I CAN EXPLAIN THIS so basically there’s this type of bonnet called a ‘poke bonnet’ and they look like this:
and in the regency there was this trend of the front part getting longer and longer until you couldn’t really see the wearer’s face… and people have been mean for all history and love to really deride and rip into the fashion trends of young women, so satirical cartoons like the one above popped up that were basically trying to say ‘hurr dburr stupid poke bonnets soon we won’t even be able to talk to women unless we stick our damn FACES INSIDE THEIR HATS!’
and yeah so that’s why we have a drawing of what looks like women sucking men’s heads off floating around tumblr
let’s bring back poke bonnets so ppl will have to leave me alone
I think the most compelling part of this comic is the two women in the background who are having a conversation without their bonnets even touching but all the men feel they have the right to invade the women’s spaces as much as possible
i know right? the woman in pink is clearly not having a good time
Satirical Regency Artist: Women, if these hats get any bigger, it’s going to be very difficult for men to mash our faces right up against yours!
Regency Hatter: *maintains eye-contact as she sews a massive goddamn brim onto a new hat* Imagine that.
1985: National Geo make millions from ‘Afghan Girl’ portrait
2016: Still has the status of a refugee and may spend 14 years in jail because of her papers
I fucking hate this picture and everything it represents. Steve McCurry made millions off of this picture and its what launched his photojournalism career into the spotlight. While the woman in this picture got absolutely NOTHING and lived an awful and horrific existence. And calling her “Afghan Girl” is so disrespectful. Her name is Sharbat Gula and her life could have been made 1000X easier had McCurry shared his wealth with her - or even if he couldn’t find her, to share it with of refugees who he exploited. And honestly the idea of a white man going into wartorn nations (that are that way bc of american imperialism) to take pictures of refugees to profit off of their pain and trauma is gross
liberals be like: who wants to get evicted at gun point because your poor, but by a good cop!!!
Our Pink Cops will evict you at gunpoint, but they’ll be LGBT-friendly about it!
A cop, pinning me to the wall and dislocating my shoulder: WHAT ARE YOUR PRONOUNS WHAT ARE YOUR PROUNOUNS
Lmao, yall joke, but when I got arrested and ziptied being lead to the paddywagon the cop was askin info on the way and he’s like: “what’re uh…yer pronouns and all..”
And I was like “wait what…..why do you need that?” Nd he’s like “errr uh we have to ask.”
So many people never ask and just assume, so I almost fell for the trick, I really was like almost giddy about being asked completely forgetting where I was, but then I had to jump back into the closet cuz i realized it didn’t seem right, so I said “uh……he”.
I found out later that other GNC people who gave their true pronouns were all placed in isolation and subjected to worse treatment than the rest of us, including assault.
Liberals are our enemy too.
yuuuuuuuup! I was asked my pronouns when arrested too and same deal trans prisoners are put in solitary so fuck that shit!
it’s actually inverted out of respect!! - plimbko the elf requested to be hanged from an upside down tree because he felt himself unworthy of a death in the same manner as santa
This is the scariest addition to a post I think I’ve ever seen
