please reblog/like this if you post:

I’m trying to find new content for this blog, and I’d love to talk with you about it too!

i’m watching an art theft documentary and they’re interviewing this art history professor from new york who was asked to go with the fbi to authenticate a rubens that had been stolen but it was a sting operation so they had to pretend like they weren’t the fbi, that they were some private buyer about to pay $3.5 million for it, and the fbi was like “this is a VERY delicate operation because you never know how they will react to what you have to say so let the agent do all of the talking, don’t say a word to anyone just nod if it’s the rubens, the last operation we did the guy in your position got shot because things went wrong in a second” and then it cuts to the professor’s interview and he says “i wasn’t going to fly down to miami to be a part of an undercover fbi sting operation to handle what could be rubens’s aurora and just NOT say anything. i was gonna have to ad lib a little” and then he tells the interviewer that when he & the fbi agent got to the hotel while he was examining the painting he started lecturing the other people, first on how badly they had wrapped it, and then about like how it had been painted, the history of it, what the subject was and what she was doing, etc etc, and he was like “i hadn’t taught a class on rubens in 15 years, so for me it was like being back in the classroom except my students couldn’t leave” 

Okay but like, just imagine you’re majoring in History, your unrequited lover in STEM.

The heated debates because you are both far too passionate about your major. But the giggly and soft atmosphere numbs the seriousness.

The shitty puns and jokes. However you both have to explain them, and that’s fine because anything to hear them talk about something they love. Eyes twinkling, wide smile, the lot.

And you both take a vow to use science as well as history to discover if Napoleon was actually short.

Then you both fall in love. Even more.

And. Yeh. Just a thought.

I want to be politically informed and educated but I also wanna have a good day and be in a good mood. Do you see my problem?

Minneapolis, MN. May 28th 2020

Since I am getting attacked for telling the truth.

Remember when Captain America civil war came out and people started writing T'challa fics. Some black girls , including me, would ask some of these imagine pages to write an imagine with a black oc or a black reader, and we get:

" I don't know how to write a black people, sorry"

And we had to read those fics and use our imagination.

Then, when black panther movie came out, black writers finally got the representation in the media , that they deserve, and wrote fics dedicated to black folks that were feeling left out. What we got?

"Yall are racist for leave out us white people"

You see the pattern here? White people are always in the forefront of the media, and when they don't get the attention that they always get, we are labeled as the bad guys. I rest my case.

Chaotic academia is ignoring the deadline and just thinking "these essays get submitted when they get submitted"

You should be outraged. You should be enraged and if you are not, if the senseless killing of the black community at the hands of our police force does not anger you please reevaluate your humanity.

To be unmoved by the current issues of our society is a privilege. To prioritize looting and damage to property over lost black lives and police brutality is to lack humanity.

Please evaluate and educate yourself, this is a major issue and we need serious reform and revolution in this country.

You can’t love the Romantics and academia and remain ignorant and complacent.
