Anonymous asked:
Why do you (all fat activists) keep commenting on how you are marginalised and a minority, in the United states alone 7 in 10 Americans are obese or overweight, which mean you are a majority, besides the obvious facts I just stated, according to "October 27, 1999, Annual Deaths Attributable to Obesity in the United States" "The estimated number of annual deaths attributable to obesity among US adults is approximately 280,000" its FACTS, and SCIENCE, look it up.
When did I become a “fat activist” lmao just because I happen to be fat and I don’t care about some random person on the internet’s opinions about my body? Not only that but I have literally never said that, and I have never seen another person say that. Is there another 4chan fathate thread about me because we all know how the last one went.
When we say that the United States is joining Syria and Nicaragua by not participating in the Paris agreement, I think it’s not fair to leave it at that, because neither of them refused to sign for reasons anything like the selfish ones of the United States.
Syria was under sanctions making it complicated to even attend, and on top of that were embroiled in intense civil warfare and not in a great position to make a commitment like that. They didn't disagree with it, but were never involved with the deal in the first place.
Nicaragua actually felt that the Paris agreement was not strict enough, arguing that they didn’t want to be complicit in a voluntary effort that didn’t properly allocate the responsibility to large countries for being the ones who poisoned the environment in the first place, nor impose a punishment on anyone failing to comply with the standards. Nicaragua is one of the countries that’s most affected by climate change but least responsible, and they felt that wasn’t fairly reflected in the accord.
The United States is the ONLY country that has rejected the Paris accord because of the belief that our environment is less important than our profit. Even oppressive regimes and the poorest nations in the world are smarter than that, or at least know when to keep their mouths shut and play along. The USA is not really in the league of Syria or Nicaragua, but alone in the refusal to cooperate out of pure greed.
Apparently Nicaragua is closing in on being 80%+ reliant on renewable energies which is one of the most impressive amongst nations, I believe I read somewhere.
It’s actually 90%!
According to the World Bank, Nicaragua is aiming to have 90 percent clean renewable energy by 2020, mostly geothermal (it’s covered in volcanoes) and wind (it’s very windy I guess).
So I’m concerned that people don’t realize just how messed up the situation at Standing Rock really is. The United States signed treaties acknowledging and agreeing that there are certain areas of land that were never ceded to them. These areas do not belong to the United States. They belong to a sovereign nation governed by indigenous people. The land that the Dakota Access Pipeline runs through is not part of the US. It is part of the Lakota nation. That means it is essentially a separate country.
Please imagine if the US wanted to build a pipeline from Washington to Alaska and they went through part of Canada to get there. Canadians protested, saying they have no right to be there and they’re destroying their water, and in response the USA sent militarized police to attack, harass, and harass these protesters, then arrested them for trespassing… on their own land.
That is what’s happening. This is an invasion, and the police are interfering on behalf of a foreign oil company.
i read this book in the 4th grade called “yo millard fillmore” and it was about memorising the presidents and i can’t remember fuck all about the other presidents but i will never in my life forget Millard Fillmore, 13th president of the United States, in office 1850 - 1853, b. 1800, d. 1874.

No big deal or anything but CW Seed pretty much uploaded every Whose Line US episode on their site. “All the Drew and Aisha, too” as they put it. You can watch them all for free. You do have to be in the United States to access the site but there are plug ins and proxies around as we all know.
Sixty-nine years ago, on June 8, 1953, Michigan experienced the deadliest tornado in state history. The tornado resulted in 116 fatalities and 844 injuries
This was an extremely rare and deadly tornado. Michigan does experience frequent tornados in the spring and summer months, but this one was an F5 and killed 116 people, making it one of the top 10 deadliest tornadoes in the United States and the deadliest in Michigan history
