Many lgbt teenagers and young adults growing up on the internet today have socially conservative beliefs that they voice at all times that they got from their conservative parents which they’ve never challenged because they think the life experience of being gay or trans makes them politically progressive

This is why I hate it when people say something homophobic and then go “so you’re really accusing me, a whole ass lesbian, of being homophobic 🙄” like yeah

“I think women like to read about murderous mothers and lost little girls because it’s our only mainstream outlet to even begin discussing female violence on a personal level. Female violence is a specific brand of ferocity. It’s invasive. A girlfight is all teeth and hair, spit and nails — a much more fearsome thing to watch than two dudes clobbering each other. And the mental violence is positively gory. Women entwine. Some of the most disturbing, sick relationships I’ve witnessed are between long-time friends, and especially mothers and daughters. Innuendo, backspin, false encouragement, punishing withdrawal, sexual jealousy, garden-variety jealousy — watching women go to work on each other is a horrific bit of pageantry that can stretch on for years. Libraries are filled with stories on generations of brutal men, trapped in a cycle of aggression. I wanted to write about the violence of women. […] I particularly mourn the lack of female villains — good, potent female villains…I’m talking violent, wicked women. Scary women. Don’t tell me you don’t know some. The point is, women have spent so many years girl-powering ourselves — to the point of almost parodic encouragement — we’ve left no room to acknowledge our dark side. Dark sides are important. They should be nurtured like nasty black orchids.”

Omid was a literacy teacher at Ketab Academic Center, on his way home fr… Bashar Mal needs your support for Afghan Teacher Killed & Leaves

this is my friends uncle, one of the teachers at ketab—an organization some of you might remember me posting about a few months ago.

ketab not only provides financial aid, personal supplies (clothes, food, whatever to accommodate the needs of the people in kabul), aid to displaced families, and medical supplies, but also nourishes the lives of the future generations in afghanistan. omid, the teacher mentioned, was my friend’s uncle. my friend, who started this beautiful organization. this fundraiser is for his funeral expenses, as he was the breadwinner for the family and his family didn’t have anybody else to earn income for them.

this is him teaching literacy to one of his many students. he was a kind soul, and refused to get paid the regular salary of a teacher as he wanted more for the students. please share this. for my friend, for the students, and for the family mourning. thank you all, and may God have mercy on him.

100,000-year-old Neanderthal footprints show children playing in the sand

Some 100,000 years ago, an extended family of 36 Neanderthals walked along a beach, with the kids jumping and frolicking in the sand, scientists report after analyzing the beachgoers’ fossilized footprints in what is now southern Spain.

“We have found some areas where several small footprints appeared grouped in a chaotic arrangement,” said Eduardo Mayoral, a paleontologist at the University of Huelva and lead author of the study, which was published online March 11 in the journal Scientific Reports.

The footprints “could indicate an area of passage of very young individuals, as if they were playing or loitering on the shore of the nearby waterlogged area,” Mayoral told Live Science in an email.

In June 2020, two biologists discovered the tracks on Matalascañas beach, in Doñana National Park, after a period of intense storms and high tides. Read more.
