Scientifically, We Are All The Center Of The Universe.

“I love Moana, she rocks her curly hair and looks so pretty doing it, I used to get called Hagrid as a kid for mine so it means a lot to me. It makes me not hate my hair. However I’m not a person of colour, so I’m too scared to tell anyone in case I get ranted at, as my hair’s not exactly the same as hers.“

“İstanbul deyince aklıma kuleler gelir. 

Ama şu Kızkulesinin aklı olsa

Galata kulesine varır

Bir sürü çocukları olur.”

Native Americans watching Americans fight each other during the Civil War

It’s okay if you don’t want the same things as me in the long run. Because I like you a lot and you make me happy but we both will change in ways we can’t be sure of. So it’s okay if we don’t share a forever as long as we have right now.

Some ways to be patriotic today:

- Take a moment to read about the history of Native Americans, their beautiful and varied pre-colonisation societies, and their gradual extermination by white planters, frontiersmen and the US military.

- Consider putting those fireworks away for the evening, as many veterans who have returned home from far-away battlefields with PTSD report Independence Day celebrations can act as a trigger.

- Do something worthwhile to turn America into the place you want it to be: talk to your neighbours about how to solve a problem in your hood, join a workplace union, donate to Planned Parenthood.
