is this real?

ALL OF THIS

*my parents.

And my GREAT Grandma is still alive soooo……..

My GRANDMA

My FATHER went to a LEGALLY MANDATED segregated school until he was 8 and integration was then enforced. He was not legally allowed into a school or part of town with white people until he was almost ten

Many people forget black people couldn’t even vote until 1965. That’s not that long ago.

for the vast majority schools within the south, substantive de-segregation was completed only in like circa 1975. thats like fucking 20 years after Brown v. Board of education.

My father is 52 and he chopped cotton in Louisiana as a child until he was 11

Less than 65 years. King was murdered in 68, which was effectively the end of the movement and beginning of the Black Power era. My parents were both born in the 50s in the Jim Crow south, and remember it vividly. One of my mom’s friends was even killed at the 16th Street Baptist Church. People are delusional for acting like this was all so long ago.

There were schools in the U.S that still had segregated proms in 2012. Shit is still happening it’s not all in some distant past.

Danny Devito took care of Mara Wilson when her mom died while filming Matilda. He babysat her when her parents had to go to the hospital and was there for her after she passed. On all accounts, Danny Devito is the person you want in your life

people who play “devil’s advocate” for stuff like climate change denial and anti vaxx are so funny like…you realize you’re basically the flat earther of politics right

“I can’t speak for everyone, but this sounds like it is extremely my fuckin’ speed! In the literal sense that it travels closer to my walking speed than to the speed of an efficient high-speed rail system, and transports only slightly more people than I can carry on my back.”

Do you ever think of how weird it would be if Mickey Mouse’s name was actually Michael? And how weird it would be if one day Minnie called him “Michael Mouse” because she was upset with him? Because I think about it sometimes.

I have just been informed that Mickey’s full name is “Michael Theodore Mouse”, and that Minnie’s is “Minerva Mouse”. I DONT KNOW WHAT TO DO WITH THIS INFORMATION, BUT I FEEL LIKE I KNOW SOMETHING FORBIDDEN NOW???

I feel like this is a good time to share the fact that Donald Duck’s middle name is Fauntleroy.

goofy periodically changes his name to avoid the IRS if i remember right

chickens come from beneath the flat earth. the government doesn’t want you to know that the earth is flat and surfs through space on a layer of chickens, because if everybody knew they could mine their own chickens and not pay taxes

Oh my GOD GUYS I THINK I’VE FOUND SOMETHING

Did you find chickens?

The Ellis family had only built the 7-foot-tall menorah… because their sons, ages 5, 7 and 9, had asked their parents if the family could decorate their home like the neighbors did for Christmas. This is America in the 21st century.  Please reblog, even if you’re not Jewish.  Especially if you’re not Jewish.  Spread awareness and let your Jewish followers know that we’re not alone.

Quick Depression Pro Tip 2™: put on socks. your home probably isn’t super duper clean. socks will at least help you feel clean.

A Continuation: this also goes for changing into fresh pajamas! especially useful when your sheets aren’t clean/there are crumbs in the bed.

It’s so odd when a stranger understands exactly what you do and what you’re feeling. It makes me feel less disgusting and alone. Thank you.

we’ve all been depressed and grody at one point or another. forget love, hate, lust, anger, this is the one true unifying human experience

update: i am out of granola bars

whats the hardest thing you ever had to admit to yourself?

I’m the one holding myself back
