‘Beyond reasonable doubt’: King Richard III’s remains found buried beneath England parking lot

He wore the English crown, but he ended up defeated, humiliated and reviled. Now things are looking up for King Richard III. Scientists announced Monday that they had found the monarch’s 500-year-old remains under a parking lot in the city of Leicester — a discovery Richard’s fans say will rewrite the history books.

University of Leicester researchers say tests on a battle-scarred skeleton unearthed last year prove “beyond reasonable doubt” that it is the king, who died at the Battle of Bosworth Field in 1485, and whose remains have been missing for centuries.

“Richard III, the last Plantaganet King of England, has been found,” said the university’s deputy registrar, Richard Taylor. (AP Photo/ University of Leicester)

For fans of skeletons and old kings.

Because equality starts at home.

It was the most sincere display of appreciation that my five-year-old son has ever shown. He looked me straight in the eyes and said a very mature and worldly “thank you.” The words were full of honesty, relief, happiness and a little bit of anguish.

“You’re welcome, baby,” I said looking at him with a smile and masking the pain I was feeling. “You look so pretty.”
My gender creative son was thanking me for buying him a dress to wear to Christmas Eve dinner.
He had eyed the ensemble weeks ago and asked to wear it for Christmas so he could take “fancy pictures by the fireplace and the tree.

I told him no. Not because the outfit was made for girls and he is a boy, but because had I bought it then he would have wanted to wear it immediately and often and when we finally sat down to Christmas Eve dinner it would have been thrashed.

He talked about his “Christmas outfit” nonstop and asked everyday if it was time to go buy it.

Today was the day. We got home and both ran up the stairs to my bedroom with its mirrored closets. I sat on the floor removing price tags while he tore off his “school clothes,” which he wears as a disguise when out in society so that people will think he is all boy. He wears “school clothes” so that he won’t get teased, have to sit by himself at the lunch tables and so he will get invites to birthday parties. More than anything he wants to be thought of as “normal.” But, he’s not.

He closed his eyes as I put on the black bubble skirt covered in sequins, the red long sleeved t-shirt that says “JOY” on it in glitter and the black sequined vest. I spun him to the mirror. He opened his eyes, took himself in and then thanked me.

My first reaction was to smile. He reminded me of when I was a little girl and wanted a show stopping dress for the holidays. My dresses were made of scratchy fabric that made noise when I moved. I wore white socks with lace trim and stiff, shiny Mary Janes. I learned at an early age that beauty is pain.

My son looked sassy and beautiful. He looked natural, happy and truly comfortable for the first time that day. Then I felt pain. If the rest of the world could be more empathetic, accepting, welcoming and kind, my son could be this happy and comfortable all of the time — because then my son could be a boy who dresses like a girl and not have to think twice about it. The world isn’t like that.

Other people can’t see the beauty in my son in a dress. I haven’t always seen the beauty either. Two and a half years ago this scene from my life wouldn’t have happened. I wouldn’t have bought girl clothes for my son. Never. Ever. Back then, I felt uneasy when he played with Barbies. When he tried to dress feminine, I’d hand him his brother’s masculine hand-me-downs and tell him to put them on. I didn’t give him choices because I knew that his choices would be pink with sparkle and rhinestones. His choices would smell like the raspberry vanilla body spray he snuck from bathroom and hid under his bed.

Then I realized that my actions were telling him “you can’t be you because I want you to be what society wants you to be.”

My husband and I changed the way we were parenting. There was something unique about our son that we could choose to support or destroy. We had to follow his lead. He led us to the pink aisles at Target; and, that’s not a dangerous, harmful, unhealthy place for a boy to be.

My son’s Christmas dress is hanging in his closet. He checks on it before and after school and a few other times each day. On Christmas Eve, a dozen members of our family will gather around the table in honor of religious beliefs and to celebrate the passing of one year and the start of another. It will be the first holiday that my son will join us at the table dressed as a girl. We won’t care. We will tell him that he is beautiful, inside and out. And, we’ll mean it.

xoxo, C.J.’s Mom
Raising my rainbow ♥

PARENTING DONE RIGHT.

This is the sweetest thing.

And that is a sweet outfit.

What a wonderful gift - to be able to love someone as they are, and not how you or others would have them be.

do you ever think of someone as your bff and you think you talk all the time about everything and you think they think the same way about you and you feel like you’re so close and then the crippling fear sets in and you start to worry that they probably have way more friends that they’re closer to and you aren’t really that special at all

Today, a female great white shark had her fins hacked off in Inhambane, Mozambique (South Africa). Nets had been put up in the area by Chinese shark fin traders, as South Africa is known as the White Shark capital of the world and ,surely, their huge fins bring in pretty pennies to those who can barely make a living. This shark was dragged to shore and left to slowly suffocate. White Sharks have been listed as a protected species in South Africa since 1991, they are one of the most important predators of the sea. Their decline is not natural selection, it is completely human caused. It’s our fault.

This is horrendous. If you don’t think shark finning is an issue that needs to be addressed, please read up on it. Put your fears, your dislikes to the side.If these pictures were of a lion, of a wolf, of a human, how would you feel?This poor girl deserved to live, deserved to breed, not die in humiliation.

I’ve stated many times on my blog that I respect the cultural aspect of shark finning, I really do. But there are too many people in this world to abide by traditions that were deemed valid back when the number of humans wasn’t at a disgustingly high number.

Read more about this here.

it makes me really fricking angry that this thing has only a handful of notes god

Poor sweet baby girl.

She didn’t
deserve that.

No Shark deserves that :(

As stupid as I’m going to sound my first thought was “Oh God no, sharks are so cute.”

I’ve never liked people.

Just awful. Reblogging, and hope this gets more notes.

How do you make yourself happy? I have no reason not to be.

this made me reevaluate my eyesight. glasses needed.

My mom always wonders why I forgive and forget so easy. And this explains it. Just because someone seems all fine and dandy doesn’t mean they aren’t dying inside. You never know who is hurting.

I’m trying to read all your comments and you guys are all beautiful and perfect and if any of you want to talk please tell me

How do I tell my parents that my little sister killed herself cause of them and society? I lost my best friend omg I can’t just reblog this like she said I’m off here for alittle while

I cried when I read this reblog this . What if this was your little sister?

I’m crying.

Wait, am I reading this right? The girl was 10? God damn, society. This isn’t okay :(

This is just heartbreaking. A 10 year old killing herself? That is just fucking disgusting and appalling. My little sister is 12, I can’t even begin to imagine what this would be/feel like. When are people honestly going to learn? Do you find comfort into a bullying a 10 year old into killing herself? How would you feel if that was your little sister or brother? How would you fucking feel? Just think.

first post to ever make me cry instantly, this is so horrible how someone could make a 10 year old kill their self

I am in tears, oh my god…

My heart dropped. :/

Not clicking alt reblog. too important. I can’ even believe this, but at another point, I seriously CAN. I know people in my school my age who I’ve literally bluntly asked if they would care if something like this happened. They replied simple “Not at all”. People don’t care. this is what i hate. People say that these people have esteem issues, but maybe that wsa then, not now. Now, people are just so stupid and cruel that they don;t know what they do can hurt people, and don’t understand the real effect of suicide. never imagined if their little brother or sister did this. Or their mother, father, best friend, cousin, anyone you love.

people

don’t

care

everyone should reblog this. This should have the most likes. It should have more than shirtless guys, or perfect clothes. This is reality, and what society is doing to us. A 10 year old killed herself, my sister is 10, i couldn’t imagine losing her to suicide, this needs to stop

oh god, im sobbing, rest in peace amanda xxxxxxx

rip beautiful girl. ♥

Holy shit. This omg. I can’t even. :’(

This is one of the most painful things i’ve ever read, it made me break down into tears. My sister is the same exact age and to think “what if that was my sister” kills me! This girl will be in my heart forever because i can just tell she had a strong soul and was a strong person. I look up to this little girl for how strong she was. I can tell just by this note that she was forced to grow up to fast. To have her stolen from are world so early in her life and at all is horrible. Society did NOT just kill the teenager, it killed the innocent. Bless this child just for her short existence.

My inbox is getting hungry... can you give him a snack?

WARNING to anyone who feeds their pets PURINA pet food. Maggots have been found in the dog food and the cat food. It has been making animals sick and even killing some but Purina is refusing to recall their products. I found tonight (1/28/13) that MY bag of Purina One pet food for my cat has an infestation of maggots in it. Please check your pets food if you buy Purina. I'm returning my bag and switching brands. Not a happy pet owner right now.
