MANDATORY REBLOG

This sounds like a lot, but it’s true. An estimated 100,000,000 sharks per year are killed, threatening many species with endangerment or extinction.

They can’t afford our silence. Talk about this to everyone.

Fuck

oh my god thank you this is relevant to current interests

Confirmed.  He’s also dumped millions into cancer research.  I really do love Keanu Reeves a lot.

Keanu Reeves is like the nicest person. He still lives in an apartment/flat and he gives most of his money away to charities and people who need it. He even invites some paparazzi people to sit down and eat with him when he’s at a coffee shop or restaurant. He’s such a nice person.

When I was working on the UWS, one of my delivery guys accidentally backed his scooter into a parked car in front of the restaurant. I went out to help, since the driver didn’t speak much English, and it turned out the car belonged to Keanu Reeves. He helped us pick the scooter up, and when I asked if we could exchange insurance information (because the front of the car was pretty banged up), he kept telling us not to worry about it and put his hand on the driver’s shoulder and said “I just want to make sure you’re okay, man. Are you okay?” And he was so sincere about it and so kind that I decided in that moment I would always defend Keanu Reeves at all costs. He is an excellent man.

I need to be more like Keanu Reeves because I’m evil compared to him.

i love keanu reeves

An angel

And he does a lot of anti human trafficking work iirc. Seems like a really awesome guy.

Just remember. There is no such thing as a fake geek girl. There are only fake geek boys. Science fiction was invented by a woman.

Specifically a teenage girl. You know, someone who would be a part of the demographic that some of these boys are violently rejecting.

Isaac Asimov.

yo mary shelley wrote frankenstein in 1818 and isaac asimov was born in 1920 so you kinda get my point

And if you want to go back even further, the first named, identified author in history was Enheduanna of Akkad, a Sumerian high priestess.

Even Isaac Asimov ain’t having none of your shit, not even posthumously.

You know what else was invented by women? Masked vigilantes, the precursor to the modern superhero. Baroness Emma Orczy wrote The Scarlet Pimpernel in 1905. The character would later inspire better known masked vigilantes such as Zorro and Batman.

Stick that in your international pipe and smoke it

I have literally been telling people this for over a year.

the first extended prose piece - ie a novel, was not, as many male scholars will shout, Don Quixote (1605) but The Tale of Genji (1008) written by a woman

The first autobiography ever written in English is also attributed to a woman, The Book of Margery Kempe (1430s).

The day may come when I find this post and do not reblog it, but it is not this day.

Women invented language while men were hunting. I mean…

A neurotypical told me that fidget spinners are “so dumb” and I’m like first of all, they’re not for you so write that down.

My mom works part time in a shop that has recently started selling the spinners. She’s bought me two for myself and one for my friend, but she says all the kids come in looking for them and they go out of stock like SO FAST. I use mine when I’m outside cause it can easily fit into my pocket, or when I’m sitting on the laptop, it stops me picking at the skin on my fingers and making them bleed, it’s also really cool to look at and just listen. Getting side tracked! Anyway, my mom has said she’s told a lot of parents buying the spinners for their kids that they’re not designed as a toy and are for people with Autism, ADHD etc to help them concentrate and most of them don’t know that’s what they’re for and thought they were just a fad like loom bands. I don’t know if educating people on what they’re for would make a massive amount of difference but if it stops a few parents just randomly buying their kid the latest fad on a whim then it’s worth the few seconds it would take.

No thing is loads and loads of kids fidget, doesn't matter what they're diagnosed with. Nail biting, hair fiddling, knee shaking etc. It's not the kids fault, are people legit saying fuck you to the kids who bought this? What do you want them to do? Decidedly not buy a product that CAN be used as a toy, and is advertised as one on the regular? Of course they're gonna get banned, marketers are selling them as a fad. They're light up, glow in the dark, patterned, etc.
