Happy Ambedkar Jayanti!
tomboyism is so funny to me. gender non-conformity for girls is acceptable for like two minutes between the ages of 8 and 10. beyond that it’s appalling and you’re a freak but for those two years…… they could’ve had it all
no matter how hard i try i will always be that little girl wondering why everyone is better friends with eachother than her and begging to be loved
Hate how this doesn't apply to one particular country!!
the tragedy of tumblr is you will inevitably meet people who you should be having a sleepover with. you should be rolling around on their floor and rummaging through their fridge and watching shitty movies with. you should be shopping with should be going out to a cafe with should be wandering through the aquarium with. people who you should be experiencing quotidian joys with... and you cannot! because they live one million miles away
"One could never count the moons that shimmer on her roofs,
Or the thousand splendid suns that hide behind her walls"
Had to pick it up again this women's day.
To the women in Afghanistan and the women in the USA and the women across the globe.
The struggle never ends. The despair never stops. The rage is ever growing.
Rest in Power Mariam Jo.
a relationship should be fifty-fifty. She lays me gently in the cold dark earth and I crawl home to her.
It's always corporate infrastructure Over the structure of your face
Grown ass professors be beefing with students half their age and having a quarter of their qualification for the sake of entertainment.
Is it a normal desi experience to feel like a failed investment of your parents or is it just me?
How tf does one get a B+ at 90/100 marks on a math test?????
It's not the talking, it's the doing
It's the hand that yearns for work
And its renewing
Of the self each time you try
Of purpose and of pride
It's not the waking, it's the rising
It's not what's in front but who's beside you
It's all that came before
And what it provides you
All those that held the line
Who wouldn't bow down and resign
It's not the waking, it's the rising
Bitches take on 7 minor projects, 3 certification courses, the most complex of electives and 4 recently picked-up hobbies and then expect beauty sleep, mental stability and good GPA all in one semester.
It's me. I am bitches
There will never be peace in Palestine until the total, unequivocal defeat of the occupation. I know this has been said, but far too many people will be just fine with getting on with their lives. That is why it is imperative that we keep up the pressure, and not let Palestine become another hip, trendy cause of the month.

Throughout our entire adolescence women will be adultified. Told that we are ‘more mature’ than our male peers. More responsible, more reliable. We’ll be given tasks and responsibilities that are not expected of our brothers and barely expected of our fathers. The oldest daughter will start to clean and cook and take on child care duties for siblings. We listen to mother’s emotional outbursts of pain because ‘we just get it.’
And when a sixteen year old starts dating a man who’s been out of high-school as long or longer than she’s been there, this rhetoric can be used as justification. “Well she’s actually more mature than he is” her mother titters with a laugh. “He’s the only boy on her level” her father says sagely.
And I ask; how is the sixteen year old girl ‘more mature’ than the adult man who has years worth of life experience, the right to vote, drive a car and purchase liquor? What experiences, privileges, rights or understandings does the high schooler have on this man?
The answer is nothing she is simply more mature by virtue of being female. And isn’t that just so convenient for predatory men.
Why do girls mature faster than boys?
We don’t
Men just need a reason to justify expecting and extracting more from us earlier on in our lives.
hate when a man is being misogynistic and ppl are like would u still say the same thing about your sister/daughter like YES, literally YES like when will people understand that misogynistic men are misogynistic towards the women in their life too not just women on the internet
Growing up is realizing that you're still the same girl from kindergarten who no one wants to talk to.
thinking about libraries genuinely makes me want to cry. like that is the pinnacle of humanity right there. we love learning things for their own sake, and we want you to learn it too, in a quiet little place so you can build your own world. the only thing missing is a soup kitchen
There is a different comfort in pessimism🐦⬛🌒
