According to the song Seasons of Love from RENT, there are 525,600 minutes a year.

One line later, there are “525,000 Moments so dear”.

So, doing the math, we can glean that there are 600 moments which aren’t so dear.

And I think I just used one of them by walking in on my boss who forgot to lock the bathroom stall.

this post did not even remotely go in the direction I was expecting it to

even if Trump backs down on his more batshit policies he still:

• has a violently homophobic vp
  
• has an entire cabinet full of fascist, authoritarian actual politicians 
  
• best case scenario will be used as a puppet for a Republican House and Senate
  
• ran a campaign on white nationalism and popularized these ideas in modern-day American culture, resulting in many hatecrimes already and more to come
  
• fucked us all over
• will not be forgiven for it

Yeah our house is on fire but have we considered giving the fire a chance and seeing what it does first before we put it out?

Before we call 911 I want the wood floor to apologize for being so flammable and let the healing begin because it really hurts the arsonist when you call him an arsonist.

Look, I know none of us wanted this fire in the first place, but it’s here now, so can we please just try and make the best of it and be respectful?

Don’t try to put a fire out that makes you as bad as the fire

have you tried hugging the fire?

Try to see the fires point of view

well, a lot of arsonists with second homes felt their needs were being neglected. that’s why they set the one house you have on fire.. but now is not the time to point fingers.

Anthropology pro tip: whenever a source describes a luridly horrible practice protected by a culture of absolute secrecy, nine times out of ten what that means is that the researcher in question pulled the practice out of his ass, willfully misinterpreted the alleged practitioners’ utter bafflement at his strange questions as secretiveness, and eventually got kicked out for being a weirdo.

Also, educated liberals can’t even figure out how to persuade other educated liberals to vaccinate their kids, so this idea that Democrats are gonna build a bridge out of empathy and communication with people who *don’t want to listen and have none*…y'all.

You don’t logic neo-Nazis. You fight them. I’m sorry if that’s not gentle enough for you but this isn’t a gentle time. Resist. Fight. That’s the deal.

When you struggle with your mental health on a daily basis, it can be hard to take action on the things that matter most to you. The mental barriers anxiety creates often appear insurmountable. But sometimes, when you really need to, you can break those barriers down. This week, with encouragement from some great people on the internet, I pushed against my anxiety and made some calls to members of our government. Here’s a comic about how you can do that, too. (Resources and transcript below.)

Motivational resources:
There are a lot! Here are a few I really like:

• Emily Ellsworth explains why calling is the most effective way to reach your congressperson.
• Sharon Wong posted a great series of tweets that helped me manage my phone anxiety and make some calls.
  
• Kelsey is tweeting pretty much daily with advice and reminders about calling representatives. I found this tweet an especially great reminder that calls aren’t nearly as big a deal as anxiety makes them out to be.

Informational resources:
There are a lot of these, as well! These three are good places to start:

• Find your representative at house.gov
  
• Find your senators at senate.gov
  
• Use the “We’re His Problem Now” scripts when calling (or write your own!)

Someone just asked me for a source on “women have vivid internal lives that do not rely on men”. Buddy, if you need an academic source for that, that’s your problem right there.

THE most underrated scene in the entire movie. It was perfect. And do you know how often I see gif sets of it? This is the second one I’ve seen since the movie came out (It’s been over 5 months, now).

So let’s just pause for a moment from reblogging gifs of Tony’s sass, Loki’s sex appeal, or Bruce’s fluffiness and just appreciate this nameless, old, German guy and how, even though he knew he would probably die, he stood up to a tyrant to prove that the human race wouldn’t give up their freedom so easily.

Friendly reminder that it’s implied that he’s a Holocaust survivor.

For those who do not know. Green Day’s “NO TRUMP, NO KKK, NO FASCIST USA” is a reference to the line “NO WAR, NO KKK, NO FASCIST USA” line from MDC’s song Born to Die from 1982. It includes lines like “A racist dream, a world of hate with no regret a Nazi state” before the quoted line. 

Shout out to Green Day for both referencing their forefathers of angry political punk and for calling out shit dick elect Donald Trump on national TV.

Lucy Knisley:  “ I made myself a few little calling cards to put up on my bulletin board, to remind me to make these calls as often as possible. They’re available for your use, to print out and fill in your own senators or congresspeople, and to address the causes that mean the most to you.  Here’s an example of one of mine in use:

Each card fits on a quarter of 8.5/11inch paper (as below), so you can print out four at a time for your use. I’m hoping to add more cards as I go, but please feel free in the meantime to use the blank cards to address the other important causes. For references for numbers and scripts, this is an excellent resource. Good luck!”

if you dont have me on facebook you are probably not missing out on any posts but the comment section is important too lmao

I went to the Renaissance faire dressed as a warrior.  I had a real sword with me, too.  I was standing (in character) next to a sword-fighting ring, where kids of all ages got the chance to pick up a sword and challenge the champion.  Some woman walks by, with her little girl.  The girl starts walking towards the ring, saying she wants to fight.  But the mom pulled her away hella sharply, and was like, “That’s for boys.”  You don’t want to be a BOY, do you?”    And the girl looked around and saw me.  I think she thought I was a boy; I had my hair in a ponytail, and was wearing a hood.  So she comes up to me and asks me, “Do you think girls can be fighters, too?”  And her mom looks like she’s silently gloating.  Like she thinks I’m going to say no.  So I take off my hood, untie my hair so that it flows freely, and kneel before her.  And I’m like, “Milady, anyone can be a fighter.”  I swear, the look on that mother’s face made my day.

This post was good but then it got better

Okay, this is a slight topic diversion, but in response to the above comment. I’ve volunteered at the CT Ren Faire for years now. For the last 5 or so I’ve worked in the game section, and we have a game similar to the above comment called “Smite the Knight”. I’ve been in the ring before, it’s a ton of fun getting to run around with the kids. The main goal is entertainment. Have a good shtick, keep the crowd engaged, and let the kids have a good time.

In both work and observing, I have learned something about kids. A lot of parents try to get their boys to go fight. Of the young ones that do, they tend to be shy. You get the ones who just swing the boffer swords around with no regard for life, but, mostly, they’re reserved. It’s adorable. I mean, they’re kids.

But the girls. THE GIRLS. Holy crap. I swear, the pinker the dress, the more taffeta and glitter…the more intensity. I remember, the first year I worked there, one girl came in, grabbed the biggest sword she could, and WENT TO TOWN on our knight. Lifted it over head, let out this primal scream and mowed him down. Homeboy is 6′2″, she was FIVE. And once he was in the fetal position (He was fine. It was for show.) on the ground, she stopped, put her foot on his chest, and yelled “I AM A FIERCE PRINCESS!!”. Later in the day when she walked by a couple of us yelled “Ah! It’s the fierce princess!” and she stopped and flexed. It was the best, and I will never forget that girl.

OH MY GOD IT’S BACK YES

The last story reminds me of @seananmcguire, every time.

Sometimes worldbuilding is “this is how the dread armies are affecting agricultural output in this region, and the changing influence of the different gods as farmers see their crops collapse, and the erosion caused by fewer crops is turning the river silty and hard to navigate, causing difficulties in trade that would have alleviated the effects of the famine" 

 And sometimes worldbuilding is “the guards here are mostly lightning wizards because imagine how fucking sick it would be to have a bunch of guards shooting lighting down from the battlements. Badass.”
