Place Called Home | Fuck Community College Lets Just Get Drunk And Eat Chicken Fingers

“you fought for me when i needed

you the most and i left you
out in the cold this is
just another late night drive

this is just another ~~late night~~ drive
where i learn to hate myself
for everything i ever did
if regret was in a bottle
id drink it down
just like these ~~beers~~
id black out on your love and wake
and wake with you no where near.”

lemon dad: Man Killed In Horrible London Machete Attack, Racist Brits Would Like To Kill A Few Billion More

ogyawn:

publicshaming:

What do you do when a man is killed in the streets where you live? According to some wonderful humans, you call for the mass slaughter of all those who practice the same religion that the killers may practice!

There was a horrific attack today in Woolwich in southeast London. Two men attacked another man, who is believed to be a soldier, and then beheaded him with a machete. Literally, what the fuck.

It is being called a terrorist attack and it is said that they are Islamic extremists because someone told some guy who told his brother’s uncle who works for the BBC that they heard them shout “Allahu Akbar.” Well, ok. If you insist. Saying these things certainly won’t fan the flames in jolly old England…

Now, if you can take your attention away from the very alarming #BeliebersWantToBeYourSmileJustin hashtag trend, you will see “Allahu Akbar,” “EDL,” “Muslims,” etc. trending. Shit. This can’t be good…

Ah, the English Defense League! I knew they’d show up here. They’d like you all to take to the streets (and take to the streets to look for whom I wonder?). But I mean, who listens to those crazy EDL folks anyway?

Make a stand? Make a stand against WHO?

Hint: They would like you all to take to the streets and attack random people who you think are Muslim.

Hint #2: If you don’t know who is a Muslim, they would like you to assume it’s anyone with skin darker than your own.

Now, usually, I do a good job of picking out the majority of the absolute worst crap I find. But there was just SO MUCH, I had to be a little more picky this time…

I would like to pause for a second here and note that there seems to be a strong hatred for people from Pakistan, whom they call “pakis.” I can’t tell if they are just making the assumption this man is from Pakistan or they seem to think “paki” is a religion or if they think “paki” automatically equals “Muslim” or…wait….WHY AM I EVEN TRYING TO MAKE SENSE OF THEIR LOGIC.

These are some pretty terrible tweets, but if you want to see the REALLY HORRIBLE shit, you’re not going to find it on Twitter. Nope. Because you see, these heroic race crusaders who want to take to the streets and fuck shit up…were frightened of the blowback they were receiving from their racists words and deleted their tweets. But, sadly for them, you can’t run from something once it’s been posted on the internet…

No mass genocide of an entire population because of the actions of few men? WHAT’S WRONG WITH US!

“See I’m not racist! I just want to kick out the terrorists! How do we tell who is a terrorist? Why, that’s easy! We just kick out anyone who doesn’t look like me!”

And, hands down, my absolute favorite tweet of the bunch:

EMOJI RACISM!

W o W

I wish I could say I was surprised.

I don’t trust your ass, on principle. Too many white queer/leftist/feminist folks running around here talking about how they’re anti-racism but their hangouts look like a klan meeting. Hard pass.

"Stop thinking about art works as objects, and start thinking about them as triggers for experiences...."

““Stop thinking about art works as objects, and start thinking about them as triggers for experiences. (Roy Ascott’s phrase.) That solves a lot of problems: we don’t have to argue whether photographs are art, or whether performances are art, or whether Carl Andre’s bricks or Andrew Serranos’s piss or Little Richard’s ‘Long Tall Sally’ are art, because we say, ‘Art is something that happens, a process, not a quality, and all sorts of things can make it happen.’ … [W]hat makes a work of art ‘good’ for you is not something that is already ‘inside’ it, but something that happens inside you — so the value of the work lies in the degree to which it can help you have the kind of experience that you call art.””

- Brian Eno (via holzers)

Gina Calaya, arrested for Tucson murder at 14, released at 34:

thisisrapeculture:

socialismartnature:

When then-14-year-old Gina Celaya killed the man who tried to rape her, the state of Arizona sentenced her to life in prison.

Today — after twenty years in prison, and almost as many years of legal battles fought from state courts up to the federal court of appeals — Gina is finally free.

That’s the American “justice system” for you. Serving up injustice to poor people, people of color, and women, since 1776 … She has served more years in jail than the number of years she had been on this Earth at the time of her supposed “crime.”

Meanwhile, actual murderers and rapists walk around freely if they wear a police badge or serve in the U.S. military.

There are no words for how much I fucking hate this country.

There is no justice system.

I hope no one ever interferes with her life again.

Out of the tragedy of the massive garment factory collapse in Bangladesh, workers have now won two major reforms:

1) A panel to raise the minimum wage in the garment industry and

2) The right to form trade unions without prior permission from factory owners.

Still, more pressure—and responsibility—need to be placed upon America’s big-brand companies to win further protections.

Two Wins for Bangladesh Garment Workers, But the Fight Isn’t Over

Good. This is just the start.
