Frank stop. Go read a book or yell at a cloud it would be just as useful as this statement you left on Twitter.

This is what people mean when they say that privilege is invisible to the people who have it. It never occurred to him that knowing someone’s orientation would be important to anyone, because to him, a straight man, representation is everywhere. It’s overabundant. It’s so common as to be taken for granted. To him, representation of his sexuality isn’t important because it’s there. 

I love that he learned. I love watching people understand their own blind spots when it comes to privilege.

People in the notes are saying only famous fat men, but the thing is women are considered irredeemably fat at the same general body shape men are just considered a lil fat.

You can’t separate the way society treats fat people from misogyny, and that’s the point.

If you write down the results and properly format the paper, it even counts as science!

When I was in college, there was a solid year where our lgbt group did this with two bathrooms at the end of a hall that were used by like, maybe 20 people. They would put up gendered signs and we kept stealing them. And then we started writing random things on the walls INCLUDING full word for word copies of personal ads from the back of 1980′s advocate magazines.

It got to the point where the building management was on a hunt trying to find who was doing this and we had to start hiding our faces so as to not get caught on the security cameras. Our faculty advisor came down to the office one day and was like “do you guys know anything about this” essentially as we’re trying to close a comically full drawer of stolen bathroom signs, and we’re like “no” and they were like “great.”

They never caught us.

at this point, saying “www” before a website is like saying “planet earth” after an adress

Nope. No. You’re wrong. Color photos have been around since the late 1800s there are a bunch of full color photos of MLK. The us govt and educational system just doesn’t show us because they want us to push back the civil rights movement and distance institutionalized racism from today’s society.

Here are just a few of many photos of MLK in FULL color. This wasn’t that long ago. This is RECENT history. Segregation, the terrorizing of black communities, the brutality isn’t old - it is still present.

When my dad was a little boy, my grandfather was one of the ministers who marched with MLK on Washington. He grew up hearing stories about the great Dr. king and the differences he made BUT he still saw the blatant discrimination against black folks and other people of color (hell he experienced it himself). My dad was a kid watching MLK. My DAD. My grandfather who only passed away about six years ago MARCHED with him. This isn’t twelve generations ago. THIS IS RECENT HISTORY.

Star Trek: TOS was filmed in color and MLK watched it with his family, so they definitely had color photography at the time.

Nichelle Nichols was going to leave after the first season, but MLK told her that it was the only show he and his wife would let their children stay up to watch and she HAD to stay because people seeing her in that role on tv was so important. (It’s a digression but I love that story so much.)

I should’ve known better // but the liquor got me thinking I missed ya // should’ve taken ten steps back // but I wanted to kiss ya

and every time you flash those eyes // you make me reminisce, yeah // you’re looking fine but I’d be lying // if I said I want you back

[theworldisoursdear]

“I think it says a lot about you the way you left things. How you went from kissing me in the rain to leaving my texts unreplied. The way you touched me and then disappeared without a word. Or how that night I went home not realizing it was the last time I’d see you again. I don’t care that you decided you weren’t interested anymore, I care that you left me waiting for someone who was never coming back. I care that you didn’t even have it in you to simply say ‘this isn’t what I want’. Maybe we were never going to last forever, but I think I deserved to at least hear it from your mouth and not your silence.”
