The second girl at least read the book to confirm that it was shit, she even had Capote on deck as backup. Chick 1 is just lazy

kaylapocalypse-deactivated20201

Nope. Girl 2 saw that Girl 1′s absolutely accurate analysis was being shut down just because it wasn’t stated in an intellectual way (in spite of its validity). So Girl 2 reinforced Girl 1′s opinions in solidarity and made sure that it was absolutely clear that Girl 1 was factually correct. WITHOUT taking credit for her observations (”kim is right” instead of “Actually, kim”)

Girls supporting Girls.

Girls not letting other girls be treated poorly.

“I stopped after 30 pages” should always be taken as a severe mark against the book, not the reader.

captainlordauditor

The fact that she picked up a lot from 30 pages is p impressive too.

I learned in a Latin Studies class (with a chill white dude professor) that when the Europeans first saw Aztec cities they were stunned by the grid. The Aztecs had city planning and that there was no rational lay out to European cities at the time. No organization.

When the Spanish first arrived in Tenochtitlan (now downtown mexico city) they thought they were dreaming. They had arrived from incredibly unsanitary medieval Europe to a city five times the size of that century’s london with a working sewage system, artificial “floating gardens” (chinampas), a grid system, and aqueducts providing fresh water. Which wasn’t even for drinking! Water from the aqueducts was used for washing and bathing- they preferred using nearby mountain springs for drinking. Hygiene was a huge part if their culture, most people bathed twice a day while the king bathed at least four times a day. Located on an island in the middle of a lake, they used advanced causeways to allow access to the mainland that could be cut off to let canoes through or to defend the city. The Spanish saw their buildings and towers and thought they were rising out of the water. The city was one of the most advanced societies at the time.

Anyone who thinks that Native Americans were the savages instead of the filthy, disease ridden colonizers who appeared on their land is a damn fool.

They’ve also recently discovered a lost Native American city in Kansas called Etzanoa It rivals the size of Cahokia, which was very large as well.

Makes me happy to see people learn about the culture of my country :D

Also, please remember that the idea of a nomadic or semi-nomadic culture being “less intelligent”, “less civilized” (and please unpack that word) was invented by people who wanted to make a graph where they were on the top.

Societies that functioned without 1) staying exclusively in one location or 2) having to make complicated, difficult-to-construct tools to go about their daily lives… were not somehow less valid than others.

This is why I fucking hate it when Europeans make jokes about how they have “more history” than the Americas. “This church is older than your country hahaha.” Actually, it’s older than the country you put there, massacring millions in the process, but go off, I guess.

this is what we mean when we say proper or professional mental healthcare prioritizes whiteness and that people of color get the shortest end of the stick every time

patchworkheart-deactivated20200

As a Psych major, I can promise you it’s taught that way too. It’s disgusting and vile and needs to be put to an end soon

$150 for therapy though. Fucking hell.

a scientist and an icon

starcrossedcherik

But how can you leave out the line where our girl says “You didnt really think I was in love with you?”

Shit was iconic

gayjimothy

here you go:

candycanemiscreant

love the really good context of the fact she DID love him & still was cold as hell to this dude because of her allegiance to her crew and to humanity

cyberscully

cher is the icon women need and absolutely deserve

The victims have to deal with it for the rest of their lives, so the perpetrators should damn well have to as well.

But women discrimination is a myth right??

metoo-3

Imagine how many people’s lives they ruined. There were probably so many women that went in there knowing they destroyed that test. Yet, when they got their results back…they had to be so confused and disappointed. Mentally and emotionally, that had to be quite the blow. Anyway, this is evil.

Apparently the person who created Bowsette has been freaking out how big she got and the response from Japanese Twitter is some of the most heart warming stuff I’ve ever seen. There’s hundreds of these but these are the best and that last one is amazing.
