I’m sure everyone is sick of seeing political posts, this isn’t political, it’s a humanitarian crisis! And it’s not only happening “somewhere else” anymore!

Armenians are being attacked in the streets of my country!!Why is there not national outrage, or a movement rising up?? Where is anyone outside of the Armenian population screaming for equality? A genocide is literally taking place RIGHT NOW but you all would rather get upset and put your energy into candidates who are literally doing nothing of substance to help this situation while schools, hospitals and civilian homes are destroyed.

In 1915 no one cared about Armenia either, they watched as these same instigators marched women, children and elderly out into the desert with the sole intention of none of them making it back home, this is after murdering the men and those strong enough to fight back in front of their families. The term genocide was coined solely because of this tragedy! An entire culture almost wiped from the planet, and people still say we are overreacting!

Don’t allow this to happen again, don’t be someone who sits back as an entire country and culture are facing the threat of a SECOND GENOCIDE!!!! Please, wake up, do something, spread the news, because it could be me or my family being targeted tomorrow.

reminder that biden wants to:

raise the minimum wage to $15 an hour

scrap past marijuana convictions

make college free for two years

increase the pay for teachers, particularly in underfunded schools

significantly increase taxes on the rich (both direct wealth taxes along with additional taxes on major corporations)

have universal background checks for firearm purchases

get us back into the paris agreement in order to switch to clean energy by 2035 (and his plan has been outlined already and the first few steps have been specified)

end the cocaine sentencing disparity (as it is deeply racist)

abolish the death penalty

support a government mandated 12 weeks of paid family leave for workers

eliminate private prisons

this man fully acknowledges the science behind climate change (unlike trump), wants to work to fix certain racist elements in american society (unlike trump), supports the lower and middle classes (unlike trump), is willing to put his money where his mouth is (unlike trump), and isn’t a full on fascist that ignores the global pandemic and takes the side of neo-nazis and white supremacists (unlike trump). biden is miles better than trump. is he the ideal candidate? no, but he is willing to work towards making the USA a more progressive place and that is the first step we need to take. vote blue.

The story of a coward in three parts.

romance is a form of creativity. it is the ability to see the potential for beauty in the everyday. freezing flowers in ice so they release floral notes as they melt; learning to draw; taking the scenic way--these acts ask us to leave behind the pragmatic and pay attention to the fanciful, the sensory. in a world devoted to efficiency and productivity, living with romance is a way of reclaiming ones own life. it is a way of saying: being alive is worthwhile for its own sake because i make it so.

I live for hope I guess. I've seen my life unexpectedly change for the worse, and unexpectedly change for the better. Having been in spots where I just Could Not imagine how I could make my life better, I realized my imagination is just limited, especially when I'm depressed and in the worst of it.

The dude that was doing my intake for therapy asked me what i lived for and I genuinely didnt have an answer

You can rb this and say what u guys live for cause i have no idea lmao

what people think gift giving as a love language means: *spending an excessive amount of money on materialistic gifts for people during the holidays*

what gift giving as a love language actually means: “i picked up this cool rock that i found on the ground that reminded me of you” or “i bought you this necklace for 50 cents at a yard sale cause i thought you’d like it” or even “i’ve had this thing since childhood but i feel like it could be of some use to you or give you comfort so i want you to have it”

My feed is currently exploding with the fact that Biden picked Kamala Harris as his veep. I would like to remind my friends of the following points:

1) She's a cop, and we're allowed to be unhappy. We're allowed to be mad, even.

2) We are not just voting for the Presidency. We are also voting for Ruth Bader Ginsburg's replacement. And a lot of other stuff, but let RBG retire or die secure in the knowledge that doing so will not fuck over this country.

3) "Kamala Harris is a cop and ACAB" and "Kamala Harris's nomination represents a number of important firsts in the field of politics" are both solid takes that do not cancel one another out and in fact coexist because we do not live in a magic Star Wars world where we have just have the Light Side and Dark Side.

4) The immigrants currently being held in cages and doused with weapons-grade disinfectant by our own government will not appreciate the subtleties of our political choices if we elect Trump for a second term through our inaction or dithering. For that matter, the people dying of COVID because Trump gutted the pandemic response team and then mishandled our response to the virus will not appreciate them. Because they're dying or dead. Because we couldn't get our shit together four years ago. My own mother may be one of these people. I'll never know for sure.

You're all adults, and I'm not here to tell you what to do. I will, however, share what I'm going to do: I will vote for Biden and his cop sidekick in November. And then if Trump gets a second term anyway, I'm arming myself and getting my ducks in order to go underground, because my Jewish wife and I are not going into the gas chambers quietly.

These pictures are what happened in poland following the arrest of Margot from anarcho queer collective @stopbzdurom (on ig) translated to “stop bullshit” for fighting homophobic and pro life propaganda in Poland.

For context: After the Re-Election of Andrzej Duda, from the conservative, corrupt, nationalist party PiS, who made his whole campaign about fighting LGBT “ideology” and dehumanising lgbt people in poland, things have quickly become worse than ever for us here. Its not unusual to see trucks with anti lgbt and pro life propaganda on them, calling gay people p*dophiles who want to adopt children to r*pe them. Me and my girlfriend stumbled into an anti gay protest like that in Kraków a month ago, one of polands most progressive cities. The protest was backed and protected by a police car and the protestors were holding a banner calling LGBT people pedophiles. Margots organisation was fighting these state backed initiatives by destroying public propaganda, organising lgbt dance events in places of white nationalist rallies and organising anti homophobic protests.

After Margots organisation destroyed pro life propaganda in Warsaw a few months back, she got arrested for the first time, taken from her house by undercover police men into an unregistered police car, without shoes or clothes. Nobody knew where she was for a few days and there was no information about her. She got found through a big social media action.

You may have seen the pictures of religious and significant statues in warsaw being clad with pride flags on social media, this was margots initiative. This is why she has been arrested again.

Margot is facing 2 months arrest in a polish men’s prison, which could mean death and hard physical abuse to her. All of that for hanging gay pride flags in public places. This is a textbook political arrest. Lawyers and politicians from leftist parties have been trying to help her, but the police wont let them reach her. The polish prime minister is on twitter saying she deserves this for “the profanation of national and religious symbols”.

Please spread this throughout social media and dont let it go unheard. Public outrage is the only way we can free her and fight polish governments political repression of anyone disagreeing with the current regime and real time descent into a dictatorship. Public outrage and bad press for poland is the only thing the government is afraid of.

If youre in Poland, join todays protest in Warsaw (plac Defilad) at 18:30 in solidarity with Margot.

follow and support her collectives page on instagram @stopbzdurom and follow @grupastonewall for updates on her situation and protests.

Hey! Im from Hawaii, and That Mark Z/uckerberg thing really hasn’t been a problem for a while. Thanks for caring about us though! If you want to talk about more recent Hawaii issues, the state government is planning to bulldoze Sherwood Forest, and native Hawaiians advocates really haven’t liked it. There are gravesites on that land, turning it into a park just isn’t right.

thanks!

petition to stop it:
