“The tools of conquest do not necessarily come with bombs and explosions and fallout. There are weapons that are simply thoughts, attitudes, prejudices to be found only in the minds of men. For the record, prejudices can kill, and suspicion can destroy, and a thoughtless frightened search for a scapegoat has a fallout all of its own for the children, and the children yet unborn. And the pity of it is that these things cannot be confined to the Twilight Zone.” - Rod Serling, “The Twilight Zone” (S1E22)

Wait, what.: The women in New York are so gorgeous that it bypasses the “God, I...

whydoihaveablog:

The women in New York are so gorgeous that it bypasses the “God, I wish I looked like that” and straight into “wait, do I want to sleep with that? Am I gay now? Did that butt just make me gay?”

The other day I saw a woman who looked like Barbie and it blew my mind. I made my friend look at her. I…

This is Montreal too.

This has been popping up on my newsfeed for weeks now and I fucking hate it. I get that body image is a complicated aspect of the media and that anorexia/bulimia/general EDs are a big problem now, but this is vicious. Can we not call people with legitimate mental illnesses freaks? Can we also not shame any kind of body, ever? Furthermore, can we stop using the word “showbiz,” and if we do use it can we spell it correctly? Yeesh.

cockenblog: I’m having a pretty wild night. YO Maya from Zoom went to my Unitarian Universalist church! Her dad taught some of my classes there. I think she’s doing okay?  Also, yes I did go to a Unitarian Universalist church because I come from a family of upper middle class hippies.

“It’s no secret that miscegenation (interracial marriage) was kind of a big deal in the United States until very recently — as in, it was totally illegal for a non-white person to marry a white person until 1967. That’s why it’s so shocking to learn that, just one year after that supreme court decision the Star Trek episode “Plato’s Stepchildren” featured the first ever interracial kiss on scripted TV in the US. It was so controversial, even on the set, that they had to shoot it twice — once where William Shatner (Kirk) and Nichelle Nichols (Uhura) kissed, and one where they didn’t. But Shatner intentionally ruined the shot where they didn’t kiss, forcing the studio to use the other one.” “7 Ways Star Trek Changed the World” via Ranker GO WILL SHATNER!
