Even I'm Not Sure

I don't always 100% believe or agree with what I reblog here, if something has an interesting perspective or personal account or I agree with some but not all of it I'll usually reblog it anyway.  If you have any questions about what I believe, ask me outright because it isn't 100% harmonious with the content of this blog.  Ideology is always a work in progress, anyway.

biologists in the pokemon universe are fuckin idiots. imagine excluding entire countries’ worth of animals and saying “yeah these are all the species in the world”. and these arent even like. undiscovered continents. each of these countries has enough history to show that it’s been populated for countless generations. fuckin professor oak or whatever professor is just straight up neglecting to include entire continents in his research papers

[link-of-asgard]

The first 4 Generations aren’t even different countries, just different regions in the SAME country. And according to the remakes have known about each other for ages. Which makes it worse.

i think……..one of the many problems in how sex is perceived in society is that we seem to think its this “skill” like people are very anxious about getting experience or practice or whatever wrt sex but that’s not really how it works, it’s a fundamentally an expression, a conversation; two-sided, subjective, situational, and figuring out what works for everyone involved, as opposed to being just another objective talent to master for all situations as if its one-size-fits-all without consideration to your specific partner

I’m sorry, I just can’t forget that Elizabeth Warren claimed to be Native American. I just can’t trust someone who reached that level of peak whiteness.

[macleod]

Her mother told her when she was younger that she was, she wrote an essay on her heritage for college based primarily on stories from her mother.

Last October she did release a report on a DNA analysis that was said to show a pure Native American ancestor appeared in her ancestry “in the range of six to 10 generations ago.” 

All in all, they were able to conclude that she does have native american ancestry, not as much as initially believed, but nonetheless an adequate amount. We need to take another step forward and keep in mind that genetic testing/analysis for ancestry has only been possible in the last 10 years (three years for consumer markets). She wrote her paper in college, and believed her mother all of her life That is why she said that.  Ancestry is a hard thing, especially prior to modern technologies as they were all based on stories being passed down to descendants ad nauseam, not on anything substantial like we have today. 

[ms-cellanies]

Just have to add:

Elizabeth Warren DID NOT claim to be Native American.  She reported that she had some Native American ancestry.  Those are 2 very different things.  She didn’t make a big deal out of it.  Trump, otoh, did by calling her POCAHONTAS.  Which one do you really think was behaving poorly?

[generalpirategentlemen]

It’s not like apologize was all she did:

She appeared at the National Indian Women Honor luncheon a few months ago to support a Native Leader from Massachusetts, who was winning an award, and she got a standing ovation.

She has also been working on legislation with Rep. Deb Haaland (New Mexico), the first Native American woman to serve in Congress that seeks to address funding shortfalls in tribal lands.

Even her critics admit she’s addressed the issue, to an extent, well:

Julian Brave Noisecat, a Native American journalist and activist who has criticized Warren previously, has said: “Based on my conversations with tribal leaders and advocates, the consensus position is that she’s one of the strongest allies of Indian country in Congress. She has good relationships with tribes across the board. And I think that’s relevant.”

Mr. Noisecat also said the ancestry matter had become double-edged: “More than any other Democratic presidential candidate, Ms. Warren has caused the most upset among Native American communities, but has also probably done the most outreach and is more vocal on issues that effect tribal citizens than other presidential candidates.”

María Urbina, the national political director of the progressive group Indivisible, said she and other liberal leaders were encouraged by Ms. Warren’s decision to apologize. Going forward, Ms. Urbina said she expected liberal activists to take their cues from Native leaders on whether Ms. Warren had adequately addressed their concerns.

“Native leaders and native people should be the ones to affirm — or not affirm — whether her record shows if she’s been an ally,” Ms. Urbina said. “That’s absolutely important.”

You guys really wanna sit here in your own ignorance, wondering why racists, anti-feminists, and actual literal transphobes are drawn to the tumblr radfem community and then you refuse to analyze your own behavior. It’s literally just gonna keep happening and you guys are gonna keep acting surprised.

When men kill random women who are walking alone at night it is a hate crime. It is meant to make all women afraid. And a woman’s life was taken because she was a woman. That’s literally why it’s personal. Violence against women is rarely random, these are calculated hate crimes

[puttingherinhistory]

Nobody wants to admit how many instances of women being murdered, raped, and abused should be counted as hate crimes because these women were targeted for murder, rape, and/or abuse because of being a woman, because if we admitted how many cases of femicide / rape / abuse really are hate crimes the numbers would be fucking staggering, and nobody wants to admit how disgustingly normal and common and out of control hate crimes against women are. Everyone wants to pretend it’s all just personal isolated conflicts, but these things are happening to women because they’re women, because the men who commit these crimes despise women, they see women as subhuman, and want to hurt women, and that’s why these are hate crimes.

Every person in a position of political power should have their daily needs matched to the lowest class of their country.

[teaboot]

You make $6 an hour now, Mr. Congressman, and you’re not allowed to sit down or take breaks during your 7.5 hour daily shift. If you don’t like that, then you’re welcome to make some changes

[betthearm]

This.

i’ve never understood being able to enact laws that will never impact you

[phinarei]

It legitimately works. When politicians chose to live on the food stamp budget for their state they worked to increase the allotment after only a week of living that way.

And honestly? It should include having to spend time living on disability, navigating their district in a wheelchair, and taking public transit.

These people should have to live with their choices the same way they force us to live with them.

Sometimes I see a girl’s shoulders/collarbone area and I’m suddenly possessed by the spirit of a 19th century lesbian first seeing another girl removing her dress to reveal pantaloons and corset in the dorms at the all-girls boarding school her parents sent her to so she may be trained in proper etiquette
