So, no, Nigel Farage isn’t responsible for Jo Cox’s murder. And nor is the Leave campaign. But they are responsible for the manner in which they have pressed their argument. They weren’t to know something like this was going to happen, of course, and they will be just as shocked and horrified by it as anyone else. But, still. Look. When you encourage rage you cannot then feign surprise when people become enraged. You cannot turn around and say, ‘Mate, you weren’t supposed to take it so seriously. It’s just a game, just a ploy, a strategy for winning votes.’ When you shout BREAKING POINT over and over again, you don’t get to be surprised when someone breaks. When you present politics as a matter of life and death, as a question of national survival, don’t be surprised if someone takes you at your word. You didn’t make them do it, no, but you didn’t do much to stop it either.

Throwback to my first shoot I worked on for Ponystep Mag with Miles Aldridge.
I remember being repulsed by that outfit. Now I dig it.

Can we just appreciate how this show is all about overcoming gender roles and it’s for children (and, oddly, it’s popular on conservative Christian cartoon channels)?

asian racism is so fucking trivialized and it’s all bc the whites managed to hide real fucking problems under this facade of a veil called the ‘model minority’.. like how are all of you gonna tell me that asians don’t face racism when we get stereotyped to the point of causing mental disorders within our communities, when our women are hypersexualized and when our men are desexualized, when our culture is used an accessory and dismissed as simply being “pretty”, when important traditions from our cultures are thrown away by western people because they see them as uncouth or uncivilized, when we invented and created so much shit for the world but we are only recognized by “slanty eyes”, when our individual cultures are forgotten and we are forced into being a messed up conglomerate of “can you speak asian?” and “are you chinese”, when colonialism and imperialism has destroyed our homes and our culture and tainted our history but no one will admit to it, when we are born in foreign lands but are not welcomed here, when we are attacked and murdered because of hate crime, when people fail to realize that asians are a portion of the community that need help as much as others do, when no one is willing to realize the real problems we go through.
like how can you tell me that asians don’t face racism? how can you be that oblivious? i don’t understand.
