thebibliosphere:

pathopharmacology:

All I know about Overwatch is what I’ve learned from my dash, so I’m now laboring under the somewhat confused impression that it’s a game where a cute lesbian in tight pants and her tall strong lesbian girlfriend team up with a sexy samurai, a sexy alien robot, and a sensitive buff cowboy to…fight…stuff????

tbh that’s what I’ve gleamed about it as well. And frankly if that’s what it is, is sounds amazing.

i’m so happy about this.

a bunch of mostly cis hetero white guys consciously making a game that flexes to any viewpoint.

choose your own damned adventure.

Seems like you could just move. It is only 4 years. Hmmm, "only". Maybe Mary is on to something.

The obituary of Mary Anne Noland, which said she chose death over the prospect of voting for either Donald Trump or Hillary Clinton, went viral in May 2016.

A Rotating 42-Layer Sculpture of Franz Kafka’s Head by David Cerny

by Christopher Jobson

kafka-1

Located in a busy shopping center in Prague, this twisting and reflective sculpture depicting the head of writer Franz Kafka is the latest kinetic artwork by controversial Czech artist David Cerny. Installed in 2014, the enormous mirrored bust is comprised of 42 independently driven layers of stainless steel and weighs in at some 45 tons. The piece brilliantly reveals Kafka’s tortured personality and unrelenting self doubt that plagued him his entire life. The layering of objects is a common motif for Cerny who built a similar rotating head that also functions as a fountain titled Metalmorphosis. (thnx, Chelsea & Diana!)

Justin Trudeau announces sweeping transgender rights law in Canada

Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau has announced that his government would move forward with a sweeping transgender protections law. The Prime Minister declined to elaborate on the details, but the bill would reportedly offer transgender people necessary, long overdue protections.

Update: Our neighbors to the south are showing us how it’s done as well.

On Tuesday, Mexican President Enrique Peña Nieto signed a constitutional reform paving the way for same-sex marriage … and key transgender rights!
