People Look So Different Once You Don’t Care About Them Anymore

Schools are six times more likely to suspend Black girls than white girls. 

Schools are three times more likely to suspend Black boys than white boys. 

There are more security officers than counselors in three of the five largest school districts in the U.S.

The statistics won’t come as a shock to those aware of the “school-to-prison pipeline,” a series of policies and practices that push students, especially those most at-risk, from classrooms to the criminal justice system at a young age. 

It’s time we change the conversation and the policy that leads to more incarceration, inequality and hopelessness for so many.

Join the Issue Time discussion on the school to prison pipeline.

Space is the place: [by ufo-the-truth-is-out-there]

I think the worst part about dating someone while being incredibly insecure is that every person, no matter who it is, you never, ever feel good enough. You could be dating them for years, but every time an opportunity comes to get in your own head, you are reminded of that sick feeling in your gut. That they could have someone so much better than you. Even if you somehow overcome the feeling, you will always have that moment where you second guess yourself. Do they really want me??? What about that person they were talking to??? They’re attractive. Much better fit. It’s not even a jealousy thing because you never want to be that person that controls someone you love, and you don’t wanna tell them who they can and can’t talk to. So you’re just left trying to reassure the person that you trust them. And its REALLY NOT THEM. IT’S YOU.

I really miss summer ✌🏼☀️

the day we break up, that day forth, i can’t tell you how I feel. i am not even entitled to know how you feel. but that doesn’t mean i would stop loving you. but that doesn’t mean my heart would beat any slower when i hear your name.but that doesn’t mean i’d stop hoping its a text from you every time my phone vibrates. but that doesn’t mean i stop loving you. it means i no longer can tell you i love you. and that sucks. because it means i no longer can hear you stay those words to me.
