Black girls and their dolls.✨

In celebration of Yara and Halle receiving their first Disney dolls, we’re going down memory lane to when other figures of representation got theirs.

Luigi, having a bad time overall. -VOLUME WARNING-

This is getting popular over on my Instagram so I’m sharing it here. Enjoy! :D

Yall remember how Texas had that "report an abortion" form that they had to take down after a week?

Well, Missouri has one, only it's for reporting transgender concerns.

Comrades. Friends. Romans. Countrymen. You know what to do.

If you want to be racist then be racist with your full chest. Stop hiding your anti blackness and misogynoir behind “Ignorance”, claiming you don’t understand the use of Black reader tags.

The reason black writers put “X black reader” isn’t to segregate but INCLUDE because majority of fan fics that have “X reader” are NOT made for all readers. They include tiny descriptions that as a white person you might not notice. But we black fans do.

the blushing

the pulling of straight hair

the easy to bruise skin

It is all very noticeable. So we as black writers use “Black Reader” as a way to create a space for ourselves in the fandom that we all have a right to enjoy.

It is not our jobs to educate you on the very problems that you as readers create. But a lot of us still do.

Writers are leaving and quitting because of the treatment and racism they face for simply wanting to make a space for themselves and for other black women, it is annoying and honestly just sad.

No cuz I remember when I saw that guilty verdict and did a lil happy dance cuz THAT NIGGA WAS GUILTY

Tory Lanez was guilty of shooting Meg thee stallion according to the state of California. GUILTY. He did it and his ass is in jasaaaail woot woot

I hope Megan Thee Stallion is having a great fucking day too and I hope she sues every single one of those bloggers who lied on her name

“But if you forget to reblog Madame Zeroni, you and your family will be cursed for always and eternity.”

not even risking that shit

scrolled past this, re-evaluated my life, then SCROOOLLLED back up and hit the damn reblog button. 

Nope. I know better, have your reblog Madame Zeroni.

who the fuck is Madame Zeroni

Look at these stupid children who don’t know who Madame Zeroni is

Man lissen if you don’t know you better ask somebody AFTER you hit the reblog button

Idk who she is but I have an exam today so I’ll reblog her

idk who she is but i have an exam today so i’ll reblog her

^Haiku^bot^0.4. Sometimes I do stupid things (but I have improved with syllables!). Beep-boop!

Because wise, I am.

Oh fucks no she’s back lmao must reblog. I’m sorry guys

Sorry, I gotta. Feel free to block this post, I always tag it “curse post” and “madame zeroni” if your anxiety acts up in regards to posts like this.

while I am not down with Love Potion #9 perpetuating a negative and harmful Romani stereotype, I am totes good with the always reblog Eartha Kitt because Eartha Kitt, so Eartha Kitt you guys.

Madame Zeroni is from Holes. Which may also perpetuate stereotypes, I can’t remember, it’s been ages since I saw it. (I mostly remember Sam, because Dulé Hill.)

I don’t believe Madam Zeroni is explicitly Romani, although she does embody some of those tropes - but a lot of that flavor comes from the whole eastern European (Latvian) setting. She also uses yiddishisms, so who knows. But my recollection is that she’s not any kind of an outsider - she’s another inhabitant of the village, alongside the Yelnatses and the Menkes, and the curse is more of a …cosmic imbalance than anything else. And notably not the only curse in the narrative. Kate’s curse is far more devastating - but then, the wrong done her is also far more profound. She’s not remotely mystically coded, but her wrath and grief stops the rain itself for a hundred years

…I frickin love Holes. And also Eartha Kitt

i’m not risking it, sorry you guys!

She’s back again. Gotta reblog. Sorry.

When you see it, REBLOG IT.

Artists who’ve gotten used to twitter are afraid tumblr won’t be as useful to them if they jump ship, but here’s the thing: twitter is only built for instant short-term gratification, and it severely limits what you can share anyway. You can only post one short paragraph and up to four images that get compressed to death, then at best get a burst of viral attention that lasts a day or two before their algorithm buries it forever and it’s forgotten immediately. On tumblr you can post a whole original article, story or multi-page comic. If you want it to get attention you just tag it every relevant thing you can think of and it stays pretty visible in those tags forever and ever. People interested in said tags follow them or routinely search them, scroll through and will see what you made even years later. Without an algorithm automatically flooding your dash with nonsense and without a “trending news” feature, it’s also practically effortless here on tumblr to avoid things you don’t want to see. If you don’t like a political topic, you just don’t search for it or follow people who post about it and you’re already significantly less likely to see it, just like that. If you really miss algorithmic content, tumblr mobile now has the “for you” section and has always had “based on your likes” options. This is absolutely the most comfortable and useful website for creators to network on as long as you understand its advantages!

Going to need this guy's lawyer

thank you for tags, I was too lazy to elaborate lol but it is funny how the headline is worded as if everyone would find the activities 'fun'

No joke, Joseph Stalin used to do this shit as a tactic. He would throw a rager every night and it was required that his people attend. Some people got so sick of drinking they paid the staff to serve them dyed water instead of booze but Stalin found out and was pissed.

You know who's not plotting to overthrow their boss/fascist government? People who are constantly drunk and/or hungover.

How to protect yourself during stampede

this isn’t the usual thing I’d share on my stupid nerd blog, but this is SO important. I was nearly crushed in a crowd like this once. It was terrifying because you have NO control over the panicking mass of humans around you. you are just at the mercy of all this chaotic force. this is a real thing that can happen very suddenly! it did happen in the news recently! My situation was, the olympics was happening in my city, I was on my way home from school, and a crowd of people suddenly flooded into the street around me. in seconds it went from, busy-city-street-crowded, to, wtf I can’t even move crowded. I was so pressed against the backpack of the man in front of me, my feet lifted off the ground a moment. People were climbing lamp posts, signs, bus shelters, trees, everything to get up out of it. it was like the street became an ocean of people, and all the people’s survival instincts were making them dumber. everyone was yelling. no one knew how to solve it. police, fire fighters and medics saved us by breaking the locks on the inside of the mall we were trapped next to. a huge group flooded into the building, releasing a bit of the pressure on the people outside. I was in that group that got in.

We were trapped in the mall awhile. Because the olympics was on, they had big screens in a few sitting areas of the mall that would normally be showing the games. but now the coverage was focused on this crowd surge. They showed a helicopter shot of the building we were now in, totally surrounded by colorful dots. a solid mass of humans with no space between.  I know someone was partially trampled and needed medics, because I saw that, but i don’t know the statistics on who else was hurt, hopefully no one killed! I don’t know if these methods can definitely save you, but they might give you a better chance. so watch and share!

Sharing to my own stupid nerd blog for the same reason, this is SO IMPORTANT. Human crushes are one of the most unexpected ways to die. People go out to a show or a sports game, and make it there, but they never come back. Other strategies include staying away from large obstacles (like fences) that you could get crushed against, and doing your best to stay above the crowd. Try to climb onto something if you can.

And also — not to get nitpicky with deadly tragedies, but they’re called “human crushes,” not “stampedes.” It’s an important difference in description and also in respect. The deaths usually happen because the victims are pinned together in a tight space, they can’t breathe (as in the video) and they suffocate. “Stampede” doesn’t convey what actually happened to those people. The crush that happened in Seoul recently wasn’t because people “stampeded,” it was because they couldn’t move at all and they suffocated. But calling it a “stampede,” you’d think it was the people themselves that ran over each other, like wild animals. It’s disrespectful and untrue.

Horrifyingly, the victims of many human crushes have been blamed for their own deaths, which are usually purely accidental or due to criminal mismanagement from authorities. If you’re in a mental place to read about tragedies and police corruption, check out the Hillsborough Disaster, in which 97 people died due to the incompetence of the police, who then blamed everything on the victims: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hillsborough_disaster

from the article linked above:

“Many uninjured fans assisted the injured; several attempted CPR and others tore down advertising hoardings to use as stretchers. 

Chief Superintendent John Nesbit of South Yorkshire Police later briefed Michael Shersby MP that leaving the rescue to the fans was a deliberate strategy, and is quoted as saying “We let the fans help so that they would not take out their frustration on the police” at a Police Federation conference.“

for the new twitter users interacting with content:

- LIKES DO NOTHING BUT BOOKMARK.

- REBLOGS ARE THE WAY TO GO.

- TAGS AND COMMENTS ADD 100HP TO A CREATOR’S HEALTH BAR.

- AN EMPTY BLOG (DEFAULT PFP, NOTHING REBLOGGED/POSTED) IS MORE LIKELY TO BE BLOCKED BY ANOTHER USER

- INTERNET DISCOURSE IS DISCOURAGED. PLEASE JUST BLOCK AND GO.

remember, you're on tumblr. do as the tumblrians do

I had no idea that chickens could?? float?? or swim??? I don’t know why I’ve never thought of chickens as buoyant. I never picture chickens anywhere near water. what else have I been missing

C'est les swimming poules
