Rise Up, Oh Heart, For There is Another Battle to Win

Things you can take from me:
- Love
- Land
- My ability to stand
Things you cannot take from me, however, include:
- Sky
This is due to my finding of serenity, which cannot be taken even if one were to go as far as to burning the ground and heating the seas to a boiling temperature. Further, taking me out to the blackness of space with no hope of return will not have any discernible effect.
the worst part about the stereotype that young people are lazy is that it makes so much of our work seem invalid. i know so many kids who have 6+ hours of homework a day, do sports/extracurricular activities, have jobs, get less than 5 hours of sleep a night from studying, and still get dismissed as being lazy just cause their room isn’t clean
If you and your 42 classmates disappeared on your way to school, wouldn’t you want people to look for you?
If your child was burn to death, wouldn’t you want justice?
If your mom or sister was one of the thousands of women brutally murdered every single day, wouldn’t you want justice?
If your dad was one of the men they hung from bridges, wouldn’t you want justice?
This is what México is fighting for, every day tragedies where the state is involved, wake the fuck up!!!
studying at hogwarts must have been a nightmare seriously can you imagine a recent graduate sitting in a job interview and the stern witch is like “you have no newt qualifications, why is that?” and the graduate slams their fists on the table and yells “BECAUSE DUMBLEDORE FUCKING CANCELLED THE EXAMS BECAUSE SOME TWELVE YEAR OLD KILLED A GIANT SNAKE”

i have a secret dream to one day unapologetically punch someone hard in the face.
I have. It’s great.
you know what it’s called when you use ‘he was just doing his job’ to excuse people’s actions? it’s called a ‘nuremberg defense’ because that was literally the excuse nazis tried to use during the nuremberg trials
“racism is dead”
“you keep it alive by talking about it”
“white people go to jail too”
“everything isn’t always about race”
“we don’t know the whole story”
“why do you always have to bring up (reality)?”
“martin luther king—”
I have heard all of these in the past week.
Every.last.one.
unlearn racism & white supremacy without expecting some kind of pat on the back for believing in basic human rights

“no problem”
The bond created between you and whoever asks you to watch their stuff in the library is so real and I have no idea why.

Centaurs aren’t real. Do you understand that?
yes that is why i made a tumblr post about this instead of just asking a real centaur
Horse nipple is easier to reach for a baby centaur
