I’m gonna be real with all of you. Immigration laws shouldn’t exist. People should be allowed to visit and live in any country they like without having to take years of testing to ‘prove’ they care about the country or the government or some dumb bullshit. Most born Americans don’t even know what’s in the bill of rights aside from the first couple amendments, and when that shit was written it didn’t consider anyone who was nonwhite and or a woman as a person deserving rights so. It’s all a sack of crap anyway. “Free country” is also bullshit because if it were really free anyone could live here without fearing for their life or the lives of their children without having to sign a bunch of papers in a complicated language they don’t know that was design to fail them. This country has always been shit and immigration laws have always been shit and they’re built on racism full stop. And anyone who argues that immigration laws aren’t inherently racist and inhumane is a big ass bootlicker. End post. 

my favourite fanfic trope is “for some reason we have to platonically share this bed and there is so much sexual and romantic tension we can barely function and at some point during the night one of us is going to end up spooning the other and we’re going to wake up in the morning an awkward tangle of limbs but we’re both going to pretend to be asleep even though we’re actually awake because we think the other is asleep so we can lie like this for just a few more minutes”

YOU’RE SO RIGHT THOUGH

The guy next to me in a coffee shop is telling his date ‘You know you girls are all liars. Well, not all, but I’d say 80%. More than half.’

‘Girls think they have power over men by using sex as a bargaining chip and they don’t.‘

Now he’s telling her about a ‘psycho’ date he had who started telling him how ‘patronizing’ he was OUT OF NOWHERE

He’s a musician but he says he couldn’t date any of the ‘sheep’ who come to his gigs.

He’s been talking about himself literally nonstop since I sat down fifteen minutes ago. The scariest thing is the girl is listening actively, leaning forward, and smiling and giggling while I’m mentally screaming ‘Run, girl, run!’

Now he’s talking about gig he did for the troops in Afghanistan and how dangerous it was. ‘I could have been shot by a sniper at any second. But I was making people human. I was keeping them from going crazy. I was playing bass and crowd-surfing on my back. We were treated like ACDC. I had a prejudice about the military but you see the armed forces for what they are. They’re good people.’

He’s finally stopped telling her about the military and has gone back to covering every detail of his career. I still know absolutely nothing about his date.

Now he’s complaining about how bad the dancers were at one of his gigs (‘pathetic, ridiculous’).

Now he’s giving her a detailed history lesson on Greco-Turkish military conflict. I swear I’m not making any of this up.

Summary of the rest of the date:

Guy’s talking continues, relentless. Girl’s responses slowly growing more and more lackluster (unnoticed). Finally Guy gets up to use the bathroom. I casually say to Girl, ‘First date?’ A few seconds later, we’re recapping every obnoxious moment, literally holding onto each other, doubled over and gasping with laughter. ‘He hasn’t stopped talking since I sat down!’ ‘Oh my god, I’m so tired!’ ‘I mean, it’s your choice, but I wouldn’t go on a second date with that guy.’ More peals of laughter. ‘Oh my god, I’m so tired!’ ‘Not that I wanted to eavesdrop, but when he said all women were liars…’ ‘I know, right? I couldn’t believe it! I didn’t want to offend him, but…’ And so on. Finally: ‘Shh, here he comes.’

We straighten up and I pretend to be working on my laptop. Guy comes back to the table and they leave together. She waves at me behind his back.

no way could i have gotten through that date

OMG

You know, I actually think that dude may have a point about 80% of girls he’s known being liars. Haven’t we all been that girl at some point, fake-smiling and faking interest in some self-obsessed douchenozzle going on about his Important Manly Self?

Being scared to tell him HONESTLY how disgusting and awful he is, since he could flip out and kill us for rejecting his ass or stalk us or any number of things many men do.

Yep. Girls do lie. For survival. Because men like him exist.

Honestly if a white girl was casted to play Ariel nobody would have gave a shit about her ethnicity being danish but because a black girl was casted all of the sudden people are anthropologists and experts in danish culture just admit ur racist already that’s 10x easier than this back and forth

people better start talking about the fact a fucking cop shot and killed a native man in the middle of a Fourth of July fireworks display in full view of the watching public including family and children, this shit is so disgusting fuck America and fuck the motherfucking police. This was in poulsbo WA btw.

Stonechild “Stoney” Chiefstick was a Squamish man shot and killed by an officer they refuse to name in the middle of a park before while waiting for a firework show.

People are claiming the cops were called bc he was threatening people. Some claim he was threatening people with a screwdriver but that hasn’t been confirmed.

So. Even if all this is true and he was “acting weird” and threatening people why the fuck did it require murder? How much do you hate native people and not value their lives that you literary murder them in broad daylight even tho they have not actually attacked anyone? Who if they were white would be labeled as a “rowdy partygoer”. When white mass shooters are brought into custody unharmed?

My apologies—Stoney was a Chippewa Cree man with Squamish family members and not Squamish himself as I erroneously stated.

In any case you can support his family with funeral expenses here

just a quick thing, but it’s important:

if I say cishets, i do not ever mean aspec people.

thank u for coming to my ted talk

being a self-taught artist with no formal training is having done art seriously since you were a young teenager and only finding out that you’re supposed to do warm up sketches every time you’re about to work on serious art when you’re fuckin twenty-five

you’re supposed to what now

Lady Bunny defends Taylor Swift after backlash from new song

‘Taylor’s petition is a demand — where is yours?’

Iconic American drag queen Lady Bunny has defended Taylor Swift after backlash to her new song.

‘Taylor’s petition supports the Equality Act, which bans discrimination against LGBT people for housing and work. The act passed the House Of Representatives in May.

‘When I posted about it on Fecesbook (sic), my post got a couple likes. My next post, about a Florida man on meth having oral sex with an alligator, got dozens of likes and shares,’ Lady Bunny wrote.

Lady Bunny: ‘Taylor’s petition is a demand — where is yours?’

Lady Bunny then continued: ‘So despite what we may suspect is the reason Taylor is suddenly an ally, she’s doing more than most people in our community. Why does it take a pop star’s video to get us discussing our own rights?

‘Because gay media is so dumbed down? And is gay media dumbed down because they know what we clicked on before and are therefore just providing us with more polarizing celeb content? I’ve just looked at the homepage of several leading gay sites. Most articles are celebrity gossip.

‘Without Taylor, would most even know about the Equality Act? Are the gay celebrities in the video posting about it?

‘There is an election coming up. If we make no demands from politicians, then we get nothing from them even if they win with our support. They need our votes now, and if we pay so little attention to our rights that a pop video sparks the widest debate on it, then that screams to politicians “Ignore our community, since we barely even care about ourselves.”

‘Whether I like her music or not, Taylor’s petition is a demand. Where is yours?’ she wrote.

The 56-year-old best friend of RuPaul took to Instagram to defend Swift’s latest hit, You Need to Calm Down.

‘I’m not a fan of Taylor Swift,’ she wrote in the caption of a photo of Taylor Swift. ‘Is she using gay causes to promote her new song? Sure, just like Born This Way, I Kissed A Girl and Madonna’s I Rise did.’

She then added: ‘My question is this: Regardless of why she’s doing it, has Taylor Swift done more for the gay community than most within that community? She donated $113,000.

‘We’re not all pop stars with that kind of money to donate, but did we give any to support our own causes? Love her music or hate it, Swift created a petition which has now been signed by several presidential candidates. Did you sign or create one? That’s free to do.
