When a marginalized group is asked for peaceful protesting, what is really being asked is for them to “protest” in a way that those with privilege can actively and happily ignore.

ok but normalise going to coffee shops alone, eating dinner alone, going to the cinema alone. i’m okay & i’m not particularly sad or lonely. i feel bad that you’re feeling bad because i just happened to enjoy the company of myself today.
I DO ALL THESE THINGS ALONE AND IT’S THE BEST 10/10 WOULD RECOMMEND
because cinco de mayo is coming up and I’m real sick and tired of seeing people turn in into another drinking holiday where they mock and dress up like “"Mexicans”“ and lump all Latinxs into one group
Honestly shoutout to The Social Network for giving us the line “you’re going to go through life thinking that girls don’t like you because you’re a nerd. And I want you to know, from the bottom of my heart, that that won’t be true. It’ll be because you’re an asshole” because if that doesn’t epitomize women’s feelings for entitled male nerds I don’t know what does

Reminder: You are not worthless if you lack motivation. You are not worthless if your depression makes it hard to complete tasks. Some days all you can do is simply exist, and productivity doesn’t define your worth. You still matter, even on days you feel worthless.

International Women’s Day posters, from the AOUON Archive at the Oakland Museum of California.
Happy International Women’s Day 2017 everyone! I’m so lucky to be surrounded by women who fight stereotypes, drive equality, and make the world a better place to live in for all women. I’m lucky to know women who are strong, talented, brilliant, and determined. I hope that I can be a positive role model for girls out there, showing that women can make art AND write code, be strong AND compassionate, lead teams AND stay humble.
I decided to do an update of my past drawing and added a few more women to boot!

Female staffers adopted a meeting strategy they called “amplification”: When a woman made a key point, other women would repeat it, giving credit to its author. This forced the men in the room to recognize the contribution — and denied them the chance to claim the idea as their own. “We just started doing it, and made a purpose of doing it. It was an everyday thing,” said one former Obama aide who requested anonymity to speak frankly. Obama noticed, she and others said, and began calling more often on women and junior aides.
Here’s How Obama’s Female Staffers Made Their Voices Heard (via styro)
If you’re wondering what amplification looks like it really is as simple as listening to a person’s point and then saying “Yes I really agree with (this person’s name) that (the point they made) and I think that (build on point)”
So for example, “Yes I agree with the female staffers that amplification is an effective process and I’ve seen great results from similar techniques used by my own colleagues”
Support, Credit, Reinforce. It’s simple and effective and it really does work.
