There’s one show that CW canceled that I will never be over and that is Secret Circle. That show was SO good and its ratings were amazing and it was funny with a good balance of supernatural stuff…but it got canceled because the show runner wanted to have a wlw relationship 😔😒 still bitter af about it.

Having to listen to my incredibly stupid redneck family say horrible things about Gaga during the halftime show made me lose some faith in humanity. She fucking killed it though and you can’t deny that.

“The President in not a huge fan of me, but this is so ok, and Donald, if you didn’t like me then, you’re really probably not gonna like me now. Cause i’m hosting SNL, and I’m like so gay, dude.” - Kristen Stewart on SNL

Next time you think your workplace is weird, please remember that my workplace has an annual tattoo night out, where we rent out a tattoo parlor, order pizza, play cards against humanity, and watch some of our coworkers get tattooed

talking to someone with an open mind is like seriously my favorite things because there’s never an end to what you can talk about and learn

1. The Alvarez family is a real, modern-age family

Meet the Alvarezs — there’s mom, Penelope, who is a retired war vet and struggling to make ends meet for her family, which includes her headstrong teenage daughter, Elena, and her clever preteen son, Alex. There’s also her live-in mother, Lydia, who is very much stuck in her “old” ways and their trying-so-hard-not-to-be-a-bro neighbor, Schneider. The family that eats Porto’s together, stays together.

2. Schneider

Every show needs a straight white man to do and say everything wrong, so someone else can teach him the real ways of the world. Or, at least that’s Schneider’s function in ODAAT. He owns the building where the Alvarezs live, but over the last few months he has inserted himself into the family, whether they want him there or not. He is a sounding board for both Penelope and the kids, and even though he’s not blood related to any of them, he cares about them so much. He’s like a best friend/father figure/cool older brother all rolled into one – and you love him, even though he’s got a revolving door of women. Go ahead and roll your eyes.

3. There is no ~very special episode~ feel to the series

Know how in some sitcoms, when someone’s about to learn a Very Important Lesson the music starts swelling and you’re just WAITING for some serious talk about to go down? ODAAT doesn’t have that. It at no point is trying to push these life lessons on you, which make them seamlessly fit into each and every episode. One second you’re laughing, and the next, suddenly you realize you’ve just heard a profoundly moving speech about immigration. Nothing feels forced, which makes it hit so much more closer to home.

4. ODAAT isn’t afraid to tackle real-world issues, no matter how big or small

Each episode of the series focuses on one central topic, but you might not realize it at first. No spoilers, but the Alvarez family tackles things like: The gender pay gap, returning home from war, alcoholism, abusive relations, accepting religion, rejecting religion, and long-standing family traditions. And in many cases, it does so in less than 30 minutes!!

5. Right now, the show is topical AF

Not to spoil one of the best episodes of the series, but Episode 5 directly deals with immigration in America. Just watch it right now — you will laugh, you will cry, you will not regret it.

6.Without question, ODAAT has one of the best coming-out stories on TV

One of the long-running storylines of the series revolves around daughter Elena resisting, and then agreeing, to have a Quinceañera. If that’s not enough for her, she also (accidentally) comes out to her brother, and then (in a super heartfelt scene) comes out to her mother — and her incredibly religious grandmother. The whole family has widely different reactions to this news, but above everything, they all can’t stop reminding Elena that they love her, no matter who she loves. Hold on, just got something in both my eyes…

7. The emotional payoff at the end of the season is hella intense

You might not realize it at first, but the whole first season is about Elena (and the family) getting ready for her Quinceañera. Every little breadcrumb we’ve learned about the family in the last 12 episodes comes together in Episode 13, and the final moments of the season will destroy you in the most touching way. This family has been through so much together already, and they’re ready for whatever’s coming next.

8. Justina Machado deserves to be a STAR

This is not Justina’s first TV show, since she’s popped up before on Six Feet Under, ER, Private Practice, and more recently, Jane the Virgin. But, it’s here on ODAAT where she really gets to flex her acting chops, and does so with flying colors. Her character is so well-rounded and developed that her struggles are your struggles, and you really understand just how hard she’s working to keep her family together. It shows.

9. You can watch the entire series in six and a half hours

The first season has 13 episodes, and each are roughly a half hour long. That means, from beginning to end, you can watch everything in six and a half hours. That’s one night of your life dedicated to ODAAT. That’s coming home on a Friday night, ordering a pizza, watching three episodes, getting the pizza at your front door, and then watching 10 more episodes as you eat pizza. How does that not sound like the dream evening??

So what are you waiting for? Binge away!

Remember that time when Pence made a last minute decision to not sign an application for a grant that would have made preschool in Indiana more accessible and help fix our crumbling infrastructure?

[lovato-lesbian]

from what i’m seeing of report backs from the airport protests, there is a significant shift in behaviour and attitudes compared to the normal protest culture, far more significant than a broken window or slightly larger black bloc. 

these are spontaneous protests in countless cities not normally known for protest including many people who have never protested before or who have only attended sanctioned protests before. people are directly contesting the actions of government and its enforcers at the site they are being carried out; this is as close to mass direct action as we’ve seen in a long time. while there are exceptions, many crowds are spontaneously occupying and shutting down infrastructure, terminals, and roads, breaking out of caged “free-speech zones” and disobeying direct orders of police.

liberals and previously “nonpolitical” people are joining in chants linking american borders to palestine, calling for “no borders no nations” and challenging the police with “who do you serve” and “who protects us.” they are (again with exceptions) realizing that law enforcement in the police and DHS may not be on their side and challenging that authority. they’re also not being pacified by concessions and constitutional measures. a legal stay has been disobeyed by law enforcement and people are taking note of that, and not dispersing to place their faith in the normal processes of government.

this is what radicalisation looks like. not as we’re perhaps used to seeing it, but in a new and more open form. maybe it dissipates briefly but i’m not convinced this is just a momentary flare-up. i think real changes in people’s belief systems and how they relate to power and authority is occurring right now as they gain these new experiences and internalize them.

people are flexing and testing power and authority, and realizing they have far more ability to contest it than they previously thought

How long do you think they can hold her out for?
