Trip: You’ve been painting behind my back? You bitch!
You: (Anyhting)
Trip: You know what (player) I think you should just leave.
When you see it…
it took three passes of this across my dash until I got it and want to throw my macbook out the fucking window
Are you fucking kidding me
………….
God dammit. I that is like something I would expect from MLP
EVERY SINGLE PERSON NEEDS TO KNOW THIS.
A scientists job is not to prove what we know right, but to see if what we know is wrong
I went to the mall, and a little girl called me a terrorist.
My name is Ela. I am seventeen years old. I am not Muslim, but my friend told me about her friend being discriminated against for wearing a hijab. So I decided to see the discrimination firsthand to get a better understanding of what Muslim women go through.
My friend and I pinned scarves around our heads, and then we went to the mall. Normally, vendors try to get us to buy things and ask us to sample a snack. Clerks usually ask us if we need help, tell us about sales, and smile at us. Not today. People, including vendors, clerks, and other shoppers, wouldn’t look at us. They didn’t talk to us. They acted like we didn’t exist. They didn’t want to be caught staring at us, so they didn’t look at all.
And then, in one store, a girl (who looked about four years old) asked her mom if my friend and I were terrorists. She wasn’t trying to be mean or anything. I don’t even think she could have grasped the idea of prejudice. However, her mother’s response is one I can never forgive or forget. The mother hushed her child, glared at me, and then took her daughter by the hand and led her out of the store.
All that because I put a scarf on my head. Just like that, a mother taught her little girl that being Muslim was evil. It didn’t matter that I was a nice person. All that mattered was that I looked different. That little girl may grow up and teach her children the same thing.
This experiment gave me a huge wakeup call. It lasted for only a few hours, so I can’t even begin to imagine how much prejudice Muslim girls go through every day. It reminded me of something that many people know but rarely remember: the women in hijabs are people, just like all those women out there who aren’t Muslim.
People of Tumblr, please help me spread this message. Treat Muslims, Jews, Christians, Buddhists, Hindus, Pagans, Taoists, etc., exactly the way you want to be treated, regardless of what they’re wearing or not wearing, no exceptions. Reblog this. Tell your friends. I don’t know that the world will ever totally wipe out prejudice, but we can try, one blog at a time.
coming up next on white people solve racism
muslim women dont need your white saviour attitude, you might now finally realise what it’s like to be excluded from society because of a piece of garment but you’re never going to experience it in the way we do.she literally worded this so well and so honestly and tried so hard not to be rude, she just tried to understand what you go through. she’s not trying to be a saviour, she’s trying to raise awareness. she never said she’d solve anything or experience it like you do. stop doing exactly what other people do to you and shut down someones ideas just because of their color or religion or anything. this is a valid and completely pure hearted thing.

It’s funny how people act like white people are the biggest douchebags, and then act like total asshats themselves, huh?
She did this to get a GLIMPSE into the shit Muslim women are put through. She never claimed total understanding; in fact she said that she “can’t even begin to imagine how much prejudice Muslim girls go through every day.” She ADMITTED that she doesn’t know everything these women go through, and yet she’s STILL attacked? I cannot fathom why it’s deemed “okay” to be prejudiced against white people, even when we try to understand what it is people of other ethnicities/skin tones/nationalities/religions/etc go through. If you want, we can stop trying to understand and let everyone wallow in their self-pity.
People forget so often that it’s still racist if it’s prejudice against white people
just-your-averaqe-teenaqe-qirl:
If someone could talk me through the tumblr etiquette surrounding trigger warnings, that would be great.
I know a lot of stuff I post mentions topics that could be triggering but I have no idea how to best signify this, say if someone was triggered by novice questions would I tag the post as “novice questions” or “tw novice questions”.
I won’t be able to start most posts with a TW because I reblog more than I write myself, but I don’t understand how tagging the TW will make a difference if the tags are marked under the post so it’ll be too late by the time it’s seen.
But I see a lot of people tagging the TWs so I’m wondering if there’s something I don’t know about.
Also thanks.
Well the real problem is that people misuse the term “trigger”
It originally referred to people with PTSD and teh trigger would force them into flashbacks or anxiety attacks. I don’t think that most of tumblr has suffered traumatic enough events to have PTSD so when people are like “Gore is my trigger” it’s false. Goer is something that they don’t like and don’t wanna see on their dash, but it is not a trigger unless they had a gore related traumatic event.
Anonymous“Mayor, a prototype Ursa Minor is rampaging through the town! And a swarm of mechanical insects are eating all of the metal, and this is on top of the Diesel Dogs kidnapping people and forcing them to mine gems for nefarious purposes! …Mayor? Mayor, where are you going?!”
“Also there was a major construction accident, the shields over the boiler is cracked and Someone can’t open a jar of pickles!”
“The best way to prevent STDs and pregnancy is to not have sex!” Yeah well the best way to prevent drowning is to not go in the water but there are more practical methods like water wings and life jackets and learning how to swim.
oh
THIS FUCKED ME UP..
