Sometimes people use “respect” to mean “treating someone like a person” and sometimes they use “respect” to mean “treating someone like an authority”
and sometimes people who are used to being treated like an authority say “if you won’t respect me I won’t respect you” and they mean “if you won’t treat me like an authority I won’t treat you like a person”
and they think they’re being fair but they aren’t, and it’s not okay.
This is so well put I am stunned
Natasha Romanoff was twisted, abused, undone, and lived a very brutal, very savage life. She was a monster.
She looked at that, she looked at what she was.
And it turned her into a person who makes dumb jokes about Steve being a fossil. Someone who is constantly trying to get her 90 year old friend a date. Someone who tirelessly works to make up for every debt she owes. Someone who always tells people that it’s not their fault when bad things happen. Someone who actively puts herself in harm’s way armed with nothing but a jumpsuit and a gun in order to protect innocent people while giant green rage monsters and demigods and super-soldiers surround her.
How do you not make a fucking movie about that.
all my sisters and their kids are out of town and me and my brother are home and my dad did a fucking easter egg hunt for us we’re 21 and 23 this is so ridiculous he was like “I was feeling really nostalgic this morning and when you guys were little I would make it a little harder each year so expect this to be a pretty difficult hunt” and I just found an egg inside of a shampoo bottle in the shower
the true american experience is wondering if you just heard firecrackers or gunshots
PLEASE TELL ME THIS IS A JOKE
bonus points: both are illegal in your state and you still cannot tell
Bonus points: one is illegal in your state and it is not the gun
what the fuck is going on down there are you guys okay
Yes exactly, all of this, still true. Fireworks have always been the more illegal one in the states I’ve lived in, and I honestly cannot tell and get worried when I hear the noises. I know I’ve reblogged before… but I will reblog every time this comes across my dash.
Cards Against Humanity is where you learn which of your friends are basic and which ones are sociopaths there is no in between
Mulan will be the next live action Disney princess movie. Reblog if you will ONLY see it if Mulan is at the very least, Asian.
I swear to god if she’s not Chinese I’m not fucking around with it. AT ALL.

Ron Weasley sacrificed himself for the good of Harry and Hermione at age eleven because even then he thought they were more important than he was,…

a riddle:
a man is driving his son to school. they get into an accident and the man dies. the son is rushed to the hospital and when he arrives for emergency surgery the doctor says “i cant operate on this boy, he is my son!” how is this possible?
omg one time our english teacher told us this to try and show what a modern thinker he was and we were all like “it’s a woman” and he was like oh wow i thought he was gay i hadn’t thought of that
Society has us believe that only men are doctors and only women are nurses, and that isn’t right. Riddles like these that make us think, are the ones truly exposing sexism for what it is.
Did you know? Lesbians and male homosexuals would marry each other in Nazi Germany just to escape persecution?
Queer history tho like
I honestly am learning things everyday that shape my knowledge of what it means to be LGBT? Like did you know Malcolm X was bisexual? Did you know the Nazis persecuting homosexuals said they were protecting “traditional family values,” the same arguments used today by Republicans? Washington in the 1780s expelled several soldiers for engaging in consensual same-sex acts? FDR launched a plan in the 1920s where he forced young sailors to try and trap other sailors into sex? I think schools need to stop erasing queer history from social studies and queer literature from English classes. And also start teaching children to respect gay people at a young age, like grade five. That’s the only way I can see any change coming about…
I really want the new live action Mulan movie to have an entirely racially correct cast, except Eddie Murphy still plays Mushu.
No CGI. I want Eddie Murphy to wear a dragon suit.
Why does Leverage not have a bigger, more active fandom?
I mean the show has a main cast of five people. Two of those people are some of the most impressively and complexly written female characters I have seen on television. The other three male characters all defy stereotypes, you have a professional assassin who specializes in hand to hand combat who also raises bonsai and is a classically trained chef. You also have a black guy who is a total computer geek and genius. Then you have the ex insurance agent/ ex Catholic seminarian who decides to run a gang of super thieves. And those are just the men.
One of the women is a cute little blonde who will proceed to stab you with a fork, leap off a forty story building, and then steal a priceless painting. She has a complex backstory that is slowly revealed throughout the series and eventually she takes over the entire operation.
The other woman is a failed actress and brilliant conwoman who can manipulate anyone she wants too, this frequently includes the men on her team. She also speaks countless languages and is a total badass. She is also played by an ethnically Jewish actress who is the daughter of Russian and Polish immigrants.
This show has some of the best character development I have ever seen along with snappy plot and brilliant one liners. It’s also entirely on Netflix. It also makes Dr. Who references at various points. Summary, this show is absolutely beautiful. You should all watch it.
I am happy to provide an explanation as to why Autism Speaks is a horrible organization (albeit very visible) if you are looking for some informative and important reading ~Pluto
“If you rape a sexworker is it really rape?”
If you run over and kill a stunt-double is it really murder?
If you assault a professional fighter is it really assault?
A profession doesn’t justify being the victim of a crime.I’m really glad that of all my text posts, this is the most popular
I just got a ride home from the gym from a 40-ish year old five foot tall white woman that I’ve never talked to before tonight.
She offered as she saw me leaving. I live literally across the street. Maybe a 5-10 minute walk.
I asked her why she wanted to give me a ride and she said “Because with what’s going on out there I don’t think it’s safe for you to walk alone in the dark.”
I’m a black male in my late 20s who is six feet 8 inches tall and is roughly 400 lbs. I’m a literal giant.
And she feared for my safety because of what she’s seen on the news all week.
Think about that shit.
This is important.
Never, ever assume asexuals have it easy.
Asexuality is growing up under the assumption you are a late bloomer, and then the assumption you are broken.
Asexuality is learning the word and still being afraid to define yourself as asexual because how can you say you don’t feel something you don’t even understand.
Asexuality is coming out to people and having them laugh and tell you ‘when you find the one’
Asexuality is trying to enter spaces that promise acceptance and being told ‘but you’re straight’
Asexuality is trying to enter a relationship, worried that if you tell them they won’t give you a chance and worried if you don’t you’re just leading them onAsexuality is living in a culture that finds sex so vital half the world revolves around it, and never understanding
Asexuality is being told you have it easy, so often you doubt any of your problems are realSo no. It’s not easy.
If, after you are finished questioning and experimenting with gender/sexuality, you figure out that you are straight and/or cisgender, that is completely okay. Your time spent figuring yourself out was not wasted or in vain, and you weren’t “faking it” the whole time. You’re just as valid as anyone else.
PREACH. Experimenting and becoming more self aware is NOT a waste of time.
Smart and lazy is a horrible combination that results in disappointed teachers, exasperated friends and a whole lot of bad doodling
Oh shit this was literally me in school
Don’t forget those angry parents and half finished homework assignments crumpled in your binders
