first of all papa smurf didn’t create smurfette, gargamel did she was sent in as gargamel’s evil spy with the intention of destroying the smurf village
Fucking wild to be teaching about Rosa Parks at the same time as a trans woman in Florida does an act of civil disobedience to use a women’s restroom in the state capitol
As far as I know, she is the first woman arrested bc of this law. The law requires that the trans person be warned to leave the bathroom by a state official, and then if they stay they are guilty of trespassing after a warning.
So like, me, my gf, others just piss and nobody asks or tells, but this young woman sent a statement about the law to over 100 FL lawmakers so they would know she was coming, the cops were ready for her, she brought a reporter and went in anyway and spent the night in a men’s jail. She is out on bail, and is hoping this will inspire change of the law. But if found guilty, and the law is upheld as constitutional, then she could spend up to 60 days in a mens county jail.
Seriously, this is extremely Rosa Parks coded. Good looking, religious college girl. It’s the whole playbook. She also added this selfie.
I support her and hope this goes as well as it can.
Shoutout to trans women for being the only ones to do something actually politically radical with the recent trend of girlcore catholicism
Twenty years ago, February 15th, 2004, I got married for the first time.
It was twenty years earlier than I ever expected to.
To celebrate/comemorate the date, I’m sitting down to write out everything I remember as I remember it. No checking all the pictures I took or all the times I’ve written about this before. I’m not going to turn to my husband (of twenty years, how the f'ing hell) to remember a detail for me.
This is not a 100% accurate recounting of that first wild weekend in San Francisco. But it -is- a 100% accurate recounting of how I remember it today, twenty years after the fact.
I’m so proud of Senator Booker (and his staff) for breaking the longest filibuster record by speaking for people’s rights for over 24 hours, not only because I support his message but because the record he broke was Strom Thurmond’s filibuster against civil rights in 1957. The fact that a person of color broke a record held by a racist man by speaking on caring for all people
I’ve decided that all bats fall somewhere on this horrid little graph I’ve devised. Here are some prime examples of the various Creature Varieties found in nature.
