Glass Beach is a protected beach, but not for its natural beauty. Located just outside of Fort Bragg, California it became an illegal dumping ground for residents in the late nineteenth century who lacked any kind of refuse pickup. It wasn’t until 1967 that the illegal dump was finally closed by city leaders and the local water board. The beach was cleaned of large refuse, but small pieces of glass and plastic that had been worn down by the elements remain, giving the beach its name and its unusual beauty.

shut right up
Hah I called it Draw Anything instead of Draw Something.
Draw Anything is the game where you idly scribble some stuff on a nearby piece of paper and then throw it in the bin either the next time you clean your desk, or immediately if you look back at the paper and realised you’ve drawn
I’m usually pretty good at understanding and accepting other people’s points of view on things but I just don’t get any justification for discrimination against gender or sexuality
I don’t understand
this isn’t a revolutionary thought at all, I was just thinking about it
so a lot of people (usually religious homophobes) use the argument “kids don’t need to know about gay people, introducing gay characters into kids’ tv etc is inappropriate because they don’t need to know about sexuality at such a young age”.
this argument would totally hold up except that there are straight relationships in ALMOST EVERYTHING KIDS WATCH. in cartoons, girls like boys and boys like girls. in Disney films, it’s men and women falling in love and getting married. and it’s not about SEXUALITY, it’s about RELATIONSHIPS. when kids see a Disney princess and prince getting married, they don’t think it’s about sex, they think it’s about LOVE. they’d think the exact same if they saw two men getting married, or two women.
plus, y’know, if kids are introduced from a young age to the idea that some people are gay and that’s just how the world is, they’re not going to be homophobic. kids find the idea of gay people VERY EASY to accept, because it’s not a difficult concept. and when they grow up they’re going to be like “hey, this is just how life works, no need to be a dick about any of it!”. even if you think that being gay is awful and unnatural, you can’t deny that it EXISTS. by teaching kids that it’s wrong, literally all you’re doing is inspiring hate, because you KNOW you’re never going to rid the world of gay people, you’re just going to nurture a lovely, hateful little homophobe.
