why tall friends are great
they are towering fortresses good for taking shelter from sun, rain, and vicious birds
excellent hiding spot
they provide a path in crowds so we small ones can get through
can use as large pillows 10/10 would recommend
drawbacks
what do their faces look like
theyâre always looking around like âSHIT where did my small friend go did i lose themâ worry not tall friend i am down here
?????
hugs are very boob

I swing both ways ;)
Violently. With a bat. Come get some motherfuckers.
Itâs trending because youâre all stupid consumers who will buy into and praise anything at all thatâs got âdiversityâ in it Jesus Christ
Iâm not sure if I want this movie to flop as hard as the ghostbusters reboot is going to anymore.
I mean, itâs a new IP from marvel. Itâs not a sequel or reboot.
But on the other hand, its fanbase seems to be entirely people like this going âBLACK?! BLACKITY BLACK BLACK BLACK! BLACKERâN BLACKITY BLACK. BLACKITY BLACKITY BLAAAAAACKâ
wow so you see Black people celebrating getting a Black superhero movie and what you automatically go to is âstupid black consumerists and their diversityâÂ
shut the fuck up white bitch fuck you just admit you hate Black people and their happiness and get off my post make your own damn post since you hate us so muchÂ
People hate when black people enjoy anything
All day everyday keep on hating hoes đ
And then yâall want to make posts asking why black people hate/canât stand white people. For shit like that. We canât be happy about seeing one of the richest, brightest black superheroes in the Marvel fandom without you non-washrag having asses wishing it would flop and calling us stupid.
You donât have to see Black Panther - you can do your own movie. What is white folks mortal enemy that yâall have to battle against? Hmm yâall can start with the sun - go battle the sun and put on some lotion before you start looking like Mr. Krabs. Olâ red lobster having assesâŚ
I am not ashamed to say that I weep at any good trans representation I see. If Marvel weâre gonna do an Angela movie with a lesbian playing Angela and a trans WoC playing Sera and a diverse lgbtqia cast I would lose my shit.
Seeing black folks reacting to Black Panther news has been amazing, because I know that feeling. Iâve not said much about it because itâs not for me, itâs not my place. Iâll just go along and enjoy the movie.
But I will take a moment to address my fellow white people, because apparently some of you fuckers are too fucking racist to listen to the actual relevant folks. I am fucking sick to death of you shitbags throwing your toys out of the pram every time sci-fi and fantasy deviate from being some kind of Nazi wet dream.
You always have a shitty fucking excuse. When we got a black Cap and a female Thor, you claimed it was messing with existing characters, despite the fact that someone new taking up the mantle of a famous hero is a common comic book device. You said itâd be okay if they were original characters.
When new characters are introduced, you then complain that itâs some kind of forced SJW tumblrina pandering bullshit, as if the entire fucking industry isnât designed to cater to you and people who arenât cishet white dudes were only invented five years ago.
Now we have a movie coming out about a character who has been black since his creation decades ago and, big fucking surprise, you insufferable turdweasles are finding an excuse for that to be wrong too and shitting all over people who dared to be excited about having a big budget superhero movie starring black folks.
Lemme spell this out for you, in case itâs not abundantly clear, YOU ARE FUCKING RACIST. Iâm not talking about that âall of us are racist because the system teaches us to beâ racism, I mean the kind where you have a personal issue with folks who arenât white and you need to deal with that. There is literally no other reason for you to keep coming up with these excuses.
So, please, stop embarrassing the rest of us melanin deficient types and shut the fuck up until sort out your shit, or just get the hell out of our fandoms.
PS. Hi, black folks. If Iâm out of line at all, please let me know. I know you donât need me to speak for you, but I know a lot of cis PoC who go to bat for us trans folks all the time and I wanted to return the favour. Also, these poopnuggets turn out to be transphobes most of the time anyway.
Nah you good thank you for that

growing up finding girls attractive without registering it as attraction sucks because you basically end up weirdly fixated on them but also super insecure and competitive

I AM WORTH MORE THAN THIS. I AM WORTH MORE THAN SCRAPS MORE THAN LEFT-OVERS. I AM WORTH MORE THAN THE OVER-SPILL OF LOVE YOU HAD FOR THE ONES WHO CAME BEFORE ME. I AM NOT ASKING FOR YOUR RECONSTITUTED RECYCLED REIMAGINED HAND-ME-DOWN LOVE NOTES. I AM NOT ASKING FOR THE BACKWASH OF THEIR MOUTHS IN THE CORNERS OF YOUR KISSES. I AM ASKING FOR BETTER. I AM ASKING FOR MORE. I AM ASKING FOR ALL OF IT. I AM ASKING FOR MYSELF. I AM ASKING BECAUSE I REFUSE TO SETTLE, ANYMORE. And Iâm not asking nicely.
BACKWASH, by Ashe Vernon (via latenightcornerstore)

I keep seeing stuff about Lord of the Flies going around
Obviously, the individual experiences of the people making the posts - re: teachers, lessons, the way they were forced to study the book - arenât up for debate
but like, I feel that people might not have the whole story here and as someone who knows far too much about literature, I wanted to talk about it a little
Sir William Golding wrote Lord of the Flies in response to an earlier novel called The Coral Island. In The Coral Island, a small group of upper-class British boys from a boarding school get stranded on an island and have an absolutely wonderful time. They look back on it as a fond adventure, where they had a little vacation, invented things, and generally made their well-bred high society English parents proud.
Sir William Golding read that novel and was disgusted by the way that R. M. Ballantyne used the plot as a huge essay on the superior intellect and higher morality of English folk (read: white people). The boys in The Coral Island eventually have to seek the aid of Christian missionaries (who are there to convert the local Polynesian populace) to save them from the natives who are written as raping pillaging amoral cannibals.
Sir William Golding set out to write a more realistic novel, by the way, using the same names for his main characters as Ballantyne did (although Goldingâs characters are slightly younger). So, all the posts about Lord of the Flies showing the âhuman conditionâ insofar as it pertains to young middle-class British boys who grew up in a boarding house in the middle of the Cold War are correct. But I get the feeling that most people donât realize that was the point of the novel.
Lord of the Flies was meant as a huge âfuck youâ to the ingrained belief that English people are the most noble and wise of all people and thus incapable of descending into savagery. I doubt it was ever meant to be a sweeping generalized metaphor for the universal savage nature of humanity, and shame on the teachers who force that interpretation on their students.
I wish that the information in this post were told to students reading Lord of the Flies more often, considering that this context is necessary for understanding the book.
I used to study Golding and Iâm so happy to see a post about this! Basically all the good Golding scholars agree that Lord of the Flies is intended as a condemnation specifically of western positivism and superiority, not a condemnation of human nature. Golding believed that good societies were possible, but that he was not living in one. (Relevant side facts for the curious: Golding was a sailor and teacher who based some of the boysâ behavior on the behaviors of his male students and fellow sailors. He also drew on Ancient Greco-Roman mythology and literature, which is both rife with examples of horrific, inhumane behavior AND considered the foundation of western society.) When white/western/imperialist/etc. people read Goldingâs books and decide he means all societies are evil, it shows that they are incapable of not conceiving of themselves as the best society â âIf he believes OUR society is evil, he must think ALL societies are evil, because of course weâre the BEST society, and the others must be worse than oursâ even though the other societies are not seen in most of his books and may be doing just fine.
As a sidenote, Golding was a really interesting literary figure in that he would actually publicly argue with critics who gave what he thought were unacceptably wrong interpretations of his novels. He refused to agree that death of the author had limitless application. So there are actually quotes from Golding about how most people read Lord of the Flies (and some of his other books) wrong and itâs pissing him off/making him sad and please just stop already.
⌠aaahaa. Lord of the Flies was a Darker And Edgier AU spitefic.
I heartily approve of this. good on you, Sir Golding.
Italy has legalized same-sex civil unions, becoming the last country in Western Europe to do so
This is so fricking awesome and it makes me SO HAPPY for all queer couples in Italy right now who want to get married <3
Another awesome as heck step forward <3

Seriously, we should be quiet.
I mean like⌠no one ACTUALLY hates white/cis/heterosexual/male/able bodied, neurotypical etc. people because they are that. We hate their supremacy, their privilege, their sense of self entitlement, how the world is pretty much set up to benefit them and ONLY them. We also hate how a LOT of the people in those groups donât legitimately want to fix that. So itâs really telling when people just outright claim that privileged peoples are hated simply because of their identities. Not only is that telling, itâs quite a reach⌠And Iâm really gonna need y'all to put your damn hands down, please.
If your friend is crying over a break up in the middle of the night, and you have a Psychology final at 6 AM.. itâs okay to choose the test and support her in the morning. If youâve promised someone that you would see a movie with them but stayed up all night coughing your brains out.. itâs okay to reschedule. You do not need to feel obligated to sacrifice your own self for the sake of someone else all of the time. The only person I was born to nurture is me.
disappoint people and be okay with it (what Iâm learning)
this isnât disappointing people, its setting healthy boundaries

Sometimes you have to put yourself first, and THATâS OK.

am i the only person not affected by generalized positivity⌠like post it notes in bathrooms that say âyouâre beautifulâ or posts that are like âsmile! you are a beautiful sunshine flower!â iâm just like ⌠okayâŚ
I just heard a psychologist (Guy Winch) say that the people that positive affirmations help most are actually the people who have high or at least normal self-esteem. They really do cheer those people up!
But for the rest of us they run so counter to our general worldview (weâre fundamentally bad and deserve nothing) that our brain rejects them immediately as lies and uses that moment to remind us of how terrible and abnormal we actually are.
What usually works for people with low self-esteem is stuff like writing out a list of very specific things we know weâre good at, and revisiting it every day to write a paragraph elaborating on one of those things (i.e. âIâm a compassionate person and here are five examplesâ) to try to set our brain on a different track long term.
That makes so much sense.

In many peopleâs minds bisexuality is (incorrectly) seen as synonymous with non-monogamy. Bisexuals are most often portrayed or imagined as married men or women having secondary âflingsâ with people of the same sex. Talk shows, in keeping with their usual superficiality and oversimplification of reality, perpetuate this stereotype. Many shows invite as panelists only bisexuals who have more than one partner, as if the absence of multiple partners invalidates or at least confounds bisexual identity. It is usually the preference of producers that the bisexual individualâs primary relationship be a heterosexual marriage, with same sex lovers âon the sideâ. In dealing with producers of these types of shows, I have been told that monogamous or celibate bisexuals are not interesting or controversial enough, and besides, the viewers wouldnât be able to understand monogamous or celibate bisexuality. As a result, viewers are presented with images that reinforce the illusion that all bisexual people have both male and female lovers, when in fact only a minority of bisexuals actually maintain this lifestyle.
Robyn Ochs âBiphobia: It Goes More Than Two Waysâ originally published in âBisexuality: The Psychology and Politics of an Invisible Minorityâ, Beth A. Firestein, Editor published by Sage 1996 We ⼠this quote and article which helps explain why so many people believe bisexuals cannot be Monogamous.  But want to remind people there is a difference between those who choose Monogamy as the right thing For Them, and has absolutely nothing to do with being down on polyamorous and other types of relationships which may be the right thing For Others.  To each their own, âAn it harm none, do what ye will.â (via bisexual-community)
bi women dating men are no longer bisexual. they are, by virtue of their partnership, automatically straight
also, single people are all aro. fact. and youâd better be having sex the exact moment you read this or guess what? asexual
better not call yourself a writer if youâre not writing right this second. are you a dancer? better not sit down, or you wonât be a dancer anymore
thatâs how this works right
In between breaths we are all dead.
