    I didn’t think it was possible to hate the Tories more than I already did, but here we are.

    They are mighty in their ability to fuck everything up.

    Native Americans weren’t allowed US citizenship until 1924.

    Let that sink in. We lived here first…for thousands of years. And less than a hundred years ago we were finally given citizenship.

    We also fought in WWI despite not being US citizens.

    In Arizona, natives weren’t granted the right to vote until 1948. Think how that type of neglect ties into resource colonization as infrastructure was developed within years prior. 

    In addition: the indigenous peoples of Canada were not recognized as Human Beings until the year 1960.
    Now let that shit sink in.

    In the US it wasn’t until 1968 that the Indian Civil Rights Act was passed and allowed for the right to freedom of speech / assembly / press, a jury trial, the right to an attorney etc. It’s so fucking frustrating.

    and it wasn’t until 1978 that we were legally allowed to practice our own religions. in a nation founded on religious freedoms, it was illegal to practice our own religions. in our own country. how fucked up is that?

    Aaaand Native Americans weren’t entitled to their own languages (had no legal rights to teach them in their schools, use them in business) until the Native American Language Act of 1990.

    I teach this to my students, because NONE of it is in a single textbook. This is and act of indoctrination

    Boosting because I didn’t know any of this.

    These facts should be known by all.

    In Canada, Native peoples were imprisoned in reservations and not allowed to leave without a pass, until 1951.

    Remember to mark your home with an American flag, so come Independence eve, Uncle Sam will know to pass over your home so he won’t snatch up your first born child

    We only have a Pride flag, will that work?

  • The ideapad Miix 700 is not just recognizably different, it also gives you new disruptive ways to work and play.

    Dear Lenovo copywriter, is that really what you meant it to say?

    New disruptive computing! If you can’t concentrate, no one else should be allowed to either!

    First look at the new Pixar short, Piper

    Even better is them in person. Baby Piping Plovers are basically cotton balls.

    They’re so small, we actually close off parts of beaches during hatching season. Dogs have to stay on leashes and if the weather changes, they can easily die. Basically, you’re left with a great need to protect these puff balls. ALWAYS.

    PSA: Despite the film name, these are sanderling, not PIPL.

    150 years later, Jack Daniel’s is admitting a slave helped create its whiskey

    Jack Daniel’s is finally admitting its founder may have learned how to distill not from a local preacher named Dan Call, but instead from one of Call’s slaves, Nearis Green. The story has been around for decades, but only recently has Jack Daniel’s begun telling it. Interestingly, even before this news came to light, Green had a living legacy at Jack Daniel’s.

    Hey! Men!

    Don’t worry about a lack of representation for dudes in the new Ghostbusters movie guys! You have Chris Hemsworth’s character! He’s a man!

    He’s a Strong Male Character, he doesn’t need a woman to make him feel complete! I mean, yeah, he seems to be wearing a lot of unnecessarily tight clothes, but that’s just because he Feels Comfortable In His Own Skin! He’s pretty bright for a dumb blonde to? That makes him super relatable! He’s not a Dude in Distress! He doesn’t need a woman to save him! He is Fiesty! He can Hold His Own against the Ladies! He’s not loud and over bearing, he’s a cool, empowering male character! There may even be some ROMANCE! You guys like romance right? He’s practically one of the girls! He’s just as strong as the women! He’s TECH SUPPORT! THAT’S ALMOST AS GOOD AS BEING A REAL GHOSTBUSTER RIGHT???

    But Chris Hemsworth still doesn’t look like a convincing nerd.

    You mean glasses and standing near a computer isn’t enough to make him a nerd? He must be a fake nerd guy!
