Some old fella came up to me at work and asked a question only he didn’t quite figure out if he should call me “sir” or “ma’am” by the time he got to the end of his sentence and in a moment of apparent panic ended up saying “captain” instead. Absolutely made my day.

ok im currently working at a summer camp and theres this 8 year old girl playing minecraft on a phone and shes been spawning sheep in a pit with wolves and then watching the sheep die repeatedly for like 6 minutes now

shes been steadily increasing the amount of sheep in the pit

another girl came over to see what she was doing and she immediately turned around to show her a house she had built but as soon as the girl left she went back to the wolf pit

it happened again a boy was glancing over at her and she acted like she was cutting down a tree and then when he lost interest she went back to the pit

she went down in the pit and stabbed a few to death but now shes back to letting the wolves do the work

Criminal Minds

Antifa isn’t an organization. It has no membership, no meetings, no solid single ideology beyond “fascism is bad” and being against it.

If you are against fascism, you are AntiFa, because it literally means ‘Anti Fascist/Anti Fascism’.

That is why it is so dangerous to label ‘antifa’ as a terrorist cell. Because it’s basically anyone who doesn’t agree with Donald Trump, which means it’s political censorship.

tl;dr: Labelling antifa as terrorists is to protect the far-right, not the average citizen, because it means the average citizen can be held without rights if they express not liking fascism.

Family of transgender woman killed in Orlando sets up GoFundMe to pay for funeral

Another sister, a beautiful black queen lost to senseless violence. Ms. Sasha Garden was actually trying to make a difference in the community when her life was cut short, if you have anything at all please please donate so that she can have a proper burial. There has literally only been $530 donated so far, I know we can help out her family more.

The family of Sasha Garden, a transgender woman whose body was found at the back of an Orlando apartment complex last week, has set up a GoFundMeto pay for her funeral.

Garden’s mother, Sharon Daniels, created a fundraiser asking for $10,000 to pay for the cost of bringing Garden’s body home to Milwaukee, Wisconsin from Orlando and for any other burial costs.

Orange County Sheriff’s Office deputies found the 27-year-old woman dead July 19 at the back of the Reserve at Lake Buchanan Apartments on Holden Avenue around 5 a.m. Investigators have described her death as a “homicide” and said her body had signs of trauma. OCSO has not identified any suspects so far.

Garden’s cousin, Yolanda Davis, remembered Garden as a beautiful person with an open heart.

“Sasha was just Sasha,” she said. “Her biggest thing was to provide for her family. She didn’t take shit. She was always a kind person. Everybody has their mean days – ain’t nobody perfect. But at the end of the day she was genuine. She didn’t sugarcoat it.”

LGBTQ advocates fear Garden’s death is connected to the murders of three other black transgender women who were killed within the past five months in Jacksonville. 

❤ PLEASE help this womans family ❤

KIRK IS HOLDING A ZINNIA. THE SAME FUCKING FLOWER.

FUCKING NASA MAN

No. Nononono. You don’t understand. 

I am so mad about this. Like, not like I wanna kill someone, but mad, as in, hysterical?

They wanted to answer questions about plants in space, right? How biology and botany would work in space. Because then who knows? We could grow crops in space, or fix the atmosphere. Or create the perfect biome for plants that are now extinct. Who fucking knows, right?

They could have taken a food crop. Wheat, maybe. Or rice. Something they could observe to see if it would be possible to solve a food shortage or whatever. Maybe a small apple tree to see if it would bloom, and then see if there could be a way to make it fruit. 

Or, you know, go the genetics route and take a sweet pea. See if zero gravity does anything to how genes are passed on. Mendel did it in a shed, why not a tin shed in outer space, right? Oh the possibilities.

Was it so wrong to take the zinnia? No, of course not. In my little horticultural brain, I thought, oh how lovely! A splash of colour in the emptiness of space. Something bright and cheerful, something that gives hope. That must have been it, right? 

But no. 

SOMEONE went, “Nah, mate, here’s an episode of Star Trek where Kirk is holding a ZINNIA in a SPACE DESERT.”

I could scream. I don’t know if I love or hate these fucking nerds. Oh my gods. 

NASA, YOU NEEEEERDS
