when to complain about teachers

-when they’re abusive

-when they’re bigoted

-when they marginalize certain students bc of disability, race, gender identity, etc

-when they teach poorly

-when they willfully spread misinformation

-when they refuse to consider student feedback

-when they abuse their authority in any way

when to stop being a douche and give your damn teacher a break

-when they take more than one night to grade your shit

-when you opted not to follow the instructions they clearly dispensed

-when they’re forced to teach state curriculum regardless of their own feelings or beliefs

-when they come in tired

-when your class is being douchewads and the teacher expresses irritation

-when they’re a decent but overworked and underpaid human

Repeat after me, kids: your significant other liking multiple genders does nothing to invalidate the fact that they like you best.

It simply means that they could have chosen literally anyone on earth, regardless of gender, and yet they still picked you.

I just read this super sad post about this girl who’s asexual and married and everyone is basically telling her that she doesn’t deserve her husband/she’s just a prude/she should just do it anyway.
So I want to tell you all right now that if people tell you this, or if they tell you you’ll never have a relationship, it is BULLSHIT.
My husband is asexual and I’m not. He’s sex repulsed, we don’t have sex, we never have.
And it doesn’t matter to me. You know what does? He does. His mental health and wellbeing matter to me. Because he is my best friend and he’s one of the smartest, kindest, funniest people I’ve ever met. And he’s had people tel him that he’s broken and it makes me SO ANGRY because they are WRONG.
Being different doesnt mean you’re broken.
If you don’t like sex/don’t want it/etc. Do not let anyone tell you that you’re inferior because you’re not.
Do not let anyone convice you that you’ll never have a relationship because they’re wrong(if you want one).
You are not broken, and it will be okay.

This made me feel really good. Remember this, for all my ace spectrum friends out there

I can’t stress to you how fucking important it is to tell your child you’re proud of them TO THEIR FACE. Don’t fucking wait until the moment they go into hysterics. Don’t wait until they tell you that they don’t think you’re proud of them. FUCKING TELL THEM EVERY DAY. Even if it’s something you don’t understand, and they’re BEAMING, you fucking tell that child you’re proud of them. Don’t wait until it’s too late.

What if aliens visited Earth during the Jurassic Period, found it to be occupied with a bunch of mean, giant lizards and thought “Well, fuck this planet” and never came back?

what if when humans went out into the galaxy all the aliens panicked because if the dinosaurs’ tiny fur snacks now had spaceships and laser blasters and interstellar colonies then what the fuck were the dinosaurs up to??? 

#important human policy: do not let any aliens know the dinosaurs are extinct#EVER

jurassic park movies as extremely important interstellar propaganda

This is probably the best post on Tumblr tbh it combines aliens, dinosaurs, space travel, evolution, and borderline absurd humor in one thing

HIV

contemplativeurbanwitch:

I work with people who have HIV as a part of my job. If you have HIV please remember:

HIV can be controlled by medications for a super long time (think 30 years+). It is more like getting a diabetes diagnosis than a death sentence.

No matter how your infection happened you deserve to live and have a happy life.

By federal law in the United States there is tons of resources to help you get medication for FREE.

You can find partners who will accept you and love you.

You can have children who are born HIV-. If a child is born in a first world county with medical care the likelyhood of transmission is rediculously low.

On medication your likelyhood of infecting others decreases significantly depending on your viral load.

PEP and PrEP are exciting things to look into to be able to have unprotected sex and prevent transmission.

HIV does not have to be central to your identity.

People who take their medication like prescribed can actually have as few as 2 doctor appointments a year for their condition !

Don’t let stigma, fear and lack of education get you down! You are a wonderful person and can achieve wonderful things. Don’t give up.

And if you don’t know your status please get tested. Please!

vaccinate your fucking kids. 

my mother, whilst pregnant, was exposed to unvaccinated kids who had measles. She got the virus, but my brother (26 weeks of gestation) was affected by the virus. 

he has a degenerative neurological disorder called neuronal migration. My brother has cerebral palsy, epilepsy, and autism. He’s in a wheelchair. We communicate via sign language. he has fits. My brother, at 17, may catch a cold that’ll kill him. he’s nearly died twice because of pneumonia. He had a seizure last year, fell out of bed, and fractured his collarbone. 

At the age of fourteen, I and my father had panic attacks when my brother had a seizure. His heart stopped. I, at fourteen, had to act the parent because my father was catatonic with grief because he thought he was losing his son. 

vaccinate your fucking kids you selfish bastards. 

you have no idea

NONE. AT ALL.

about the pain my parents suffer because my poor brother is so ill. 

Vaccinate your children or so help you.

pros & cons of all netflix original shows
  • pro: gays
  • con: full two minute long opening credit sequences like it's cool the first time maybe netflix but why does it have to be so long like do a full run the first time fine but after that just flash us the title u know your audience is binge watching this anyway u practically invented the binge watch so why does the content you created specifically for your platform contain such excessively long credits that the viewer is just gonna skip over anyway come on now

Two non-offensive alternatives to the term "spirit animal"

selchieproductions:

  • Daemon - The only one you’re appropriating is Pullman and by appropriating Pullman you’re upsetting no-one, save possibly the Pope.
  • Patronus - Wizards everywhere are more than willing to lend you this term and the geekiness is an added bonus. I just read that geeks are sexy, or so the Metro, so, there you go, a patronus is clearly your next ascribed accessory.

ilookextremelygood:

just a heads up, if i ever weird you out on any level, too friendly, too flirty, anything at all, i encourage you to be very vocal towards me about it to make sure i dont continue to make you uncomfortable. i dont want anyone feeling like im not someone they can trust and be comfortable around.

Normalize vocalizing discomfort.

Last weekend, a guy that at that point I’d known for about 24 hours called me “darling“. I could tell he didn’t mean anything by it, but I (politely) asked that he not do that because I don’t like it. He looked surprised and got a little defensive - “oh, I call all my friends that!“ “Okay, well I’d still rather you didn’t“ “oh well harumph harumph sorry”

whereas the exchange should have gone

“blah blah blah, darling“

“oh please don’t call me that, I don’t care for that“

“oh I’m sorry, I won’t do that“ CONTINUE CONVERSATION

Normalize vocalizing discomfort.

Yep yep yep. I’ve literally had people give me weird looks because I correct them when they try to shorten my name. My own family members don’t call me by any nickname.

reasons i disagree with natasha being on team tony:

  • her speech at the end of catws saying how the government wasn’t going to arrest any of them bc they need them doesn’t sound like she’s all for superhero accountability
  • aware of the presence of hydra (possibly in the government) and how that could put registered people at risk
  • she’s shown little or no trust to the people on team iron man (as opposed to the level of trust she has with clint/steve); trust is a common theme in natasha’s characterization and is an important part of her relationships

not a reason i disagree with natasha being on team tony:

  • i think she should “follow steve around”

If anyone in California is interested in adopting a dog or a cat, Kerns County Animal Shelter ( one of the most disgraceful shelters in California ) is being shut down. Dogs are being sold for 15$ and cats for 5$ ( all are fixed with shots. )

Every animal will be put down by September 30th.
