“Crazy Dion” Diamond at one of his sit-ins as a teenager in Arlington, VA. June 10, 1960

All of those people around him are demons

[chemicallywrit]

hey guys! here’s some fun things i learned from this article about Dion Diamond:

he did these sit-ins by himself. like idk about you, but i always thought of sit-ins as organized by groups, what kind of bravery does it take, man

he didn’t tell anyone about it, like he was no glory-seeker about this. his parents didn’t even know until reporters started calling them up like “hey, did you know your son is in jail?

when someone called the cops he’d skedaddle out the back door although he was sent to prison multiple times

the last time he got arrested was in Baton Rouge, and the cops were so sick of him that they told inmates they’d put in a good word for anyone who gave Diamond a hard time. (the inmates didn’t take the bait.)

he’s still alive!

hark, a hero of our times!

skeleton of cave bear in Bears Cave, Romania

[daggersdawn]

wonder why it’s called that

[lrgcarter]

This sent me down a massive historical rabbit hole, but, long story short: it’s called Romania because there were once Romans there.

Anyway with anti-sodomy laws back on the discussion table I'm going to repeat that you can personally be squicked out by the consensual sex someone else has, but saying that their consensual sex between willing, active, adult participants should be illegal and is indicative of some sort of moral failing is L I T E R A L L Y a major facet in extreme homophobia and absolutely has gotten people killed.

You don't have to like their business but as long as everyone involved in the encounter is saying yes, it's also really not your business.

This is the precident you are helping further by digging your heels in and saying 'but I think it's gross and makes them bad people'. This is what happened last time that was the reasoning for law, and what is being threatened to happen again.

straight women should never have learned the word fruity from tiktok

[finalgrrrl]

like when you gossip about a guy who you suspect to be gay (based on his interests or fashion at that) and call him fruity thats just plain old homophobia idc

[finalgrrrl]

its very similar to the whole le$bean fiasco.... when people are scared to say the words gay and lesbian they will come up with the weirdest possible thing to call someone while also not acknowledging that being scared to say gay/lesbian is homophobic within of itself

Fun fact: Madam Zeroni, Yzma, and the signer of the song “Santa Baby” are the same person!

Eartha Kitt (1927-2008) was born in cotton fields in South Carolina as the result of a rape by a white plantation owner. Given away by her mother she moved to New York, dropped out of high school, and was homeless until she was discovered for her singing and performed touring Europe.

What an incredible woman.

[shutup-jacqueline]

I have to reblog…..its Madam Zeroni. I see her picture, i reblog. Not taking any chances

[tapraisha]

Her being Eartha Kitt is enough alone for me to reblog

[glumshoe]

Earths Kitt’s entire career is amazing. She was an outspoken civil rights activist and just an utterly good person. I remember hearing news of her death on the radio during a roadtrip and crying silently until we reached our destination.
