I feel like I’ve made this very clear on my blog but fuck the police. Fuck your cop daddy, fuck your cop uncle, fuck your cop sister, and fuck your cop characters. All cops are evil and participate in a system of violence and murder to protect white supremacy and wealth. There are no good cops. 

Don’t talk to me about Brooklyn 99, I ain’t gonna hold your hand like a fucking child’s cut that shit out. Stop supporting propaganda because they fed you a gay character what the fuck is wrong with yall. 

Why are all cops bad? Most mean no harm and some are POC.

man some of the seven deadly sins aren’t even that bad. sorry I’m angry n wanna fuck? Sorry I ate a lot? shut up

Wrath is beating someone up because they exist in a way that you don’t like. Wrath is not being angry because someone hurt you.

Lust is not wanting to have sex with other people. Lust is using sex to hurt other people or hurting another person in a sexual way.

Gluttony is not eating lots of food (your own stomach will tell you when enough is enough). Gluttony is when you have enough resources to yourself that you could house and feed the rest of the population of your city but you keep it to yourself because you do not want to give up the power associated with it.

Greed is not wanting to improve the state of your material life because it would improve your quality of life. Greed is taking opportunities and resources away from already marginalized people. (And if someone tells you that a service you benefited from and it actively improved your life was not meant for you specifically, then there needs to be more of that resource).

Envy is not looking at someone who has a higher quality of life and wanting to improve it. Envy is when you are looking to take away from someone who is in the same situation as you. The example the Bible (or catholic school) uses is a man looking at another man’s wife when his own wife loves him very much and is equal to the other woman in every way that is important.

Sloth (aka laziness) isn’t when you’re exhausted or hurting and being too tired to do anything else. Sloth is when one contributed nothing to the work and yet reaps the rewards of the work.

Pride is when you think of yourself of greater than your peers and your fellow humans. Pride is also when you think of yourself greater than God. Pride is not being proud of yourself or others for accomplishing something that was difficult. You are allowed to be proud of your hard work and your accomplishments.

Why did a tumblr user just explain an aspect Christianity than all my years of private school and church

Questions to ask Pro-Lifers:

  • Do you think there are situations where the government should be able to forcibly take control of a person’s organs against their will for any reason, including to save another persons life? 
  • If YES- explore this with them. Give them non-abortion related examples, such as prisons in China harvesting organs from prisoners without consent (yes this happens) and human trafficking victims having their organs harvested and sold (yes, this also happens.) You can give them hypotheticals, like government mandated blood drives and bone marrow donation. Most people will generally agree that taking or using the organs of another person against their will, including to save another person’s life, is….pretty bad. 
  • If no- 
  • Do you think that a fetus is a person? 
  • If NO- I mean, they’ll honestly never say this. But if a fetus isn’t a person, then killing it shouldn’t raise too many moral issues, ya know?
  • If YES-
  • So,  the government should be able to forcibly take control of a pregnant person’s organs against their will to save another persons (the fetus’) life?
  • And stick to that point. You don’t need to argue about the personhood of a fetus, of whether a fetus is an innocent life, or whatever. 
  • Should the government be able to forcibly use your organs against your will to keep that fetus alive? Should any person be entitled to using your body against your will for any reason? 

anyone else reject femininity hardcore growing up at some point because you saw your mothers modeling this future of complete sacrifice of identity, self, and autonomy for the “greater good” of the family

and the media was also, like, pushing this on you with a dystopian-like image where it’s all babies and the home and sole dedication to others

and so the only reaction was to hate pink, refuse to wear dresses, and be obsessed with swords or sports or anything masculine without realizing it’s not the color you hate or the clothes or the kids or the makeup or the ornamentation

it’s the right to be your own person, alone, you’re own person, selfishly, you’re own person, separate of home or family or kids or husband, that you’re afraid of losing.

yeah, pink is a beautiful color with sadly weak connotations.

monkey brain: that animal right there is a dangerous predator adapted for stalking, chasing, and quickly dispatching of creatures like us. we should find high ground to get away from it before it sees us

human brain: hehe kitty wana pet

monkey brain: the ocean is the last place we want to be right now. we’re not built to swim and we’ll likely drown within five minutes. and let’s not even get into what might want to kill us once we get into open water

human brain: wheee swimmy

Monkey Brain: go to sleep already, we only have so much energy stored over.

Human Brain: hehe screen people funny
