1. I love it when people speak of the halcyon days of “morality” in America. Remember the good old days, filled with segregation and lynchings, when pregnant teens could be easily be shipped away to “visit family” for a year, or when rape was considered just a “bad date?” Men could happily beat their wives and the law wouldn’t do anything about it because he was just “taking care of his home?” Remember when homophobia ran rampant and men and women chose to lie to their unsuspecting spouses, all the while having affairs with same-sex partners while lying to everyone around them for the sake of raising a traditional American family? American morality is not eroding. It is a completely different landscape, and in most cases, a lot more honest one. The PTC needs to wake up. Don’t look back at Americas past with rose colored glasses, as if Glee, suddenly and irresponsibly confronted unsuspecting teens with this totally new concept of sex.

I love this.
One my my friends had a facebook rant today about how we shouldn’t be worrying about Kony and things that are happening thousands of miles away when we have too many problems of our own to fix.
Do we have our own problems? Absolutely. But just because you have your own stuff to worry about doesn’t mean you can ignore the plight of others. If a person lived like that, we wouldn’t see them as a very benevolent person, just as we would not be a benevolent country if that was our policy.
And I completely understand the mentality of taking care of your own first and then moving outward. We need to be in good shape in order to have the capacity to help others. But we are already so much better off than most that it’s extremely ignorant to say that we can’t help when it is needed. 
I also think that it’s dangerous to think of people in other countries as not part of the same group, as different from us. We’re all people. We should all take care of each other and stop labeling “us” and “them”. Which brings me back to the above quote. Let’s fight for the world, and every person in it, not just those in our country.

  5. The United States of America on college education

    2. USA: YOU USELESS PIECE OF SHIT. YOU'RE GOING TO AMOUNT TO NOTHING YOU FUCKING SCUMBAG. YOU'RE THE REASON WHY MY TAXES ARE SO HIGH.
    3. Student: I'm just going to attend a small community college instead.
    4. USA: HAHAHA YOU WERE TOO STUPID TO GET INTO A GOOD UNIVERSITY. ENJOY YOUR MCDONALD'S DIPLOMA.
    5. Student: I attended a four year university and received a diploma in a field I am interested in. Now I am $50,000+ in debt.

America: Do whatever the fuck you want because America

#or just throw it all into the harbor



Does anyone actually follow that ettiquette in England?
Because my understanding of tea ettiquette in England is: OFFER YOUR GUEST TEA AS SOON AS THEY ARRIVE - GIVE THEM THE LARGER MUG, BECAUSE THEN THEY CAN HAVE MORE TEA IN IT, AND MORE TEA IS BETTER - OFFER THEM MORE TEA AS SOON AS THEY HAVE FINISHED THEIR MUG OF TEA, BECAUSE MORE TEA IS BETTER.
IF SOMEONE LOOKS STRESSED, OFFER TO MAKE THEM TEA. IF SOMEONE LOOKS UPSET, OFFER TO MAKE THEM TEA. IF SOMEONE LOOKS TIRED, OFFER TO MAKE THEM TEA. IF SOMEONE HAS JUST COME IN FROM THE RAIN, OFFER TO MAKE THEM TEA. IF SOMEONE HAS JUST RECEIVED BAD NEWS, OFFER TO MAKE THEM TEA. IF YOU ARE WATCHING TV WITH SOMEONE AND THERE IS AN ADBREAK, OFFER TO MAKE THEM TEA. IF YOU ARE MAKING YOURSELF TEA, OFFER TO MAKE EVERYONE ELSE TEA. IF SOMEONE IS NOT CURRENTLY HOLDING A MUG OF TEA, DOUBLE CHECK THAT THAT IS AN INTENTIONAL STATE OF AFFAIRS, AND THEY DO NOT, IN FACT, WANT A CUP OF TEA.
TEA.

BRB MAKING SOME MORE TEA

Well, that sounds like the tea etiquette in my life.
Tea is always the answer.

I have tea right now. Is everyone else good for tea? Can I make anyone a cup?

*Mug. A mug.
YOU MUG.

Fewer than 5 million notes. Fewer. Not less. 

I believe that it is called an  aubergine. 


IN AMERICA WE LET EGGS BE PLANTS BECAUSE FREEDOM


In Britain we let those AUBERGINES live once we heal them with our FREE HEALTH CARE


NOBODY CARES, ENGLAND



at least America came up with their own word and didn’t steal ours



you used the wrong flag France

Hey! Hey, guys! Canada likes eggplants - or aubergine - what ever you want to call it - too!
