I’m sorry but it’s way too sketchy to have to “sign up” for a protest. There’s no reason you should have to give anyone your full name, email, phone number, and/or address in order to march in the streets. People are getting arrested left and right because cops have access to information that connects people to the protests they were at. If an organization is having people “sign up to join the fight,” all the cops need to do is access that list.
Also, if you’ve taken more than a high school economics course taught by someone who has never stepped foot in a college economics class,
Giving $500 to poor people multiplies it REALLY FAST. That $500 immediately goes into the economy and ripples more purchases until it hits a rich pocket.
Giving $500 to a billionaire takes $500 out of the economy permenantly. You could have set it on fire and made no difference.
Every time I return to Tumblr, this flowchart has more likes.
Sometimes it turns up on Facebook, or friends alert me that some dick has put it on merch or uploaded it somewhere without credit…
People have written entire blogs about it…
It’s just something I made at like 11pm at night one time in a very “RRGH!” mood and shoved up on Tumblr and went to bed.
Sometimes it’s fun to read though what the latest comments are. Some people get it or feel encouraged, and some people are SO angry at me for encouraging people to keep trying, like how DARE people make art while not being already great at making art or feeling confident!? Absolutely hilarious. Cry harder!
Just remember two things:
1. This flow chart was made by a professional illustrator called Kate Holden, inexplicably the same person who voices Kanaya in Let’s Read Homestuck, because hey, it’s Tumblr, of course I’m a Homestuck.
i’m so serious when i say excessive fear of being annoying/creepy/taking up people’s energy etc holds us back. it seems like it’s just little things but they add up. over the past month i’ve ordered food and drinks almost exclusively by asking “do you have a favorite?” and i know if i said that on twitter or wherever ppl would dogpile me for demanding emotional labor of servers or w/e but every single person i’ve asked has seemed genuinely psyched to answer! i don’t ask if it’s busy obvi, and use a phrasing that gives them the easy out of “i don’t have one”— but no one has taken it! the girl at the cafe confessed to me with something like conspiracy in her voice how everybody raves about the gluten free chocolate chip cookies and sure, they’re great, but the delicious, fluffy homemade waffles are RIGHT THERE. the barbera the bartender recommended was actually kind of awful but it broke the ice and we ended up talking for like 45 minutes. the bodega guy declared that he usually makes himself a burger but tonight was “a breakfast sandwich night” and tbh he was totally right. it WAS a breakfast sandwich night
in Maine sheep are released on offshore Islands in spring to graze for summer. With no natural predators on these islands sheep thrive. To be corralled up and brought back to the mainland in early fall.
Seafaring Sheep travel to their Private Island Paradise for the Summer.
I love the alarmed tone of the cat meows when I’m home much later than usual. It sounds like “did you know?? Did you know it is late at night?! Hey! Hey! Did you know that there has not been dinner?! No dinner for cats? Hey! I can tell you are as concerned and worried about these developments as we are. My brother and I are also very concerned. No dinner!! The cats have not had dinner! Hey! Heeey!! Should you maybe call a police or pope or something? Congress? Dolly Parton? Did you know about this?”
