Welcome back to Mid-Week Meditations, Lifehacker’s weekly dip into the pool of stoic wisdom, and how you can use its waters to reflect on and improve your life.
We teach kids to fear animals like rats, snakes, spiders, etc. that are harmless 99% of the time but do we ever warn them about the real danger
WHY DOES IT HAVE TEETH ON ITS TONGUE
I am a gooseologist and I can tell you that geese live on a healthy diet of children’s souls which can only be properly chewed with unholy tongue teeth
All Steve wants is to draw birds in central park by the light of the setting sun while Bucky lies in his lap and this trash compactor has the nerve to act like Steve really wants to be standing here cleaning up Tony Stark’s garbage mistakes.
^This is the best MCU related sentence I have ever written.
No, I really shouldn't. None of those colors look good on me.
H&M has a plethora of affordable staple items, but it’s even better when they mark them down further. Right now, pick up this rib-knit sweater in Light Blue, Powder Pink, Orange, or Green for just $13. Or maybe just get all four and be set for fall.
Dale Hansen is a fucking treasure. He admitted he was a childhood victim of sexual abuse in the hopes that it would encourage others to come forward and seek help. He has been an ardent supporter of scholar-athletes and of gay players in the NFL and of trans athletes.
“I’m not always comfortable when a man tells me he is gay; I don’t understand his world. But I do understand that he is part of mine.”
Question: Where you around when Aquald/Kaldur was first introduced? Because I was, and I remember people calling him “Blaqualad” from the second his face appeared on the promo.
Not to mention many people had said he was going to die by the end of the season anyway. He was either hated or ignored once the show started, and once he took the position of leadership, a VERY popular trope was that he would die a glorious death so that Robin could take his “rightful place” as head of the team.
There are plenty of other examples. Take the hatred Miles Morales got (and still gets) even though both he and Peter have been able to exist together.
Take the hatred Riri Williams got during her introduction.
Most people are more than happy to erase Duke Thomas as one of Bruce Wayne’s “kids” despite the fact that he’s an original character who isn’t taking anyone’s mantel.
Cyborg has been criticized as “not belonging” to the Justice League since the beginning of New 52. Hell, if anything, ya’ll should be happy that Cyborg’s there, because now they don’t have to racebend a white person. But, nope.
Then there was Rue from the Hunger Games (played by Amandla Stenberg) who was black in both the movie and the source material, and yet people still went to twitter to express how they “couldn’t sympathize” with her anymore.
We’ve got Michael Burhnam, who’ll be leading the new Star Trek series and people are pissed off about a Black woman in the lead role.
Let’s not forget how the Star Wars fandom felt about having a “Black Stormtrooper” before anyone knew anything about who John Boyega was even playing.
If you were in the Glee fandom, you’ll probably remember how much shit Mercedes got for being just as ambitious as the rest of the Glee kids. And then of course, there were the people saying she didn’t “deserve” Sam Evans.
And then there’s the entire cast of The Get Down that is routinely slept on.
There are the people who demonize T’challa and call him selfish for wanting to Avenge his father (who by the way was the acting monarch of a nation, so T’challa’s quest for answers was also a way of preventing a political fallout.)
And I haven’t even mentioned Sam Wilson, James Rhodes, Mike Peterson, Luke Cage, John Stewart, Amanda Waller, Ben Sisko, or Ororo Munroe. I’ll give you a hint…all of those characters are crapped on and held to a ridiculously high standard that white characters aren’t held to.. .
So, instead of saying “Make your own original characters” instead, ya’ll can just say, “I don’t want Black people in my stories”

Donald Trump, a floating turd, finally started acknowledging the absolute devastation in Puerto Rico on Monday night, mainly by calling attention to the island’s debt, as though Hurricane Maria was just trying to collect. In his tweets, Trump neglected to mention how he has contributed to that debt to the tune of $30…
Staggering numbers of poor and black voters reported that Wisconsin’s voter ID law kept them from voting in the 2016 presidential election in a state that Donald Trump won by just one percentage point, according to a new study from the University of Wisconsin.
Apparently, it’s a worse offense for police to protest police extrajudicially executing black people than it is for police to extrajudicially execute black people.
Here we are why all cops are bastards. In order to be a “good cop” you are required to support white suppremacy or else you will get reprimanded.
