there should be a mandate of heaven that causes each police officer that touches any peaceful protestor to instantly have their lungs filled with bile to drown in their own body, but unfortunately heaven has left the work to us so be sure to hate and revile and subvert all police officers as much as you can for the rest of your life. in case you somehow hadn't already been convinced by the past (however many years youve been alive) years.

caliborn has so many choice lines i can’t even be mad like

[THRU TEARS ] LMAO

I cant believe this tweet is how I find out

now all the things you guys have told me about american high schools are starting to make sense

holy shit.

It's 100% because of abusers parents and guardians who want to deprive their children of a secular upbringing and indoctrinate them into whatever nonsense they believe in, as well as discipline them however they see fit and exploit them for money.

Specifically, Articles 13 and 14 are concerned with the freedom of expression, the freedom to seek out, receive, and impart information, and the freedom of thought, conscience, and religion. Article 17 concerns access to mass media of both national and international origin. Article 19 concerns protecting children from abuse and neglect. Article 24 concerns access to healthcare. Article 28 concerns access to education, and Article 29 further stipulates that education should promote tolerance and respect of other people and cultures. Article 32 protects children from economic exploitation.

In the USA, the land of the free, we can't have any of that! If a parent believes the outside world is evil and wants to keep their kids from reading books that aren't about how God will send them to Hell for speaking out of turn, they have that freedom! If a parent believes that medicine is evil and wants to keep their kid from being vaccinated or put their kid on a raw meat diet or use homeopathy to treat an inflamed appendix, they have that freedom! If a parent wants to teach their kid that white people are the master race and that it is their duty to massacre everyone else, they have that freedom! And if a parent wants to take their kids out of school to work on the farm or get into the acting business, they have that freedom!

Sure, a horrific amount of children might be subject to abuse that will scar them forever and potentially lead to their untimely deaths, but that's just the price we pay for freedom! Freedom for parents to treat their kids like property, that is. The kids don't get any freedom.

Pay attention to specific educational scenarios conservatives deem inappropriate and you notice a lot of them are actually tied to prevention of child abuse (such as teaching about consent and identifying inappropriate touch)...

hater of socks

what is your problem !!!

The excerpt paragraph made me look up and stare at my wife for three solid minutes waiting for them to return to the couch. I couldn’t move on with my life. I had to read it aloud to them to their audible disgust and then they read all the comments with unbridled delight.

Now we keep repeating “Like Zorro.”

it's cool how these cost almost as much as my house

So we all know that Tumblr is US-centric. But to what degree? (and can we skew the results of this poll by posting it at a time where they should be asleep?)

Reblog to increase sample size!

Bit telling that for years and years evangelical religious extremists have been allowed on university campuses with their bullhorns and horrific imagery where they harass students into physical altercations and when students complain to the university’s administration they just shrug their shoulders citing freedom of speech but when those same tuition-paying students start protesting against war and genocide they call SWAT

Acab because the people that made this meme thinks the cops should just kill someone like this

Cops having a chuckle because they’re too cowardly to take a beating in order to save a life. All cops are cowards.

I can’t stress this enough, the people agreeing with this meme think having a psychotic break should carry a death sentence.

So cops wanna be able to kill people but don’t want to risk their life to help people?

It makes me happy when they listen

posts this and then walks away

I mean I could review establishments purely on their glass of water alone, this is an essential component of any food and/or beverage experience and if you can’t get it right then it calls into question everything that follows.

walking into every cafe in town and ostentatiously asking for a glass of water and the bill.

Not gonna lie I have walked out of a “fancy” restaurant before because of the water. This was type of restaurant that has a $100+ wine menu and they placed us at a plastic table and served water in a plastic pitcher and plastic cups. If you think I’m gonna spend $30+ on an entree and $100 on wine you better at least be serving it to me on a wooden table with glassware. Straight up insulting

#and it wasn’t like the rigid plastic coke cups that can go through the dishwasher you sometimes see at casual restaurants#nah it was straight up clear cvs plastic cups with rolled rims like i was at a college party

they what?

Being able to serve cold water and, in the case of bottles, the actual advertised brand, should be a low bar to clear. Should…

I become exhausted when post-consumer/reuse ideas become trendy because I'll see someone on the community page asking where they can get 20 1-gallon milk jugs for their indoor gardening projects and the answer is obviously the waste bin, after drinking 20 gallons of milk. But they dont mean that, they mean where can they buy them new and already clean. But the point of using gallon jugs is to make clever use of things you already have, not to buy more.

Like when pallet gardening was a thing but people wanted brand new clean looking pallets instead of going to the hardware store loading dock and asking if they could take broken and used ones.

Like yes we get that ot looks cute and it's a solution to a problem but the point of it was to use things that would have been otherwise tossed.

By the way, the answer to "where can I get trash, not just what looks like trash but actual trash that's free, for my DIY projects without making it all myself or digging in dumpsters" is trashnothing.com

Wanting something that looks cute and trendy is fine as long as you don't sail straight past the point and end up spending hundreds of dollars online on a table that looks like a cable spool

(also, dumpster diving really isn't so bad)

Ask your neighbors too!

Splatoon fans: *starting to draw bioluminescence and blush spots matching the color of the inkling’s ink*

Me, a homestuck, ready to go down this avenue again:

unsung benefit i think a lot of ppl are sleeping on with using the public library is that i think its a great replacement for the dopamine hit some ppl get from online shopping. it kind of fills that niche of reserving something that you then get to anticipate the arrival of and enjoy when it arrives, but without like, the waste and the money.

bonus it ALSO fills that dopamine hit of in-person shopping. “oh I didn’t go in looking for this but hmm, I’m tempted… I can’t resist… oh ho ho I have made some irresponsible decisions at the library today [carrying my stack of ten random books]” and then it doesn’t even matter if you don’t like them because a) free b) you’re gonna give them back anyway

Librarian here! Please please please please PLEASE do this! We don’t have any way to know if you read them, and we don’t care! We’re happy to see those books go out because that helps our stats. And that affects how much money we can get.

So grab that silly paperback romance, and maybe this new YA fantasy, oh and check for the new movies too! And don’t forget to check Libby and hoopla for music and ebooks and e-audio.

Top-Tier Villain Motivations

Very important, cannot believe I forgot:

March 2011 – April 2016

The Dave vs Bro fight was the moment that really got me into Homestuck, and is what inspired my first fan art of the webcomic.

So, for my sendoff to Homestuck, I knew I would be drawing Dave’s Bro again, in another favourite moment - the meteor slice.

Homestuck has been inspiring, devastating, confusing, uplifting, boring, exciting, frustrating, amazing… I almost feel I’ve experienced all four romantic quadrants in my relationship to it over the years.

I’m happy to see it finally finished.
