You know, the one that gives housewives/full-time mothers a pension— wages for housework?

It’s ONLY A HUGE VICTORY FOR FEMINISM, SOCIALISM, AND WOMEN OF COLOR. Not a big deal or anything. Tumblr is mysteriously silent about this.

Answer all these questions and you should have a fully-developed character for your audience to connect with. A strong character can carry a weak plot; but a strong plot can’t carry weak characters

oh

This may be the most powerfully accurate image I’ve ever seen in my life.

wow

oh

speaking as someone who works as a cashier at a big box store this makes me want to cry with its accuracy. my paycheck is determined by how well i manipulate all those barcodes, if i fuck up, there goes my paycheck, and there goes my freedom from worry and doubt and hunger. i don’t even have any real freedom right now because my life is dictated by my work and it is completely impaired by my very short-sighted schedule. i am very motivated to go to collage now, even if its just for a two year degree because i want more freedom that what i currently have right now. i want more freedom than i can currently afford right now. freedom is not free. and that sucks.

Okay I’m really confused I’ll see people reblogging their own posts but when I try to do that I can’t.

I’m not trying to do it right now anyway but there have been relevant times in the past and if there’s a way to do it I want to know how.

Copy paste this
http://tmv.proto.jp/reblog.php?post_url=
To the URL of the post you want to reblog

Oooooh cool. Thanks!

I’m not trying to do that right now but hey if it’s ever handy.

I was starting to think maybe tumblr has achievement levels you need to unlock or something ;)
