Do whatever you need to do to make your life worth living; just don't be mean.

Like, you want janitors and McDonald fast food workers and cleaners.

You just don’t want them to make a liveable wage and have healthcare and be treated like proper human beings.  

[black-to-the-bones-deactivated2]

This is important.

I keep seeing this fucking argument about trans people using bathrooms like “Well if that had been an option for me back in the day I totally would’ve signed up as a ‘trans-whatever’ to get into the girls’ locker room back in high school”  (Yeah, the fuckwit on FB I saw earlier actually said ‘trans-whatever’).

Like, you really, genuinely think that you, as a 16 year old presumably straight teenage boy would have changed your name, requested everyone you know call you by different pronouns, changed your entire wardrobe and look, went to school presenting yourself as a girl, dealt with the bullshit you would likely have gotten from your parents, family, friends, classmates, teachers, doctors, neighbors, people on the street, and rearranged your entire life…

Because you maybe, might have possibly caught a glimpse of a titty in the locker room?

Yeah, it’s clearly the trans people we should be worried about.

I always find it interesting that they seem to think that declaring “Given the opportunity I absolutely would have been a sexual predator” is a defense of their position.

“How can we take down this flag and erase the honor of those proud Americans-”

Confederates weren’t Americans. They were actual, honest-to-god Not Americans; that was the whole fucking point of the Civil War. They were a bunch of people who collectively said “fuck America” and then spent years desperately fighting in order to not be Americans anymore. Flying the Confederate flag doesn’t honor Americans, it honors Confederates, and they don’t exist anymore because they lost the war, so there is no goddamn point to this flag ever at all. Right-wing folks really love to talk about “anti-American sentiments” and “treason” until it comes to the (white) people who actually did commit treason and were anti-American in every sense of the word.

Don’t think they want it either way. They want him to just not exist…

Meanwhile white men caught preparing terrorist attacks are not charged under terrorism laws.

I suppose I should stop mourning my mother and put a fresh coat of paint on the mildewed doors. I know my sons are not here because it’s quiet and easy to mourn… it’s now my job to sweep… from the stove where just last summer she stood baking the boys’ first strawberry rhubarb pie.

Fox News’ Shepard Smith called Trump out for his BS — and his conservative viewers are livid

I think I’ve fallen into a parallel universe.

2017 is about finding healthy ways to cope

[scornpios]

I was wrong, 2017 is about fighting nazis.

Someone has to leave first. This is a very old story. There is no other version of this story.

I want to be really clear about something: Planned Parenthood has done more to prevent abortion than the pro-life movement ever has.

[venusianhag]

lmao fuck this hippie bullshit. our moral high ground is permanent and unwavering because we’re not trying to ruin lives based on skin color or religion.

destroy nazis, because if we don’t, they’ll kill us. literally.

never EVER forget that.

[party-wok]

non-violent resistance isn’t going to work! stop being a limp-wristed liberal and get ready to put up or shut up.
