Bugs trump Grass because that’s their environment.

Confused about why Bug-Moves are super effective against Psychic.

[irischroma]

Bug, ghost, dark are strong against psychic because they are common fears/phobias ! (Yknow because Psychic….brains and all)

[primal-blaziken]

Still don’t get why Ghost beats Ghost.

one of these days im gonna start floating around casually what'll you do then huh

[binghsien]

How to have a conversation about a topic you’re not interested in or don’t know anything about:

Listen to what the other person has to say about the topic.

Ask a question about what they said. Asking them to clarify or explain something you don’t understand is great, but any question will do. All else fails, ask them to explain what they like about some part of the topic.

Listen to their responses and go back to step 2.

Do this until 5-15 minutes has passed, then change the subject to a topic of your interest, unless you are actually interested in learning more on this subject, in which case, go on for as long as you like.

Sometimes, they will say something like “I’m sorry to blather on about [topic].” This is an attempt at a conversational dismount. You can either say “no, it was fascinating, thanks” and then bring up your own topic, or you can say “no, it’s fascinating, please keep going” if you want to keep hearing about their topic. Note the tense difference (past -> moving on, present -> keep going).

I just thought I’d write a script for this, because someone who can’t / won’t do this came up in a Captain Awkward column, and listening about topics you have no interest in is a really useful skill to have and not often explicitly taught, particularly to boys and men.

This is really helpful advice for people with adhd/autism because we’re often not great at social skills and holding conversations

Malcolm X: Our History Was Destroyed By Slavery

on March 17, 1963 in Chicago.

[literatenonsense]

see how little we get taught about history - I never had any idea why Malcolm X used the ‘X’. 

[rifa]

How come I didn’t know this

Also that crusty old white man called the named ‘gifted’. Jesus.

[seangetfreaky]

This is disgusting

The majority of the owner-writers of Cards Against Humanity wanted to put the n-word into the game. After their one black staff member, Nicolas Carter, asked Max Temkin, founder of Cards Against Humanity about the reasons behind each person saying ‘yes’ to doing so, and how it happened, Temkin told the head writers to fire him.

CAH head staff escalated things by contacting Carter’s family, threatening ‘disciplinary action’ and to fire Carter, then a staff member helped get Carter wrongly institutionalized, where he faced heavy racism.

FUCK Cards Against Humanity

[deyasworld]

Guys, read the article. His writing is collected and lucid. The things he’s saying are very, very disturbing nonetheless.

The article addresses his personal experience in double standards, and having to break the ( Black ) Glass Ceiling at work but knowing to deescalate to save himself. It talks about capitalism and compliance for the sake of your financial state. It talks about being set up, gaslit, and betrayed by people who pretended to listen, and about said people power harassing you beyond the experience, and intimidate you and your must vulnerable and unrelated family members.

He was reported as having “disappeared” for two years while he was in the mental asylum. The company tried to make him sign a disclosure contract a week after he was released. They also tracked him to his work place and convinced their boss to fire him.

It’s a collected plea for attention and action. It is very painful to read how the Cards Against Humanity writer and owners team got away with so much, and all because they wanted the N-Word Pass on their stupid game ( which he learned was the reason he was hired in the first place ).

These are the three influential people mentioned in the article:

Jo Feldman: Co-Head Writer, married to Andy Kushnir.

Andy Kushnir: a writer in Cards Against Humanity and husband of Jo Feldman. He was the guy who reported and filed the “evidence” of Nick’s “strange behavior”. He was also the person who made the report to the mental health institution. His LinkedIn is unavailable and his website was taken down.

Julia Weiss: Co-Head Writer, who was reportedly out in Germany when Andy and Jo threatened Nick and sent him to the mental health institution. The Weiss_Tea Twitter has been deleted.

ok but the hunger games literally did mention it All like… the use of propaganda by the elite as an attempt to divide the minority groups they oppress by making them perceive each other as rivals and prevent them from recognizing and uniting against their real enemy? check. criticism of the way we consume media with no consideration for other people’s privacy like we’re entitled to every detail of their lives and a lack of empathy for their pain because it makes good entertainment? yeah. realistic depictions and explorations of the effects of trauma, particularly that caused by conflict? hunger games has you covered. acknowledgement of the existence of and links between racism and classism, and that conventional standards of beauty are influenced by the societal elite, which people are encouraged to harm themselves in order to conform to (the fact that the weathier people in district 12 are white, blonde and blue-eyed while the coal miner families are mostly people of color; that the two poorest districts, 11 and 12, have majority poc populations; that most people, katniss herself included, consider prim to be prettier than katniss partly because she looks like her white, blonde, blue-eyed mother, who was from the wealthier part of the district; that the first thing that happens to the tributes when they’re taken to the capitol is they they’re “prepped” to conform to capitol beauty standards before they even meet their stylists in ways that literally violate their bodies permanently, and that many of the capitol residents have extreme body modifying surgery that can take a severe toll on their health and wellbeing in the long term)? none of this is accidental, and is both brought up and criticised multiple times throughout the trilogy. the sexualization of minors for adult consumption, especially young celebrities? the fact that politicians in positions of power and authority gain those positions through corruption and by considering anyone harmed in their acension collateral damage? the significance of propaganda and social influence in modern warfare? the misery caused by poverty, which is caused and intentionally maintained by the wealthy elite? the brutal and violating experience of living in a surveillance police state, especially as a member of a minority group and/or poor person? the inherently immoral and corruptive nature of warfare and the military and the unimaginable atrocities and suffering it leads to for ordinary civilians? every YA dystopia novelist tried so hard to be mrs collins but most didn’t even understand half of what went into her books that made them so compelling.

2020 Radical Feminist / TERF block list

This contains the URLs of known TERFS or people who perpetrate transphobic/transmisogynistic bullshit, propaganda, and violent anti-transgender mentality.

If your URL is on this list because you happened to have reblogged accidentally from OP who is a TERF, please send an ask for removal.

I have used Shinigami Eyes and mass blocked users who directly or indirectly interacted with a TERF. It is better to be safe than sorry since TERFs are extremely dangerous to the trans community ESPECIALLY to transgender women.

If there are any URL repeats, please let me know.
