hey, in the wake of Squirrel Hill please remember that this isn’t just about gun control, but about antisemitism as well. gun control is important, but it’s not the reason this tragedy has happened. antisemitism has been on the rise in the united states for years, and no amount of gun control debate will stop that. take an active part in combating antisemitism when you see it, both in yourself and in others. keep an eye open, please, to prevent this from ever happening again
Nearly every fat girl I know has spent much of her life being treated like garbage at worst and an object at best. Yet I don’t know of a single fat girl who has shot up a school.
Preach
Never in my fucking life would I have EVER thought that shooting people would solve my bullying problem.
Bullying happens in every country in the world. School shootings happen in America. You know why? Because they have absolutely nothing to do with bullying and everything to do with entitlement. Straight white boys are the most entitled social group in the world, and when they don’t get their way, or are finally told no for the first time in their lives, they deem it “unfair” and seek revenge for being “wronged”. Make it easy for them to access guns, and people will die every. damn. time.
This is like a study in how many expressions three characters can cram into a frame. The last gif is the story an entire life lived in a moment. This gifset describes a heroic journey. Jonathan is briefly wildly excited by the statue’s feet before resigning himself to his fate. Ardeth’s instant transition from drama to annoyance when Rick lights a match on his beard is highly relatable. why did Rick stop the action just to strike a match on a friend’s rugged jaw. how fantastic are Ardeth’s robes. what are their faces doing in the last gif. is anyone in this film capable of doing anything at a normal level with any modicum of focus, or do they all stumble dramatically out of bed in the morning and pick a fight with the floor. Give me more disasters, that’s what I want. more relatable, distractible disasters. not a single one of them can focus on deadly dangers for more than a moment without being distracted by feet, jawlines, banter, books, swishing their clothes and grabbing each other. none of them can hold a torch properly.
Philando Castile was gunned down when he was legally carrying a firearm…
How is that story real?! Bringing guns to school?!
If you can afford to be silent about this, you have white privilege too. If you don’t call this racist bs out, you’re condoning it. PUBLICALLY condemn this girl and the inherent racism of this act.
ACTUALLY I’M GONNA REBLOG THIS A SECOND TIME because this is Kent State, guys. Kent State. The school where four students were shot to death in the 70′s for protesting war.
That Kent State.
This is unbelievable.
kent state student here. this moron is planning an open carry walk on campus on september 29, despite no longer being a student here. the university sent her a cease and desist letter because the event was not promoted by a student organization. now it is being promoted by a student organization: liberty hangout, which was founded by her boyfriend, who I believe still runs it. the university charged liberty hangout $14,300 to be able to do this, and somehow that was no barrier to her. fucking horseshit. fuck this girl, fuck her boyfriend, and fuck kent state for allowing her to do this
Kent pays a lot of lipservice to being progressive, but having worked there, I can tell you that it’s run by some fucked up people. Boycott them, go to school somewhere else.
you know what trope pisses me off the most? when the protag is pointing a gun at somebody and they’re like “you won’t do it. you’re too good” and the person holding the gun is like oh shit i am and they slowly lower the gun while the other person laughs. WHAT THE FUCK. if i were there, and somebody told me “you won’t do it” i would immediately shoot them dead without hesitating. who are you to tell me what i wont do. musty bitch
Keep in mind that there is almost always a third option, most especially when the person talking is vague about what, precisely, it is that you “won’t do.”
If it’s noodles, pour them on your sister instead of on her computer, or if the noodles are quite hot, pour them on her pillow or in a great spattering arc around her room.
If you have a supervillain at gunpoint and *they* say you’re “too good” and “won’t do it,” shoot them in the leg/foot or the shoulder. The former allows them to think they’re right while you lower the gun only to be confronted with sudden understanding and regret when you blow their metatarsals to kingdom come, while the latter is instant and avoids giving them even a moment’s satisfaction or any time to charge you while you’re lowering the gun to shoot them in the leg.
Door Number Three usually exists and is often your friend. Endeavor to cultivate awareness thereof.
Ethical dillemas are rarely reducible down to a clear binary.
