Good evening fellow bad students.... struggling students.... easily distracted students..... frustrated students...... fed up students....... I’d ask how you’re doing but.

Some guy just mansplained space to an actual fucking astronaut.

tfw correcting misinformation is written off as mansplaining

tfw when idiots on tumblr who know jack shit about thermo assume the dude is ‘correcting misinformation’ when actually he’s dead ass wrong. ‘Spontaneous’ is a scientific term - it means a reaction with a negative Gibb’s free energy, i.e. a reaction that will occur without an external energy input, i.e. water boiling because of low atmospheric pressure. Spontaneous is absolutely the correct term for what she’s observing, and that is ‘simple thermo’, and this is ‘correcting misinformation’.

Have a nice day.

to any people who say “we’re not going to help florida or texas with their hurricanes” even as a joke: i just want y’all to consider how marginalized communities are disproportionately hit by hurricanes in terms of damage. some of y’all justified some parts of louisiana getting completely destroyed by these hurricanes just with the fact that we went red and not even considering the sheer amount of voter suppression in this state. y’all saying this shit is really fucking scary and really shows that y’all really never cared about the people suffering from the corruption in the South’s governments.

it’s really not cute. it really isn’t. stop saying this shit.

So 2016 is SO bad that it made the creator of this meme give us an alternative version of “This is Fine”. 

2016? PSSHHHHH

God remember when we thought 2016 was the worst year….

2020 is a direct result of what happened in 2016. A lot of us saw something like this coming as we saw that year unfold. Yes, 2016 was a terrible year. It was, in fact, the worst. Because actions taken that year led us to where we are now. This year wasn’t inevitable. Neither was 2016. Almost all of the problems we’re facing right now are man made. Stop looking back fondly on the frying pan and focus on getting out of the fire.

GIVE 👏🏻 BOYS 👏🏻 ROMANTIC 👏🏻 PHYSICAL 👏🏻 AFFECTION 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 I DONT EVEN KNOW HOW MANY GUYS I HAVE BEEN WITH OR TALKED TO THAT SAY THEY HAVE NEVER HAD SOMEONE HOLD THEM OR KISS THEIR FOREHEADS OR PLAY WITH THEIR HAIR. I HAVE HAD A BOY BREAK DOWN IN FRONT OF ME BECAUSE I HELD HIM TO MY CHEST AS HE GOT SLEEPY AND HE HADNT EVER HAD SOMEONE HOLD HIM LIKE THAT !!!!! THIS IS NOT RIGHT !!!!! BOYS DESERVE PHYSICAL AFFECTION JUST LIKE EVERYONE ELSE AND NOT JUST IN A SEXUAL WAY !!!!!!!!!!! THEY DESERVE TO FEEL LOVED AND CARED FOR JUST LIKE THE LADIES !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
