august slipped away into a moment in time... 🍷🥀 @taylorswift

delicatelylovingyou

So I wrote a poem on how my home life is and has been for a few years. Thought maybe some people would like to read it...

Hollow good mornings,

Empty hellos.

Slow conversations,

Vacant expressions.

Quiet dinners,

Filled with no speech,

Tidying up, to fill the peace.

Hollow goodnights,

Empty goodbyes.

Cold kisses,

Lonely rooms,

Silent wishes.

It's not as poetic as @taylorswift is, but it expresses my broken soul.

people who can’t pay fines are put in jail. once in the system they can/will be kept for “violating” the terms of their sentence and shipped off to prison. once there, they can be used for prison labor to “work off the debt”.

this is slavery.

Basically a law against being homeless and that’s super disgusting.

The amount of notes this doesn’t have bothers me…

tangdynastie

Tumblr has 30-50 million active users. Why does this not even have 1 million notes?

I might not post a lot about BLM due to my own mental health, but I am on their side. I’m doing what I can to help support this outside of Tumblr, I hope you are too!

Hey remember when US and Russia was all like “We’re the best!!! We’ve won the space race!!!!” But India sent a kick-ass space probe to Mars and the whole mission was fuel efficient, costed less and a roaring success in the first try and then they were like “…..wait no that can’t be true” and still have the audacity to call us “underdeveloped” or only view us as a ‘third world country’? :)

For anyone who needs more info, the probe was called Mangalyaan (which literally means space probe vehicle) or Mars Orbiter Mission (MOM) and you can also get more information here and here

Remember when NYT mocked India for this very thing and an TOI (a major indian newspaper) responded with this? :)

They were being racist asf and we were till respectful literally fuck you if you think ‘third world counties’ can’t be better than you

white people can and should reblog this

and shout out to the women engineers integral to the launch

“Indian staff from the Indian Space Research Organisation celebrate after the Mars Orbiter Spacecraft entered Mars’s orbit.

On November 5, 2013, a rocket launched toward Mars. It was India’s first interplanetary mission, Mangalyaan, and a terrific gamble. Only 40 percent of missions sent to Mars by major space organizations—NASA, Russia’s, Japan’s, or China’s—had ever been a success. No space organization had succeeded on its first attempt. What’s more, India’s space organization, ISRO, had very little funding: while NASA’s Mars probe, Maven, cost $651 million, the budget for this mission was $74 million.

This was not the only success of the mission. An image of the scientists celebrating in the mission control room went viral. Girls in India and beyond gained new heroes: the kind that wear sarees and tie flowers in their hair, and send rockets into space.”

there’s a movie adaptation of this! it’s obviously more dramatized/they use different names but i really really loved the movie! it’s called mission mangal and it was the first time i had heard of this and i was so surprised that literally? no one talked about it??? what they accomplished is incredible.

ALSO, Mangalyaan launched in 2013 and was meant to be a 6 month mission. It’s been in orbit around Mars now for more than 5 years and has enough propellant to keep going for even longer.

“The kind that wear sarees and tie flowers in their hair, and send rockets into space.”

FUCK YES. THIS IS THE TYPE OF REPRESENTATION I’VE BEEN HERE FOR!!

I love how the dudes at back are pure happy!!

Moreover the whole budget of this mission was $74 million, way less than the budget of the movie Gravity- $100 million or the movie The Martian -$108 million.
