“But this is really seeing the future, you just leave us behind. Is that what you’re gonna do to me?”
“No. Not to you.”
diseonfire asked: Okay, round two: 16., 38.?
16: I’ll love you if you talk meta with me.
38: Before I even really knew what it was, I was scribbling on paper, pretending I was writing. My anti-Sharon used to sit down with me and ask me what I was writing and I’d tell her these elaborate stories. They were just wavy lines on a page but they meant something to me.
So yeah.
It’s kind of always been writing.
diseonfire asked: I try. :p
No. Pick another. I feel like a total dweeb. I never get these and I want to do it right damnit.
Or don’t.
It’s cool.
diseonfire asked: 43.
Shit. You had to pick the hard one, didn’t you?
No one comes to mind.
Literally no one.
i never understood
what made your lips on my neck
such an intimate affair
until your teeth grazed my pulse
and i realized
you could tear open my throat
and make me bleed out in your arms
but instead
you chose to kiss

so i’ve seen a lot of people reblogging the episode of that’s so raven about racism in retail but I think Smart Guy handled this better.
The first picture is of the scene where Yvette and her friend Nina are hired by the store manager. The manager is racist and encourages employees to follow black customers around as a ‘loss prevention strategy’. Despite her actions clearly being racist the store manager later tells Yvette “I can’t be racist I hired you didn’t I?”. Yvette tries to prove to the manager that she is indeed racist. In the second picture she sets up a camera and in the last she shows the manager the video of her white friend clearly shoplifting very obviously who wasn’t noticed because the manager was busy following around her other friend a black male. This was the conversation that resulted
Store Manager: what are you trying to show me that your friend is a good theif
Yvette: you’re missing the point, you were so busy following the black customer you didn’t see what was really going on
Store Manager: which proves what
Yvette: all races shoplift but if you only follow black customers that’s all you’re ever going to catch
Yvette: I have 50 hrs of tape here
Store Manager: do you have 19 years of tapes, because that’s how long i’ve been in retail and that’s where I get my information
Yvette: but wait a minute the retail industry itself says that the average shoplifter is a white middle aged woman not unlike yourself. you are stripping people of their dignity because of their skin colour and it’s wrong
Store Manager: Yvette i’m sorry you feel this way and i’d understand if you chose not to work here anymore
I liked this episode because it showed just how no matter how much evidence you show someone with a racist mindset will mostly just continue to defend their actions because in their minds they aren’t racist they’re right.
This show did something by showing just how racists can act like their behaviour is the most reasonable thing in the world and that’s what hit me hardest and something I think needs to be exposed. People need to understand that consciously hating all black people isn’t the only way to be racist.
in the raven episode the big reveal is that the manager admits that she doesn’t hire black people but in reality thats not something they admit. But you’ll still see it in their actions and they’ll forever justify themselves and argue until their last breath that they aren’t racist.
I always think about this episode haha! She was one of my fave tv characters growing up. Good show.
I used to just stuff all these in my mouth you know..
seriously? i ate each one by color…. :c
i never ate the purple ones

Someone come write/RP/whatever a ff called “Do Werewolves Dream of Electric Dog Fences?” with me.
I need it to happen. I don’t fucking care.
The Chinese say, “Be not warned by the speaker, but the words that he speaketh.” I recall an incident when standing on a block in Ohio … just discussing that you can learn something from everybody …
While discussing this with a man, a drunken man was coming down the street, and there were sirens going all around. He said, “You say you can learn something from every man. Look at this man; he’s the biggest drunk in our community. He never has anything worthwhile to say.”
The drunk came right up to him and said, “Your house is on fire.”
