Some funky Spice Girls shoes

I love that I immediately knew that these were the lower halves of the Spice Girls 😂 but of course, they were ICONIC, so... 😏💖🥰

This is the Goose of Outrageous Self Assuredness.  Take from her example, her ludicrous and excellent poise in the face of bullying, and be confident in your place, your course, your equal validity.

I’m always amazed by the amount of fucks geese refuse to give.

[fuckyeah-nerdery]

This is it, this is everything you need to know about geese in one video.

“Never did like that much,” is a baller and superb way to express your irritation with the way the patriarchy refuses to acknowledge how badass you are.

Before World War I, she shot a cigarette out of the mouth of the Kaiser of Germany at his request.

After the war started she sent him a letter asking for another chance, as she was afraid her aim might’ve been a little off.

On National Coming Out Day, I'm looking for ways to express what I've come out as in the past. Stevonnie--Stevonnie *running* with joy--is pretty emotionally accurate. 😊

Celebrating the Real Women of the SFFD with @christiehemmklok

Christie is part of Women Photograph (@womenphotograph), a global catalog of independent women photojournalists on a mission to elevate female voices. We’re celebrating her story for #InternationalWomensDay.

Her toddler’s obsession with firefighters lit a 🔥 under photographer Christie Hemm Klok (@christiehemmklok). “He had 10 books all about firefighters. I think maybe one of them had a very short-haired woman. That was the extent of it,” says Christie.

While in art school, she had the idea to document female firefighters, but her local station in Southern California didn’t have any women. This time, she reached out to United Fire Service Women, a nonprofit that advocates for women in the San Francisco Fire Department. “The timing was right,” says Christie — their response was immediate. The organization was looking for a photographer to help celebrate the 30-year anniversary of women in the department.

“When women are in male-dominated careers, especially careers like firefighting or something that’s really labor intensive, I don’t think they always get viewed as regular people,” says Christie. “The greatest part about the project is that I got to meet every single kind of person, from every walk of life. And that’s the thing, you don’t have to be supernatural to be a female firefighter. You just have to be a regular woman.”

Chris rock..I’ve lost respect for you.

Chris Rock on his new Netflix special: “I want to live in a world where an equal amount of white kids are shot every month…I want to see white mothers on TV crying.”

This is disgusting, Netflix. Fucking disgusting. Especially right after that shooting..seriously inappropriate. Even by my standards and dark sense of humor, this is crossing a line.

1-866-579-7172 - That’s the number for Netflix Customer Service.

Imagine being offended by something like this.

[vincentvanleggo-deactivated2018]

So what you’re really saying is you’re OK with the amount of black kids getting killed but not a hypothetical scenario where the same amount of white kids are being killed at the rate of black kids

You either didn’t think this through or you thought it through and proved you’re an asshole good job

[kingjaffejoffer]

When someone wants to be offended by something they will discard all kinds of context to make that happen

[kngshxt-deactivated20180831]

lmaoooooo

[arrojenkins]

it’s pretty obvious there isn’t a lot of real thinking going on with ‘them’

[goldensweetcheeks-deactivated20]

My dude brought out the customer service number lmao

Imagine being this ignorant/ racist and missing the entire point

I... <groan> @softnbratty did it best: lord. Like, LAAAWD. <clutches pearls, rips them off, scatters them outward with a fling, hopefully into some ignorant-ass faces, like just enough to give them a little fright and get mad that it was just me ruining Great-Grandma Ida's jewellery but then they look what the fuck is happening and maybe DO something>

Frrrrr real though... 😥

I feel like... things like Women's Day and Take Back The Night and Slut Walk are, kind of? For me? Because I know that most people who see me see "a girl" (except on those glorious days where people give me those beautiful "I'm not...sure...how I should...I mean--oh gahd please give me some social indicator so I know how to address and interact with you...!!" It's not your confusion I like but rather the fact that you're *challenging* your cognitive dissonance over another person's appearance and seeking truth rather than just slapping your own perceptions on them. 😀 )

In any case, I think it's great all those events above and similar are female-focused, because the equality of (what most people see as) "not-males" is still not quite equality. As long as we keep these (and events focused more on other genders!) inclusive for everyone who gets something positive from being involved, as long as they are allies to those who live truthfully to the spirit of such events...however they identify, whatever their body is like, no matter what cartoons they watch (or not)... let's work and be together! 🤗❣

[laurenzuke]

made a lil video for trans* visibility day, i hope all of you out there are able to be kind to yourselves on this day and im really happy to be a part of such a loving community! thank you!

A little late to repost but always a good message. 😊 This nonbinary genderfluid genderqueer (but *most* importantly) SU fan thanks you for posting, @laurenzuke! 💜💙💚💛❤💓

Don't let the exhausted look fool you. I has excitement. #unilife #CreightonGraduation #totheleft Congratulations, fellow graduates! 🤗😰🙆‍♀️💝🍾🍻☄🌈🎊📯🎬🕉⚙🏳️‍🌈✌💓🖖 (at CenturyLink Center Omaha)

[themadhatkat]

So I decided to extend my social media break into a break for at least another week until I get caught up in my school life (fun stuff coming, by the way). As far activism stuff goes, I'm still keeping up on the news and saving articles to share layer. Oh, and the March For Science has been in touch with me; organising in Omaha, WOO! As always, I'm reachable by phone, text, Facebook Messenger, Google Hangouts, and carrier pigeons. See you soon! ✌💓🖖

[themadhatkat]

Ooh, another goodie! This one is also pretty close to its English cousin. "Lieber ein Spatz in der Hand als eine Taube auf dem Dach." "Rather a sparrow in the hand than a dove in the bush." Or as we English-speakers might say, "A bird in the hand is worth two in the bush." 😊 #learninglanguages #learningGerman #Duolingo #idioms

[themadhatkat]

I actually like this one! "Der Tropfen, der das Fass zum Überlauften bringt." Loosely translated, I'm gonna say, "This is the drop that makes the barrel overflow." ("Brings the barrel to overflowing" might be another way.) Close English idiom: "The straw that breaks the camel's back." #learninglanguages #learningGerman #Duolingo #DeutscheSpracheschwereSprache #idioms

[themadhatkat]

Loosely translated...uuummm..."It is still no Mr. From-Heaven that's fallen." Maybe. Something like that. But anyway, a close English idiom is "Practise makes perfect." 😂 Deutsche Sprache, schwere Sprache! #learninglanguages #learningGerman #DeutscheSpracheschwereSprache #Duolingo #idioms #theyllgetchya
