@perfectlycontrolledchaos
i donāt bother withĀ āeducatingā white people anymore because these people have the time to manage their 37 fandom blogs, do research on mundane shit about 15th century soap and bathing habits, churn out chapters of perfectly curated and edited fanfiction but the 5 min of research required to not be a fucking racist, they just canāt be assed to do for some reason. anyway. itās telling. maybe when i was 22 iād fall for that shit, but not anymore lmao
Rape is the only crime on the books for which arguing that the temptation to commit it was too clear and obvious to resist is treated as a defence. For every other crime, we call that a confession.
Iāve gotten more angry asks about this post than I have actual reblogs.
āThere was a blind spot in the security camera and only one cashier on duty, they were asking to be robbed, what did they expect?ā
PSA
theres a new product by verzion called āhumā that allows your parents to track your car and places you go, if your parents are controlling like mine please check under your steering wheel to make sure that they havent installed this
here is what it looks like installed:
you can read more about it here, and here-Ā this excerpt sums up what information Hum will send:Ā
āa carās owner will be able to get notified on their phone when the vehicle leaves a pre-determined area or drives faster than a set speedā¦ [Hum] will enable location tracking and a driving log, which measures travel times, engine idle times, and average speeds.āĀ
People in abusive relationships, please check your cars.
DO NOT TRY TO UNPLUG IT BY YOURSELF!
To add to this nightmare, Iāve just heard of a thing called ForceField where people get to monitor and block internet sites that youāre going on if they donāt approve.
It tells the user what sites/apps youāre going on, for how long youāre on them, and WHERE YOU ARE ON AN UPDATING MAP.
So you know if youāre in an abusive household and use sites like tumblr to escape and talk to friends, you could be cut off from that.
They say āitās not spywareā but it sure sounds controlling and creepy to me.
signalboost
God. Fuck. Thatās scary.
Life 360 is another tracker. My parents have used it on me, not allowing me to delete it from my phone, and sometimes even demanding selfies to prove I was where the map said. (As if Iād go anywhere without my phone)
SpectorPro is another one. Afaik it canāt track location, but it takes screenshots roughly every 20sec to allow the installer to watch a video of your computer activity. It also tracks all keystrokes, so passwords arenāt safe, and records any website you visit + the duration. Itās incredibly creepy and a huge violation of privacy, and was one of the cornerstones of my abuse as a kid.
even if youāre not in an abusive relationship/family, please spread this because you might have just saved someoneās life
āHeās not racist he just thinks itās funny to say racist things to see peopleās reactions!ā Yeah thatās a racist
White ppl was really mad about this post
Wait, are you telling me that saying racist things is racist?

fucked up how cooking and baking from scratch is viewed as a luxuryā¦..like baking a loaf of bread or whatever is seen as something that only people with money/time can do. Iām not sure why capitalism decided to sell us the idea that we canāt make our own damn food bc itās a special expensive thing thatās exclusive to wealthy retirees but itās stupid as hell and it makes me angry
bread takes like max 4 ingredients counting water and sure it takes a couple hours but 80% of that is just waiting around while it does the thing and you can do other things while itās rising/baking plus im not gonna say baking cured my depression bc it didnāt but man is it hard to feel down when youāre eating slices of fresh bread you just made yourself. feels like everythingās gonna be a little more ok than you thought. itās good.
bread is amazing and itās also been sold to us as something really hard to make? Every time I tell someone I made a loaf of bread I get reactions like āyou made it yourself???ā and ādo you have a bread machine then?ā I havenāt touched a bread machine in probably 10 years. You CAN make your own bread, folks, and itās actually pretty cheap to do so. I believe the most expensive thing I needed for it was the jar of yeast. It was about $6 at the grocery store and lasted me MONTHS (just keep it in the fridge.) The packets are even cheaper. destroy capitalism. bake your own bread.
You can also make your own yeast by making a sourdough starter, so that cuts cost even more.
But you have to feed the starter daily/weekly and that means it grows quickly, but there are tons of recipes online for what to do with your excess starter. Cookies, pretzels, crackers, pancakes, waffles, you name it!!
Hereās a link to The Home Baking Associationās site. It has recipes and tips.
Make it even easier - āNo-Knead Breadā. All YOU do is mix the ingredients together and wait until itās time to heat the oven. The yeast does all the rest.
Hereās @dduaneāās first take on it and the finished product. Weāve made even more photogenic batches since.
Kneading is easy as well; either let your machine do it, or if you donāt want to or donāt have one, get hands-on. Itās like mixing two colours of Plasticine to make a third. Flatten, stretch, fold, half-turn, repeat - it takes about 10 minutes - until the gloopy conglomeration of flour, yeast, salt and water that clings to your hands at the beginning, becomes a compact ball that doesnāt stick to things and feels silky-smooth.
Hereās what before and after look like.
My Mum used to say that if you were feeling out of sorts with someone, it was good to make bread because you could transfer your annoyance into kneading the dough REALLY WELL, and both you and the bread would be better for it.
Then you put it into a bowl, cover it with cling-film and let it rise until it doubles in size, turn it out and āknock it backā (more kneading, until itās getting back to the size it started, this means there wonāt be huge āis something living in here?ā holes in the bread), put it into your loaf-tin or whatever - weāve used a regular oblong tin, a rectangular Pullman tin with a lid, a small glass casserole, an earthenware chicken roasterā¦
You can even use a clean terracotta flowerpot.
Let the dough rise again until itās high enough to look like an unbaked but otherwise real loaf, then pop it in the preheated oven. On average we give ours 180Ā°C / 355Ā°F for 45-50 minutes. YM (and oven) MV.
Hereās some of our breadā¦
Hereās our default bread recipe - it takes about 3-4 hours from flour jar to cutting board depending on climate (warmer is faster) most of which is rise time and baking; hands-on mixing, kneading and knocking-back is about 20 minutes, tops, and less if using a mixer.
Here ( or indeed any of the other pics) is the finished product. This one was given an egg-wash to make it look glossy and keep the poppy-seeds in place; mostly we donāt bother with that or the slash down the middle, but all the extras were intentional as a āready for my close-upā glamour shot.
I think any shop would be happy to have something this good-looking on their shelf. Weāre happy to have it on our table.
Even if your first attempts donāt work out quite as well as you hope, you can always make something like thisā¦
āYou will pay for this, Karen.ā

sam, at 3am: wake upā¦ i have something to tell youā¦ i promise itās important, trust me
bucky: what

this is a universe where people have superpowers and there are talking trees but this person thinks having a smart teenage girl is unrealistic ok
White people donāt know how to handle the fact that the not the center or best of everything, even in fiction.
I keep thinking about that straight girls in gay bars post and so hereās a list of things that straight people have done to me or around me in gay bars
I ask a pretty girl if she wants to dance. She looks at me with disgust and says,Ā āIām not gayā in the snottiest valley girl voice Iāve ever heard.Ā
A short greasy dude will not leave me the fuck alone at the bar. I tell him multiple timesĀ āI am a lesbian.ā He says,Ā āme tooā and in the same breath tells me Iāll like it if I try it. When the guy steps away to talk to his friend, three gay men surround me and buy me a drink and swear to keep him away from me for the rest of the night.
2am, drunk, cheering on my favorite local drag queen on stage. A contestant from Dr*g R*ce is in the audience, hanging out, supporting her friends. The straight girls next to me spot her and start shrieking at the top of their lungs and trying to get to her. Security escorts the contestant elsewhere so no one could get near her. Not a single straight person in the audience tips any of the performing queens.Ā
Iām by myself on the dance floor, feeling myself to Bey, as you do. A man comes up to me and starts dancing. After a minute, he starts grinding on me and tries to kiss me. I put my hand in his face and tell him Iām a lesbian. He says something very vulgar that I donāt completely remember because I was drunk af.Ā I tell him to fuck off and I leave the dance floor completely. I end up on the patio with a beautiful butch girl and when I tell her what just happened, she offers to beat him up for me.Ā
A girl with a bachelorette party, telling me, with complete seriousness, that she was just discriminated against at the bar for being straight. What happened? The bartender didnāt pay attention to her immediately and she had to waitĀ āforeverā for her drink.Ā
Related: Almost every negative review of my favorite gay bar is by a straight person. At least half of them claim that the bartenders or bouncers discriminated against them.Ā
And then this one isnāt bad, it just made me laugh when it happenedĀ
Guy: hey can you ask the bartender for a drink for me? They usually pay more attention to girls Me: oh baby not here they donāt lol Guy: ?? Me: This is a gay bar, sweetheart Guy: Iā¦ ohā¦ *looks at the shirtless male bartenders, the go go boys, the rainbow flags, the drag queen behind me, the glitter everywhere* *walks away in a daze*
Okay first of all, youāre heterophobic if you think straight people are the cause of all of the problems in a gay bar.
Second, just, fuck off.
āheterophobicā
Yep, heterophobic, like homophobic but against straight people.
I am not against straight people! I canāt be heterophobic and I have like bunches of straight friends. They are great, we get together and do straight people stuff like mini golf and yelling outside of abortion clinics.
I canāt be heterophobic when I have at least three straight friends and I donāt judge them! Like, as long as they arenāt being straight in front of me because no one needs to see that lol. But no, I love the straights!
news flash: asking straights to be Decent Human Beings in queer spaces is now heterophobic
#JUSTICEFORMARIAHILL
so did she
Still trying to process the fact that Klaus was straight up killed,, by a furry, at a furry rave, met GOD then came back to life bc she thought that he was a bitch and mentioned precisely zero(0) of these facts to his siblings
What the fuck did I skip in a series of unfortunate events
Her name is Joely Proudfit, a descendant of theĀ Pechanga Band of Luiseno Indians.Ā
As a reminder, talking about native people like they are dead and gone is just as damaging and reductionist as those caricatures. Joely Proudfit is not a descendantĀ of the Pechanga. SheĀ isĀ Pechanga, because the Pechanga are still here. Native America is not a thing of the past. If youāre saying it like this, youāre either doing it because you unconsciously think of it that way, because you are dramatizing and romanticizing native people and their struggles, or both. Neither are good, and you should examine your words.
