feminism has given men even more power than they ever had throughout history. Men no longer have to solely provide for their families. Men no longer have to marry a woman in order to have sex with her. Through birth control men can have indiscriminate sex with almost as many women as possible without having to make a commitment to any of them.

Women once held quite a few cards in how men treated them and now we hold next to none. Even more upsetting: men are so put off on marriage due to no-fault divorce, alimony, etc… (and why get married when most women give men everything that used to be given exclusively through marriage within the first couple dates?) women who do want to get married and settle down have to fight just to prove their worth as a woman who will love and care for a man and birth his children and care for his home. In less than 100 years we have ruined nearly everything that once worked out so well for both sexes.

[anna-stronk-deactivated20180811]

That’s a very interesting way of looking at it!

[conservativex-blog]

I feel like we’re also trying to reverse the “roles” in a way: now we praise the strong businesswoman who doesn’t take any shit and works super hard, and we praise men who are willing to cry and wear makeup, and pink.

I’m not saying there’s anything completely wrong with either of those, but things that used to bring people joy like having a family and traditional stuff is getting pushed aside in favor of switching everyone’s places and believing that having kids is no longer necessary / boring

[twitterlols]

no but actually

Can we just raise our kids the good ole way? Let’s give them smallpox and spoiled raw milk

[celtic-pyro-deactivated20230725]

Imagine being the kind of person who equates smartphones and makeup to vaccines and pasteurized milk.
