I would still be proud of her if this was exactly what happened, because fuck that guy, but that’s not even how things went down. This creep was taking a picture of her, she approached him to confront him about it, and HER OWN security team kind of escorted her away from him. Then the club management came up to him and told him to delete the pictures, so HE left. Like, this is in his own words, because for some reason he thinks this story makes the young woman being photographed without her consent look bad.

In conclusion, the media needs to leave Malia the fuck alone. She’s taking a gap year before going to fucking Harvard, she can party as hard as she damn well pleases.

Callout post for people who use the word ‘thot’

Folks, I need to warn you

I’ve been seeing a sudden surge of use of the word ‘thot’ and I’m concerned

We’ve recently seen at least one ancient Egyptian deity resurrected through meme magic

Thoth is a significantly more powerful member of the pantheon than Kek and the consequences of summoning him may be even more drastic than the rebirth of Kek (Brexit, Trump winning the election, a series of celebrity deaths)

The phrase ‘return the bones thot’ radiates an obvious mystical power and it may herald that Thoth will come to preside over 2017 as Kek has presided over 2016 - the bones possibly refer to the millions of mummified ibises buried in his honor at his main temple in Khmun, by reblogging that post you may be unknowingly beseeching this ancient and powerful being to repay the thousands of years of sacrifices humanity once offered him - what form that might take, we can only speculate

Although it’s possible that Thoth has been with us for a while - his name in Greek letters is Θώθ, which is clearly referenced in the ‘OwO what’s this?’ meme

As the inventor of both magic and science and keeper of all wisdom, Thoth assuredly does know what ‘this’ is, but I’m not sure we want to find out

I’m also concerned that Thoth’s wife Ma’at may be connected to the frequent seemingly compulsive and superfluous use of the word ‘mate’ or ‘m8′ in memes

Please be careful with your memes, they may hold hidden arcane power

haha good one

*googles Θώθ*

oh bloody hell

Unlike Kek, a god of primordial darkness, Thoth is associated with balance, mediation, and arbitration. The return of Thoth may be exactly what we need in these troubled times

House Republicans just passed Trumpcare. So what’s next?

Things this bill does:

The bill goes on to the Senate, where many are saying it’s dead on arrival. Regardless, we need to send a message to House Republicans that they’ll pay for their “YES” votes by losing their seats. Here’s what you can do:

After you’ve done that, you can contact your Senators. Use the same website listed first above (Contacting Congress) to find your two Senators. Give them a call, show up at their town halls, and donate to their Democratic opponents if they indicate that they’ll vote for TrumpCare.

The only way we’re going to take down this bill is if we keep the pressure on the GOP and let them know that voting for it will result in them losing their seats.

Special Elections coming up:

Most other midterms are November 6th, 2018. Get ready.

Beyonce’s Rep Slams Lip Injection Rumors

Yvette had enough.

I didn’t even know about that rumor. People so hateful! Smdh.

Not only did she put them in their place but she educated them at the same time. The more you fucking know.

people are fucking stupid lmao

So I heard there was this holiday for smoochin?

Short but sweet monster school romance between Lilith, and her adorable girlfriend Willow.  Originally part of my 2015 minizines, now for you!

During a conversation with my manager this morning, she mentioned that her manager– the district manager– had told her that “We want people who are passionate about our products. We don’t want people working here if they’re doing it for the money.”

To which the manager (internally, because she doesn’t want to be fired), went “you’ve got to be fucking shitting me.”

Here’s the thing: it is totally possible to do a job for the passion and not be obsessively thinking about the money every minute of every day. In fact, there have been economic studies regarding that very thing.

You know when it starts?

When the employee in question is making $50-75k per year.*

That’s the starting point of financial security. That’s the point when you’re fairly secure that you’re going to have rent, food, and basic living expenses covered. 

I’ve worked a lot of jobs over the years. A lot. I saw the same working as a freelancer– when I charged lower rates, my clients treated me like shit and acted like they were doing me a favor; when I charged more, they respected me as a professional. A newspaper that started out paying me above market wage also treated me very kindly, because they started with the assumption that I was a human being who needs to eat.

In my experience, the employers that insist that your job be your “passion” are also the ones that pay you nothing and treat you like garbage. It’s exactly like abusive people, who tell you that you would put up with their abuse if you “loved them enough”. It’s a way of convincing the victim that they’re responsible for their own mistreatment, which is absolutely fucked up.

Here’s my advice to you:

It is absolutely okay to take a job that doesn’t pay you what you deserve–  you’ve got to eat, after all. But don’t think for a second that you have a responsibility to that job. If you see something available that pays better and treats you better, take it and don’t look back. Don’t waste an ounce of sympathy for employers who try to convince you that passion is an acceptable substitute for survival. 

If they want you to be passionate about your work with them, they should be treating you wtih the respect they give to people who ARE passionate about their products.

Also: your employer doesn’t own your soul, and can’t ask for it.

It’s always three of us lost among the stars May the 4th be with you!

Tranquil zooming!

“Fidget toys make you less focused :)” that because you’re not adhd/autistic you fucking clod

list of things i have heard from people without adhd/autism who used my fidget toy:

- it doesn’t do anything

- its a waste of plastic

- how do you pay attention in class

- it makes so much noise (it doesn’t make any noise, they just saw i had it in my hand)

- at least my fidget spinner actually does stuff (my toy does 6 different things. also they got their fidget spinner taken the same day)

- its gay (creative)

things my friends with adhd/autism have said after using my fidget toy:

- oh my god

- its so…. Good

- i could actually pay attention to shit in class

- where can i buy this???

- wait there’s More stuff like this

- i love you. (not related to the toy per say but that felt nice)

This right here is an important post

As a teacher, the whole “fidget spinners being marketed as toys” is the most terrifying trend my students have introduced me to. I gave a fidget cube to one of my 6th grade students who’s been struggling all year with his adhd, who is so smart but is failing math because he can’t focus in it. He was hesitant at first, about a teacher giving him something “to help” rather than punishing him, but agreed with me that it couldn’t hurt to try. 

He hasn’t put it down. 

Everyday since he got it, I’ve seen him with it. He holds it in his pocket, and hasn’t climbed on a table or cussed at a teacher since. 

BUT

There are at least 20 other kids in our school who bring fidget spinners and play with them out on the table during lessons. They don’t pay attention in class, and they disrupt other students’ learning. These are not students with adhd or anxiety, these are students who are just playing because they’re kids and that’s what kids do. 

What scares me is I know other teachers have been confiscating them. They’re going to be banned, if it continues to be a problem. And my 6th grader, who’s had noticeable improvements since he started playing with his cube, is going to get in trouble for using something that helps him learn.
