'Humans need fantasy to be human. To be the place where the falling angel meets the rising ape. '

this graphic is everything. this is why people overestimate the prevalence of violent crime and terrorism and support punitive police measures.

they are quite literally distorting reality in order to keep you scared of the wrong things.

Gargoyles had a solid fanbase when it was airing. But over thirty years later, its greatest legacy lies in it being proof that if you tell kids stories in a way that respects their ability to comprehend not only plot but sincere emotion, they'll embrace your work forever.
The "Gargoyles" animated series premiered on this day (Oct. 24) in 1994 with "Awakening, Part One!" One of the best and most influential shows of the 1990s, this fan-favorite cartoon offered-up mature and complex characters, incredible casting, and strong story-telling! #Gargoyles

"Es ist empörend und ein Skandal, dass sich in der Hauptstadt des Deutschen Reiches 78.000 Juden [...] herumtreiben können. Sie verderben nicht nur das Straßenbild, sondern auch die Stimmung. [...] Ganz abstellen wird man das erst dadurch, dass man sie beseitigt." Goebbels, Tagebücher, 20.08.1941.

Deutsche Leitmedien agieren rassistischen. Journalist*innen dieser Leitmedien agieren rassistisch.

Es ist an der Zeit denen klare Kante zu zeigen!

Kinder von Migranten sind kleine Paschas, Geflüchtete nehmen den Deutschen die Zahnarzttermine weg, Wir müssen mehr abschieben damit sich das Stadtbild wieder ändert.

Ich kann mich an keinen anderen Bundeskanzler mit solchen rassistischen Entgleisungen erinnern.

Dad’s books are full of empathy, common sense, and a healthy suspicion of the powerful. But at its heart his work is also about how systems keep people poor while pretending it’s their own fault. So I hope Kemi’s taking notes as well as reading the jokes.

What a final, what a World Cup! Absolutely brilliant. Well done Red Roses, that was another physically dominant performance. 👍

I hope this tournament finally lifts up Womens Rugby to the level of prominence it deserves.

I just saw a comment that said "I don't support what happened to Charlie, but Charlie supported what happened to Charlie."

THAT ... that's what I've been trying to put into words.
