I did a shirt! This fellow here is my pal Jacob. He needs a service dog to help him out. If you head over to this link and buy a shirt, let me know and I’ll draw whatever ridiculous thing you want. Even “OneDirection.”
I’ll post it here and you can reblog it, alerting your followers to your heroism and good taste.

i tried to interact with other humans today
oh my god this yeah this happens all the time to me
Memememenemeeee
some girl literally laughed in my face when I said I really enjoyed Elementary because how could I like it if BBC Sherlock existed? I was really confused because we were in real life, not on Tumblr. She doesn’t even have a Tumblr.
So, I paint my nails pretty regularly these days. I also work as a barista/cashier pretty regularly these days. A few weeks back, I had a customer come in, a fairly typical, sheltered, suburban soccer mom, and she ordered a latte from me. She saw my brightly colored nails and said, “Wow, you’re so brave! My son asked me about painting his nails, and if it’s okay for boys to do that. Now I’ll tell him there’s a cool guy who does it too!” It was a nice moment, very cute.
Then, last week, she came in again, and said, “Hey, I’m so glad you’re here! I want you to meet someone!” She then brings her son forward, and says, “Okay sweetie, show him what you did!” And he throws his hands up, showing off his bright, sparkling blue nails. He shows them off, and I show mine off to him. He smiles. We fist bump.
Guys, I’ve only wanted to cry once at work before, and that was when someone ordered a large dry soy cappuccino on ice.
This time, though. This was a good cry.
Children of immigrants are more likely to have graduated from college than the general population.
Is one or both of your parents an immigrant to the U.S.? Then you’re one of 20 million second generation U.S.-born Americans.
That means, statistically speaking, that you make more money and are more educated than your parents were at your age, you lean left politically, and you’re accepting of homosexuality and supportive of interracial marriage (according to a recent study by Pew.)
I really like this article but I’ve always considered myself first gen???? Because I’m the first generation to be born in America??? And I used to hang with a lovely group of other first gen kids in high school so I’m so confused by this terminology.
Either way , first/second gen life 4 life.
Just thought I’d share this charming piece of graffiti from near my home.
By the way, this is the ONLY women’s library in the country, it has only women’s work in it and also serves as a sort of feminist museum. They’re affiliated with a university close by and hold regular events such as workshops and talks on subjects like the poetry of immigrant women of colour or the representation of mental health in women’s literature. Its also due to be closed down by the Conservatives.
Can men go in and borrow books written by women?
Yeah, totally, they even do events for men by women on intro to feminism, rape culture stuff sometimes!
