usually I come here to watch porn and get distracted by the feed but now I’m using the feed to distract me from the sudden lack of porn on tumblr I feel sad, nostalgic and horny
I’m not gonna argue that you have some existential obligation not to schedule things on Jewish holidays but I am gonna say that when you do it, it makes Jews a little less welcome in your space
And this is especially an issue in a space that is already for a marginalized group and is trying to be intersectional, eg. an LGBTQ group
And like, I know there are Jewish people who’d still go, but tbh that’s kind of part of the issue — by scheduling things this way, you’re contributing to the stress of having to choose, the pressure to assimilate, and the tension of being a Jew in the diaspora
Non-Jews can reblog this
If you’re like me, then your first reaction to this was “Okay, but there are a lot of holidays and a lot of religions, how do I schedule around all of them?”
So I went and found an Interfaith Calendar of Holy Days for major religions.
Thank you for this addition! I was actually thinking of linking this exact calendar. And very good point about checking in with someone from the religion — many holidays are minor or at least don’t really get in the way of going to events. Like, scheduling something on, say, Tu Bishvat would be totally fine.
I’m torn between what my favorite brother faction fights are, Justin and Travis vs Griffin aka “older siblings make their baby brother cry”, Griffin and Travis vs Justin aka “we spend a long time finding these questions but yeah cool here comes another munch squad”, or Justin and Griffin vs Travis aka “travis what the Fuck Are You Talking About”
The best mcelroy family faction fight though is Justin, Travis, and Griffin vs Clint aka “What the fuck dad”
this is missing the classic travis and griffin vs justin aka “travis and griffin heckle justin so hard through a stupid two second joke that it takes him five minutes to get through it”
I have a headcanon that Hermione insists her children attend some primary muggle schooling before Hogwarts, just as she had done. Now, imagine Arthur Weasley attending his grandchild’s science fair, being the ultra proud grandfather….and yet also completely geeking out over absolutely EVERYTHING.
Canon
“That is a volcano, that is a VERY SMALL VOLCANO, how - young lady, how did you make this? Baking soda and food coloring? MARVELOUS!”
the kids would love him.
Never have I ever loved anything more than I love this
All the muggle teachers would think he was being so adorable, “pretending” not to know how potato batteries and mini-volcanoes work, fawning over the hard work the kids did on even the simplest the projects. And he comes every year, because after the kids have aged out (”gone on to some boarding school in Scotland,” the teachers say over bad coffee in the break room, “they didn’t seem the type”), he gets an honorary invitation to the fair every year, because he never stops making the kids feel smart and good.
“And this airy-o-plane, it flies by means of a… rubber band? Did I hear that correctly? No magic at all? Doesn’t flap its wings like a bird? MARVELOUS! What an ingenious method of flight!” *looks around* “You, sir! With the ribbons! This child deserves one of those prizes!”
why? straight-gay best friends being the main focus of the show… it’s what we deserve
even though the show is set in the present day, they’ve decided to go with the 70s aesthetic vibe which looks just astonishing + the soundtrack slaps
from iconic scenes
through powerful scenes
through random moments that end up being touching
to… well
[jennifer lawrence voice] gay rights!
the reason behind the father being hesitant and (at first) not really supportive of his gay son using make-up and dressing up is that he’s genuinely scared and worried something will happen to him outside because he loves him… truly a father-gay son dynamic we needed to see
Jackson Marchetti. Feminist icon. Abs. Excellence. Does his best. Lesbian moms. Charming. What’s there not to love? Let him breathe, Netflix.
“I love her!” be more specific
the hero of the show actually being an awkward guy and a very likeable character
this non-problematic legend being out there, loving math and making sure his partner is genuinely sexually pleased
the only two openly gay guys at school are not friends but gay solidarity still exists
Mean Girls 2.0 being really mean but we still stan these vegan icons
literally no one giving a fuck that the gay guy is in the boys changing room… looks like it’s finally 2019
I don’t do very many reblogs on here, but this is very important—each inaccessible station reduces the number of possible trips on the network at factorial rates, and the earlier maps do a good job of illustrating that even if a decently large fraction of stations is accessible, the fraction of trips that can be made with full access is much smaller.
I live in the DC Metro area and was always like “Man, the elevators are often out of service in the metro. Not very accessible. Wack.” Then I briefly moved to London and I was like, WHAT??? Half the stations make you go up STAIRS, not even escalators? It was just… unheard of to me. A lot of places are really not accessible in London, maybe because so many attractions are so old– I was very scared seeing an elderly lady with two canes trying to ascend narrow, spirally stairs at the Tower of London on a rainy, slippery day. I guess there’s no way to make a 1,000 year old castle accessible, but it was still nervewracking.
Banksy sees Trump serving McDonald’s in the White House and throws his hat on the floor and jumps on it repeatedly, cursing like an old timey gold prospector.
