the reason people get tired of educating, explaining, reasoning, sounding out
is that it just never ends
and its the same shit over and over again
people just continually fuck your shit up
and you have to smile and grit your teeth and go, ‘yo thats actually fucked, please don’t do it’
and when people you like and admire do it
do and say the same stuff you are forced to devote your energy to fighting
its like being kicked in the teeth
this is why people have flash temper reactions to bullshit, even if it was done without malicious intent
a thousand micro aggressions building up over your life
‘why are you so angry’ ‘why can’t you just explain it calmly’
maybe its because it never ever ends
and you explain it to one person and they get it and you feel good, because thank fuck, someone listened! someone grew! someone changed! someone genuinely meant it when they said sorry
turn around
and there are more people doing the same thing
what are you supposed to do
what are you supposed to do, other then scream
okay but i need to reblog this once more because this is literally the truest shit in the whole world
ignite the night with passionate fire
Let me explain you a thing
These are my legs
But sometimes these are my legs, and that is okay
but when you use these
To move this
Without my permission, apparently you don’t understand that is like picking someone up and carrying them
because you are moving my legs
without my permission, and that is not okay.
Do we all understand now?
THIS. A MILLION TIMES, THIS.
no words can describe how much i idolise this girl
she’s my world
Mad respect for Demi for realizing that she is worth the time and effort to get well as well as in a position to be a role model.
Christian Louboutin puts out a line an ad campaign that acknowledges that “nude” isn’t another word for “light beige.” I don’t like nude shoes, I prefer statement footwear, but it’s good to see big names acknowledging that we come in a beautiful range of colors. And then arranging us in terrifying circles.
While I cannot afford his shoes at all, I like this campaign idea. Because I cannot express how much I TIRE of “nude” and “flesh toned” and “neutral” marketing. Just the other day at a department store the White bra saleswoman asked me do I want a “nude” bra. For what ma’am? When I said “it doesn’t match my skin” she stood there stunned. As if she never considered this before.
The normalcy and power of whiteness summarized in one fashion statement. -paradelle
team: Miley I Love How Confident You Are And I Totally Support Your Do-Wutteva-You-Want New Vibe And I Couldn’t Give A Shit About People Thinking You Are Inappropriately Sexual Or Any Other Slut Shamey Bullshit But You’ve Also Crossed A Line Concerning Racism And Cultural Appropriation and Exploitation Of Black Culture And It Feels Like You Don’t Even Care
why is it that people can’t understand that you can be critical of something but still enjoy it? being able to have a critical mind and recognize that good things can have problems is a great life skill!! don’t assume someone hates something because they don’t like a few things about it~
just so we’re clear:
- getting called out for doing something shitty is not the same as “getting hate”
- if someone is telling you that you did something shitty, they are not criticizing you as a person
- messing up does not make you an irredeemably awful human being
- but how you respond to criticism can be a pretty good indicator of your awfulness
I hate school.
But I don’t hate education.
There’s a huge difference.
