Queer Bookworm

Salutations! I'm Jessica, and this is the blog of a nutty, slightly obsessive, bisexual, teenaged, feminist, fannish, internet activist. Therefore, you ought to expect lots of LGBTQ+, feminism, anti-racism, shipping, and general fandom nonsense, including but not limited to Harry Potter, Star Trek (TOS, Reboot, and DS9), Merlin, Psych, Community, Elementary, various other incarnations of Sherlock Holmes, Avatar: The Last Airbender, Homestuck, The Avengers, Doctor Who, Supernatural, cats, other assorted adorable animals and various other things which have a tendency to be shiny, squeeable and/or very, very gay. Any oppressed group I'm a member of, I'm an activist for, and any that I'm not, I try to be an ally for. Please, call me out on my bullshit whenever it occurs. I'm a seventeen year old high school graduate (skipped a grade, woohoo), and I want to be a novelist or a geneticist. Perhaps both, but probably not at the same time. I tag the shit out of everything, so 1) my blog is apparently an awesome reference point, and 2) I really won't mind if you need me to tag something for Tumblr Savior. I don't do followbacks unless you're fandom or SJ and I like what you post. If you want me to check out your blog, go ahead and ask. I might not follow you (I tried to keep the number of people I follow pretty low), but I will at the very least look at it! Currently single. ;) You can follow me on Twitter, too! I post a lot of stuff on there that never makes it here. Talk to me! I get bored easily; you can help alleviate that boredom! :D I'm most likely to be active between the hours of ten AM and ten PM, Eastern Standard Time.

A charming article on why the poor aren't paying their fair share of taxes →

stfuconservatives:

“Right now about 70 percent of Americans take more out of the tax system than they put into it, according to the Tax Foundation,” Brooks said.”That’s something that should really alarm a lot of Americans.”

thingsmostgrey submitted: “Perhaps if the middle class made a living wage, they would be able to pay more in taxes. Any taxes that I pay comes straight out of my grocery budget. That just isn’t true for the 1%.”

Yeah, poor people pay taxes all the time. You know, sales tax. Also, when they say “pay no taxes,” they mean those people get a full refund on the federal taxes they paid that year. It doesn’t include state taxes and I’m fairly certain it doesn’t include mandatory payments to Medicare and stuff. But if you think about it, if the government owes you money at tax time, they were technically borrowing money from you interest-free for up to a year. So the idea that anyone out there is just absorbing tax dollars without giving anything back into the system is preposterous and hateful.
