First, If you didn’t cry at the end of My Girl, you are a psychopath. There are no exceptions.
The rest of mine are from HBO, If you want to see which tv character deaths made me cry, click the show more. (Spoilers, duh)

It’s not TV, it’s the gut-wrenching deaths of your favorite characters that will haunt you for eternity brought to you by HBO.
Reblog if you've ever cried over the death of a fictional character

When I ask how you are, I mean it.
I feel privileged when people feel comfortable enough to confide in me.
I try to create that space by being vulnerable myself.

Ironically, lots of tech bros I know have Liberal Arts degrees. I worked with at least two guys with philosophy degrees that currently develop software for self driving cars.
It takes critical thinking and problem solving skills to build things.
It’s the difference between knowing how to construct a grammatically correct sentence and how to write a book.
After all, math is just logic with numbers.
The mascot for my Liberal Arts college?
We didn’t have grades or computer science degrees but our mascot is the intersection between math and philosophy.
The Empty Set

As for me, I’m a data scientist with a Liberal Arts degree.

It's a lot healthier to go for a daily walk than to sign up for a gym membership you won't be using because you hate that kind of exercise. It's a lot healthier to eat a frozen meal than to skip a meal because you were too tired to cook something healthy. It's a lot healthier to take a quick shower than to procrastinate an elaborate routine for days. Don't aim so high that you won't be hitting anything!

"The Don't Say Gay Law has been cut down to size in more ways than this.
- LGBTQ+ students and staff may now be protected by anti-bullying and anti-discrimination measures
- Libraries are free to restock LGBTQ+ books
- LGBTQ+ topics may be discussed freely
GO CRY IN A CORNER RON
Florida teachers can discuss sexual orientation and gender ID under ‘Don’t Say Gay’ bill settlement

Even in queer spaces I have to actively remind people to add 2 spirit to the acronym.
It’s LGBTQIA2S+
Here’s a 2 Spirit pride flag from Tulsa Flash Print Pride.

why is no one talking about the fact that nex benedict is indigenous?
they are choctaw.
native women and two-spirits are at the highest risk of sexual assault and domestic violence of any group. natives as a whole are at the highest risk for suicide. natives are also tied with Black americans for risk of being killed, both by police and by others.
it's critical to note that more than 90% of violence done against natives is committed by non-natives. this is a colonial issue, it's a genocide issue, it's an anti-indigenous issue.
when it comes to indians, our intersectional identities are often erased in favor of more visible or mainstream marginalizations like sex and gender.
this same thing happened when ezra miller kidnapped an indigenous teen. it happened when a nurse assaulted a native coma patient and she became pregnant and gave birth in her hospital bed. our indigenous identity is barely mentioned, despite this being a multinational crisis.
please learn more about the Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women (MMIW) movement here, here, and here
and please spread the word about this
don't let native people disappear in this conversation. nex's death is national news and they should be remembered for all that they are.

Regarding Land Acknowledgements
If you’re going to do a land acknowledgment, it should be followed up with donations to a Tribal Council or Native American advocacy organization.
Saying you’re on colonized land while doing nothing to meaningfully contribute to the welfare of the colonized is no different than how we derive the names of US states and counties from their Indigenous language origins.
Just saying words is a form of colonialism. You’re tokenizing Indigenous people for performative activism.
Less talk, more activism.

This decision is bad enough on its own but the rationale for the decision is unconstitutional.
In a concurring opinion, the chief justice of the court writes, “human life cannot be wrongfully destroyed without incurring the wrath of a holy God, who views the destruction of His image as an affront to Himself.”
Laws cannot be based on someone’s sky daddy.
Not my club, not my rules.

True confession: I wrote Juliet’s soliloquy on my adolescent bedroom wall, in glow in the dark puffy paint no less. I had it memorized; like the 14 year old girl that I was.
As an aside, that paint never came off, sanding, painting over it, even paint thinner, and it’s still written on that wall.

To add to this, don’t do a protest vote by choosing a third party candidate.
Been there done that. Have the Nader 2000 tshirt to prove it.
Go ask Iraqis how well that worked out for them.
“no matter how badly you think you’re doing it, someone else has done it a lot worse and been fine” is applicable to a wide, wide range of things and i say it to myself all the time

Along this line of thinking Donald Trump is proof you should always try for the job you want.
