Angelina Jolie had a double mastectomy, in case you hadn’t heard. How dare she remove those ticking time bombs from her chest, amiright? Like, hasn’t she learned by now that her body is public domain and we all get to vote on what she does with it? Sheesh, how selfish can ya get.

He said Star Trek is too “philosophical”? Screw that noise.

mechcanuck:

I don’t know when this interview happened but I AM SAD AND ANGRY NOW

The philosophies in Star Trek are kinda part of the actual setting. If you don’t get that, why are you allowed to make Star Trek movies.

Sigh. The whole point of Star Trek is that it’s philosophical. If you don’t want philosophical Science Fiction, there’s plenty of that for you to enjoy, but Star Trek is philosophical. Philosophy is part of Star Trek’s DNA, and if you’re given the captain’s chair, you’d better damn well respect that.

Sorry I’m not sorry for the swear.

Men Can Stop Rape’s new College Bystander Intervention campaign.

Actual good anti rape campaign posters! They don’t shame victims, they ask people to examine their own actions and inactions and protect their friends. And not in a gross excuse for chivalry either, just as people keeping people safe.

I like this.

Yep I agree. I also like how it’s not tying a man taking action around rape to some imaginary alpha male/hypermasculine sort of thing. Like a real man would do such and such.

Hey look! It’s an anti-rape campaign based on being a decent human being! In all seriousness, this is marvelous. I bolded the above for emphasis.

hey look it’s that thing I automatically reblog

Ok I really like that bolded commentary because I see that kind of shit all the time and it’s always bugged me and I think that post is getting to the reason why.

THIS. THIS IS GREAT.

I want to know these dudes!

 Watching the voice with my mother.
Mom: Who's Shakira?
Me: 
Me: 
Me: *takes deep breathe*
Me: Oh baby when you talk like that. You make a woman go mad. So be wise and keep on. Reading the signs of my body
Mom: 
Me: *Gets up and starts dancing*
Me: And I'm on tonight. You know my hips don't lie. And I am starting to feel you boy. Come on lets go, real slow. Don't you see baby asi es perfecto
Mom: 
Me: Oh I know I am on tonight my hips don't lie. And I am starting to feel it's right. All the attraction, the tension. Don't you see baby, this is perfection Shakira, Shakira
Mom: 
Mom: 
Mom: 
Mom: Don't ever do that again.

I’m in Denny’s, and the song says, “All I want to do is have some fun.” And I hear, “All i want to do is kill someone.”

Definitely need sleep.

whoneedsfeminism:

I need feminism because my national anthem tells me that our daughters will never command anything.

And we can do better than that.

“O Canada!
Our home and native land!
True patriot love in all thy sons command”

That’s not exactly “will never command anything.” More, “they changed this in 1914 to say ‘sons’ which included women because women were considered less important at the time.”

The french says it differently, and doesn’t mention gender
“Ô Canada!
Terre de nos aïeux,
Ton front est ceint de fleurons glorieux!”
