They sent pipe bombs to Obama, Clinton, CNN, and a major Democratic donor. They marched through the streets chanting “Jews will not replace us.” They jailed and brutalized and outright killed Black protesters. They ran a woman down with a car for protesting their hateful rhetoric.
They threatened from the start to resort to violence if they didn’t get their way, and then got their way…and resorted to violence anyway. They are the purveyors of a body of politics that sees most of us as subhuman and undeserving of life, and actively works toward our destruction.
Remember that during this election.
This is not a matter of choosing the “lesser evil”. This is flawed politicians vs. actual fucking terrorists. This is human failings vs. inhumanity. This is not being progressive enough vs. silencing the opposition with violence.
Hey do y'all fucks remember two years ago when just before the election all these “don’t vote both parties are bad” or “vote independent!” Posts were going around and then Trump won and now two weeks before midterms there’s all these “don’t bother voting, revolution is the only way!” And “your vote isn’t gonna matter and is an ineffective way to protest” posts are going around? Yeah knock that shit right the fuck off, don’t fall for it and get your ass to the polls, we are not doing this again.
“I know voting can be a pain in the ass, so just pretend like, if you don’t vote, children will be ripped from the arms of a parent who crawled across a desert to give them a better life and put in cages.” (Laurie Kilmartin)
Watch Black Lightning! (Ratings are real important)
If you want more of #thundergrace…
And to generally see more of our ONLY black lesbian superhero…
A black superhero family…
And more of this kickass show that’s really giving the rest of the Arrowverse a run for their money, please watch! This show is revolutionary and deserve a whole lot more attention than it’s getting right now.
Ratings and viewership aren’t looking so hot right now but I know how many people love this show, so if you do love it, try to watch it on TV (within 3 days if you record it), on the CW website, or on Netflix (if you’re in a country where they update weekly), so that your viewership counts where it matters!! And if you’re “interested” in watching but haven’t yet, do it!
Netflix is already out here canceling Iron Fist and Luke Cage like it’s nothing.
Let’s keep Black Lightning safe.
Also!!! Download the CW app and watch on there too!! You don’t have to worry about watching within 3 days but you do have to watch within 5 weeks or so because they only keep 5 weeks episodes up at a time. Just please support this show with three strong Black women one Black Lesbian, one Asian Bisexual and like honestly whats shaping up to be a slowburn romance between them!!!
why are star wars planets more boring than earth and our solar system like sure we’ve seen desert, snow, diff types of forest, beach, lava, rain, but like…
rainbow mountains (peru)
red soil (canada/PEI)
rings (saturn’s if they were on earth)
bioluminescent waves
northern lights (canada)
salt flats (bolivia, where they filmed crait but did NOTHING COOL WITH IT except red dust?? like??? come ON)
and cool fauna like the touch me not or like, you know, the venus flytrap.. and don’t get me started on BUGS like… we have bugs cooler than sw aliens
BASICALLY like???? come on star wars you had one (1) job where are the cool alien species
I KNOW!! I did a report on filming locations in Star Wars last year and just made a list of places that looked so surreal they could make a convincing other planet. You covered some on my list but if I could just add a couple more:
Tsingy di Bemaraha, Madagascar
Zhangye Danxia, China (similar to the Rainbow Mountains in terms of appearance)
Chocolate Hills, Philippines
Giant’s Causeway, Northern Ireland
So many missed opportunities with cool ass things on Earth, Lucasfilms smh…
Earth is effing amazing!
Quebrada de Humahuaca, Argentina
Lake Retba, Senegal
Tepui, Venezuela
Tianzi Mountains, China
these would make amazing Star Wars planets OR fantasy material:
Tsingy du Bemaraha, Madagascar again (but a different part)
(those are razor-sharp, if you were wondering. very little of this area has been explored because YIKES)
Lake Natron, Tanzania
(looks cool, but is alkaline enough to Kill Your Shit)
Lake Baikal, Russia
(the deepest lake in the world, seriously)
and I’ll wrap it up with Son Doong Cave, Vietnam, the largest cave in the entire world.
it puts anything Dagobah has to offer to absolute shame:
(seriously, the largest chamber is 660 feet high. you could jam a fucking skyscraper in there and still lose it)
anyway I really like caves thanks for coming to my ted talk
Everybody pause your discussions about white men in androgynous clothing for a second and look at Ranveer Singh, a brown bollywood actor absolutely SMASHING it in these outfits for Vogue India
Hes wearing a whole dress with BANGLES if yall cant tell
Things he did?That
Just look
Amazing
I saw a man so beautiful I cried.
Reblogging so @pynki and @weasleyismyking540 can see this rather handsome man. (The last one makes me want to ask Where’s Shaft?)
Reblogging this becoz I love Ranveer and it’s incredible finding an Indian actor on my tumblr dash. Also, for those who might not know, he is a firehouse of talent, an incredible dancer and has the most quirky dressing sense in the industry.
