you guys know you can get USB connectable CD, dvd, and blu-ray players right. and you can buy external hard drives with crazy amounts of space for an amount of money that would make the average person from 2009’s head explode bc of how cheap it is. and if you do this and get ripping software such as handbrake for CDs and DVDs and makeMKV for blurays you can both own a physical copy of whatever media you want and make it accessible to yourself no matter where you are. do you guys know this

lots of people are reblogging this and tagging it #piracy—i should clarify, this is not piracy! ripping DVDs and CDs to have your own copy is fully legal, because it’s your legal right to do what you will with your property individually. it only becomes illegal if you then distribute that file on the internet.

People make fun of 9/11 now not because 3000 people dying in a terrorist attack is funny, but because the utter fucking self-righteousness and sentimentality with which Americans treat it and have used it endlessly to justify mass violence and misery on a scale that dwarfs 9/11 ever since makes its anniversary worthy of derision.

#if you’re 17 and you came here in 2017 i’m sorry to tell you that YOU are the sadsack in this scenario #i’m like the chernobyl grandma that won’t leave but you saw the reactor melt and THEN you MOVED here (x)

pride SHOULD have weirdos and freaks actually. it shouldnt be sanitized and full of cookie cutter cis white thin ppl. say queer make out in the streets wear leather bring back flagging. stop trying to turn pride into a fun event for cishet families. queer ppl arent zoo exhibits. i want to see angry queers shouting their pride in the streets not be bombarded with rainbow pens from banks. keep pride a riot.

the fact that people have reblogged this and tagged it "q slur" makes me want to eat glass.

Man I hope they cancel standardized testing, any education professional can tell you it’s a bunch of useless horseshit that does nothing except make students and teachers miserable while utterly failing to accurately gauge understanding.

My observation is that everything “weird” about American culture either originates with racism, a successful advertising campaign, or a successful racist advertising campaign.

not to be controversial but sometimes I think the private personal lives of celebrities are in fact none of our business

Unless they are being closeted, oppressed or censored and they show discomfort with and about it, and try to warn us or communicate to us about their situation. Just then and only then…it’s also our business.

celebrities are not sending you secret coded messages asking you to save them. i’m so sorry to tell you this but the former members of your favorite boy band are not actually secretly communicating with you about your RPF ship

i’m obsessed with the way that this is phrased like a slam dunk while absolutely being one of the most incoherent responses possible. it’s literally just pictures of two teddy bears

Now this is a hamless prank.

OMFg IM KATHY

HOW I LOVE IT

i love how everyone has a coworker they immediately call. everyone has that one friend who would save you from the headless customer.

OK WAIT SO IF POC GET STRICTER SENTENCES IN COURT… AND IF WOC ARE MORE AT RISK OF MISCARRIAGE AND GENERAL MALPRACTICE… AND IF SEX EDUCATION IS WORSE IN INNER CITY PUBLIC SCHOOLS… AND IF RACIAL HOUSING DISCRIMINATION IS PRACTICED BY 85% OF REAL ESTATE AGENTS… AND IF SCHOOL DISTRICTS ARE FUNDED VIA PROPERTY TAXES WITHIN EACH DISTRICT… HOLD ON………. WAIT A MINUTE

This is what we mean by systemic racism
