Dear White People,
THIS is how you ally. THIS is how you use your privilege to help us. THIS is how you earn our respect. The White college students in Cape Town, South Africa knew the police would not shoot or harm them so they created a human shield to protect the Black protestors. I’m crying. I’m crying.
when he white but not a piece of shit

From an excellent post by Jason Davis
From Washington, D.C., the rings would only fill a portion of the sky, but appear striking nonetheless. Here, we see them at sunrise.
From Guatemala, only 14 degrees above the equator, the rings would begin to stretch across the horizon. Their reflected light would make the moon much brighter.
From Earth’s equator, Saturn’s rings would be viewed edge-on, appearing as a thin, bright line bisecting the sky.
At the March and September equinoxes, the Sun would be positioned directly over the rings, casting a dramatic shadow at the equator.
At midnight at the Tropic of Capricorn, which sits at 23 degrees south latitude, the Earth casts a shadow over the middle of the rings, while the outer portions remain lit.

Hasn’t Mark Hamill been playing The Joker for 20 shitzillion years? How come he never got “consumed” by the role?
Jim: The sky seems so much darker tonight. I’m afraid to turn it off.
Barbara: Then don’t, Dad. Leave it on.
Jim: I’ve got that same awful feeling…
Barbara: What feeling?
Jim: The same feeling I had when Batgirl disappeared. No one knew exactly what had happened to her, but everyone knew it was bad. And there wasn’t a damn thing I could do about it then either.
Barbara: When I was in physical therapy, there was a sign on the gym wall. It read, “No matter how dark the night gets, the sun still rises in the morning”.
Every day, I’d wake up two hours before dawn. Back then it’d take me that long to get into me chair, clean up and go outside to watch the sun rise. But I did it. And I still do. I love life, Dad. I love every single day.
I brought enough coffee to last until sunrise.
Jim: You’re an amazing person, you know that?
Barbara: Like father, like daughter.
