female awesome meme: [2/10] female characters who deserve better ♕ Raven Reyes “Everyone thinks they have an idea on how to help me feel better. Stay in camp, only do jobs where I can sit down, ask every time I need something on a high shelf. But you know what? I’m not that person. People think I can just change and my pain will go away, but I can’t.”

Some reminders about Dr. King before tomorrow:

  • The United States Government was found guilty of his murder in a civil trial in 1999 that his family fought for years.
  • He spoke out against police brutality, capitalism, and war.
  • He believed that white moderates were and are the greatest threat to civil rights, moreso than any hate group.
  • He was arrested over 10 times.
  • He was considered a dangerous radical by the majority of white Americans. 
  • He refused to condemn rioters, because “a riot is the language of the unheard.”
  • Any white person who voted for Trump who tries to use MLK or his words as a rhtetorical tactic to justify their bigotry and complain about people protesting can personally come to my apartment in the next 24 hours for an ass-kicking.

“It was the normalcy of these kids that got me. She (Fisher) displayed a lot of humor, and Harrison Ford didn’t talk as much as the other two.”
Kreck said they spoke for about 45 minutes.
“They were so young and so enthusiastic and thrilled to be asked to go on a national tour for a movie,” Kreck said. “They were just kids. I think for most of them, it was their first big movie. They were very nice, we laughed and had a good time. Mark Hamill was nice, kinda quiet. She (Fisher) was the peppiest of the bunch and much more willing to talk. I got the impression that he (Ford) was going through the motions.”
The trio addressed subjects ranging from their financial stake in the film, to a scandalous story involving Fisher, published in People magazine, to how they got their roles. And they came hungry, according to the story Andrews wrote about the interview, which ran June 15, 1977.
“Vowing ‘We like junk food,’ the three proceeded to devour everything fistfuls of silver could extract from the sandwich machines at The Denver Post coffee shop — from vending-machine pancakes, to sodas and to a packet of two hard-boiled eggs and crackers,” Andrews wrote. Fisher apparently slipped one of those eggs into her bag because, as Andrews wrote, “when you are out promoting a film on a multicity itinerary, you never know where your next meal is coming from.”

a restaurant in my hometown got a review that said the servers should “show some skin” so the owner added a potato skin special to the menu and all the proceeds from the special go to the west virginia foundation for rape information services (x)

That’s exactly the appropriate response.

britney spears IS 100% that drunk girl in the bathroom of the club that had a couple cosmos and looks at you while you’re touching up your lipstick and just says “oh my god, you are so beautiful! like i’m serious! you are the cutest girl in the world!” and then takes a selfie with you that she won’t remember taking the next morning and then walks out of the bathroom and that is one of the many reasons i love britney spears
