Because it took me a minute to find/remember: if you are in the UK and see immigration enforcement vans (UK equivalent of ICE) you can tweet the location to @/antiraids and @/LCAPSV on twitter who will retweet to warn/raise awareness for others who need it

They're also good accounts to follow just in general

no one gets over their lana del rey phase. no one. you may think you have, but you haven’t. you may not have listened to her music in years, but someday, she will drag you back. maybe not today, and maybe not tomorrow, but someday, you will hear one of her songs, and lana herself will appear to drag you by the ankle into the candy-flavored, murder-filled fog

freddie mercury saying ‘I think I’m bisexual’ and his fiancée immediately answering with ‘You’re gay’ is literally the epitome of the bisexual experience tho, I almost screamed in the cinema when that scene happened

“There were two ‘Reigns of Terror’, if we could but remember and consider it; the one wrought murder in hot passions, the other in heartless cold blood; the one lasted mere months, the other had lasted a thousand years; the one inflicted death upon a thousand persons, the other upon a hundred million; but our shudders are all for the ‘horrors’ of the… momentary Terror, so to speak; whereas, what is the horror of swift death by the axe compared with lifelong death from hunger, cold, insult, cruelty and heartbreak? A city cemetery could contain the coffins filled by that brief terror that we have all been so diligently taught to shiver at and mourn over; but all France could hardly contain the coffins filled by that older and real Terror - that unspeakable bitter and awful Terror which none of us has been taught to see in its vastness or pity as it deserves.”

- Mark Twain on Revolutionary Terror

This is supposed to just be a normal photo of Gritty with a youth hockey team, but because it’s GRITTY, it’s still the funniest thing I’ve seen all day.

Working-class history is queer history is women’s history is black history is the history of disability.

Those who are excluded from the ownership and control of capital by a system which cloaks itself in supremacist ideologies are - by definition - overlapping, diverse, rich, complex in their oppression. Trying to dissect a history of the oppressed in search of a ‘pure’ experience of oppression is artificial, ahistorical and false.

Embracing and fostering that diversity tempers the cutting edge of social revolution.
