i feel like now is a good time to remind everyone that chris pratt is a creepy republican fundementalist christian that goes to a notoriously homophobic megachurch
worth noting: he clearly leans alt right. he follows Ben Shapiro, PragerU, Turning Point, Jordan Peterson, the Babylon Bee, and Dan Crenshaw on instagram, just for starters.
there is NOTHING like the rage of searching for a post you KNOW is on your blog with a highly specific phrase and then not only can this website not find it but tumblr says something fucking stupid like ‘please don’t be mad. please’
Nobody ever talk to me about the catholics going off with stained glass again because not one window of jesus has ANYTHING on the Nasir al-Mulk Mosque
Click through this link i’m losing my mind its gorgeous
i absolutely love seeing people’s reactions to the pink mosque 😂
the style is called “orsi” and is unique to iran
and stained glass traces its roots to south west and west asia, developed in ancient times and well before the europeans and the roman empire saw it and said “hey i like that, i’ll be leaving with it”
and while we’re talking about mosques in iran, may i present persian mirror work?
yes, these are real places! it’s a different mosque in the same city as the first picture (the shah cheragh mosque in shiraz)
every time someone tries to talk to me about western churches and architecture and their superiority to that of “third world countries” i have to laugh a little at the ignorance, especially when our mosques look like this
If it weren’t for the crocheted dog I’d have probably just thought she had a twin lol
I’m a little disturbed but also highly impressed
This woman has a power that should be feared
Didn’t realize what the title meant til i looked at the dog
It’s two different people!! There are two reflections in the glass behind them!!
You commented multiple variations of this, and I’m well and truly stunned that you seem to think the crochet version should have no reflection like some kind of knitted vampire. I’m at a total loss trying to make sense of your repeated insistence that having a reflection proves it’s actually another human. Do you know something we don’t? Should we be afraid?
@mautlin Those are two different ladies and two different dogs. The dogs fur marks are different and the ladies face types are different as well. It’s not the same lady. And if it really is the person who did the photoshop is truly amazing, look at how the arms touch in the middle. And look at the both of the dogs’ foreheads, the markings are different!
…what do you think this is supposed to be a photo of? The dogs have different fur because one dog is made out of yarn. The women have different faces because, again, one woman is made out of yarn. There is no photoshop involved, just a lot of yarn.

Being on Tumblr is less a matter of “why?” and more a matter of “what exactly is the alternative?”. Like, Twitter is a glorified advertising platform, Reddit manages to capture all the vices of Web 1.0 forum culture and absolutely none of its virtues, Facebook is fundamentally hostile to human life, and Pinterest is a digital scrapbooking service wearing a social media app as a hat. What’s left?
u know that thing where an animals grow in a far off place and some idiot introduces him to a new habitat and it turns out its characteristics that help them in their own sometimes are too helpful in the new one and they become like an invasive species yeah thats the word i was missing anyway back to my point i think i saw a human version of that just now i was driving in tonights snow storm and i saw a man wearing a big ass cowboy hat to keep the snow off him and a bandit red bandana to keep it off his face and a big ass pancho to keep him warm and nice ass cowboy boots to keep his calves dry and he was prancing along while everyone on the road looked miserable and frozen solid and idk i guess the point im trying to make here is i feel like cowboys would have taken over russia if given the chance or something

One of my biggest pet-peeves is when nonblack ppl (especially nonblack poc) completely ignore that there are black ppl of pretty much every ethnicity/culture. Like there are black latinxs, black Asians, black Jews, etc…So if you are complaining about the hyper visibility of black ppl by saying “but what about my ppl”, remember when you say “my ppl” some of those ppl are black too and most likely they are treated like shit within their culture as well.
Every single time I was tasked to do a family tree project in the predominantly white schools I went to as a child was a racial microagression period

Robert Eads was a transgender man who transitioned later in life and as such it was deemed inadvisable for him to seek sex reassignment surgery. He was diagnosed with ovarian cancer in 1996 but was refused treatment by more than a dozen doctors, some for personal reasons and others on the grounds that taking him on as a patient might harm their practice. When he finally found a doctor to treat him in 1997, the cancer had already metastasized to other parts of his body, rendering any further treatments futile. He passed away in 1999. His life and death was the subject of the award-winning documentary Southern Comfort (2001).
As i’m sure many of you have heard, the Trump administration just passed a ruling that would remove LGBT+ anti-discrimination protections in health care and health insurance. I immediately thought of this man’s story when I heard about the ruling. Stories like this are the reason why those protections are necessary.
It’s easy to feel hopeless with all the bad news our community has been bombarded with recently. But we have to keep fighting, and one way we can fight is through legal means.
Here are some organizations that have announced plans to take action in court. If you can donate to any of them, please do!
Lambda Legal: one of the first to announce they would take legal action against the ruling, Lambda Legal is the oldest and largest national legal organization advocating for LGBTQ+ people and people with HIV.
We make the case for equality in the nation s courts and in the court of public opinion. The work we do has impact on the way all of us li
Transgender Law Center: the largest American transgender-led civil rights organization in the United States. The stated mission of TLC is to connect transgender people and their families to technically sound and culturally competent legal services, increase acceptance and enforcement of laws and policies that support transgender communities, and work to change laws and systems that fail to incorporate the needs and experiences of transgender people.
Donate - Transgender Law Center
Transgender Legal Defense and Education Fund: Transgender Legal Defense & Education Fund is committed to ending discrimination based upon gender identity and expression and to achieving equality for transgender people through public education, test-case litigation, direct legal services, and public policy efforts.
Now in our sixteenth year of fighting for trans rights and in the midst of a political environment that has increased the need for transgend
UPDATE: removed one group from the list as I heard they’ve been involved in some shady stuff. Plus, I want to focus more attention on the LGBT+ specific groups
that reminds me of a couple years ago when my dumbass stupid bee post was going around and someone was trying to argue w me abt how unethical beekeeping for honey was so i was like “ahaha what? i don’t beekeep for the honey i throw that nasty goop out! i eat the bees. crunchy” and i thought they were going to try and kill me in real life
Going more off Kendra's post and also what's been said before, it really also is such a disservice to Hozier's work to constantly shove it into this weird niche of like "woodland creature" bullshit y'all keep insisting it is. Hozier is a really good example of what I call an artist's artist.
He's somebody who does an outstanding job of channeling his influences into something all his own whilst also being so considerate and respectful of those who came before him. He understands the importance of giving other artists their credit and what their positions in society means on a larger scale because of their work. That's probably why he is so respected by elders in the industry like Mavis Staples.
Its also the reason alot of poc (specially black fans) admire and enjoy his work, because he's a good example of what it means to be influenced by the contributions of poc whilst publicly acknowledging AND giving credit as a white person in a manner which is both humble and genuine. This is why a lot of his fans of color find it SO irritating that y'all dismiss the root of where his music is really coming from just to be quirky and label it "fae" shit, cause it's not. Especially since he's CONSTANTLY talking about those influences.
Blues and folk music in both America and Ireland share a common bond in that they're rooted in giving a voice to the struggles, experiences, resilience, and enduring spirit of two communities who've experienced what it means to be disenfranchised by the powers that be, and you can very much hear that in Hozier's work especially as of late. His music is a really wonderful reflection of his experiences through the lense of his own culture, and the kinship he's found in the beauty of Blues.
