If we can say Denali instead of Mt. McKinley then we can say Lawetlat'la instead of Mt. St Helens. The mountain is named Tahoma, not Rainier. Naming a mountain after Jefferson doesn’t erase its true name of Seekseekqua.
One name tells of the thousand years indigenous history and culture of the tribes who live there. The other name tells me nothing but colonialism.
My favourite thing about the latest Twitter meltdown is all the artists reanimating their dead Tumblr accounts today and immediately being greeted with hundreds of notes because even a Tumblr account they literally have not posted to in 3–5 years has more active and engaged followers than the Twitter account that they’ve been updating daily.
tiktokers who say classic lit is bad because its not relatable 1. thats not the fucking point 2. you’ve clearly never read twelfth night as a trans bisexual
you’ve clearly never read Frankenstein as a student
If you’re fucked up enough a lot of classic lit suddenly becomes uncomfortably relatable tbh.
This is 100% true, but also: literature is a great way to engage with people you don’t actually relate to, and practice feeling empathy for them anyway. I have never been in a battle, but I have cried over the Iliad multiple times because I was suddenly made very aware that every single war has people like Hector in it, who leave their families one day and just never come home to them. Please keep looking for things you find relatable in unexpected places - but not everything has to be relatable for it to be worthwhile.
Not everything has to be about you to be worth reading
this is probably the only sex gif i will every reblog, because for some reason i feel like it’s more than just sex. i don’t know if it’s how they’re actually looking at one another or the way they can’t get close enough. he’s actually looking at her like a person and not just a sex object.
but then again, it could be all in my head. i mean, this is how i would want it to be. but that’s just me
Digital illustration of a large group of disabled people of different ethnicities, ages, and genders. Among the crowd are service and emotional support animals. There’s two smaller protest signs that read, ‘I shouldn’t lose benefits when I get married.’ And ‘ban subminimum wage’ the main sign reads, ‘disabled people are expert of their own lives and know what they need.’
i just dont think people who werent into spn like pre 2016 at least can understand the nature of the relationship fans have with misha collins. yes i know hes obnoxious and very much an irritating liberal and hes a bit of a quirky tryhard. But you have to understand. they hate us still ok but they HATED us back in the day and by us i mean gay little fans of the show. So yes i will mock the man. i do not have to respect him. but when he says Also, Cas is gay. well. im saluting. we’re veterans of the same war he got in trenches when he didnt have to and for that i can never fully reject him
