Picked up this little fuzzybutt from a slaughter yard this weekend. She was too small to go on the truck with the others without the risk of getting killed before arrival, so they sold her to me. She's been beaten and has marks all over her body, and she's terrified. But we're making friends. She'll be okay.
My goal is to enjoy life as much as my horse does.
Don’t Be That Guy.
Great campaign! Great point!
signal boosting the shit out of this
you can never NOT reblog this

You said it once before, that there was time to turn back if we wanted to. We’ve had time, haven’t we? We’re with you whatever happens.

And then you realize that Forrest knows about his condition all along and your heart breaks a little.
a little? A LITTLE?!
Why is no one mentioning how his eyes are filled with tears when he finds out his son is smart?! My heart.
His hand gestures to himself when saying ‘is he’, HE MEANS IS HE LIKE ME AND IF THAT DOESN’T BREAK YOUR HEART WHAT WILL.
The way that we learn about Helen Keller in school is an absolute outrage. We read “The Miracle Worker”- the miracle worker referring to her teacher; she’s not even the title character in her own story. The narrative about disabled people that we are comfortable with follows this format- “overcoming” disability. Disabled people as children. Helen Keller as an adult, though? She was a radical socialist, a fierce disability advocate, and a suffragette. There’s no reason she should not be considered a feminist icon, btw, and the fact that she isn’t is pure ableism- while other white feminists of that time were blatant racists, she was speaking out against Woodrow Wilson because of his vehement racism. She supported woman’s suffrage and birth control. She was an anti-war speaker. She was an initial donor to the NAACP. She spoke out about the causes of blindness- often disease caused by poverty and poor working conditions. She was so brave and outspoken that the FBI had a file on her because of all the trouble she caused.
Yet when we talk about her, it’s either the boring, inspiration porn story of her as a child and her heroic teacher, or as the punchline of ableist, misogynistic jokes. It’s not just offensive, it’s downright disgusting.
the reason the story stops once helen keller learns to talk is no one wanted to listen to what she had to say
how’s that for a fucking punchline
“Harry Potter is symmetrical.”
Not just symmetrical - this is ring composition, favoured by Homer and other good writers. The 4th book is at the centre of the ring.
JK Rowling knows her beans.
Reblogging because I like that phrase a lot.
i love everything about this post
I love how dementors are synonymous to Umbridge. I agree with this completely.
This… is really amazing. I-… wow.
The technical term for this is a chiasm. Props to JK for using a great old storytelling technique.

And so I grew from colt to stallion, as wild and as reckless as thunder over the land. Racing with the eagle, soaring with the wind. Flying? There were times I believed I could.
First Human X-ray 1896. The woman, Marie Curie, who took part in this experiment had so many X-rays taken that she developed a form of blood cancer and died.
Took part? TOOK PART????? SHE FUCKIN INVENTED THAT SHIT WITH HER BAE (that’s pierre curie)! Please don’t erase her enormous contributions and sacrifices to science by reducing her to some fuckin test subject k thanks.
Women always being erased.
Why "The Hunger Games" matter.
The Mockingjay? A poor girl.
The guy who saved her life? A generous black poor boy.
Her first inspiration to be the Mockingjay? A sweet black poor girl.
The person who transformed the heroine into the Mockingjay? A talented black man.
District 13 president? A determined woman.
District 13 chief of security? A kind-hearted black man.
District 13 chief of technology? An extremely intelligent black man. In a wheel chair.
Panem’s next president, which will also bring back democracy? A woman. A black one. A very courageous and fair one.
The best TV director from the Capitol? A talented woman.
Her main assistent? A black man.
One of the camera men? A mute poor guy.
OMG AN WHITE, STRAIGHT (?), CISGENDER (?) GUY! But nah, he was a poor one. Still a minority.
Just like Gale.
And Peeta (also, he doesn’t have a leg, but we’re talking movie *sigh*, so…).
And the character who was forced into prostitution was… a guy, not a girl.
Wait, where are the [irony] good men [/irony], the white, middle/rich class, cisgender, straight ones, not disabled, not opressed ones? Here’s one:
I know there have been white-washing and I know it’s still not perfect at all. But way to go, The Hunger Games. That’s why this series means so much to me.
