I recently got an on-campus job. During the interview process, I requested that I not be scheduled on Friday nights or Saturdays as I am a Jewish student.
My boss immeadiately brightened and rushed to explain - "Of course ! Of course! We want to accomodate you! We have another worker who takes off for Ramadan. Do you need to take off for Ramadan?"
I shook my head, incredibly confused. "Uh. That's. Not my jurisdiction. I'm good." Boss nodded but was sure to add "Let me know if that ever changes. We can help you with Ramadan."
Gamergate was like 200 people. And now look where we are. “A lot of emails” on a topic to congressional staffers is like, 20. Are politicians spineless idiots? Yes. Use that to your advantage! Is this the only thing you can be doing? No! But it can be the first.
The internet has completely short circuited our sense of scale. The number of people required to move almost any needle is remarkably low. Your involvement in local causes, political pressure WILL have an impact.
Ok, get out there.
as an eldest sibling i am mortified it has taken me almost a decade to see mycroft in this light im gonna go cry now
My aunt: But how can you like Mycroft? He's unpleasant and he always makes messes and he is so full of himself-
Me, on the verge of tears: IT'S ABOUT THE KIN, IT'S ABOUT THE MAKING IT ON HIS OWN, IT'S ABOUT THE INDEPENDENCY, IT'S ABOUT THE LONELINESS, IT'S ABOUT KEEPING THE FAMILY TOGETHER, IT'S ABOUT ABSORBING THE BLOWS OF EMOTIONALLY UNAVAILABLE FAMILY MEMBERS, IT'S ABOUT THE SELF HATRED, IT'S ABOUT BEING THE ONE YOU DON'T NEED TO WORRY ABOUT, IT'S ABOUT KEEPING SECRETS, IT'S ABOUT SURVIVING WHEN YOUR FAMILY IS GOING DOWN-
yellowjackets fans who don't fuck with taivan are the weakest links. you all will see two skinny feminine white girls stand next to each other and wax poetic about how much they mean to each other and their beautiful homoerotic longing but the moment there's a canonical lesbian relationship between a black woman and her butch girlfriend suddenly you don't give a fuck. "Oh, but tai cheated on her wife.." THEY EAT PEOPLE!!! THEY'RE ALL MURDERERS!!!! WHY ARE WE POLICING THEIR MORALS SIT DOWN AND ENJOY THE TOXICITY LIKE THE REST OF US!!!
“Omg, I love these! They go up to size 6X AND they have pockets?! Wow!! But do you have anything longer?”
Sure do, no problem!!
“YES these are great!!! But what about.. longer?”
I gotcha!! Comin’ right up!
“Perfect! But I have just one more question… what if I’m feeling spicy? How about skirts that are even shorter than the first ones?!”
Oh, you’re in luck! We’ve got minis now.
*wild cheering*

being raised conservative is so funny to look back on. like it’s not but the arguments they made are and finding the holes in them is great. like my old pastor used to talk ab how gay people got divorced more- i guess encouraging ppl to divorce their partners (unbiblical) or to continue being gay w their partners (unbiblical). like dude if u think about that for more than 10 seconds ur gonna shit urself realizing by your own standards you are encouraging people to “sin” either way and both are considered taboo sins within the church. the bible belt is so fucking stupid everything is like this down here
Okay I do not give a shit about this article at all but where did they get this picture of the skeleton wearing prescription pill armor
Like this is the coolest fucking thing I have seen in a while who made this
took me a long time to realize i like confusing people and that’s ok. sometimes u need to just baffle ppl. leave them something w no explanation that they will have to think about. i love confusing people
would like to memorialize this ironic, pathetic, and disgusting post from my former pastor. “ACT LIKE MEN BE STRONG.” shame on you. shame on you for encouraging men to continue hiding their emotions and feelings. shame on you for making men think they cannot be vulnerable. shame on you for using aggressive words and sentence structure to scare and excite your trusting congregation. shame on you for spitting hatred toward members of the LGBTQ+ community. shame on you for spitting hatred at the “sinners” who trust your word. i trusted you and i have never been so disappointed by a former leader.
there is no hate like christian love.
