stop trying to excuse robert aaron long’s actions by saying “he had a bad day”. everybody has bad days. people still manage to not go on killing sprees.
Just told Ben I always rip out and leave a single strand of hair in every taxi I get in so it could potentially be used as evidence if anything were to happen and he couldn’t believe it . On today’s episode of things I do as a woman that I’ve never thought twice about :
sia’s new movie ‘music’ features a neurotypical actress playing a character on the autism spectrum and shows the character being restrained, which is highly triggering to the autism community. please do not support this movie and condemn its creators for its awful message.
when referring to someone as asian, many people assume it to be east asian (chinese, japanese, korean) when in reality asia is much more than just east asia. next time, remember to also consider those from west asia, central asia, south asia, south east asia, and the middle east.
recently, jojo siwa came out as queer (congrats!). this is extremely impactful as it normalizes coming out at a young age & is supportive of queer youth. we need to normalize coming out young & stop being dismissive with comments such as “they’re too young to know how they feel”.

because of this, during his time, the majority of white americans were not in support of him and his beliefs. his stances should be addressed for what they are, not what we want them to be.
stop whitewashing dr. martin luther king jr. he had radical beliefs about blm and white supremacy and was not always a passive person. he didn’t always have peaceful and “nice” beliefs and this should be recognized.
