What I love about this scene: her counselor doesn’t write her off and scoff at her for being determined, she accepts it and says, “Okay. Well if you really want it, here’s what you need to do next”, and sets out a game plan. HashtagWomenSupportingWomen.

Someone: hires a woman

Men: “THIS IS LITERAL OPRESSION”

[spacemonkeyg78]

The automatic assumption that recruiting women equals hiring less qualified people is some serious sexism at work.

Front Desk (2018)

Mia Tang has a lot of secrets.

Number 1: She lives in a motel, not a big house. Every day, while her immigrant parents clean the rooms, ten-year-old Mia manages the front desk of the Calivista Motel and tends to its guests.

Number 2: Her parents hide immigrants. And if the mean motel owner, Mr. Yao, finds out they’ve been letting them stay in the empty rooms for free, the Tangs will be doomed.

Number 3: She wants to be a writer. But how can she when her mom thinks she should stick to math because English is not her first language?

It will take all of Mia’s courage, kindness, and hard work to get through this year. Will she be able to hold on to her job, help the immigrants and guests, escape Mr. Yao, and go for her dreams?

Aesthetic: green parking lots

They improve infiltration of water to the soil, thus reducing floods by excessive drainage from soil-sealed land, and contribute to environmental and human health! Also they look pretty.

[politijohn]

Being shortsighted isn’t a good look.

1972 - Bernie wrote a letter in support of abolishing all laws dealing with abortion, sexual behavior (adultery, homosexuality, etc.), and drugs

1983 - Sanders signed the first proclamation to create the first Gay & Lesbian Pride Day in Burlington, VT

1985 - Burlington passes proclamation protecting LGBTQ people from housing and employment discrimination

1993 - When Congress members attacked non-discrimination in DC, Sanders voted “no”

1993 - Voted “no” on ‘Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell’

1995 - Sanders rebuked Rep. Randy “Duke” Cunningham for using the word “homos” when talking about gay people in the military

1996 - Voted against the Defense of Marriage Act (DOMA)

1999 - When Congress tried to keep domestic partners from adopting children in DC, Sanders voted “no”

2001 - When Congress tried to keep domestic partners from receiving health benefits, Sanders challenged it

2004 - Voted against the constitutional amendment banning gay marriage

2007 - Voted to expand and strengthen penalties for violent crimes committed in the basis of sexual orientation

2009 - Voted to expand federal hate crimes to cover offenses motivated by gender identity and sexual orientation

2009 - Supported Vermont’s first-in-the-country law legalizing gay marriage

2010 - Voted to overturn “don’t ask, don’t tell”

2011 - Called on President Obama to support marriage equality

2013 - Co-sponsored the Employment Non-Discrimination Act

2013 - Co-sponsored the United Families Act to allow LGBTQ Americans to bring their partners to the Us

2014 - Co-sponsored the International Human Rights Defense Act

2015 - Co-sponsored Civil Rights to include sexual orientation and gender identity protected categories

2016 - Co-sponsored Bill to designate June 26, 2016 as LGBTQ Equality Day

2016 - Bernie condemned conversion therapy

2017 - Co-sponsored the Every Child Deserves a Family Act which prohibits foster care entities from receiving federal assistance if they discriminate against prospective LGBTQ parents

2018 - Committed to passing the Equality Act

2019 - Has proposed a comprehensive housing plan that addresses societal homelessness, which disproportionately impacts the LGBTQ community

2019 - Committed to advancing policies that ensure fair treatment for transgender people who are targeted by police unfairly

But yeah, Bernie Sanders “skipping” a forum on LGBTQ rights to host campaign rallies is breaking news

[variks-the-warden]

This is the exact same propaganda that got spread to get people to not vote for Hillary. Don’t buy into it and start thinking people like Bernie or Warren are bad choices because they’re still the best options for your votes right now

[just-shower-thoughts]

The story of Superman and Moses are actually very similar. Both were sent away in a capsule, as their family was about to be killed, and were adopted into another family. After reaching adulthood, they used their special powers to benefit those around them

[mrbenibo]

Yeah it’s almost as though Superman’s creators were Jewish and that was an intentional parallel.

[earthshaker1217]

The superman and Jesus parallel was probably more intentional.

But the parallel Moses and Jesus is also intentional for another reason.

[brehaaorgana]

no, i promise you it wasn’t. the creators of superman were Jewish they were not referencing Jesus at all. Superman’s name is literally Ka-El. It’s Hebrew. There are multiple books about Superman’s Jewish origins. (Up, Up, and Oy Vey; Superman is Jewish?; and Mensch of Steel. It’s also covered in the book Superman: The High-Flying History of America’s Most Enduring Hero). It’s been suggested that Siegel and Shuster would have almost certainly been familiar with (also Jewish!) strongman Zishe Breitbart, who was billed as the “Superman of the Ages.”

no one was paralleling jesus in the creation of Superman. 

other people superman was based off of/inspired by:

creator Jerry Siegel, who posed for some of the early designs (and was obviously Jewish)

his father, Mitchell (still Jewish) who died after an armed robbery

Stanley Weiss, who was Jewish, and posed for the design updates in 1945. below is a picture of his son, holding one of those sketches:

Siegel and Shuster were not paralleling Jesus. 

[littlemissonewhoisall]

“Superman and Jesus parallel”

Hey, Christians: NOT EVERY PURE OF HEART PERSON IS JESUS.

[rosietwiggs]

someone please stop The Goyim™ i am tired

[jabberwockypie]

Really, just like … not EVERYTHING needs to get shoved into a Jesus-shaped hole. (Wait, that sounded wrong.) It’s not a bad story, but it’s not the ONLY story, and it’s really disrespectful toward creators and characters that aren’t Christian.

Plenty of heroes can also NOT be Jesus!

(Especially considering how many superheroes had Jewish creators. It was weird when they did the Jesus thing with Spider-man, too. Not as egregious as Superman, who is clearly, BLATANTLY Moses, but still weird.)

I am a glorified office administrator who understands server hardware why am I the only person in this company who gets what social engineering is?

[ms-demeanor]

Total stranger on the phone who we’ve never spoken to before: I have power of attorney over the CEO of this corporation and we are a customer of yours. Please change the administrator password on the server to XXXXX

My boss, putting on white grease paint and a red wig: Oh, of course! Let’s do it quickly so that you’ll want to keep working with us since you’re going to be making business decisions!

Me: I would sell you to satan for one corn chip and I’m allergic to corn but before you do this maybe you should call someone who is actually on our contact list for our customer and see if they’ve ever heard of this stranger.

My boss, looking through a selection of shoes that honk when you walk: Oh, but she said that it was very important that none of the employees know what was happening because they’re making staffing changes.

Me: As your lawyer I recommend that you just call a single one of our contacts and see if they’ve ever heard of her name.

My boss, shoving all of our technicians into a VW beetle: You’re not my lawyer.

Me: HOW THE FUCK WOULD YOU KNOW? I COULD BE! YOU SHOULD MAYBE CHECK ON THAT.

[yoursjupiter]

TIL everyone’s employee ID at my company is the last five of their SSN.

Boss: On the bright side, it’s only the last five

Me: YOU CAN COMMIT FRAUD WITH FOUR

Security firms that are hired to check the security of banks will often use the following tactic: They will walk up to the teller in a suit with their ID badge and a clipboard and go:

“Hello I am [name] from [security firm] we’ve been hired to verify the security of the facility I need to see your computers.”

“Erm…I’ll have to verify that with my managers.”

“Congratulations, you have just passed the security verification.” [Scribbles on clipboard] “But in all seriousness I do need to verify your security so I need to see your computers.”

“Oh okay.” AND LETS THEM IN.

[palindromordnilap-deactivated20]

“Social engineering” is a way too fancy word for what it is. I know a guy (not personally) who broke several people out of prison by essentially writing “Greetings, please release this person, signed, whoever the judge is” on a piece of paper and faxing it there. Because no one would have a fax machine in their own house I guess.

[closet-keys]

not to derail, but holy shit that praxis
