Bon soir, New Orleans
Anything to do in this town on a Saturday night?
I’ve seen a few things in my life, and the New Orleans Pride Parade ranks up there
I EARNED these
Home of the famous Voodoo Daquiri, which comes in its own convenient vomit bucket. A grateful salute to a trio of drunk girls from Detroit whose names slip my mind
I am dubious of their “Oldest Bar in America” claim unless there are a number of asterisks. For oldest bar in America, continually operating at the same location, I believe the title belongs to McSorley’s Alehouse NYC

Now entering the dark heart of Stevekingistan
So far on this trip I’ve been to AOC’s district and Steve King’s district. Both places have lovely, fun people whom I’d bet would get along, despite their different tastes in congressional idiots.
You know what’s better than being a political junkie? Being an actual junkie

Some architectural wonders from yesterday’s segment of of #BBRTA2019: first the Guardian Building in Detroit, an astonishing 1928ish mashup of Art Deco & Prairie Style
And then a stop in Beverly Shores Indiana, home of several surviving Homes of the Future from the 1933 Chicago ‘Century of Progress’ World’s Fair. Little Pink Houses, indeed.
This is the Florida Tropical House by Robert L Weed, sponsored by the State of Florida to promote Florida life. Nearby is the Rostone house designed by Purdue U architect Walter Scholer & made of a composite material called Rostone

Even after synagogue shooting, mass shooting is still a black thing americanthinker.com/blog/2019/04/e…
Even as the blood dried at Saturday's synagogue shooting, national political and media figures wasted no time blaming "white supremacists" for what they say is just the latest in an epidemic of mass shootings.
After all, everyone knows mass shootings are a white thing. Dylann Roof, right?
Wrong. The New York Times, much to the chagrin of its own reporters, said 75 percent of mass shooters are black. They actually checked.

Alright, I need a break from the book I'm reading so let's do an Anne thread! #LainaReadsAnne
#LainaReadsAnne (Sidenote before I start - did I have to look up "epoch" for this chapter? Well, let's just say that an epoch is an event or time marked by an event that begins a new period or development and you can decide for yourself :P )
#LainaReadsAnne Come September and Anne is bringing the cows home from the back pasture... and "till the cows come home" isn't actually that late, is it? What is it, like, twilight?

Anyways, Diana comes to see her with very important news and tries to get her to guess it.

{#taekook/#vkook au} Phoenix hybrid!Taehyung always creates fires by accident. Fireman!Jungkook often comes to stop these fires but is always surprised to see a shy young boy turn to ashes whenever their eyes meet. Before returning from the ashes as soon as the wolf hybrid leaves
- NSFW warning (dunno if there'll be smut 😕 but you can expect violence/death scenes and implied hybrid abuse)
- Angst but fluff and good ending too
- Ageswap (Jk's 24 y/o and Tae's 22 y/o)
- If you want to comment do not reply to this thread, quote instead
Taehyung had always lived away from society because his parents were afraid he’d become a slave like most hybrids. So, they lived isolated in a cottage in the middle of a huge forest since Taehyng was born.

1: A thread about the older people in our lives and what they’re capable of, thanks to my amazing parents and in honor of #Pride month. ❤️ This is also the first time I’ve shared my full #ComingOut story. 🌈 (P.S. They’re also @islandirie’s parents! 😊)
2: When I was 8 y/o, I was watching [early] Oprah with my dad. Her guests were middle-aged women who identified as lesbians. I’d never heard that word before, so I asked him: “Papa, what’s a lesbian?”
3: My dad looked a bit alarmed but quickly said “Hush, that’s a bad word. It’s not for kids to use. Don’t say it again, okay?” And trusting my dad, it didn’t come up again. Not for a LONG time.

Home
no one leaves home unless home chases you
fire under feet
hot blood in your belly
it’s not something you ever thought of doing
until the blade burnt threats into
your neck
and even then you carried the anthem under
your breath

#home #warsanshire #poems
#WhereAreTheChildren
only tearing up your passport in an airport toilets
sobbing as each mouthful of paper
made it clear that you wouldn’t be going back.

you have to understand,
that no one puts their children in a boat
unless the water is safer than the land
no one burns their palms
under trains
beneath carriages
no one spends days and nights in the stomach of a truck
feeding on newspaper unless the miles travelled
means something more than journey.
no one crawls under fences
no one wants to be beaten
pitied
