i learned that in the 1880s, the Harvard Observatory director was frustrated with his staff, and would say “My Scottish maid could do better!” So, he hired his Scottish maid. Williamina Fleming ran a team for decades, classified tens of thousands of stars, & discovered white dwarfs and the Horsehead Nebula (x)

“She became one of the founding members of the Harvard Computers, an all-women cadre of human computers hired by Pickering to compute mathematical classifications and edit the observatory’s publications.

The group included Harvard computer and astronomer Henrietta Swan Leavitt, Annie Jump Cannon, Williamina Fleming, and Antonia Maury.”

The point of supporting POC isn’t to piss off racists, it’s to support POC

The point of supporting Jewish communities isn’t to piss off antisemites, it’s to support Jewish communities

The point of supporting Muslim communities isn’t to piss off islamaphobes, it’s to support Muslim communities

The point of supporting mentally ill people isn’t to piss off ableists, it’s to support mentally ill people

The point of supporting disabled communities isn’t to piss off ableists, it’s to support disabled communities

The point of supporting trans women isn’t to piss off TERFs, it’s to support trans women

The point of supporting the LGBTQ community isn’t to piss off queerphobes, it’s to support the LGBTQ community

This is important because if you’re doing something good just to make a hateful person angry, than you stop doing that good thing the second you stop getting a reaction from those hateful people.

Your first priority should be to help the people who are in need because they are being hated. The hateful people don’t matter. You’re not supposed to do it for them.

some people think i learned braille for Cool Points but i actually learned it bc my medicine holder has the days printed in braille and i forget to take my medication a lot. i didnt feel like turning on a light one night just to see my medication so i learned braille out of spite. now everytime i go anywhere i have to read the braille signs and i have seen “woman” misspelled as “noman” SEVERAL times.

Ok dude its not they going to kill them like the Nazis calm down geez

[learningtoacceptchange]

If we do nothing now, we’re going to find out in a hundred years that they did. And then it will be a hundred years too fucking late.

Shut the fuck up and don’t look away.

[smitethestate]

A few months ago people were like “relax the immigrant detention centers aren’t going to become concentration camps.” People doing nothing and making excuses for their inaction and trying to convince others to do the same is exactly how death camps happen.

[hickeywiththegoodhair]

also people have actually died in there, due to ICE’s abuse and neglect. and those numbers are just gonna keep rising because bootlickers like tumblr user cutebearfrank say stupid shit like “it’s not so bad jeez” and look the other way so like DOUBLY SHUT THE FUCK UP

The Nazis didn’t start building the gas chambers in 1933, they started using them eight years after gaining power. When the Nazis got into power, Hitler never said that he was going to commit genocide or try to murder all the Jews in Europe. The Nazis never said that they were going to build gas chambers. What they said was that the Jews were the cause of Germany’s decline, the lose of it’s empire, the failing economy, etc and they were going to stop that. They left it to to interpretation to how they would meet that end. Just like building a wall or banning Muslims, all the Nazis gave were the same vague statements that were easy to grasp and helped root the idea in people’s minds.  

By the way, the photo of Himmler up there was taken in 1942, nine years after the Nazis assumed power. The one of Pence is taken three years after Trump did.

Bill Nye for most of his career: Imma do science for kids. Science without politics. Nice, tame science for the kiddos.

If I could offer a young person advice about anything it would be do NOT make life decisions based on your boyfriend or girlfriend. Girls especially. Do NOT stay close to home for him, do not skip opportunities to travel or study abroad, do not pick a safe college to be with him. Expand your horizons. Broaden your own life. He is not the world.

[phosphorescentt-deactivated2015]

I want everyone who disagrees with this post to come back to me in a couple years and tell me how that shit worked out.

[prolifeproliberty]

Note: if your relationship can’t survive a semester or a year apart, it’s probably not going to survive the rest of your life.

Also, if your SO can’t be supportive of your education/career goals, they’re probably not the right person for you.

college professor just said “you’re probably too young to even remember this” and brought up something that happened in 2011

Better than my professer that said we’d “probably recognize this from Saturday morning cartoons” then showed us a cartoon from 1935…

New immortal vs. old immortal

[silver-tangent]

I’m just gonna say it. If you think a razor company saying “Rape and misogyny aren’t manly traits” is an attack on all men, or some sort of leftist feminist propaganda; then you are fucked up. The fact that a video standing up to bigotry has 90% dislikes makes me feel absolutely disgusting.

If you’re not terrified that 90% of people felt personally attacked by an ANTI-RAPE, ANTI-MISOGYNIST message, then you’re not paying attention.

And if you think the ad is anti-male; you can stay the fuck away from me because I don’t wanna be a man like that, and I don’t wanna not be a man around people like you…
