I adore this man, and also can relate.
This tweet totally describes me
Just read it.
Whoever made this deserves an award.

Finally breaking up with a tv show like
Holy smokes its magic!
Anodization in action. This is how we safely change the colour of your jewellery, no paints, sprays or coatings - just electrical voltage. For you nerds out there the eltrical voltage is changing the thickness of the oxide layer, which causes it to refract light at different spectrum levels, thus giving the appearance of different colour. Anodizing is completely safe for fresh and healed piercings and for long term wear. You can also change the colour of your already anodized jewellery to a different one further down the spectrum and have faded jewellery re-anodised. At @thepiercingurge we provide this service free of charge so you can look that extra rad without breaking the bank.
Nice to know that there is truth to the legend.
so cute
Bit of a rambly rant, but I have so many thoughts!
I hope that white BLM allies don’t stop at reblogging articles, or even at going to protests. This doubly so for people outside of the US - where people might think the situation isn’t as bad. (not that reblogging articles isn’t a good thing, spreadig the message and showing your support is great!)
READ and LEARN about your history. Try and get different sources, and look for sources from the black community or other minorities. Only if WE as white people change our views, behaviours and demands, will there be change. This is NOT for the black community to solve! They are pointing out the problem, AGAIN, and WE need to fix this, because WE as white people have made it so in the first place. WE need to vote and demand change from our governments.
Call people out on their racism - be constructive. But more importantly: CALL YOURSELF OUT. We all have racist thoughts. You have to face this simple fact. I do. You do. We need to work to catch ourselves at it. It’s not because we don’t WANT to be racist, that we AREN’T.
I think one of the key things is to understand what has lead to this situation. The racism in the US has come about slightly different than that in Europe or other places. So learn about your history.
I have a book on the Black Panther Party on my reading list atm, and I’m also going to read more about the colonial past of my own country (I feel like my history teacher glossed over it, and I really need to educate myself on this).
I’m sure I’ve seen reading lists already, but if you have reading tips for me and others, please leave a reply!
My darling phone fell from my pocket and the screen is cracked. I have to send it to get repaired and it would be gone 2 weeks. I don't know if I can live without voltage that long. (T-T)
Hi! Here is a blog that I honestly needed to work on for any writing I do. When I'm not trying to drown my sorrows in tea, you can find me writing on Ao3. I'm a English graduate who got a job to fund her 2D boyfriends. I love art, gardening, traveling, and my cats.
