Dad: Why do you think they do that?
Girl: Because the companies who make these try to trick the girls into buying the pink stuff instead of stuff boys want to buy. [x]

that awkward moment when a child understands the harm of forcing gender roles better than most grown male politicians.

Always reblog.

I’m surprised that I haven’t reblogged this, to be honest.

I love that last gif.  She looks so frustrated.  Like “Um, hello, obviously girls and boys can like anything why doesn’t anybody get that?”

When I have kids I want them to be like this little girl ok please

two years from now, this will be my niece, the little girl who insisted on buying Darth Vader’s lightsaber with her Christmas money this year even after her parents tried to convince her she should get a barbie like her sister

she rules

7 Great quotes about libraries on photos of beautiful libraries

With libraries around the world in danger of extinction, Flavorwire posted a series of great quotes about libraries from famous writers. I decided to pair them with some of the world’s most beautiful libraries. You’re welcome;

1. Trinity College Library - University of Dublin
2. University Club Library – New York City
3. Admont Abbey Library – Austria
4. Real Gabinete Português de Leitura – Rio de Janeiro
5. Suzzalo Library at the University of Washington – Seattle
6. Yale University’s Beinecke Rare Book & Manuscript Library
7. Canadian Library of Parliament – Ottawa

This is a wonderful set.  I wish United States-based public library administrators and zeitgeist-setters would pay special attention to the Bradbury and Twain quotes.  The dumbing-down and de-archiving of public library collections in this country is making it harder for someone to use the library to give themselves an education in anything beyond pop culture, current news, and what it takes to be a good employee (not a good thinker, or a good person, or a good citizen), and is rapidly eroding our collective memory.
