The Department of Homeland Security's Office of the Inspector General posted these photos of overcrowding at the Rio Grande Valley concentration camps in Southern Texas
The conditions are reportedly so horrible that detainees are overflowing their toilets on purpose to get out of their cells.

So I used to have a Russian friend who had a pretty thick accent and like a lot of Russians tended to eschew articles. She would say things like “Get in car.” And stuff.
Well one day this asshole who had been kind of tagging along with us asks her why she talks like that because it makes her sound dumb and I still remember her response word for word.
“Me? Dumb? Maybe in America you have to say get in THE car because you are so stupid that people might just get in random car, but in Russia we don’t need to say that. We just fucking know because we are not stupid.”
One time I was proof reading a paper for a Russian student. As I was correcting her paper with her, the many mistakes in her grammar started weighing on her. I asked her what was wrong, and she said, almost sobbing,
“In Russian I am so intelligent and clear. In English I am like [an] idiot”
Respect to anyone trying to master a foreign language. I get so sad thinking about that student.
Full offense but people who make fun of someone else’s accent or belittle their limited vocabulary when they’re speaking a language not native to them are fucking disgusting and are just begging to be punched.
They’re speaking your language because you don’t know theirs. That’s not something they should be made fun of, it’s something that should be commended because learning a language is hard fucking work.
I hate people who do this so much.

things i’ve learned at stanford
things are not always what they seem. you think you know who you are going to be in college and what you’re going to be good at and what you’re going to avoid, but you’re wrong.
Big and Momentous events are few and far between. it’s mainly a lot of filler that you have to mine for the important stuff (and what you think of as important in the moment may not be, and what you shrug off may come back to be huge).
the days are long, the weeks are short.
people say things they do not mean. they know they do not mean it. the ultimate challenge is not to take this personally.
just because someone is intelligent does not mean they are a good person.
conversely, just because someone is not the stereotypical version of intelligence does not mean they are not profoundly interesting and talented
you will learn a lot from people you have nothing in common with, but you will be closest to those with similarities. aim for a balance of both. if you can find someone who is similar to you in one key way (background, interests, personality, etc), but differs in the others, you will never run out of things to share.
you get used to things. weather below 65 degrees becomes cold. sights that brought you to your knees become ordinary. classmates that do astonishing things are commonplace. this will sometimes make you feel good, because it means you are familiar, but you also resent the parts of you and everyone else that takes all of it for granted.
a lot of organizations – clubs, classes, jobs, internships – don’t require a huge amount of skill, but they talk about it in a way that blows up their ego and makes them seem very important. you will wonder, “that’s it?” nothing is as official or gatekept as you think it is and you are more qualified than you think.
you’re only an impostor if you act like you are. you need to develop a sense of self or you will be eroded.
personal vulnerability is a cheat code to emotional closeness, especially to people who do not often talk about their feelings.
you cannot do everything. you cannot be everything. it’s zero sum in some ways because whatever you do means you are not doing something else. don’t put all your eggs in one basket, but also don’t put one egg in ten baskets. put most of your effort in a few things and develop those skills, and if you have any spare time left, look for outside fulfilling hobbies.
you will learn how to criticize and pinpoint what you do not like. other people will not like this, but you will get what you want.
some of your anxieties will go away, and you will develop new ones.
people will move on quicker than you wish they would. don’t expect too much from anyone, but don’t let that make you resent them.
jealousy is a toxic emotion.
college will make your real home less of a home. wherever you are, you miss somewhere else.
you’re all you’ve got. use it.
if many people don’t like something about you, consider whether it is worth changing. you are not objectively correct and you can be made better.
don’t build things up in your head. you will set yourself up for disappointment.
homes are not always stable communities, they can be a person, an action, a series of landscapes, yourself.
homes do not always keep you safe. you will not always keep yourself safe. sometimes you will not be aware of this.
people saying they care and showing it are wildly different.
reading can solve almost anything.
if you are struggling to find your passion, remember what you loved as a child before you were told what to love.

If Goldilocks tried three beds, then Momma Bear and Daddy Bear slept separately. Baby Bear is probably the only thing keeping the family together.
You ain’t have to put those people business out like that.
Y’know, the story straight-up tells us why Mama Bear and Papa Bear sleep in separate beds: they have very different needs in terms of mattress firmness, and those fancy responsive mattresses that can be soft on one half and firm on the other hadn’t been invented yet. There’s no shame in valuing your spinal health.
The fact that they’re secure enough to admit that they’re better off in separate beds probably indicates that they have a very healthy relationship built on a foundation of mutual love and respect.
their relationship was just right

Oh. My. God. I just found out about this movie called “In Between” which follows the lives of three strong, independent Palestinian women. And get this: one of the main characters is an ARAB LESBIAN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I’ll repeat it in case you didn’t hear me scream: THERE IS A MOVIE ABOUT AN ARAB LESBIAN!!!!!!!!
And not only is this the first Arab movie I know of that focuses (and I’m gonna say it again) on ARAB LESBIANS!!!! the actress herself is gay in real life and is an awesome woman who has been known for her art and work before. Her name is Sana Jammalieh and in case you don’t know her, I strongly suggest you check her out.
Representation Matters!
it’s amazing how straight people think teens don’t need a movie like love, simon when the director who is married and has been out for 20+ years cried when he saw the final movie because even he needed this movie. his husband also cried, countless lgbt teens have cried. one of the main actors came out because of this movie. many of the actors have friends that came out because of this movie, nick’s little brother came out to him after he found out he was doing this movie. i do not want to hear another straight person talk about this movie because frankly y’all will never understand what coming out is. so like shut the fuck up and let us cry and laugh our hearts out with a movie that loves and supports all of us. and that knows coming out will never be easy or a once in a life experience.

please help me escape arranged marriage
my name is naima and i’m an eighteen y/o somali lesbian in desperate need of help. over the past few months i have been under the impression that my family is warming up to the idea of me not being what they want me to be. unfortunately this is not the case and i believe the only way out is to escape as they have now resorted to basically treating me like a prisoner and promising me to a man instead of letting me go to university as they promised. i have no funds of my own and to even think of escaping and surviving the first few weeks i desperately need money. i have to use ko-fi since it’s the most anonymous of ways and my father has found out what i do online before (i had to remake my tumblr). despite everything i do not wish any harm on them. i simply want to part ways. i don’t have a lot of followers but if any of you is willing to help i will forever carry you in my heart.
