My Happy Place

Just because you can't beat them doesn't mean you should join them 😘

[glittermobboss]

ok here we go pet peeve no. 45678: when girls are made fun of for behaviour that has literally been drilled into them by society. let’s go through some of these.

haha girls are all like “don’t look at me without makeup on!!!!”: maybe because we are taught from a very young age that we’re ugly without makeup. if we don’t wear it we’re asked why we look so tired, why we didn’t make an effort today, why we seem slobbish. as we grow older if we don’t wear makeup we’re seen as unprofessional and it can actually affect our careers but no yeah it definitely doesn’t make sense that we’re insecure about our naked faces whatever

man my gf always takes food from my plate so annoying lol #relatablecontent: probably because she’s fucking starving but it was instilled in her that cute girls eat like precious baby bunnies so she got a salad but all she fuCKING WANTS ARE FRIES. JUST GIVE HER THE FUCKING FRIES.

girls always go to the bathroom together haha lame and weird: mainly so we don’t get attacked asshole. also having a pee buddy is fun i pity you and your pee-buddy-less experience. when do your friends tell you how nice your hair is. oh that’s right they don’t because guys are the fucking worst

look at these drunk girls tottering around on high heels they look ridiculous: i will defend to the death women’s right to get just as completely shitfaced as men and don’t even ACT like it’s not practically fucking mandated that if a woman isn’t wearing high heels she isn’t dressed up. high heels LITERALLY GIVE ME BACK PROBLEMS but i have to wear them for work because if I don’t i’m not “””””professionally dressed”””””” give me a fucking break

WOMAN AND SHOPPING. OHOHOHO BOY.: yeah ok so we have to spend money you don’t on makeup products, skin products, hair removal products, pads and tampons, and on top of that we’re expected to change our clothes more often than you which means we need more of them, and also women’s clothing sizes are voodoo so every fitting session is a battle with your self confidence. AND we pay the gender tax. i fucking hate shopping. i do it because i have to, you buttnerd. and even if some women enjoy shopping im sure some men also enjoy shopping??? why must you gender??? activities??? why is this the world we live in????

girls on their periods are fucking psycho hahaha!!!: no we’re just in more or less constant pain so we have less patience to put up with your your bullshit. not to mention that a woman’s testosterone levels actually INCREASE on her period so GUESS WHO WE’RE MORE FUCKING LIKE, CHAD. GIVE A FUCKING GUESS.

lol girls spend forever in the bathroom lololol: all right first of all if we’re talking about say, a sporting event, and you’re complaining about all the women who are queueing to go to the bathroom, we have a COUPLE MORE STEPS INVOLVED THAN PEOPLE WHO CAN JUST WHIP IT OUT AND THEN TUCK IT AWAY. not to mention the fact that yeah we have to take a second to double check the paint smeared on our faces or the socially acceptable hairstyle we’re wearing. we’re not allowed have fucking buzzcuts chad. apparently having less than the requisite amount of dead protein on the top of our head makes us a target for verbal abuse on the street chad. how about ranting about the people who built the stadium or whatever who KNOW it takes women longer to go to the bathroom but normally lot the same amount of stalls to men and women?? AND IF WE’RE TALKING ABOUT PERSONAL MAINTENANCE yeah ok buddy and how long does it take you to shave your legs? you think I like spending SEVENTY TWO DAYS OUT OF MY LIFE accidentally cutting myself and pulling muscles in my thighs??? well. i dont. so that’s why i don’t do it mainly. but we probably spend the rest of the time slathering ourselves with anti-aging creams because everyone is falling over themselves to tells us that our sell-by date is 35 while George Clooney and RDJ will probably continue to play wry sexy playboys until their fucking hips fall off. go fuck yourself chad.

GOD. I CAN’T EVEN GO ON. ADD YOUR OWN IF YOU THINK OF MORE.

i was not expecting this to get popular at all but i will tell you one joyous thing: over 2,000 notes so far and not one single person has disagreed. WE ALL KNOW ITS BULLSHIT AND THAT IS SOMETHING AT LEAST.

Looks like I'm going to have two very happy nephews this year

ashockinglackofsatin replied to your post “Yesterday I marathon watched the first season of Miss Fisher’s Murder…”

I love that series! Just started watching season 3, got hubby hooked on it too!

I’m watching season 3 as it comes up on PBS, but I love the whole show and I decided it was a good idea to marathon watch. 

Awesome that your husband likes it :)

[heavyarethecrowns]

Devastated when it got cancelled. Annoyed S3 was only like 8 episodes. Won’t ruin the ending for you.

[jillianira]

It got cancelled? I haven't read anything about it getting cancelled. That is horrible news

Here’s to every student who isn’t on Tumblr because they are working two jobs and taking classes and driving their little sister to soccer practice and they don’t have time for social media.

Here’s to every student who is doing good to pay tuition, let alone buy cute notebooks and fine tip markers.

Here’s to every student who passed on a major they were interested in to take the major that would pay more money because they have responsibilites to meet and don’t have the luxury of studying what they would like.

Here’s to every student who has to choose a major based on how long it will take to complete because they need to be working full time, instead of choosing a major based on how much they could contribute to society in the future if they had the option of their first choice.

Here’s to every student using their school’s food pantry because even with loans there isn’t enough fiancial aid to cover all their expenses, stay in school, and still eat.

Here’s to every student who is doing this on their own, without parental help. 

Here’s to every student who is under so much pressure in their personal life that focusing long enough to complete homework is a victory, never mind spending hours making color-coded study guides for exams.

Here’s to every student with a learning disability who has to work twice as hard to get half the grade.

Here’s to every student with social anxiety who shows up for speech class anyway.

Here’s to every student who is proud of their work despite the constant criticism they get for not majoring in a STEM field.

Here’s to every student doing this one step at a time because that’s all they can see right now. 

Here’s to every student who has every reason not to be in school, not to get good grades, not to keep coping with all the stress, but choose to do it anyway, knowing that the overcoming of obastacles produces resilience, which is far more valuable than a college degree.

I’m so proud of you.

The fandom who are still crying over it

[fozmeadows]

half the fun of cat ownership is the random scavenger hunts, like, where is my small friend sleeping today? are you in the laundry basket? are you under the bed? have you curled up behind the shelf or on top of a cupboard or crept into a shopping bag? have you discovered a secret portal to another dimension and gone to have adventures with a tiny mechanical dragon? where are you, cat??

“The Nazis didn’t just kill the Jews; they made use of every inch of them. Women’s hair was shaved off and weaved into blankets for Nazi soldiers. Fat from Jews’ bodies was used to make soap. Gold teeth were pulled out to make gold bars for the Reichsbank. 384,000 pairs of men’s shoes were sent to Germany from Auschwitz. 646,000 men’s suits. 184,000 pairs of eyeglasses. The most frightening thing is not the gas chambers or the crematoria. It’s the rooms piled to the ceiling with children’s shoes. That gives you have an idea what the Holocaust was. Shoes. Once worn by real people.” - via jewishhistory.org

[fuckyeajews-deactivated20150121]

In the Holocaust Museum in DC, they have a room just for the shoes and hair of the victims. It’s really startling to see it so up close since it makes you realize the sheer scale of this. The pile of hair in the museum weighs several tons, and bear in mind that this several ton pile of hair is only but a small fraction of all of the horrible things found in the camps.

[kuklarusskaya-deactivated202003]

Somewhere in those shoes were the shoes of my great aunts and their children. 

Same with eyeglasses.

It’s something I can never, ever forget.

[durnesque-esque]

The above are photos I took at Auschwitz. The shoes and suitcases were each encased in a hallway - kept behind glass on both sides. And again comprise only a fraction of what the Nazis took.

Now the significance of these collections can not be understated or undermined, the horrors of the Holocaust, the Shoah, are embodied in these piles of stolen clothing and cases.

We look at them and recoil, promising that we’ll never forget and yet the systematic slaughter of human beings continues around the world.

In different places, for different reasons. Who didn’t learn the lesson? Who still needs to be reached? Who needs to be protected?

Do not forget. Remember and react. Radical evil is not a memory of the past, it is a present and continuous force.

Reblogging in honor International Holocaust Remembrance Day: 70 year anniversary of the liberation of the Auschwitz-Birkenau concentration camps. 

[shittyurlhere-deactivated201507]

I have visited the Holocaust Museum in DC and let me tell you. It is a harrowing experince that cuts you to the quick and leaves you breathless. The absolute enormity of everything you see and feel and smell. The shoes still smell like leather and feet, the train cart in the middle of the museum once used to move people into camps still smells like wood and it’s so small standing inside of it and imagining yourself hurdling towards a camp is enough to give you chills.

They also play videos of the liberation of the camps, showing what the soldiers saw when they finally arrived. The museum has hospital beds where they used to do experiments on the mentally ill, most especially those with Autism. 

The impact is astounding, and it’s seared in my mind as if it happened yesterday, tho it was almost a decade ago now. 

It’s a emotional experience, but if you have the chace to go, go. It’s something we must never ever forget happened. Jewish people, Romani, trans people, the mentally ill, LGBTQA+, Catholics, those of improper coloring, so many people were killed. And we must prevent something like this from happening again. We must learn tolerance and acceptance, to love one another and to protect each other. 

[choijongho]

i sometimes don’t understand humans. Scratch that, I barely do. How could we do this to one another?

[thelocalcomedian]

I went to the DC Holocaust Museum and started out halfway joking about it, like a normal dick 8th grader, by the time we were done my entire class and I were sobbing. The smell still sticks with me to this day- it’s haunting. The car where they transported people to the death camps still has nail marks on the side of people scratching to get out… 

It was so heart breaking but such an amazing expierence. Such a great reminder that humans can be the absolute worst force on each other- but in harmony, we can keep this shit in museums and out of normal life.

[jillianira]

Just the fact that this happened and is still happening in some places always amazes me. My grandfather was a World War II veteran, seeing these things reminds me of what he fought and risked his life for, it makes me wonder why people now are ready to go to war with each other over petty things.
