Bagel's Rebagels

— Good Girl, Lora Mathis (via lora-mathis)

if you're in public school it's time to resist in the only way you can

when the teacher isn't looking, eat the flag

I do actually care marginally about the guy in that reddit screenshot who voted for Trump and is now worried that he might lose his medicaid funding because I did not fucking stutter when I said healthcare is a human right but the people losing their internships and job offers to the hiring freeze are straight up hilarious.

My mom was telling me about this YouTube video she watched (I can't remember the name, sorry) where the person shared a screenshot of some MAGA voter from Florida asking for help, because his wife had been hired for a nursing job with the VA in Texas, so they sold their house and were preparing to move. But they rescinded her job offer after Trump's executive order. The post from the guy was basically like "I already contacted Senator Ted Cruz's office, and they said they couldn't do anything about this. Please help me get this story to President Trump, we love him! We voted for him 3 times! And we know this was just a mistake and he'd help us!"

Just.................a part of me laughs, and another part of me thinks about how cult followers genuinely believe that the cult leader cares about them

This is the part about believing in universal human rights that can be a bit difficult: they're universal, and should never be denied anyone, no matter who they are or what they have done.

You can be – you should be – furious with people who voted for Trump, for wilfully trying to sabotage those rights and make them conditional, a privilege for the "deserving", a privilege they can deny the "wrong" kind of people.

And when the MAGA crowd are hit by the consequences of their actions, and denied basic human rights because it turns out their Great Leader doesn't actually include his followers among the privileged, it's tempting to say that they deserve to be denied those rights, because that's what they wanted to do to others.

But if you do that, you don't truly believe that those rights should be universal; you just have a different idea than the MAGA crowd about who should be included among the privileged.

You can still tell the MAGA who's crying that the leopards ate there face that you're angry with them for letting the face-eating leopards loose. But you shouldn't be fine with their face being eaten.

It took me ages to find this post again but. Yeah. Same energy

This is exactly it, thank you!!

Philomena Cunk was so correct though, and now I want to know what was the first flight in an aeroplane to have a toilet? This is a question and I'm convinced there's an answer.

Incredible. It's 1921 and the Handley Page W.8 starts flying with an airplane bathroom. I honestly would not have guessed that just 18 years from the birth of powered flight would be all it took to implement such a concept. Bathrooms in a cabin that looks like this:

(The big square windows and nicer chairs were updated in later models)

Imagine it, you're sitting on a seatbelt-less wicker chair in a fancifully-adorned timber horse trailer strapped to a wooden kite with four engines, pilots who are outside, and the luxury of relieving yourself in all the meager privacy and comfort of, I assume, an airplane bathroom.

The Flying Shithouse is the funniest god damn thing I could have possibly learned. Philomena Cunk would be so mildly pleased, but mostly bored, to learn that we first solved this problem by adding wings to a latrine with just a seat and a hole.

Just gonna reblog this again. For reasons.

I love video games, my favorite pastime is to not play them

in botw the longer you play the longer links hair should get because ive played this game for like 60 hours already and link has never once cut his hair. also i think a braid would be cute on him

for your consideration

havent thought about this post in months but i read @alostbeast​‘s reply last night and could Not sleep until i’d sketched out hairstyle concepts for each location in the game

@danguy96

When’s someone gonna draw Link with Rapunzel hair, huh?

h

h a ir

GIVE US RAPUNZEL LINK!

apparently i’ll just draw anything anyone adds to this post now but here’s rapunzel link because since making the og post i’ve played another like 300 hours of botw

why is link so hot

What are these and what are they for, please?

Look like various forms of wall anchor, not sure if the specific types have names (they probably do). Idea is that they are used to mount something to a wall where a screw by itself wouldn't stay in the drywall (or other thing wall material). Basically I need to put a screw here but behind here isn't a stud. Also this video doesn't show it but the idea is that you first drill a hole in the wall big enough to fit the wall anchor through, and then as you tighten the screw, it causes the anchor to expand and keep the whole unit from being ripped out.

Second from top is my favourite. Works in light wooden walls, works in brick and concrete walls (assuming you have the proper drill to get a hole in there in the first place, which I do). I got two boxes of them in different sizes and I use them for everything.

The various folding ones or the ones that look like lunar landers, wow, those look crazy. I assume useful for drywall?

dear usamerican high schoolers looking for a way to resist fascism: sit through the pledge of allegiance.

no getting up. no looking at the flag.

everyone will be looking at you. you'll be sweating like a fucking hippopotamus. your teacher will sternly tell you to get up. you'll feel stupid and that maybe its not worth it because you're just a kid in a classroom. but I'm here to remind you that there are no real life consequences to detention. there are however real life consequences to resisting a thoughtless performance of nationalism.

Masculinity is under attack they want us to stop reviving ancient hypermysogynist nationalist warrior culture that never existed

blood, in Wigan it's as good as gravy
