Was anyone going to tell me JK Rowling mourned the loss of Charlie Kirk and then quoted Hitler, or was I supposed to figure that out myself?
I looked it up on tumblr and TERFs are saying “She’s not endorsing Hitler that’s just her emotional support Mein Kampf quote” OKAY
holocaust denier quotes hitler to demonize political opposition
and other true statements you can't say about her in the uk without being sued

We live in the dumbest, lamest cyberpunk dystopia possible.
So LA has been — and continues to — protest against ICE. These protests haven’t gotten any smaller or lost any momentum, but social media wasn’t reflecting it.
TikTok users, realizing that the platform/other social media are censoring/deleting/shadowbanning these protest videos, decided to find a workaround.
They’re calling it the LA Music Festival. Ice detention centers and other protest locations are “stages.” The hottest band is Rage Against the Machine. “Here’s what gear you should be bringing to stay safe at the LA Music Festival.”
And it fucking worked.
TikTok has become a proving ground for a lot of new music, meaning lots of labels and organizations have lucrative deals with TikTok to promote their new artists and music festivals. So they absolutely cannot censor the words “music festival” or train the algorithm to ignore it, or they risk endangering that very important revenue.
So now protest videos are flooding feeds again, but it’s the LA 24/7 Music Festival. Truly an incredible timeline we’ve landed in.
During the Civil Rights Movement of the 60s, radio broadcasts would refer to upcoming marches as "parties" and use other such euphemisms to sneak calls to organize past censors. For example, the Birmingham marches of 1963 were called "a field trip in the park with a luncheon".
This is, frankly, a timeless strategy, just done online.
Everyone keeps talking about "the writer's barely disguised fetish". But I still haven't heard about "the writer's barely disguised huge ass pet peeve"
It's a crime to leave this in the replies
The only downside to talking to small children like they’re normal people and treating them like normal people (as per my mom) is that as they develop into bigger children they are viscerally aware of every single moment in which they are pandered to like stupid little accessories (as per my dad, my teacher, the special ed aide, every adult in my middle school) and you end up getting a lot of phone calls from people reporting your kid for (checks notes) “undermining authority”, “disrupting the classroom environment”, “disobeying elder peers”, and “unionizing the grade eleven gym class with intent to incite a mutiny” (as per me) and you end up with a Grown Adult who will absolutely encourage and enable other people’s children to fuck the sustem
Anyhow the most empowering shit you can say to a kid in my experience has to be
“Wow that adult was being a jerk”
“That sounds really frustrating”
”Good job handling that, I would have lost my mind”
“It’s cool, I don’t expect you to remember me”
“You don’t have to hug me if you don’t want to”
“Yeah sometimes (authority figure you can’t avoid) doesn’t know what they’re talking about, it’s not your fault, just do your best”
“I don’t totally understand what you mean but I get that you’re upset, is there anything I can do?”
”Wanna go yell and break stuff with me?”
“You don’t need to be friends with that kid as long as you can still be polite”
“If an adult tells you to do something that will get you hurt, you don’t have to listen.”
“My number one goal is to keep you safe, but I don’t know everything and sometimes I’m wrong, so let me know if I make a mistake.”
“Man. Today sucked.”
“Yeah I also kinda wanna cry right now”
“Whoops, yeah, my bad”
“I don’t know the answer to that but we can probably figure it out”
agnostic is lowkey the funniest belief system it's just like yeah idk it's none of my business

what the fuck is game changer even about
this is in my history book about prohibition in the 1920s and i’m laughing so hard oh my gooooood
How is it is supposed to work: your emotions are a response to your situation and surroundings. It is OK to feel the emotion. Now take that emotion and use your logical brain to decide which parts of the emotion fit the facts of the situation and which do not and why, and how you’re going to respond to said emotions (which is what tweet said, and what therapists say)
How people seem to interpret it: any emotional reaction is perfectly fine and I am not responsible for what I do out of emotion.
The “How it is supposed to work” part is really great, took me long enough and a therapist to figure that.
saying something you know will make people laugh. And they do laugh.

Any day now
people have suddenly started reblogging this post of mine from february 8th, 2012. great bit everybody
being sick & miserable objectively sucks, but it has become significantly easier to cope with since learning that “sickness behavior” is a well documented part of the body’s immune response
feeling not only physically but also emotionally like fucking garbage is unfortunately an extremely effective way to force your body to prioritize fighting infection & keeping you alive. i don’t have to like it, but knowing why i get weepy & pathetic when sick does help at least a little
i just found out that this is not common knowledge and am reblogging so more people know
YOUR BODY DOES THIS ON PURPOSE
YOU ARE NOT A BAD PERSON BECAUSE OR "WEAK" WHEN YOU ARE SICK IF YOU CAN"T CARRY ON AS NORMAL
The cure to anxiety is completing all the tasks you have to finish for the day early and doing them phenomenally and being physically perfect and on everyone’s good side preferably even their favorite.

Women scientists made up 25% of the Pluto fly-by New Horizon team. Make sure you share this, because erasing women’s achievements in science and history is a tradition. Happens every day.

70 seconds over 9 years and 3 billion miles…
…I just… Damn
Launch to Pluto flyby for New Horizons took 3,580 days, and she was off by 70 seconds. That’s like… That’s an error of 0.000000226%.
That’s fucking insane.
That’s not even a rounding error!
Thank you for putting words & numbers to my awe of her precision.
I have no strong feelings about Hamilton the musical one way or another, but the sentence "I wasn't aware that was something a person could do" is such a perfect way to precisely express the kind of "not judging, just baffled" response people sometimes inspire in me with their antics and activities.
