this post. this post wherein a bot added a malicious or suspicious link and OP made a joke back at said bot.

posts like this are really funny and clearly are not meant to spread the malicious link. however, tumblr’s automatic flagging system doesn’t seem to know the difference.

so for the safety of your account, please refrain from making or reblogging posts that bots have added links to, even if it’s a joke on said bot, bc you’ll probably get terminated on accident.

Headsup since the tumblr bot problem has gotten bad (again).

My predecessor has some serious One of the Guys internalized misogyny issues. She is always ALWAYS talking shit about her own gender and like

You know that applies to you right? You don’t get to claim yourself as an exception. It’s not “women are always like…except me.”

And tbh it’s pathetic.

Every single person who talks about ‘haha Egyptian curses’ as if they were some supernatural beings (or, possibly, aliens) and not just black people who were good at building owes me $10

*ding ding ding* Spooky PoC culture trope for $500 Alex

#The Romans are somehow never spooky and those guys did shit to chickens that makes the Egyptians look tame 

like seriously can we get some “I’m scared of the Romans” posts up in here because if ever there were a group of bastards who WOULD put a curse on anything that couldn’t be nailed down


I was once present when a lead curse tablet was excavated and it was some dude cursing whomever had stolen his favourite cloak. He’d stabbed the lead it many times.

Then there was an addendum that said that he revoked the curse because no one stole it, it was his mother who’d taken it for washing. 

#the romans are a riot and y’all should fear them

#the Egyptians won’t even leave Egypt to get you

#they’re lazy af

and also incredibly practical so WAY less likely to curse you and leave that up to whatever god/karma/crazy random happenstance and far MORE likely to just whack you over the head with a bowl.

I work in a museum featuring the Roman Baths from when the Romans first landed in England in 43 AD and we’ve found lead curses where someone’s stolen their clothes from the apodyterium (changing room) and they hope Sulis Minerva pulls their brains out through their ears.

Romans are dramatic little shits that get upset over the slightest inconvenience.

I looked through the comments, and this one was gold.

Fear the Romans not the Egyptians, kids. FEAR THEM

The Trump-Pence Administration Wants to Indefinitely Lock Up Immigrant Children

ppaction:

We must do everything we can to stop the administration’s harmful family detention rule.

Last month, the Trump-Pence administration unveiled a proposed regulation, called the “family detention rule,” that would roll back basic protections for immigrant children that enter the U.S. Under this inhumane policy, the government could detain immigrant children indefinitely in harsh, jail-like conditions — jeopardizing their health and well-being.

We have until Tuesday, November 6, to demand the rule be stopped.

When the government publishes a proposed regulation, the public gets 60 days to comment.

We need your help! Post a comment demanding that the administration stop jailing children indefinitely.

TAKE ACTION: POST A COMMENT NOW

What Would the Administration’s Proposed Family Detention Rule Do?

The rule would dismantle a decades-old agreement, called the Flores Settlement Agreement, or the Flores settlement. The Flores settlement defined basic protections for children that enter the U.S. and are placed in government custody.

Under the Flores settlement, the government must either release children shortly after they’re detained or transfer them to safe, licensed shelters that meet minimum standards while they wait for the results of their immigration proceedings. Trump’s proposed family detention rule would eliminate these safeguards.

How Would it Affect Immigrant Children?

The administration’s rule would likely direct immigration officials to detain children for even longer periods of time. Research shows that even brief periods of detention can cause long-lasting psychological trauma and mental health risks for children, including anxiety, depression, and post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD).

The rule would also lower the standards that detention facilities have to meet. As a result, children could be detained in inferior, jail-like conditions without access to adequate health care or services.

Planned Parenthood believes that children and families deserve to be safe and healthy, regardless of their immigration status. That’s why we’re joining our partners in the immigration rights community in opposing the administration’s cruel proposal.

How Can I Help Oppose It?

There’s still time to tell Trump that the family detention rule is dangerous and inhumane. The administration is collecting input from the public about the rule’s effects until Election Day, November 6, 2018.

LEAVE A COMMENT NOW: STOP THE FAMILY DETENTION RULE!

We won’t sit by silently while the administration continues to strip immigrants of their basic health, rights, and freedoms. Whether it’s separating families at the border or penalizing immigrants for accessing basic needs and services through the proposed “public charge” rule, the administration has shown that it will stop at nothing to advance its racist, anti-immigrant agenda.
