if I see one more person say 'people with dark skin/poc don't fit the goth/emo/punk aesthetic' I will throw hands
the most punk thing poc can do is simply exist. we're out here beating the system every fucking day y'all. we're out here being ourselves and that is the biggest 'fuck you' ever!!
goth culture as we know it came from punk. poc rock extravagant clothing, bigass eyeliner, and cool as fuck hair like no one else. bro we fucking invented that!!
emo literally means emotional expression. we have stories to tell, legends to pass on. this is where we fucking belong!!
y'all we are so fucking awesome. don't let anyone tell you otherwise. don't let anyone tell you that you don't belong.
26-year-old Jamarion Robinson’s grandmother Beverly Nixon said her grandson was bipolar and schizophrenic. Still got shot 76 (!!!) times. Would a white person get the same treatment?
The witness said he saw more than a dozen patrol cars at the complex where US Marshals killed Robinson on August 5, 2016. Why were there no behavioral specialist? Surely one of them would know how to interact with a bipolar schizophrenic better than the police.
I’m absolutely disgusted.
Here’s Jamarion’s mother’s GoFundMe in case anyone is willing to help.
since i have not seen anybody share information on this here, please pay attention to the philippines right now and provide any support you can. if this bill passes, people's basic rights to free speech will be taken from them.
anyone seeing this from the ph, please stay safe and stay strong. these are scary times.
I feel like to outsiders, Gladio and Ignis are the responsible dad and mom friend respectively which is true. However, they’re both kind of batshit when it comes to fighting. Like, the excitement of it all is a lot for them. Together, Gladio and Ignis are The Battle CoupleTM and neither one of them is even a little bit chill about it. Like, Ignis doesn’t like to lose. In fact, he refuses to lose. His stubbornness is off the charts. People make the very bad assumption that because Ignis doesn’t like to stand out that he won’t rip their limbs off. They always fuck around and find out that Ignis is named Ignis for a reason, as he will totally incinerate them and Gladio is attracted to that. Gladio is also conflicted because he’s a natural protector. He wants to always protect Ignis even when he doesn’t need help, so they’re frequently fighting side by side and in sync. Once Gladio gets over himself though he literally will just launch Ignis at their enemies. The post-battle lust must just be off the charts. I love them.
Anyway, daily reminder from a culturally isolated Romani person.
Gypsy does not mean wanderer.
It literally means ‘people from egypt’ or similar, as europeans believed Romani people were from Egypt. It has become known similar to nomad due to how our ancestors have been forced to be nomadic due to racism and ostracization, but it is a SLUR.
Romani people are STILL being forcibly sterilized.
Romani people are STILL being forced into ghettos.
Romani people are still facing violence and danger in countless European countries- and recently, I’ve seen the beginnings of the extremes in the United States.
Have a little fucking respect and DON’T USE A SLUR THAT’S BEEN USED FOR CENTURIES AGAINST US.
And for the love of whatever’s up there, ESPECIALLY do not use it to describe your witchcraft. It is playing on the ‘magic gypsy’ trope, and is EXTREMELY insulting.
non romani people, please reblog this.
"You can not go out into an active battle field wearing just robes. I do not care if Commander Tano doesn't wear armour. In this house we do."
"You're part of the wolfpack now kid, you got to look the part."
"Yes sir, Commander Pup, sir!"
"What do you mean Pup isn't the Commanders name? Everyone calls them that?"
"No Wolffe. I have absoloutly no idea why Boost's armor is covered in glitter. None."
You don’t have to be violent but that’s not to say you cannot be violent if need be
REBLOG if being punk doesn't have to include using violence
LIKE if being punk means you have to use violence
Thanks. :)
