Before authorizing the purchase of a doomsday device, we make all customers submit a lengthly essay about how they will ensure no pets are harmed.

This is a good policy. After all, we’re evil, not assholes.

ThePrettiestOne

I have never in my life felt such an urge to lift a VP up off the floor, sling him over my shoulder, and rock him, telling him "It's OK, it's OK."

Joe Biden crashed a college party in this new #ItsOnUs PSA explaining why sexual assault is *everyone’s* problem

Could vice president (and part-time TV actor) Joe Biden sneak into a college party in real life? Judging by a new Funny or Die video, he totally could.

Wil, since you seem keen to promote voting reminders, can I just say: HOW MUCH Trump loses by will make a huge difference to the future of the United States. If he loses by a small margin, the GOP might take away the lesson that the dog-whistle racist politics still work, they just need a stabler candidate. If he loses by a wide margin they will distance themselves from everything he did, which is better for everyone! vote. Vote. VOTE!

I’ve been saying this, but not recently: Trump needs to lose, and he needs to lose by a lot, so that it’s a clear and unambiguous repudiation of him and everything he stands for. 

Because if we don’t do that, 2020 will see someone almost exactly like him (if not him again) who just has better message discipline with the same vile beliefs. In fact, just look at Pence.

I know there are lots of posts out there about how being an adult is scary and terrible, but tonight I am eating tacos and watching Star Trek in bed while talking to one of my best friends on hangouts and trying to convince my cat that feet are friends not food. There’s nobody here to tell me to do anything different, and I don’t wanna and I’m not going to. Sometimes it’s pretty okay.

Many bats are helpful little insect eaters. The Little Brown Myotis (or Little Brown Bat) and other species are at risk from a disease called White Nose Syndrome. Pumpkin spice isn’t a cure, but maybe it helps just a little.

notheavynly:

listen I love those ‘imagine Padmé giving birth during the Clone Wars aus’ but instead of the Jedi Council just being okay with it for no real logical reason other than ‘we need general Skywalker because he’s the chosen one’ please imagine Padmé and Anakin still trying to keep their relationship a secret even when it starts getting ridiculous.

Obi-Wan: Anakin why do Senator Amidala’s children look like you?
Anakin: The Force is my father so maybe it bullshitted them some genes too.

Mace: Anakin why did you move into Senator Amidala’s home?
Anakin: What? She needed help raising the twins. I’m just being helpful.

Rex: Umm General Skywalker? Why is there a baby strapped to your chest?
Anakin: Luke is sick and Senator Amidala didn’t want Leia to catch it. I’m babysitting.

Ahsoka: Master, we’re on a mission. Why are we stopping to buy toys for the Senator’s children?
Anakin: Listen Ahsoka, Luke and Leia will love this.

Everyone who knows Anakin and Padmé: Look Anakin, we know you’re the father.
Anakin: *snuggled up to Padmé and they both have a sleeping baby in their arms* I have no idea what you’re talking about.

Kitten Rescued From Hurricane Matthew Gets Tiny Sock Sweater And Finds New Home

by James Gould-Bourn

A customer in Petsmart in Northwest Raleigh, North Carolina couldn’t help but share this tweet of an adorable kitten in a sock sweater recently, and it’s easy to see why when you look at the picture.


Show Full Text

“I’m at petco and THEY FOUND A KITTEN IN THE STORM AND PUT HER IN A LITTLE SWEATER,” she wrote in her tweet that’s since been shared almost 64k times and liked by more than 113k people. The kitten had been rescued from Hurricane Matthew and the customer, known as Sarah, noticed it after she overheard a family talking to a vet assistant about looking for a new cat. The assistant brought out a tiny baby tabby wrapped up in a little sock sweater to keep her warm, and it was clearly love at first sight for the family who immediately decided to adopt the kitten.

ThePrettiestOne

Remember, it's vital that you spend as much time as possible directly between your attacker and your guard.
Also, make sure to stop at random places for no particular reason when you're supposed to be following you protector. It's not fun for him if he doesn't have to run back to get you every three miles.

crazy-ideas:

A new video game where you play someone with no skills and no weapons. The object is to get killed as fast as possible while a heavily armed badass tries to protect you. Call it “Escort Mission”

beka-tiddalik:

illuminice:

if anyone ever tells you that english isn’t ridiculous remember that the reason why we have a silent b in debt is because a group of guys got together to standardise english spelling and got to the word debt, which at the time was primarily spelled either ‘dett’ or ‘det’. so they basically went:

‘everyone speaks latin, right? so let’s put a silent b in debt. like debitum, which is latin for debt. problem solved.’

also the reason why there is a h in ghost is because when the printing press first came to england the only people trained to operate it were flemmish speaking, and they put a h after g because that’s what you do in flemmish. they put shit like ghirl and ghoose, but the only reason why ghost stuck is because people saw ‘the holy ghost’ in the bible and were like ‘well, that MUST be right’.

so yeah english is a really stupid language with some of the most ridiculous spelling

Anyone telling you that English isn’t a bullshit Frankenstein language is lying.

The Panthers used to ride around and follow the police.

So the cops would pull over some sorry black person, and get ready to rough him up, but then there were the Panthers right behind them. Watching, armed to the teeth, and citing legal statutes. It’s inspirational.

Bring it back.

Bring this back.

For real.

That’s why the FBI broke them up, isn’t it ?

That among other community initiatives. They had weapons training, self defense, their free breakfast program and ran a newspaper. They raised money to pay for bail and legal funding for people. And they used to notify the community of their rights and encourage people to know the laws and protest the one which were unjust. That type of shit irked the local police and damned sure struck a nerve with the FBI. They were taking back the streets and providing the protection the police were never interested in bringing to their neighborhoods from the very start. So it’s always fuck the FBI for me.

Also let’s be starkly clear about this: under COINTELPRO the FBI raided the homes of Black Panthers and outright murdered them. They conspired with local police forces to harass, assault, and concoct false evidence against anybody affiliated with the BPP. And they didn’t keep their operations confined to the black community directly. When a white woman working in civil rights was killed by the KKK (they were aiming at her black passenger) the FBI excused the KKK by claiming that she was a communist and slept with black men. They refused to accept the reports of white agents who said that the BPP were no threat and demanded that the agents falsify information to paint the BPP as violent domestic terrorists. The FBI was determined to quash revolutionary black movements that were chiefly devoted to community protection and development and they stopped at nothing in their attempts to reach this goal.

One thing we don’t talk about even in our own retellings and reclaimings of BPP history is that a large part of the reason the government worked to break them up wasn’t because of armed action, but because they provided so many necessary social services and programs: free breakfast for children, walking the elderly to and from banks safely to cash their social security checks, free medical centers, door-to-door sickle cell testing, blood drives, raising money for bail, clothing donations, legal aide, busing people to and from prisons to visit, commissary for prisoners. Not only did they fight back against state violence in their confrontations with police, but also by resisting the forced conditions of poverty, criminality and scarcity created by the state to further destroy their communities. J. Edgar Hoover genuinely wrote in an FBI memo that:

“The Breakfast for Children Program B represents the best and most influential activity going for the BPP and, as such, is potentially the greatest threat to efforts by authorities B to neutralize the BPP and destroy what it stands for.”

When I need a good example of the antiblackness that is fundamental to this country’s history and how it persists even now, I remember that the BPP were viewed as a threat to national security, not because they were armed, but  because they wouldn’t allow black children to die from starvation and malnutrition. 

Desperate, hungry people are easier to control and keep subjugated.

Desperate, hungry people are more likely, in their desperation and hunger, to lash out at those closest to themselves rather than the more distant, often unseen causes of their misery. 

Desperate, hungry people are easier to keep turned against each other.

““Get a better job,” they said.
Suddenly, every custodian everywhere quits their job and gets a better one. Now, upon entering public restrooms, everyone is handed a spray bottle and toilet brush, because now they have to scrub their own shit out of that public porcelain throne. Women’s restrooms come complete with plastic bags, because they have to bring their soiled period products home with them and dispose of them at home, because there is no more public waste removal.
“Get a better job,” they said.
All fast food employees quit and find a “better job”. No more fast food places! There also aren’t any restaurants. Better learn to cook your own shitty garbage burgers. You have only yourself to yell at if you forget the cheese.
“Get a better job,” they said.
Retail stores no longer have any employees. All shopping must be done online, but you have to drive out and pick up the supplies yourself because the Fedex people quit and got better jobs, too.
“Just get a better job,” they said!
You now have to grow and make every single thing you ever consume for the rest of your life, because no one wants to do it for you at $7 an hour.
Fuck you.”

“The big lie about capitalism is that everyone can be rich. That’s impossible. Capitalism works only if the vast majority of the population are kept poor enough to never quit working, are kept poor enough to accept distasteful jobs society cannot function without. If everyone were a millionaire, who would empty the trash or repair the sewers? It follows that the poorer the general population is made, the greater the worth of the money held by the wealthy, in terms of the lives which may be bought and sold with it.” — Michael Rivero

I once found a bat in my kitchen. Like, not flying around or hanging upside down just chilling on the countertop. Had no fuckin idea what to do, so I opened some windows and went for a walk. When I came back, instead of a bat, $20 was on the counter.

i dont even know how to respond to this besides that this is one of the best paranormal experiences ive ever heard

talysia:

whatagrump:

g**psy is a slur. it’s a slur. it’s a slur, and on top of that it’s consistently attached to incredibly negative, straight up racist depictions of romani people. like, how is it 2016 and you’re still writing/drawing romani people exclusively as fortune tellers, pickpockets, witches, etc.? you’re doing tangible harm.

I am white, and we can do better.

I have heard a lot of people say that they’ve heard a Rromani individual say it was okay to use. I don’t agree. When one of us chooses not to stand with those who ask us to respect their identities, others will follow.

We can do better, and it starts with little things.

It’s not an attack. It’s the blue prints for being better.
