July is disability awareness month but a lot of people tend to forget it :/ :/ :/
It’s all OK if you didn’t know, don’t feel bad about it, it’s a great occasion to listen to disabled people! We might not have pretty flags who will catch your attentions like during pride months, but we’re still here!

Boy I sure am glad none of you are dumb enough to be reblogging anti voting propaganda in the middle of an election year.
I’m serious. I’m sick of seeing good people, people I know and respect, reblogging things like “this is just proof that voting does nothing” and “things you can do besides vote/alternatives to voting”. I’m sick of seeing so called “leftist Tumblr” making posts actively encouraging people not to vote. Voting gave us Reagan. Voting gave us Bush. Voting gave us 4 years of Donald Trump and it’ll give us 4 years more if you decide to stay home. VOTING CAUSED THIS HELL YEAR. Either you claim that power for yourself or you give it to the enemy and the enemy has already proven what they can do with it. FUCKING VOTE YOU ASSHOLES.
If voting didn't matter, why are they trying so damn hard to prevent so many people from voting?
Abandoned Soviet buildings aren’t near as depressing as fast food restaurants around every corner in America
this image is depression
Most of all how placeless and contextless it is. If you live in America, you have been here. No matter where in America you live. No matter how far you run, this place will always find you, and you will always end up there.
people with ADHD be having idle animations like a video game character
I just remembered that Aang straight up grabbed Ozai by his goatee and that pretty much started the beginning of the end for him right then and there and now I just picture Fire Nation advisors being like Edna Mode except instead of 'No capes' it's 'NO POINTY GOATEES'
hey guys, no shit that democrats are also accountable for police violence. even black dems have been known to be pretty impartial on this issue and you can see it from the mayor of minneapolis who hasn’t done much to ease tensions between the police and the protestors.
but you still need to vote democrat anyway.
we can not survive another four years of this presidency. there will be more deaths from police brutality, there will be more deaths from ice prison camps, there will be more deaths from serious health complications. there will be hatred, more negligence, more pain, more incompetence. there will still be a threat of our democracy falling into fascism, if it hasn’t already.
biden will not solve everything. hell, he’s not my first choice either. but it’s a start. everyone making these awful takes like “democrats won’t solve everything so don’t vote for them” will literally solve NOTHING. it will create divisions that put trump in office in the first place.
so please. if you don’t vote democrat or choose not to vote at all, you are actively choosing to let donald trump get another four years. easily.
please, still protest. please, still sign petitions and go to rallies and continue to fight for equality and justice. i am going to do the same. but don’t forget to vote him out this november.
hi this is the WORST take actually. I promise you that in the history of presidential elections, third party votes NEVER WORK. All it does is divide the parties (specifically, the Democratic Party because trump has a fairly solid base of loyal voters who, despite the atrocities he’s committed in office, will continue to blindly follow him.)
America is not set up for third party candidates.
Voting third party only serves to divide parties; in this case specifically, as it was last election year, it serves to divide the Democratic Party.
Don’t be fooled this year. Voting democrat is the only realistic way to get trump out of office, and that in itself will be a huge feat while he is trying to establish a dictatorship.
Of course, we have so much more to change. We should keep protesting, keep shouting, keep forcing them to look at us. We have to help each other, but it’s easier to do that with Biden in office than Trump. I promise you.
TL;DR: while it’s important to keep protesting to enact change, remember that in November, voting third party won’t help anything. Please vote for Biden. Even though he’s not the best choice (or even a great choice), it’s still better for this country than another four years of trump.
The time to “send a message to the Democrats” is during the primary not the general, and guess what it worked, the message was sent and heard. Now we vote for Biden and keep paying attention and hold him accountable and let him know what the American people want. We need to get Biden elected president.
Protesting and voting are not mutually exclusive. Do both. Both work.
It’s not just that “both work”. In order for protesting to shame leaders into coming to the table, that leader must first be capable of shame. It is strategic for your movement to elect people who are interested at the very least in LOOKING like they’re doing the right thing.
2020 with every new month
the illusion was always that we just had to do it. just “do” the homework. the meal prep. the college application. just write the email, send the homework, follow up with that interview, clean your room. these are easy things, one-click things, two-hours-max things. we had so many people in our lives shout it at us. “why didn’t you just do it!”
often my answer was a soft i don’t know. an i-got-tired when actually it was more like - i couldn’t. i just couldn’t. it feels like everything is covered in snow. don’t you know that i’m mad at myself too? i want this stuff just as much as you do. i want to live in a clean house with good food and have an okay job and know i’m not disappointing the people i’m coming home to. i don’t like missing opportunities and having to scramble in a panic about last-minute things.
i’m a fully grown adult. she is posing for a pic on insta. if you want a life like this, go out and get it. it’s 2pm and i haven’t eaten breakfast. i am staring at the space where i should be working.
her video has a laugh. “just do it!”

They were FORCED INTO CONCENTRATION CAMPS WTF LA TIMES
thiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiis is how you normalize fascism
For context, the tweet was published in 2016, when everything went down.
The highlighted section in the tweet was part of a regular “letter to the editor” column in the LA Times travel section (here). Two a**hole readers wrote in with some really a**hole thoughts about an article about Japanese internment that section had published (here). The LA Times travel editors published without like using basic common sense and thinking huh, maybe these guys are actually not good to give a massive platform for their bad opinions. Even the editor who wrote the headlines was like oh nothing blatantly wrong to see here
Everyone got mad, naturally, and the LA Times editor in chief apologized (here).
So the whole thing was very stupid, but at least they apologized.
Virginia’s territorial claims over the years.
with your donations, we can reduce virginia even further
