lostgrrrls: kungfucarrie: psychotropicpolitics: I’m going to make a movie in which there are only two male characters and they spend their only scene together talking about their feelings about a lady. Also eating ice cream. Meanwhile, the female characters will go on a stylized… Shortbus?

NO YOU ARE ALL WRONG FEBRUARY IS THE WORST
thetemerity: hague-nite: What even happens in February? Fucking nothing, that’s what. February is the WORST. It kills me every single year- there’s nothing to do, it’s cold and nasty, and it’s entirely composed of me rolling up in a ball and crying because spring will never come. Good thing it’s only 28 days long.

New edition of 'Huckleberry Finn' to lose the... →
kungfucarrie: I’m curious what my followers think about this. Especially POC. On the one hand - I can see the case for keeping the work in tact. Censorship. Opening up discussions of the (not-so-rosy) reality of America at the time. That even really great writers/thinkers were and can be very wrong and closed-minded. Etc.  On the other hand - I can see not wanting to ‘normalize’ the word...

Millions of homeless, millions of empty homes →
redguard: According to the Census Department, there are more than 18.9 million vacant housing units in the U.S. (census.gov) That’s enough perfectly usable housing units to put a roof over the head of every single homeless person in the U.S., with millions of homes to spare. If it is true that “it is simply unacceptable for individuals, children, families and our veterans to be faced with...
