Natalia In Miami

25 on August 30th. Working full time and attempting to get my Bachelor's. Netflix gives me life. I love to read teeny drama books and cry about them and get super involved with the story line. I love my cat. I love my girlfriend. I love cheese.

[miseducatedmelanicmuse]

Please reblog, this is so important.

[amuseinherfeels]

Is this foreal?

[miseducatedmelanicmuse]

Yes it’s a real service. I do volunteer work for a rape crisis support service in my city and texting is one of the features we provide as well. But just to boost its credibility, I tried it myself:

You can also text “Steve” to 741741 if you’re a young person of color. The website for more info is stevefund.org

My understanding is that it’s more multicultural and some folks feel more comfy with that in mind!

THIS is what I was looking for a few weeks ago when I was in crisis; reblog to save a life!

[theconcealedweapon]

We should have universal healthcare and universal basic income. We can fund it by taxing rich people.

But taxation is theft, you say? Fine. Make it voluntary. Businesses can opt out of paying taxes. If they don’t want government involved in their business, then government won’t be involved.

But that means no government involvement at all, even when it benefits them. That means no patents, trademarks, or copyrights, since those wouldn’t exist without government. They want a free market? Then they can compete with someone else stealing their customers by selling their products at a lower price.

[smarter-than-the-republicans]

If a company loses money, they’ll foot the bill for once and not us. No government bailouts when they intentionally make dumbass business decisions.

They want government subsidies for not paying their workers enough? Too fucking bad, Wal-Mart, you’re not getting special treatment for being shitty employers anymore.

Oil/gas/coal companies want to keep people from using their own solar panels and wind generators? Go to hell, you don’t get to write the laws anymore.

[nu11-pointer]

Also no taxes, no special labels. So if you want to label your product “made in America”, but don’t pay your taxes, too bad. Want to use government certifications? You better pay those taxes. FDA approval? Better be paying those taxes. Run out of money? Too bad you didn’t pay your taxes, cause you can’t file for bankruptcy.

[yyyyddmmsupremacy-deactivated20]

No no no, it’s not just that

You wanna deliver your goods? Tax money paved those roads. You want electricity? Too bad, govt-run power grid.

[smarter-than-the-republicans]

Holy shit, this is getting better each time.

[backwardsflow]

This is why the whole ‘taxation is theft’ idea doesn’t work. At their core, businesses exist to make money. Money that is created and given value by the government. If your business doesn’t want to pay taxes to ensure the continued operation of the government, then what right does it have to use its currency? Your money has no value outside of the value assigned to it by the government, so you can’t lay claim to any value you supposedly have before paying your dues to the organization that gives your paper slips meaning.

the wild thing about hayley kiyoko songs is that they never sound new, you listen to a song by her for the first time and you’re just like ‘o ya, i know all the words, and also this has been my favorite song for ten years’

[hooligankid-deactivated20200607]

It’s because she’s Sappho reincarnated and she’s always enchanted you with her music in your past lives

[dorothycastlemore]

that’s absolutely true and correct, thank you for providing the needed context for me to understand this phenomenon 

[ainokiseki]

A: My love…We live in a world that distrusts feelings. Over and over, we are reminded that feelings are not as important as reason. That feelings are childish, irresponsible, dangerous. We are taught to ignore them, control, or deny them. We barely understand what they are, where they come from, or how they seem to understand us better than we understand ourselves. But I know that feelings matter. Sometimes they’re little…like when I smell cinnamon toast and I miss my grandma. And sometimes, they are huge…like when I found out my girlfriend shares her thoughts with seven other people around the world.

N: Amanita…I wrote this thing like a hundred times and I tore them all up because I have to admit, I don’t like vows. I’m afraid of things pretending to be permanent because nothing is permanent. My life, especially these past two years, is a testament to the fact that things change, people change. But with you…that doesn’t scare me. It actually makes me happy. It makes me excited because I can think of no better life than watching Amanita Caplan change…watching her evolve and grow.

There’s a better thing to her story. She CONTINUED her thesis in her underwear and afterward her professor said “what would your mother think wearing those kinds of clothes”

And she responded “my mother’s a feminist also a gender and sexuality studies professor. She’s fine with my shorts”

[kurtwagnermorelikekurtwagnerd]

i think the best part is that a majority of the class also stripped with her in solidarity

[lalaofrp]

Just to give a little more perspective after reading the story:

The sequence of events is a little jumbled in the telling above. The actual chastising from the teacher came days before the woman’s thesis, during a practice run of her presentation. This was not a spur-of-the-moment thing where she just whipped off her clothes for the sake of being angry. Chai took the time to think things through before deciding this was the way she wanted to protest. She used critical thinking and level-headedness to decide instead of becoming volatile and aggressive, she would choose non-violent protest. 

I just don’t like the way the story’s being told by others because it makes her come across as “overly-emotional” and “erratic” (as women often do in the media, because it’s easier to attribute extreme action to “hysteria”), whereas in actual news reports, she had time to think about her decision and choose the best way to handle what happened to her.

This is a summary of college only using two pictures; expensive as hell.

That’s my Sociology “book”. In fact what it is is a piece of paper with codes written on it to allow me to access an electronic version of a book. I was told by my professor that I could not buy any other paperback version, or use another code, so I was left with no option other than buying a piece of paper for over $200. Best part about all this is my professor wrote the books; there’s something hilariously sadistic about that. So I pretty much doled out $200 for a current edition of an online textbook that is no different than an older, paperback edition of the same book for $5; yeah, I checked. My mistake for listening to my professor.

This is why we download.
