I feel like every “tomboy” reaches a point in their life when they realize they never actually hated the color pink, they just hated the social expectations re performing femininity that were associated with pink.

my biology professor has such a chaotic energy about him, last week i went to his office hours and somehow we ended up on the topic of gay marriage:

he said that when he lived in texas they changed the law to define marriage as “between a man and a woman in a house of religious worship with the intention to have children” so he filed his taxes as single and when they called him up like “you filed married last year” he was like “you changed the law, i was married by a judge in a courthouse and i have no intention of having kids” and they told him “you know who that law was for” and i guess he hung up on them and did not, in fact, pay taxes as a married man that year

Chaotic good

NO! This is Lawful Good! He is following the LAW! Chaotic doesn't just mean cheeky!

this is like how Sweden stopped classifying homosexuality as an illness because people started a campaign of calling in gay to work

malicious compliance is one of the best tools in the arsenal of civil rights activism

Koala

The earliest European image of a koala comes from George Perry’s 1811 Arcana, or, The museum of natural history : containing the most recent discovered objects : embellished with coloured plates, and corresponding descriptions : with extracts relating to animals, and remarks of celebrated travellers; combining a general survey of nature  & looks like this:

which isn’t that bad, but what’s genuinely hilarious is the total disdain Perry has for it:

[Amongst the numerous and curious tribes of animals, which the hitherto almost undiscovered regions of New Holland have opened to our view, the creature we are now about to describe stands singularly pre-eminent. Whether we consider the uncouth and remarkable form of its body, which is particularly awkward and unweildy, or its strange physiognomy and manner of living, we are at a loss to imagine for what particular scale of usefulness or happiness such an animal could by the great Author of Nature possibly be destined.]

Note: Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez graduated Cum Laude from Boston University. 

[freelancer-stormscorpion]

Wasn’t she working as a bar tender before she got elected?

[sirfrogsworth]

Folks on the right always seem very concerned that AOC was a bartender. They ignore her prestigious education and the fact that she graduated with distinction. They ignore that she has relevant degrees. And they ignore that she worked for the nonprofit National Hispanic Institute gaining relevant experience in activism.

I’ve also noticed that conservatives constantly complain about “elites.” They propped up “Joe Six Pack” because they felt too many lawmakers were out of touch and they wanted people who understood the common folk. Blue collar workers are the heart and soul of America, right? 

Did you know that nearly half of congress is filled with lawyers? And the rest are mostly businessmen. What do lawyers know about my life? What do lawyers know about struggling to pay bills? What do lawyers know about what it’s like to hold a low wage job? How are they supposed to represent me and my needs?

Do you know why AOC worked as a bartender? Her father died and her mother’s jobs as a house cleaner and bus driver were not enough to fight foreclosure. So Alexandria put her career ambitions on hold and got a job as a bartender to help her mom. Conservatives are all about “family values” right? AOC valued her family so much that she worked a grueling job out of love for her mom. 

And you want to trivialize that?  

AOC knows my struggle more than Mitch McConnell and Donald Trump. I have confidence that AOC will represent me and my family’s needs more so than any lawyer or businessman who is just looking to enrich themselves. 

Maybe we need a few more bartenders and a few less lawyers.

Also people shouldn’t have to have gone to a prestigious university or graduate with distinction to be considered worthwhile human beings with good ideas and a way to implement them. Working people who didn’t go to college (or didn’t go to the *right* college) deserve a voice. People who dropped out of school (at any point) deserve basic human respect.

Trump went to UPenn and Fordham. George W Bush went to Harvard and Yale. Do we consider them more competent than even your regular working person? I sure hope not.

AOC’s good ideas and compassion are from her lived experience, not what university she happened to go to.

Destroy the idea that education = competence.

‘The Poser’ at Freedom Plaza, Washington DC by Bryan Buckley

[whatbigotspost]

Golden 'Statues' Memorializing Donald Trump's Most Divisive Moments Have Popped Up Around Washington, D.C.

Bryan Buckley launched the "Trump Statue Initiative" to immortalize the president's worst moments in gold-painted living statues.

[noirandchocolate]

During the installation, which lasted three or four hours in each location, violinist Celeste Vee was on hand to play songs by artists who have banned Trump from using them at his campaign rallies.

It just gets better and better.

4 years ago, I painted every single black man, woman, and child I possibly could, who had been murdered by the police.

3 years ago, I made a choice for my mental health to take a break and paint things that made me happy. 

That break has gone on for far too long.

Justice for George Floyd. 

Justice for Breonna Taylor. 

Justice for Ahmaud Arbery. 

Justice for every single innocent black life that had been snuffed out far too soon by this country. 

And justice to those protesting for our rights on the streets of America. 

BLACK. LIVES. MATTER.
