Your sixth most recent emoji is how your guardian angel feels about you
finding it pretty heteronormative/homophobic that when we need to ‘get it together’, we’re told to ‘think straight’. like no thanks karen, girls are too pretty for me to do that
there is not a single reason to not reblog this
wait people sleep with their doors closed????
if you can take hours doing art, writing, reading, making gifs on this app. you can take a minute to read this and then educate yourself.
personally, i think it is very cash money for hozier to exist
hey not to be a killjoy but can y’all spread the carrd about what’s going on in Poland
obvious warning for homophobia, transphobia, etc. in the link above.
I was born there. I have countless of LGBT friends there, and the fact that this is happening in the year 2020 is inhumane and terrifying.
If you’re Polish, vote in the upcoming election. If you’re not polish, please spread the carrd around.
I am not an ideology. Nie jestem ideologią.
guys i volunteered to run a session on racial microaggressions in the workplace for my wider team and i wanted to define microaggressions and their various types and then provide a few examples both anecdotally and personally. what are your thoughts!!
your english is so good! (with a tone of surprise) why why why don’t say anything wtf
where are you REALLY from (after so much pestering - leave me alone!!) say “where’s home for you” and make it a casual conversation, dont harass!
“im gonna probably butcher your name” proceeds to butcher it and NOT leave space for you to correct them. ask first!!!!!
“oh you tick a lot of diversity boxes don’t cha” WHY IT IS HUMILIATING
jumping to conclusions instead of asking “so you must have studied IT” (im indian) instead of “what did you study and why”
talking in 3rd person of people/places/cultures and making offhand comments (like oh i avoid that shop its unruly when that shop is popular among black or minority communities)
touching or asking to touch someones skin or hair!!!!!
comparing people to foodstuffs, your skin is like caramel or chocolate.
being white and tanning dark and saying “i look like a brown person now”
expecting the one POC to be a spokesperson for everyone
“youre not from here you wouldnt understand”
belittling people who work in “back offices” as not being intelligent (big companies have back offices in India, China, Hungary etc with people doing manual and repetitive work)
Some other key points I want to make:
do not put the burden on us to speak up and educate you, be mindful of your words
if you are commenting on someones behaviour or identity, think before you speak. put yourself in their shoes and think about how it would be perceived
we are not ambassadors for our cultures and definitely not for others
do not dismiss us or gaslight us, we have years of people doing that and it breaks spirits. one innocuously bad comment puts us on guard and kicks our survival instincts in.
ask! listen! be proactive in taking a step back!
speak up and recognize and use your white privilege for the better.
do not argue and get defensive when a POC speaks up about their experiences. It’s difficult to share and it’s even more difficult to change the system when you make this about yourself
pls tell me about more common workplace racial microaggressions, or just any good tips on what to include!
elijah mcclain was an unarmed 23 year old black man who was murdered by aurora police officers in august 2019. his last words were "im an introvert. im just different, that’s all. im so sorry. i don’t have a gun. i don’t do that stuff. i dont do any fighting. why are you attacking me? i dont even kill flies. i dont eat meat...all i was trying to do was become better. i'll do it...you all are phenomenal. you are beautiful. and i love you. try to forgive me. im sorry." and these words should be ringing in our ears forever. please go to this link to see ways you can help get justice for his case, we cant forget him
i do be craving human interaction or any type of validation right now tho 🥺🥺

A friend of mine posted this and tagged my old instagram account, asking me to share it. I figured sharing it here where I actually have a following, would be far better.
Please remember that just because the government is giving into pressure and greed, that doesn’t mean that any of this is getting any better, in a lot of ways it’s getting worse. And even if you yourself aren’t being as heavily affected anymore, there are people and communities that are.
Stay safe Darling ones, and help others remain safe too.
reblog and put in the tags what's the most embarrassing song in your music collection

For those who don’t know, Rayshard Brooks, 27 yr old father of, was shot and killed by an Atlanta police officer at a Wendy’s parking lot in Atlanta Friday night.
In the video, Mr. Brooks is seen calmly and politely speaking with Officers after falling asleep at a Wendys parking lot because he said he was “Too intoxicated to drive.” The officers could have done the right thing and stayed with him until someone picked him up, allowed him to walk to his home (which he offered to do) or even offered him a ride home, but instead they decided to escalate the situation and kill him.
