Me, imagining a scene in my head: beautiful poetic prose that gracefully and artfully describes the scene in vivid detail, giving the reader concise imagery and beautiful wordplay to ruminate on.
Me, actually writing: The angry man throwed his chair through the window angrily and bigly. "I'm angry and pissed off." He said because he was mad.
no time for mansplaining, this place is gonna blow
actually, it’s going to collapse. the bombs are only there to break the supports and compromise the structural integrity of the building so much that it collapses on itself. you would need a much more powerful bomb to literally blow up the building from the inside out since most of the energy would just be absorbed by th
Your professor will not be happy with you if he says the Stanford Prison Experiment shows human nature and you say it shows the nature of white middle class college-aged boys.
Like he will not be happy at all.
For real though. That experiment. Scary shit.
This reminds me of a discussion that I read once which said Lord of the Flies would have turned out a hell of a lot differently if it was a private school of young girls (who are expected to be responsible and selfless instead), or a public school where the children weren’t all from an inherently entitled, emotionally stunted social class (studies have shown that people in lower socioeconomic classes show more compassion for others). Or that the same premise with children raised in a different culture than the toxic and opressive British Empire and it’s emphasis on social hierarchy and personal wealth and status. And that what we perceive as the unchangable truth deep inside humanity because of things like Lord of the Flies and the Stanford Prison Experiment, is just the base truths about what happens when you remove any accountabilty controlling one social group with an overwhelming sense of entitlement and an inability to feel compassion.
I will always reblog this.
if anyone is curious to read a book that is ‘lord of the flies’ but with girls, check out Beauty Queens by Libba Bray. It’s a bit silly but so, so good. there as canonical explicitly mentioned lesbian, bi, and trans characters.

Google “Did the Holocaust happen” and a neo-Nazi website is the first result
Googling “Did the Holocaust happen” leads to numerous top-ranked search results from white supremacist and Holocaust denial sources
This includes a top-ranked result from online neo-Nazi site Stormfront, the Guardian reported Sunday.
The Stormfront thread appears before the Wikipedia article on Holocaust denial and a list of common FAQs on the U.S. Holocaust Memorial Museum’s website.
There is no dispute among academic historians the Holocaust happened, resulting in millions of innocent deaths, and its intentionality is supported by extensive eyewitness testimony and documentation kept by the Nazi regime itself.
In a statement to Fortune, Google suggested it would not be taking action to direct users away from Holocaust denial content. Read more

What the fuck
If you would like to help get that result pulled down- it is almost certainly caused by illicit SEO practices such as scripting fake hits to the website- then enter the query “did the holocaust happen” and scroll to the very bottom of the page. In the lower left, in small text, you will see a link to “send feedback.”
Click this link and you will be taken to a complaint form. Highlight the Stormfront link with the provided highlighter
And enter a comment to the effect of:
This is hateful, inflammatory, historically inaccurate and completely inappropriate as a top result for this query. It is completely unacceptable.
This will cause the result to be flagged as potentially incorrect, and it should be moved soon.
It won’t be removed, because that is against google’s policy. However, repeated complaints through the official channel will get it flagged as “low quality or incorrect” which should have it forced down a page or two once it has been put through review.
(All images presented are screenshots of google’s complaint/feedback system, showing the described steps).
i can’t fucking believe
Languages are made up can you believe that? it’s just a bunch of phonetic sounds gibberish none of it actually means anything. this post??? i could smash my hand on the keyboard and it could mean the same thing, it only doesn’t because we say so. Nothing is real
Important Reminder
Not every person on the Autism Spectrum can or will be a Temple Brandon, James Taylor, Susan Boyle, or Heather Kuzmich and that’s okay!
You don’t have to change the world. You don’t have to be genius to be considered a valuable member of society.
It’s okay to have simple life. It’s okay to only make small changes. It’s okay to be content with the little things that make you happy.
You don’t need to prove to anyone why you should be treated with respect. You don’t need to prove your worth to society.
You are valuable.
Your life has meaning.
You are worthy of love, respect and happiness.
Never forget that.
this is iconic
the Irish word for Santa Claus literally translates to “daddy december” and I don’t know how to feel about that
great now i have to kinkshame ALL of IRELAND
My mom has done something incredible.
I want to tell you guys a story.
A few years ago, I came out to my mom the morning after my senior prom. She was surprised, then quiet, then asked what my real orientation was. I said, “I have no idea, but I like this one girl.” She was a little confused, but she kissed me and said, “As long as she makes you happy.” For the next few weeks, she asked a lot of questions: when did I realize? What was my new girlfriend’s orientation? What was the word for this or that? I WAS happy, right?
Fast forward about two years. My mom sits me down and tells me that she needs my help with her next book. She’s been writing middle-grade girls’ books (like, 9-14 range) since I was eight, and she says she has an idea that she really, really wants to get right. It follows the plot of Romeo and Juliet, she says, and the main character is a twelve-year-old girl realizing she has a crush on another girl when they put on the play for English class.
Fast forward another year to now. STAR-CROSSED is about to come out, and it is absolutely amazing.
My mom has poured her heart and soul into making sure this is a positive thing for kids to read. I’ve been reading and editing and helping with this book since its first draft and I’ve been, metaphorically and sometimes literally bouncing up and down on my heels, waiting to be able to tell people about it. It’s beyond sweet, and there’s a ton of Shakespeare and humor and goofy preteen drama and twelve-year-old girls flirting and Star Wars jokes and a glossary of Shakespearean insults in the back (yes, really), and it’s just so fun and positive and smart and I want to show it to every kid I know.
This book is for LGBT kids, written by a mom who has asked questions and done her research and tried as hard as she possibly could to make her own queer kid feel safe and loved and valid, and it REALLY shows. Mattie (the cutie on the left) and Gemma (the cutie on the right) are given space to learn about themselves, and ultimately they don’t have to figure themselves out right away or come out to everyone at once or choose a label. They’re kids. It’s okay to still be figuring things out. It’s okay.
Fun facts:
My mom said from the beginning she wanted both girls on the cover to make it clear what the book was about; then when they got the final artwork and Mattie’s hair was short, my mom wrote back and asked the artist to do the hair over to make it as obvious as possible that Mattie is a girl.
When a few people started buzzing about Mattie being the youngest bisexual protagonist they’ve seen, she went back and changed passages to confirm that Mattie likes boys and girls.
When I asked for a happier and less ambiguous ending scene, she set Mattie and Gemma up on a frigging date.
It comes out on March 14, 2017. Please join me in GETTING HYPE FOR STAR-CROSSED <3
