Hey fellow Pride Knights! Today is May 17th, which means it is International Day Against Homophobia, Transphobia, and Biphobia! A date which commemorates the day in 1990 when the World Health Organisation removed homosexuality as a mental illness. 

That’s why I ask my followers to submit pictures of themselves doing those activities so we can all see ourselves represented and that we are not alone in doing them! 

There are a number of students in my GCSE class that have behavioural issues and if they feel uncomfortable they can do anything from storm out of the classroom to throwing chairs and punching their tables. They’re great kids, they just dont always see the light at the end of the tunnel and when they are in stressful situations they dont know what to do other than lash out sometimes. They are 10 months away from their final exams and the pressure is being mounted on them in every aspect of their school lives.

Last week one of the students saw me making little origami stars. Its something I do when I’m feeling anxious to help me focus on something else. He asked if I could show him how to make them. He had been clenching his fists all lesson, which I’ve noticed is a tell that he is struggling to retain composure. I gave him a strip of paper and talked it through with him. Soon half of the class were asking me to show them. They all picked it up really quickly.

After about five minutes and about 8 stars later, the student sat back down and was in a much calmer and motivated mood for the rest of the lesson. Our next lesson I placed a box of paper strips on my desk and when I saw anyone getting worked up about their work I silently placed a strip in front of them and let them get on with it. The lesson after I was amazed to see that students would go up to the box of their own accord, pick up a few strips and head back to their desks to continue working after calming down.

It is perfect!

Even ones for the specific areas in the LGBT community 

How the fuck is this any different? Why is it everytime black people come up with something for themselves y'all have to come out with this show your entire asses with this “"segregation” shit. 

guys shut the fuck up this is the only thing im gonna talk about for the rest of all time 

Apart from that, the turbine also contains inbuilt sensors like carbon footprint sensors, to detect earthquakes and IOT platform. The safety and comfort of the city are also ensured.

The turbine can be installed in parks, near seashores, rooftops, households but the roads are the ideal locations for the device. The big vehicles like buses can provide a lot of wind energy. The speeding vehicles on the highway can provide enough wind for these turbines to work all day and night without stopping. The energy generated can be transported to places or it can be used for maintenance of roadways.“ 

birds make contact calls when a flockmate (whether they be a human or a bird) leaves the room, just trying to know where they’re at or when they’ll be back. i hc that sometimes qrow will wake up to clover being missing and sleepily he’ll make some calls. over time clover starts responding with whistles to let him know where he is or by telling him where he’s going if he’s going out.

when my bird feels safe and comfortable, he grinds his beak. he does this a lot when he’s resting on me or when he’s sleepy. qrow probably probably does something similar when he’s content. maybe humming.

my bird loves to rest his head against my cheek. it’s pretty similar to what i’ve seen bonded birds do, kinda like snuggling. qrow resting his head against clover’s cheek or neck.

floofing!! happy birds floof their feathers, particularly around their face. qrow’s hair fluffing up when he’s happy is a blessed image.

a good sign a bird considers you a flock mate is preening. my bird preens my hair, eyelashes, and face. qrow probably is quick to pick things out of clover’s hair or dust off his shoulder.
