Make me a vegan diet plan for 2 weeks. And if I like it, I’ll actually try it.
But it’s not so simple. See, I’m poor. And by poor, I mean, your meal plan can’t cost me more than $30 for 2 weeks (and I mean not a cent more).
And I live in the northeast by...

I always forget how fucking quickly I get burned out on tumblr, until I wake up one day and the thought of reading everything you all post makes me cry. And then I act like an adult and just DO NOT CHECK TUMBLR FOR A WHILE
and I am better again
and back
for at least two hours before I get burnt out again because I haven’t actually given myself enough time to get over it.

I suppose it’s like that iconic photograph of the Kent State shootings, an anti-Vietnam War protest where the National Guard opened fire and killed unarmed students.

Dear OWS: The police state has been around longer...
malheureuxmarxist:
The police state has been around longer than you, because the US has been a settler-colonial project since the very beginning. It was designed to keep the internal colonies of the United States contained, dominated, and exploited.
the police brutality against the occupations has been pretty minor compared to the brutal, systemic violence of the colonial occupations of black...

[Content warning: mental illness, ableism,... →
I get pretty pissy about glamorization of mental illness, which takes a lot of forms. As a creative professional, I often encounter the idea, for example, that mental illness makes people creative. In fact, I was struggling to work over the last few months, was doubting my ability to continue working, and getting on medication has helped me focus and tighten my work.
Or I encounter depictions...

"I Fried Another Nigger"
nerdstradamas:
“I fried another nigger,” was a quote from NYPD officer Michael Daragjati. When incidents such as these surface - and they surface quite regularly, I might like to add - it’s astonishing when people like Glenn Beck claim racism is nonexistent.
I am a bit fearful of having a son one day. Despite how productive of a citizen he may be, a portion of society will reduce him to nothing...

A woman in NY has been charged with self-abortion →
stfuconservatives:
The police said Thursday that they had charged Yaribely Almonte, 20, who had lived in the building, with self-abortion in the first degree, a misdemeanor charge that has been used only a few times in New York State. Although it was unclear how old the fetus was, the charge applies when the abortion occurs after 24 weeks of pregnancy, when it is legal only if a woman’s...

I’ve seen a lot of posts talking about OWS, police brutality, race, gender, & intersectionality. Many of those posts include links to the famous stories of police brutality. And those stories are important & should be told. But, by only talking about those stories I worry that we’re giving the impression that police brutality is relatively rare in communities of color. I’ve...

friendlyangryfeminist:
It’s a privilege that Black people have never had. It’s a privilege Latin@ people have never had.
The police have always been aggressive to PoC, to queer people, to low-income people, to women.
The fact that it’s taken this long for privileged white men to realize that the police are enforcing the will of an unjust society just shows how ignorant some people can be.
