Keep Calm and Ship @series-junkie-de - Tumblr Blog

I was ready to die today, but you and Alex and everyone refused to let that happen.

Twitter fans are planning to show their appreciation for all the hard work Matt and Harry do for us by tweeting #ThankYouHarryAndMatt. Fans are welcome to take part during the planned trending time (6PM EST time) and spread some much needed positivity.

The fact that racist people really think physical attraction is void of social power structures is beyond me.

No, science and biology didn’t make you not attracted to an entire race of people. Racism did that.

It’s called a preference???

Did you not read the post? You can’t have a preference that excludes an entire race of people without being racist. Where do you think those preferences come from?

Especially preferences that exclude people of color. We learn what race/ethnicity/phenotype are attractive by the social power structures we are surrounded by.

There’s absolutely no possible way for a person to find every single black, or every single Asian or every single (Insert race) person unattractive because there is so much physical, phenotypical and internal diversity within each race.

So, as an example, folks who say “I’m not attracted to black people, that’s just my preference” what they are really saying is “I don’t want to be with black people because I have been taught to think they are ugly, undesirable, and I know nothing about how diverse black people are”

Tl;dr preferences are not void of social power structures :)

arrow season four appreciation week: day three favorite romantic relationship → Felicity Smoak & Oliver Queen

Felicity… before I met you, I had a plan. I had a way that I was gonna be. But then you walked into my life. Or, I… I…showed up at your cubicle and… you changed everything. I was in darkness. But with your kindness, your generosity, your compassion, your intelligence, your wit, and your trust… you brought me into the light. You let me know… that I deserved it. You were that light. And I don’t know if I still deserve that trust… if I deserve you. I probably don’t. But whatever has happened, whatever will happen, the way that you make me feel is the best part of my life. You can ask me to say that I don’t love you… that I will never lie to you again. You are my always. And I just want the chance to be yours.
