Seriously. Why Do We Idolize People Who Suck The Money Up From The Poor?

Junji Ito making manga about cats is just a wonderful thing, honestly.

junji itō was so right when he said this

Tardigrades are already cool; it’s neat to get human insight out of them.

The word Eskimo is an offensive term that has been used historically to describe the Inuit throughout their homeland, Inuit Nunangat, in the arctic regions of Alaska, Greenland and Canada, as well as the Yupik of Alaska and northeastern Russia, and the Inupiat of Alaska. Strictly speaking, eskimos can also be regarded as native Americans, because what western people call ‘eskimos’ are actually the indigenous people inhabiting parts of the northern circumpolar region ranging from Siberia to parts of the Americas (Alaska and Canada). The native people of the northern polarcircle do not actually call themselves ‘Eskimos’; this is a term given to them by European settlers. The term Eskimo is regarded by many as a derogative term because it is used to describe a very large group of people with different traits and languages. Furthermore, if translated into Alonquin laguage (spoken by indigenous people in Ontario and Quebec, Canada), ‘Eskimo’ means: ‘eaters of raw meat’. Obviously, eating raw meat is not the one thing that defines the Inuit people of Canada, or ‘Inuk’ if referring to a single person of Inuit descent.

Can't argue that. It's a banger. (Also, check out their cover of I Wanna Be/1000 Miles. It's great!)

I can never watch Rocky Horror because they don't use the (superior, imo) Me First and the Gimme Gimmes version of Science Fiction Double Feature

Unfortunately true. We can't let the perfect be the enemy of the good, as painful as it can be.

But we also can't stop pushing. Don't be satisfied with just small victories. Keep going!

I think more leftists need to recognize the gap between “this should happen eventually” and “this would be feasible to achieve in the near future”

Like, I’m an anarchist. And I think an ideal world would have no nation states or borders. But that’s not going to happen tomorrow, or next year, or for a long time

So while I wait, instead of endlessly hemming and hawing over what the would should look like, I try to focus on what I can do right now to improve the world in material ways and to lessen the suffering of others

I already knew that they were older than trees, but...

As above, but, I mean, it's happened to me a few times.

Reblog if you’d be okay if your friend came out as transgender

She chose to be a horrible person. That's all there is to it. Done with her.

Hey, has anybody read The Worst Witch? it's a great YA series about a clumsy but earnest witch at a witch school, with broomstick-riding and cursing and potion classes and everything!

I mean, it cost me ten seconds and nothing else, so now, maybe I'll find out if anyone else reports it working.

good things will happen 🧿

things that are meant to be will fall into place 🧿
