after a day of being disoriented, confused, and probably very tired in your strange new body, that first night when you lay down and give in must be the best night of sleep ever.
This does not explain how to give credit to the extradimensional being who bestowed the vision upon you, but APA is a bit limited as a citation format.
“Oho! What a delightfully homoerotic lampooning of the Catholic mass!” [Face darkens] “Unfortunately, it inaccurately represents Catholic doctrine. I shall not be reblogging.” [Hammers my meat with smugness]
But they aren’t documented so they wouldn’t be pa…..nvm
This is a huge misconception for regular Americans. When the government uses the phrase “undocumented” they’re using it incorrectly because if they were truly undocumented then they would’ve be in system. However these immigrants are in the system and they pay taxes, file tax returns and get no benefits that citizens and legal residents get. They also get to see ICE showing up at their doors because the government has their addresses.
Fun fact. “Undocumented” workers pays $12 billion dollars every year in taxes.

Reblogging for info.
“Undocumented” just means “without papers,” i.e. a social security card, valid visa, etc. They’re still on databases and whatnot, they just don’t have the documentation that allows them to reap the benefits.
so if it didn’t click- the government is aware of their presence and gladly taking their money under the table while simultaneously promoting the idea that undocumented people are a threat and encouraging hatred and distrust of them it’s super messed up, literally the scheme of an evil villain, and it’s really happening
🗣 undocumented immigrants in Los Angeles contribute more to the GDP than the state of Montana and like 5 other states
my nostalgia for circa 2010 club music is hysterical to me. i was not at “the club” in two thousand and ten, i was at home on the family computer singing along to “like a G6” as if i wasn’t in the G6th fucking grade
this is where i was popping bottles in the ice like a blizzard
Sure piracy is a crime but I THINK. It’s even MORE of a crime. To have a website that has all the hallmarks of a sketchy piracy site, complete with the hundred and fifty ad pops that redirect you to another site every second click and may or may not give your laptop a virus, and THEN when your viewers have navigated the minefield to their desired content, you require them to sign up. For a “free trial” that involves ENTERING THEIR CREDIT CARD INFO and the fine print mentions that they’ll be charged 50. Dollars. If they don’t cancel in time.
i made a collage inspired by What Its Like To Use Tumblr Mobile (: hope u guys can actually see it
the best thing that came out of me making this post was the ppl in the notes saying they thought i just posted a gradient image for the joke only to find out i actually made a collage
“This potion will give you the body that your heart desires, the body that will bring you true and lasting happiness. But be warned: don’t expect beauty. I’ve seen men become literal monster from the darkness in their hearts. Happy monsters, but monsters nevertheless.”
Every time I see this post, I think, yeah, I’d be happy being exactly this. The Fuck Yea Dragon.
the funny thing is that i don’t think younger people - and i mean those under the age of 40 - really have a grasp on how many of today’s issues can be tied back to a disastrous reagan policy:
A couple of these started earlier (before Nixon, for-profit health insurance was not allowed, and Nixon also started the war on drugs specifically to target minorities and anti-war activists), but Reagan doubled down on them and made them even worse. It was the difference between sliding down the side of a hill and jumping off a cliff.
Good morning. This might be my last message from the city of Rafah. The occupation [Israel] is carrying out crazy fire. Violent belts. As you’re hearing, there are helicopters. Planes and gunfire from the vehicles. There’s a complete invasion of the city.
We don’t know what is going on in Rafah. The place that the occupation [Israel] claimed to be safe. This is happening all of a sudden; the people didn’t go out. They didn’t do anything. More than thirty targets were hit in just minutes. People were asleep. We woke up to the bombing, to the shooting from the helicopters. It was horrifying. Unacceptable.
This might be my last message. Please relay it to the world.

Rafah was Palestinians’ very last safe zone. There is quite literally nowhere else left to go. And now it’s being bombed with airstrike after airstrike.
“A lovely Palestinian boy sharing his modest breakfast with a cat in front of the Dome of the Rock, the Al-Aqsa Mosque compound, occupied Jerusalem.” x
tbh i think the funniest phenomena that’s been happening in the last couple years is “youtuber, having gone too deep into the research hole, has been made an investigative journalist against their will”
Shout out to the guy who wanted to do some fun & silly little reviews but uncovered an illegal gambling operation
(Review 2)
this guy started out poking fun at australian politicians and ended up investigating the firebombing of his own home, during which he uncovered connections between the same politician he was making fun of + major organized crime
That same guy had to delete his latest video.
Thankfully it’s been reuploaded like a million times already.
