Reblogging again to add: 

Also, non-Jews, please spread this. People will forget about it otherwise. The police say they aren’t ready to call it a hate crime, despite the fact that witnesses have said that the man was asking people if they were Jewish and waiting for an affirmative response before shooting. The more people who are paying attention to this story the harder it will be for it to be swept under the rug. 

A lot of people are currently very excited about the recent Cap movie. If you believe that it was worthwhile for Steve Rogers to fight fictional nazis, please show that you care about the people harmed by those in the real world who still agree with Nazi ideology. If you can get super excited and make tons of posts about Cap, then you can do this too, right? (obviously there are people who are upset/triggered by this stuff, which is an entirely different situation. but if you can spread the word please do)

Inner Child looking for Outer Adult. – RecklessPrudence

She’d taken inordinate pains to seem adult. Learned how to perfect her makeup. Learned how to deal with the adult responsibilities. Made herself eat her vegetables and stopped playing with her food.

At least in public.

Yet she still bought toys. Played games. Read comic books. Enjoyed animated features and sang along with her favourite songs - despite the fact that she couldn’t really sing. Still did up her hair

I might be being temporarily dense, but how is the word "stupid" an ableist slur? It's one of the few words for "you should know better but...

TL;DR - I don’t know any more.

I’ve been informed by other sources that it is. Sources I respect and admire, since they face such micro-aggressions on a daily basis and still hold it together and remain civil well over 80% of the time.

And I am uncertain about use. The more I learn about the things that can hurt people, the less certain I get about things. Hence the ‘any helps’ thing in the

That theory is absolutely preposterous, stupid and all kinds of awesome.

“You’ve seen my lifecorder footage,” explained T'reka for what felt like the umpteenth time. At least, this time, she was conversing with a fellow scientist. “You were on shift

I just saw a SciFi film called "The Machine"

uuuUUUUuuuuuUUUuuuuurrrrrRRRRrrrrRRrrrrrrrgggGghhhhHHhhhh…

  • Three, technically four ladies on the screen and not once do they exchange a single line

  • ONE character who’s POC, and he’s represented as unsympathetic!evil and still white enough to keep the cast relatively homogenous

  • No brown people, just in case I didn’t make it obvious

  • HEAVY infantalisation of the main lady

  • Mixed with equally heavy sexualisation [euw]

  • Including a scene that made my skin crawl from the pedo/rapey overtones

  • Not one,
