News Anchor in my area loses it over a Fat Cat that likes to swim.

This is such an interesting dissection of a very common trope in writing female characters that I never really thought about before, but it’s so prevalent and so obvious and so fucking disgusting.

ben horne so epitomizes everything about industrialized growth society, capitalism, the prison industrial complex, colonial violence, and so much of the fandom completely misses that those things are what killed laura palmer just as much as BOB. because BOB is the metaphysical manifestation of those things. Leland was ben’s attorney and was the person that made ben’s atrocities in twin peaks possible.

people say ben horne was set up as a red herring but it’s really not that inaccurate to say ben horne did, in fact, kill laura palmer, because laura palmer’s death is inextricably linked to the evils of capitalism and colonial violence that ben horne represents

and this is what bobby was trying to say at her funeral but lacked the vocabulary to do so

Diane and I suspect Bobby Briggs was referring to the fact that many people knew Laura was troubled but did not move to help. Ben Horne and others outright enabled the prostitution and drug abuse that led to Laura’s death.

Hugh Grosvenor becomes third wealthiest landowner in Britain and 68th wealthiest person in the world, according to Forbes

“If the new duke would pay taxes, the hole in the NHS can be plugged immediately and 78.000 cancer patients, who now have to wait for treatment can be helped immediately. If the new duke and his class would pay taxes, 4 million children would not grew up in poverty. It has been predicted that half of the children in the UK will grow up in poverty by 2020. There is nothing ‘academic’ about discussing issues of tax evasion, poverty and inequality – people die because of it, others never get a decent chance. What we are talking about are vicious crimes. It is nothing less than a criminal system.” - The duke of Westminster, feudalism, the history of social stratification, inequality and what to do about it

Okay, so this one takes some explaining. After I went away to school, my cat would only drink water out of a glass on the kitchen table and only if someone was sitting with him (that’s His Glass in the foreground). He will still only drink out of this glass, although he will drink alone, but if the water is more than like an hour old, he won’t touch it. My mom has decided that it is because someone told him about ‘microbes’ and so ‘microbes’ has become a running gag in our family.

And then, just today, my dad texted me this picture without context. I have never seen this book before in my life. But there it is. Puck finally found proof of his microbes.

mlk and civil rights protests in cartoons: then, as now

in the 1960s, america would have been all to happy to extend civil rights to blacks if only they weren’t all just a bunch of lawless looters and rioters.

good thing we’ve grown as a society since then!

in the 1960s, america would have gladly listened to civil rights leaders – if only they weren’t all just stoking so much darn violence all the time!

good thing mlk’s image has been rehabilitated and black leaders are taken seriously now!

in the 1960s, the value of human life was placed above that of inert property - if only those uppity blacks would just take our word for it

thankfully the value of black life is recognized today!

in the 1960s, america really wanted to give black protestors the benefit of the doubt – if only they weren’t just so darn complicit in their own oppression

thank god those antiquated views are all behind us now!

in the 1960s, jobs, education and housing were ripe for the picking for minorities – they just insisted on wasting all that energy on aimless protests instead!
