your intelligence means fucking nothing if youre devoid of empathy
Ocean’s Eight is like “heterosexuality? I don’t know her”
OK BUT WHY IS NO ONE TALKING ABOUT THE FACT THAT SANDRA BULLOCK CAN SPEAK A FEW WORDS GERMAN? No one takes a not at this and it drives me mad BC shsisbsj
Well, the thing is, Sandra Bullock is as German as it gets. She’s got German citizenship, because her mom was German. Actually, there’s a homage to her mother Helga in Ocean’s 8 when Debbie’s standing in front of Danny’s grave. You can see one tomb saying “Helga Meyer” The only thing that doesn’t fit is the birth date, but I think the day of her death is accurate. In Germany, children born to foreign parents were not allowed to hold two passports and were forced to choose one nationality over another between the ages of 18 and 23. That’s why Sandy had to reapply for a German passport, which she did in 2009 when law’s changed. Sandra doesn’t only speak a few words. Her German is fluent. She did a whole speech in German. She barely has an American accent. In fact, when she talks, she sounds exactly like someone raised in Southern Germany, as she speaks a Franconian dialect. It’s the purest thing ever, and I guess most people don’t talk about it, because they know all this.

“Oh, I got tied up on the subway…”

Carbon dioxide has only one atom more than carbon monoxide just in case you think breathing is harmless
gee who’d have thought that adderall, an amphetamine, is similar to methamphetamine.
bee tee dubs, vitaming B12 is literally cyanide.
nobody likes the “bad boys” who insult and degrade their partners while wearing pastel polos with popped collars, people like REAL bad boys who wear leather jackets and take a lot of care in how they shape their pompadour and carry around stiletto switchblades and care about their communities and ride a motorcycle and rebel against the government and says stuff like “NOBODY insults my gal” and gets in fistfights with dudes who catcall their girlfriends. THOSE bad boys are the guys everyone wants.
We want the boys society says are bad, not actually bad boys
Classic bad boys went against the mainstream masculine society of their time. They embraced attributes that were considered girly: longer hair, use of hair products, appreciation in their appearance, enjoyment of art and music. They rebelled against the notion that as soon as you left high school you needed to work a respectable job, get married, and have 2.5 children. They were bad because they didn’t follow what society said a man should be, and that’s why it was attractive
anyway black women are having miscarriages in Flint and there has yet to be an outrage from the “pro-life” community
can we call this a genocide yet?
keep in mind this is a MAN-MADE health crisis. they changed the water of a lower-income black community for a reason. 12 people have died so far because of the water and now the women are suffering from miscarriages. this story needs as much attention as possible. a black community is still being poisoned and pro-lifers don’t seem to give a shit
Just a note biphobia isn’t fucking tolerated on my blog.
Gay kids do not exist to teach homophobic parents the errors of their ways
Stop wishing gay kids on homophobes! 9 times outta 10 it will end in literal child abuse
why does nobody ever talk about how the belief of “romance is the top priority” is so toxic and dangerous? how it causes more harm than good?
this doesn’t even just affect aromantic people. this belief harms anyone and everyone.
there are people that literally believe their life has no point because they don’t have a significant other. there’s mentally ill/neurodivergent people that think they’re worthless and meaningless and disgusting because they can’t find someone who wants to date them, even if they’re showered with love from their friends and/or family. but the love only counts if it’s romantic, right?
society is constantly perpetuating the idea that you were born to find a romantic partner and that romance is the only way to be truly happy, and it’s so messed up. this completely disregards other great moments in life, like personal achievements that make you feel like you’re on top of the world and the things nobody glorifies simply because it’s not romance.
your pet(s) pulling a smile out of you every time you see them. having a deep, emotional talk with a friend and being reminded that someone cares about you. enjoying alone time with yourself. reaching a milestone or getting through a hard time. these things are so wonderful and amazing, but it’s not romance, so it doesn’t matter, right? it’s boring and insignificant.
and it really shows when questions like “do you have a boyfriend/girlfriend yet?” and “have you settled down with someone yet?” are asked. it shows how society thinks romance is the most important thing to experience in life. the “yet” implies that romance is a requirement, that you’ll have to find it eventually. but what if you don’t want to? if you simply aren’t interested in that stuff right now or if you won’t ever be interested?
romance is not everything. remember that. you were not born to “find someone” or to “have a soulmate”. you don’t need romance in your life for it to be a good one. you are allowed to not include it in your priorities. it doesn’t matter if nobody has a crush on you or wants to date you. it literally doesn’t matter. that has absolutely no importance to your worth as a human being. you were not brought into this world to impress and find a potential mate. you’re here to live and to do what makes you happy.
romance can be nice, but it is not everything. please, please remember that.
I need to hear that
