I hope “Split” flops

Why would you make such a movie on Dissociative Identity Disorder (DID)? 

You’re just playing up the skewed view that people who have DID are unstable and have some evil persona which plays more into mental illness being a bad thing. 

I implore any and everyone to avoid seeing “Split” and learn what DID really is.

Do you have a message for people who suffer with bipolar disorder?

Oh, yes. You can outlast anything. It’s complicated, it’s a job, but it’s doable. One of the greatest things that happened for me was that psychotic episode. Having survived it, I now know the difference between a problem and an inconvenience. Bipolar disorder can be a great teacher. It’s a challenge, but it can set you up to be able to do almost anything else in your life. - Carrie Fisher [x]

Police Snipers Shot an Unarmed 11 Year Old Girl at Standing Rock and Killed Her.

And yet none of the media outlets are covering this.

They also tased an elderly woman in the face, and she had a heart attack due to this and died.

They’ve also shot and killed some of the Natives horses.

A few politicians are talking about this on social media but I haven’t heard a word about this on mainstream news, not even from my local news.

Anonymous/Legion is now coming out and saying they will release documents on the governor, police and anyone involved in the harming of Natives, but I’m skeptical this will actually stop the pipeline.

Spread the fucking word. #NoDapl #ProtectSacredSites

If this doesn’t open up your eyes and show you that our government cares more about corporate agendas than the people in this country, I don’t know what will. #Hate it!

I find your use of the term Latino problematic. You should be using Latinx to describe groups of people or someone that you don't know the gender of.

Non Spanish speakers telling Spanish speaking people that their language is problematic based on their cultures construction of gender is the epitome of first world feminism. Latinx is a word invented by western, American born, Latinos to refer to themselves without having the implied connotation of gender. However, the entire Spanish language is gendered, which is why it doesn’t make much sense to most native speakers to even attempt to ungender the language since literally every single word is either male or female. Moreover, Latinx only sounds good if you say it in English, in Spanish it’s Latin-equis, since the Spanish X actually has more sounds than the English X, which further underscores how this is an English revision of a foreign language rather than a natural evolution of language by its native speakers. If people wanna say Latinx instead of Latino then that’s totally fine and good for them, but telling someone how they should speak their language is all kinds of ridiculous. The Spanish language does not need to evolve in order to express western ideas.

Basically, mind your own damn business

WHY THE DAKOTA ACCESS PIPELINE SUCKS AND WHAT YOU CAN DO ABOUT IT

AN OIL PIPELINE IS GOING TO POISON AN ENTIRE COMMUNITY:

A huge company is building an oil pipeline through the Missouri River. It’ll transport the dirtiest oil right through some of the cleanest water in the US. If there is a crack, leak, spill, any breakage, (which is super common) that oil will seep into the water and that water will become toxic.

The company that owns Sunoco just got their permit approved (btw Rick Perry is on their board of directors, in case that gives anyone else the fucking creeps). In response, a bunch of kids from Standing Rock Reservation physically ran across the country (1800 miles) in protest, carrying a petition w/ over 140,000 signatures, and met with the white house. NOW these kids, members of indigenous tribes around the nation, and their allies, are standing in front of massive equipment, using their bodies to stop construction and putting their lives on the line to protect this water.

WHY IT MATTERS:

When that water gets contaminated by oil, it will be poisoned, essentially deadly, within the hour. It’ll effect anyone in any community along the river or connecting rivers in North Dakota, South Dakota, Iowa, and Illinois. More people than we can fathom will lose access to clean water, and it’ll happen quickly. These kids are fighting for our access to clean water, too.

What happened in Flint could have been avoided if we had known about it. This time we have a shot.

10-year-old Newark boy was chased by the police and had guns drawn on him. Fortunately,he came home safe , but frightened to death and told his mother a story about his interaction with the police. In fact, he couldn’t even talk, he just cried, because he never experienced something like that and he knows for sure what happens with little black kids, who interact with the police, like Trayvon Martin and Tamir Rice…

Police needs to be held accountable for doing this to a kid.

i’m literally puking @ all the people who are writing about the Tongan flag bearer (WHICH BTW HE HAS A FUCKIN NAME AND IT’S PITA TAUFATOFUA) and saying, “i need to plan a trip to Tonga to find me a man like that immediately!” 

like y’all are so fuckin gross because literally that’s already something happening in Tonga. there is a weird influx of white men (AND WOMEN) who are like 40+ that hang out at shops to “pick up” young Tongan girls/boys to be their “island exotic warrior/princess” and it’s s fuckin sickening like y’all are really some sick fucks lmao 

ANYWAYS, go donate to his fundraiser because the poor guy is paying to be in the olympics out of pocket. he had no sponsors and therefore is relying on his own money, so please help him out!
