not the first guy to cheat with a whale
It’s genuinely amazing to me that a Mediocre White Man can spend 20 years creating shows and movies that treat bigotry as a joke, but because the motherfucker donated some money to LGBTQIA groups and stumped for Bernie, he’s hailed as a progressive.
Seth MacFarlane created shows that dealt heavily in anti-black racism, antisemitism, ableism, Ace Ventura-levels of transphobia, rampant and vicious misogyny, normalized rape culture, abuse as a joke, pedophilia as a joke, and violent Islamophobia. He actually fought really hard for a scene where Quagmire rapes Marge Simpson to be aired on live TV – FOUGHT FOR IT, TOOTH AND NAIL – and is still angry that FOX wouldn’t let him get away with it.
He taught generations of young white guys that this shit was okay to say and believe because it was “just a joke” – hell, I’ll bet there’s a good Venn diagram between Family Guy fans and Trump supporters – and anyone who criticized him was just some boring, humorless PC police asshole.
And now people want to call his poorly-written, aggressively bigoted shit “satire” and give him brownie points for *appearing* progressive instead of actually being progressive.
Like, please demand more from your progressive allies than some fucking rich, white jackass who screams “Bigotry is cool! (Kidding)” in all his work, and does the bare fucking minimum every few years to be progressive.
We can’t hate ourselves into a version of ourselves we can love.

that comment has had me thinking for days… like im reblogging this shit a week later from my likes cus its the PERFECT analogy
We are Chiron. And you don’t think that kid grows up to be nominated for eight Academy Awards. It’s not a dream he’s allowed to have. …But now it’s happened. So what I think of possibility, let’s take it off the table. The thing has happened.

So we were approaching the [beach] scene, and I was talking to the two guys and they were both really, really, really, really nervous. Partly because they’d never performed a sex scene in a film before, they’d hardly acted at all, I hadn’t directed a sex scene, just all around we’re all green as hell. But we get there and the one kid, Jharrel Jerome, who plays Kevin, he’d asked me, he said, ‘So, Barry, what is this scene?’ I was like, ‘It’s in the script. Exactly the scene.’ I’m just trying to make it chopping wood. And I go, ‘Jharrel, are you a virgin?’ He goes, ‘No I’m not a virgin.’ I was like, ‘Okay, was the person you lost your virginity to more experienced, with the same experience?’ He was like, ‘No, she was more experienced.’ I was like, ‘Was it a good experience?’ He said, ‘Yeah, it was, she was really kind.’ And now, I like the actor to sort of talk their way into the solution, I don’t wanna give it. So I got quiet, and he said, ‘Is this the first time Kevin has kissed another man?’ I said, ‘No, it’s not the first time Kevin has kissed another man.’ Then I got really quiet and I just watched him. And he said, ‘Is this the first time Chiron has kissed another man?’ I didn’t say anything, and he said, ‘Oh, it’s the first time Chiron has kissed anyone.’ I said, ‘Yes.’ And that’s what the scene became about.

“nasa gone rogue” sounds like they’re stealing rockets and going to the moon illegally or something
but nope, “rogue” these days is a word that means “posting real climate change facts that your president doesn’t want you to know”

like if you support nasa posting real climate change facts that the orange dictator doesn’t want you to know. reblog if you support nasa stealing rockets and going to the moon illegally.
Shout out to anyone who’s struggling with their mental health and doesn’t think they can live like this for much longer; if you’re reading this, please stay alive, you’re still here and you’re so strong and i’m proud of you.
I got my Boozle lapel pins in the mail last night which means they are now available to order in my shop!!! If you’ve already pre-ordered a pin, first of all, THANK YOU, and secondly, they are being packed up and prepped for shipping as we speak. I should also mention that a chunk of the pins had a manufacturing error which caused them to have this really awesome and totally undesired “oil slick” effect (pictured below) so I’ve listed those pins as HALF OFF ~ $5 for an adorable pin with a minor defect that nobody will notice? Uhm, yes please!
2016 had a lot of health issues, drama, and political heartbreak but it also had me falling in love for the first time, welcoming my best friend's baby into the world, painting my first mural, working as a professional artist full time, going on 2 road trips, producing my first enamel lapel pins, and finally getting my diagnosis! 2016 has been the most active & fulfilling year of my life but I'm ready to put it in the past. 2017 is about healing, growth, and overcoming obstacles!
After the results of the 2016 election, I was feeling very hopeless. The United States just elected a man that has not only been accused of sexual assault, but that has openly admitted to doing it and considers it a perk of being famous.
I will be selling these 1.25" hard enamel pins and 50% of the profits will be donated to RAINN (Rape, Abuse & Incest National Network) to help fund their hotline as well as educate the public about sexual assault.
I will not allow our president elect to normalize sexual assault. Sexual violence is a heinous crime and together we can HELP, LEARN, LISTEN, AND INFORM.
A manufacturing error made a chunk of the Boozle #lapelpins imperfect with an undesired, albeit totally awesome, "oil slick" effect so I've listed these imperfect pins as half off ~ that's only $5! 🙀😻
