Apparently this guy was at his mother in law’s house and they were all going through photo albums and he sees he photobombed his wife 11 years before they even met. I fucking love this.
I think in light of Stephen Hawking passing, I would like to remind everyone that ALS is a horrible tragic disease. Watching my best friend suffer from it has no joke been the single worst miserable thing. Ever. ALS had it’s 15 minutes of fame after the ice bucket challenge but I would really really encourage people to still raise awareness towards ALS and donate if it’s within their means. Stephen Hawking surviving so long and being able to continue to even just interact with others is in thanks to equipment and resources many ALS patients just don’t have. If you really loved Stephen Hawking please consider donating to the ALS Association or participating in an ALS walk/fundraising event!
If you live in Austin, Texas or it’s surrounding areas please do not open any packages that you are not expecting. Do not even touch them.
If you did not order anything and nobody else did. Or if the package seems to be odd. Call your local police department and report that there is a unidentified package at your home and ask for assistance with it.
There have been 3 package bombings in Austin so far. One on March 3rd and two of them today(3/12/18). There are 3 reported deaths and one injury. These bombs are detonated via movement and opening and were believed to be placed at night.
Due to the fact that all 3 houses that were targeted were people of color (first two victims were black and the third was latinx) it is possible that this could be the results of a hate crime, however the reasons and culprits have not yet been found.
Even if you’re expecting a package, take precaution. What my family is doing is taking a picture of the package before picking it up (they’re triggered by being picked up) and plugging the tracking number into ups/usps/fedex/etc. If the tracking number isn’t recognized, DO NOT OPEN IT.
Do I have to be the asshole who says his brain is too small for me to see him as a person? Do I have to be that girl? Do I have to be the one who fucking says it?
I have a very vivid memory of sitting in a first grade classroom (first grade was my first actual classroom because my mom homeschooled me for kindergarten) thinking “I am literally going to die, I can’t live one more minute without reading a story, but I’ve already gotten my book confiscated for peeking at it during class and I have no backup book and I’m going to die” and then thinking in a burst of divine inspiration “WHAT IF I TELL MYSELF A STORY INSIDE MY HEAD. THEY CAN’T TAKE THAT AWAY FROM ME. PHYSICALLY THEY CANNOT.”

“In other news, the sky is blue.” Wow, A+ commentary!
They had a Black historian look at their past issues and analyze them to discuss how the images and words they used were racist and the effects that racism had on people who read the magazine. It’s far more than a lot of other institutions have done. I don’t presume to know whether or how we can ever atone for racism (cough, REPARATIONS) but it does seem like a first step is acknowledging what you did was wrong and that you harmed people, apologizing, and then changing.

you know, positive change isn’t a competition. i think it’s about time for the peanut gallery to stop pissing down on anyone who tries to make up for past mistakes.
