The Rum Tum Tugger is awful annoying

Heres a not so friendly reminder, as an lgbt metis person, i dont give a single fuck what your blog is themed or if this is too painful for you to look at. Reblog this post. Reblog this post with the sources of the 751 children who were found.

Your compliance and silence as well as the compliance and silence of your ancestors is what allowed these schools to open and kill first nations children. The children of MY people.

Dont follow me if you cant reblog this post or the one with sources to your political blog or your most popular blog. Add trigger warnings if you must but if your political blog is only focused on the harms you personally face like being lgbt then you need to see some bigger pictures and stop being afraid of angering your racist mutural or actually saying some shit about racism. If you can reblog some antifa graphics or add blm to your bio to be a surface level ally, you can reblog some sources on the genocide first nations people faced and still face today.

They were CHILDREN.

I’d like to add this photo I took last night in Victoria of the statue of Captain Cook. Though I myself am not indigenous, I 100% agree that these murderers, kidnappers and rapists shouldn’t have huge statues and plaques that decorate them and say how “great” they were.

Here’s another photo of the legislative assembly from yesterday. Later on there were more items, candles and signs at the memorial, as well as a big poster with 1505 painted on it but I didn’t get a picture

People need to see this. Not just quickly glance at the photos and keep on scrolling. They need to see this.

I went to a “Cancel Canada Day” event and burst into tears - not because I was surprised to learn of the unmarked graves (survivors told us they were there. Our government pushed it aside, and we let them), but because seeing all the people gathered in mourning drove it home: They. Were. Children.

This is my country’s legacy - and it’s not history. The last schools closed during my lifetime. My Father went to school with students who lived at the local residential school, after it was changed to a boarding house (read: holding centre) for indigenous youth who went to local schools.

"Given that 99.9% of us are incapable of making a record of any description, I think it is grossly unfair that artistes who have achieved a solitary success on the hit parade are insultingly referred to as 'One-Hit Wonders'. Let me assure your readers that, had I written Kung Fu Fighting, I would spend every waking hour waving my cock around and referring to everyone I met as 'no-hit cunts'.

Sapphic art I found while looking at classical paintings to copy.

"Sappho and Erinna in a Garden at Mytilene" by Simeon Solomon

It's a crime that I can't find classical art where Sappho gets to share a kiss with a woman.

An illustration by Georges Rochegrosse

"The Kiss" by Peter Behrens

"Two Fairies Embracing in a Landscape with a Swan" by Hans Zatzka

Can't get over one of them trailing a flower over the other's body.

"Two Women in a Bed Disturbed by a Cat" by Jean-Alphonse Roehn

Cats have such inconvenient timing.

Stretching what's allowed, "Boarding School Friends" by Paul Gavarni

"Falbalas And Fanfreluches" by George Barbier

The kiss, Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec

It's ambiguous but it's in the Wikipedia category for women kissing women in art. And by the same artist: the girlfriends, and abandonment.
