A reminder that even in his lifetime, Christopher Columbus was considered so horrendously cruel that the people responsible for the goddamn Spanish Inquisition went, “oh my god, WHAT IS WRONG WITH YOU???” and had him arrested and stripped of his titles.

Remembering in 3rd grade when my mommy made me an umeboshi 🍙 & my white classmates made fun of me. Then the most popular boy in class said, “That looks good. If you don’t eat that, I will.” and the kids backed off. Cory Smits, wherever you are I hope you’re having a good Sunday.
