This... is White Privilege: On Tumblr ignoring... →
dionthesocialist:
Read the whole thing on The Black Kids Table.
It looks like everyone on Tumblr’s support staff failed basic Civics and Economics, so let me tell you how freedom of speech works. Your freedoms end where mine begin. You may have the right to blog all you want about…

Spidey and Poodle (a true story from today)
Kid (looking at my Pride Week ad on the counter, featuring a kissing Spider-Man and Deadpool): Ew. Weird. Why are there two boys kissing?
His mom: What?
Kid: Spider-Man and that other guy. They're kissing!
Mom: So?
Kid: That's weird.
Mom: It's not weird. Maybe they like each other, so they're kissing. Who cares if they're boys?
Kid: Oh.
Me: :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D

The last man on Earth sat alone in a room. There was a knock on the door.

Oh hello, I’m the Doctor! Why did you lock yourself in a room? Bit boring, isn’t it?

The cowardice of New Zealand First
Marriage Equality is on the ballot of NZ. Sorry to my foreign followers who don’t get half the references to NZ politics.
dianerevoluta:
Today Winston Peters made a public statement that NZ First would not be voting in support of the Marriage (Definition of Marriage) Amendment Bill. This was not because the NZ First necessarily opposes the Bill, but because, to quote Peters:

SO. USING THIS.
aboutmaleprivilege:
Male privilege is EVEN in a reverse-racism book designed to ‘turn the tables on racism’, the chauvinistic pressure on a girl to mate or risk being cut off from society is still well and truly intact.

I love you. I’m sorry. Please forgive me. Thank you.
I tell him again and again:
I’m not your type.
You don’t understand, I don’t want to talk about it.
Yes, I like you, but I’m trying to get away from things that are complicated.
You wouldn’t really like me if you really knew me.
I’ve been here before.
I like the way things are now, why ruin it?
I’ll tell you after this...

I can’t even ragequit over this. I actually refuse to.
For those of you who are unfamiliar, Victoria Foyt decided to write a dystopian young adult series called Save the Pearls in which global warning has made dark skin and its supposed ability to withstand “The Heat” the most valuable genetic manifestation one can possess. This increases their “mate rate” in a world where people must...

Wasn’t that movie, in fact, EXPLICITLY an advertisement for toys?

Politician at door: (blah blah blah)...and my strong commitment to traditional family values, as my wife of 28 years will attest.
Shade's mom: Sir, I don't care if you have orgies every Tuesday night so long as you get your job done.
Politician: ...
Shade's mom: Also, if "traditional family values" is a sneaky way of saying "anti-gay marriage stance," you should know that my daughter is bisexual, and if I never get to cry at her wedding because some law you passed made her wedding illegal, I will personally see that your wife of 28 years has a lesbian awakening in time for you to discover the virtues of traditional divorce.
Politician: ...you have yourself a nice day, m'am.
