To the first man, who I met by the Eiffel Tower my second week in Paris, when I didn’t know better. Who took me out four times, who waved little red flags that I tried to ignore. Like asking me outright if I was a virgin on the first date, like calling me five...

CA Republicans Sue Hispanic Dem Candidate For... →
sarahlee310:
A law firm with ties to the California GOP is deeply bothered to see Mexican-American Jose Hernandez’s name on the ballot for U.S. Congress (that is not the joke yet, but we could probably just stop there, ha ha) because he has listed himself as “astronaut” on the line for his occupation. Hernandez, the son of migrant Mexican laborers, is a recently retired astronaut, a fact the...

“Whiteness isn’t going away so make it mean something different.”

I saw this on facebook
An economics professor at a local college made a statement that he had never failed a single student before, but had recently failed an entire class.

People always compliment my breasts when I’m wearing a fancy bra and a low cut shirt or dress, but I think they look the best when I’m bra-less and wearing a tshirt. I like the way they hang when they’re not being held up, and the outline of my nipple piercings showing through the fabric makes me happy.

I swear, the majority of white people who are vegans* are vegans because they feel a deep need to create more problems in their lives.
Complication and problem solving are major human impetus. If you don’t have enough actual problems, you will make problems for yourself to solve. Some people do it by taking on complicated projects (scientists, engineers, musicians, philosophers, etc)...

A Letter to My 14-Year-Old Self
Stop trying to hide your weirdness.
It will never work.
Embrace it, weirdness is kind of your thing.
Don’t be so afraid to ask questions.
It doesn’t make you stupid,
it means you’re curious.
That’s a good thing.
Don’t be so hard on other girls.
It’s not them that you hate,
it’s the role they’re socialized to play.
They will grow out of...

If these signs had existed in my high school I never would have graduated. Weed was the only thing that made high school even slightly tolerable.
