There shouldn’t be positive posts about white pride. Whiteness is a social construct of privilege founded on the oppression of people who don’t fit that bill.
Be proud of being Irish, Italian, German, wherever, revel in your culture, celebrate the shared history you have with other people and these connections that keep traditions and diversity alive.
But if you say “be proud of being white” that is a whole other thing. We shouldn’t be PROUD of benefiting from a system of oppression.
This little lost soul is so indoctrinated with self hate that she thinks white people don’t have the right to be proud of what we are. If we however say that we are proud of ourselves, we are not oppressing anyone. In fact, if you say we cannot feel a certain way, you are the one doing the oppressing. Please analyse your thoughts and look at where they come from and what they are causing. There have been a lot of periods in history where white people have been oppressed. f.e. between 711 and 1245 there was a horrific occupation of great parts of Europe where we were occupied, and guess how is still proud of that period, yes the people who did the oppressing.
Can you please jump back in time to when you were oppressed thanks
Harry Houdini, sobbing in frustration: “Oh my god. Oh my god. Arthur I’m not a goddamn wizard. Please stop.”
Sir Arthur Conan Doyle: “Why won’t you trust me, Harry? Am I not good enough to share in your wizard secrets?”
Harry Houdini: “Arthur please. Please. Arthur you are the most gullible man alive and you’re getting scammed by paper cutouts of faeries.”
Harry Houdini: “Arthur, this isn’t working out. I think we should have a friend breakup. It’s unhealthy…”
Sir Arthur Conan Doyle: “I was thinking the same thing. If you won’t face the facts and accept that you’re a magic wizard, I don’t think I can carry this relationship by myself knowing the truth about you.”
Harry Houdini: “Yeah see this is exactly what I mean.”
Here is a work of historical fantasy that I would like to exist: A disgruntled Harry Houdini and a delighted Sir Arthur Conan Doyle stumble upon the existence of a hidden magical world.
The most Brian May sentence I’ve ever read in my life
is Brian May issuing this monumental understatement about why he couldn’t complete his Ph.D. thesis in 1974 as though anyone reading fucking Brian May’s thesis isn’t gonna fucking know
“REGRETFULLY, I WAS THE LEAD GUITARIST IN QUEEN”
I’m not sure why I found
“REGRETFULLY, I WAS THE LEAD GUITARIST IN QUEEN” to be so funny, but here we are…
… Born to be kings, we’re the Princes of the Universe~!
“under pressure” is really about brian may being unable to submit his thesis on time.
When I asked Ms. Dyer if she could tell me which industry served as Glitterex’s biggest market, her answer was instant: “No, I absolutely know that I can’t.”
I was taken aback. “But you know what it is?”
“Oh, God, yes,” she said, and laughed. “And you would never guess it. Let’s just leave it at that.” I asked if she could tell me why she couldn’t tell me. “Because they don’t want anyone to know that it’s glitter.”
one of my favorite things in Brooklyn Nine Nine is when you can tell the writers were like “you know, Andre Braugher is an extremely talented Shakespearean actor who graduated top of his class at Juilliard…..what if we took advantage of that for our sitcom”
I’m getting a heartbreaking amount of people in my notes saying that they’d make a Spider-OC but they just can’t draw, they suck at drawing, they’re not good at art, they can’t make art
listen
