You need to know 4 numbers.

78, 80, 80, and 83.

These are what the ages of four supreme court justices will be in 2016, which means the next president very well could choose the next four supreme court justices when those four retire within the next eight years.

Why does this matter? Because the supreme court control all our laws, and we need supreme court justices that will be on the right side of the history.

Who picks the supreme court justices? The president.

Who would pick the justices the best? Bernie Sanders, who has a track record stemming back to marching with MLK with civil rights, has been a supporter of LGBT+ rights since before the 60′s, been against the war on drugs, against going to war for profit gain, isn’t owned by any one (he will not take any donations from corporations), believes in womens rights, believes that free higher education is a right, advocates for single payer healthcare, and is against big banks (wants to break them up into smaller entities).

This is the president who we need to choose the next four supreme court justices.

This is the president who owes no one, but the people who voted for him.

This is the president who hasn’t swayed from their beliefs for over 40 years.

This is the president who has always been on the right side of the history against all odds.

This is the president we need.

PLS READ.

Finally

it’s also worth mentioning that those four justices are Scalia (80), Kennedy (80), Ginsberg (83) & Breyer (78) - Scalia & Kennedy are both Reagan appointed justices who’ve been the main momentum behind most of the regressive decisions by the supreme court. Breyer is part of the liberal wing & Ginsberg is our Lord & Savior

so the point being is that the next president will have the opportunity to fundamentally shift the balance of power for the american judicial system. 

if bernie is that president we could be looking forward to a liberal political climate for another 20-30 years.

Imagine the power and growth of individual rights and equality of 20-30 years of liberal politics.

This is why we need Bernie Sanders to be the one to choose.

YALL BETTA VOTE!!!!!!

Seriously. We were raised to believe, and are still told, that Baby Boomers are the Majority. That when we vote, it does’t count because there are just so many of them. 

This isn’t the case, not anymore. 

Millennials out number Baby Boomers by over 7 MILLION. We are 25% of the population. That’s HUGE. Our votes count, our votes are the votes that can create change. The vast majority of millennials are coming into voting age.
So please, please vote. Know your votes count. You’re part of the biggest, most diverse age in the history of the U.S. and right behind you is an even more diverse population. Please vote and lets change history. 

Be the productive type & fight for your rights by staying aware and voting ✊

Heartbreaking Simpsons Moments 1/∞: Bart Gets an F

I never understood why it’s an F if he gets more than half out of 100? Unless it’s more than 100. If you get more than half the answers right how is it an F?

You must not be from America. Here, grading is fucked up.

Average American Grading Scale:
A+- 97-100
A - 94-96
A- - 90-93
B- 80-89
C- 70-79
D- 60-69
F- 59 and under

And in some places in America it goes by a 7 point scale, so it’d be
A - 100-93
B - 92-85
C - 84-78
D - 77-70
F - 69 and below

Now you understand why American kid’s feel like there’s no point to school. If you have a 100 question text, and get 79 of them correct, that’s a C. That mean’s your Average Intelligence on this particular subject. And it get’s even worse when you have only like… a 10 question quiz. If you get two wrong? that’s a B. 80 fucking %. Now tell me again why American school’s are easier? 

No wait but whats the grading system in other countries?

UK Grading Scale

100-70: A

69-60: B

59-50: C

49-40: D

Below 40: F

next time you try to tell americans that we’re stupid

i’m gonna remind you

that our “average” is your “A”

Yep I was shocked when I heard this in a different post but a Google search pulls up a ton of sites backing this up.
Shit son I woulda passed College Algebra with an A in the UK. And I spent the end of the semester in perpetual fear that I would fail and have to retake the class.

And basically as an American you’re expected to get 80 or higher. Technically 70s are considered ‘average’ but there is such a level of pressure to get a B or higher, that Cs have become equal to Ds. Basically anything under 60 you might as well gotten a 0, and anything between 60-80 is considered practically failing. So basically schools have to be designed to make sure majority of students are getting 80s or higher on specific topics, which means you’re spending all your time going over a few choice facts a billion times and there is very little room to teach anything else. Which explains why American schools are of such low quality. The insane demand on the students ends up wrecking their education. Not only do you not have time to teach them anything, but they end up hating learning. Even outside of school your life is dedicated to memorizing these few dumb facts because your homework ends up taking hours of your time. A teacher from one subject says they expect you to spend 2 hours every night on their homework. And if you’re studying 5 subjects and they all demand that 2 hours? Good fucking luck, because if you don’t have straight all 80s or higher you’re not getting into a good college and college degrees have somehow become the minimum requirement for getting jobs.

I spent most of my junior year of high school in a state of constant panic that I was going to get a C in Honors Physics much less fail the class. If I got a C on my report card, I was grounded until the next one. I lost count of the times I’d wake up at five in the morning to take the early bus to go in for zero hour before school actually started for the day

File this under the exact reason so many Americans detest going to school.

Also if you get a C or a D in a college course, most colleges don’t give you the credit of taking that class, so you have to retake it.

If alcohol labels told the truth.

Oh my gosh, heyyyyyyyyy

Fun fact: tequila is the only alcohol that is not a depressant. That’s why when you drink it you get hot and happy! Oh and if the bottle doesn’t say 100% agave it’s not real tequila stay away from Jose Cuervo or sauza they are 50% corn syrup that’s why you feel like dying the next day

Thank you bartender tumblr

heronbrew asked: WHAT IS THE PURPOSE OF THE HEAD NUBS ON A GIRAFFE?

factsinallcaps:

superwholockedtacoinplaid:

factsinallcaps:

THE ANCESTORS OF GIRAFFES LIKELY HAD ANTLERS FOR COMBAT PURPOSES, LIKE DEERS AND MOOSES. AS THEY GOT COMICALLY TALL, THE WEIGHT OF ANTLERS GOT TOO HEAVY FOR THEIR HILARIOUS NECKS, AND ANTLER FIGHTING BECAME OBSOLETE AND RIDICULOUS, SO THEY EVOLVED PAST ANTLERS. THE NUBS, OR “OSSICONES,” ARE VESTIGIAL STRUCTURES IN THE GIRAFFE’S SKULL. THEY’RE LEFTOVER SUPPORT STRUCTURES FOR THE ANTLERS GIRAFFES USED TO HAVE BEFORE THEY BECAME THE BIOLOGICAL JOKE WE KNOW AND LOVE TODAY. 

THE PLURAL OF MOOSE IS NOT MOOSES.

“MOOSES” IS ONE OF MULTIPLE ACCEPTED PLURALS OF THE ANGLICIZED VERSION OF THE ALGONQUIN WORD “MOOSE.” IF WE WERE SPEAKING ALGONQUIN, THE PLURAL WOULD BE “MOSINEE,” BUT WHEN SPEAKING ENGLISH, EITHER “MOOSE” OR “MOOSES” WILL BE ACCEPTABLE AS PLURALS.

“MEESE,” FOR EXAMPLE, IS NOT AN ACCEPTABLE PLURAL FOR “MOOSE” BECAUSE IT’S NOT DERIVED FROM THE SAME LANGUAGE FAMILY AS THE WORD “GEESE.”

THIS IS THE SAME REASON WHY THE PLURAL OF “OCTOPUS” IS “OCTOPUSES” IN ENGLISH AND “OCTOPODES” IN THE ORIGINAL GREEK, AND “OCTOPI” NOWHERE BECAUSE OCTOPUS IS NOT A WORD IN LATIN.

ALSO, THE STICKING POINT FOR YOU WAS “MOOSES” BUT YOU HAD NOTHING TO SAY ABOUT “DEERS?”
