Well fuck, who’s gonna tell them that Super Man is an illegal immigrant?
THAT.
The DC trinity is a Jewish anti-gun activist, a illegal immigrant whose arch-nemesis is a billionaire industrialist, and a bisexual feminist pacifist.
can we print this on shirts please
Wonder Woman is far from a pacifist. She’s actually the only one out of the trinity that doesn’t have an issue with killing, as long as it’s absolutely necessary and justified. She just believes in love and compassion above all else.
Can we bring this back? He’s the reason I started carrying knives everywhere… One time he saw me inside of a liquor store and I refused to step outside until he finally left.. AN HOUR LATER. He just stood there waiting for me to leave the store. Ugh. I’m glad I’m across the country from this creep.
Oh he also stopped by my work EVERYDAY to ask me out and EVERYDAY I would say “no thank you” it got to the point that whenever I saw his car pull up I would tell my boss and then go hide in the back room. He honestly terrified me.
Men are fucking terrifying, I once had some random dude stalk me at work because I smiled at him. … something you get in trouble for if you don’t do when in customer service!
what the actual fuck
Everytime a guy tries to describe himself to me as a nice guy and that i shouldn’t be afraid, my warning siren in my head gets louder.
protip, people who are actually nice, don’t usually feel the need to tell everyone how nice they are.
Men feel so entitled sometimes. It’s scary to watch the interactions sometimes.
okay I understand this for the most part but seriously some people needa fuck off generalizing men as this terrible group of people. “men feel so entitled sometimes” like bitch you can’t tell me women don’t think they own everything every once in a while too don’t make this a gender thing
It is a gender thing. Why is it that 90% of the men I meet are entitled to some degree that’s toxic? Whereas 3% of women I’ve met are toxically entitled. This is about gender. It’s not a common thing to hear that a woman came into a man’s work just to ask him out daily. She doesn’t wait outside buildings for him. She doesn’t harass him constantly instead of just taking no for an answer. Yet almost every single guy that has ever been interested in me can’t take a hint, thinks they’re the shit, thinks they’re better than me when there shouldn’t be any competition. Women don’t make this shit up. Why is it that you can ask the majority of women and they’ll tell you that they’ve met guys like this or like this in some degree? It’s because men aren’t shit because they have some weird entitled complex.
It is a gender thing, and as men we need to stop it. I grew up with sisters so I saw it firsthand. Dudes would get their names off credit card receipts at restaurants and ask around to get their numbers. Call the house non-stop til me or one of my brothers threatened to beat that ass. I’ve had to run dudes out of parking lots because they were waiting for a female co worker to come outside. It’s real. Don’t get angry if they’re not talking to you, just be part of the solution. Your boy tell you he riding by a girl’s work to ask her out? Tell him to leave her alone. Your nephew riding by his ex’s house to see who she with? Pull him to the side and say that stalking shit gotta go. The truth is half the shit our friends do we would call a woman a crazy bitch for doing. So call your friend a crazy bitch too. There’s a time and place and work ain’t it. And if she say no then take that no. It don’t mean maybe. Pressure is not sweet or romantic, it perpetuates rape culture. Sorry I rambled so long. But be part of the solution.
Do you know how many dogs I’ve met that get scared or anxious around men because in their previous home men hit them? A lot, and they are very protective of the women who have adopted them now.
Men who are violent towards women are often violent towards animals as well. They think we’re all chattel. If a man wants you to choose between your dog or cat or him, dump the guy. Those animals will love you for the rest of your life, loyal and true.
Actually, I have something to add.
The other day I saw a story where a woman was asking why her dogs had suddenly started growling at her boyfriend whenever he was in the same room as her son.
And my immediate thought was ‘that boyfriend has hurt the kid somehow.’
Spoilers: that was exactly the case.
Trust ur dogs when they say something is off.
The first time my sister came to visit, via plane, after I got my dog, pupper growled at her and wouldn’t go near her for the first day. Next visit was by car (two day drive)and pupper LOVED my sister. They snuggled and played and none of us could figure out why the change. We thought maybe the scent of my sisters cat had lingered on her clothes, making that first visit a rough one. Whereas when she came by car, the scent had had time to wear off. Well that was partially true…
Fast forward about six months when I went north to visit my family. My sister walked into my parents’ house and pupper ran to greet my sister. Stopped dead in her tracks and started growling and barking. Hackles raised, full protection mode. My sisters husband had just walked in behind her.
My precious puppy wanted NOTHING to do with him. She barked, growled, ran away, and sat between him and my sister. Y'all my dog had spent maybe a weekend a half around my sister but protected her like this was her flesh and blood.
Eventually, my sister filed for divorce on grounds of “Extreme and repeated mental, emotional, and sexual abuse.” Divorce was final in less than a month because her claims were substantiated.
Trust the dog, honey. They KNOW.
I’ve never owned dogs, but I used to work with horses (which are a lot like big dogs).
There was this one horse I worked with named Tonto. He was a doll. He followed me like a puppy, snuck treats out of my pocket, he was the sweetest thing. We were practically inseparable.
A guy I was considering dating came to visit me one day, and Tonto wanted NOTHING to do with him. Normally well behaved, he shoved himself between us and would NOT let this guy near me. He was stomping, acting really aggressive, and tried to bite the guy. This horse was practically dragging me back toward the barn. At that moment, despite being like, 17, I knew something was up, and ultimately things didn’t pan out for guy and me.
A year later I found out he had lied about his age (he said he was 18 but he was actually 27) he was arrested for sexually assaulting an 11 year old girl.
Today the Department of Awesomely Good Deeds salutes John Wells, an alternative energy and sustainability researcher located in the desert area of Terlingua in SW Texas. John set out a bucket of water with a GoPro in the bottom in order to see what sorts of animals would stop by for a drink.
“Everybody loves water in the desert. I was pleasantly surprised during the edit to see that George made an appearance. I know him from all the other rabbits because of the tiny notch in his ear. A burro just happened to come by in time to be included. Ben went against the script and decided to just nudge the bucket. You can lead a steer to water but you can’t make him drink. Note: The swimming bees were rescued.”
im still pissed off that birds get to spend their days flying about and cats get to sleep for 16 hours a day and im stuck dealing with capitalism and expectations
I worked with toddlers and pre schoolers for three years. Sometimes I accidentally slip and tell a friend to say bye to an inanimate object (“say bye bus!”) & occasionally they unthinkingly just do it.
I’m glad there’s a teacher version of “accidentally called teacher ‘mom’”
the distinction between “crafts” and “fine art” is probably driven by misogyny and the devaluation of women’s labor
art forms that have traditionally been practiced by women like embroidery are devalued and called just “crafts” while art forms that women historically were mostly barred from (painting, sculpture) are “fine art”
Also racism; African and Indigenous art is considered crafts whereas only white forms are “art”
i didn’t know how to put it into words!! there it is! and now when men do needlework or make dolls or knit suddenly it’s ‘contemporary’!
Once called the “King of Bad Taste,” Waters is known for his off-beat cult films Pink Flamingos and Polyester, as well as the more mainstream Hairspray.
TERRY GROSS: Did you use real hairspray in the movie? In the opening scene, everyone is like, spraying their hair, even the boys.
JOHN WATERS: Yeah, it’s real hairspray. We used roughly 60 cases of hairspray in the movie, because there’s 1,100 extras, and when you worked on this movie, it was liking going into the fashion army. The boys had to go in one trailer and get their hair cut, then go to the next thing and get their hair slicked back. The girls had to go in, get it teased. We had Chris Mason who did all the hair, but then we had backups, people who would tease it and style it. You had to go through an assembly line. So a lot of the kids that were in finally got so sick of combing it out that they would just leave it in and they would just go out in Baltimore with those ridiculous hairdos and just figure, “Too bad. I can’t go through this hairdo torture another day, let’s just leave it in!”
I really fucking love Shortfin Mako sharks, okay. They’re the fastest sharks and the best at lunging the fuck right out of the water. they’re also warm-blooded and super smart, but most importantly every image of them breaching looks like someone just photoshopped a shark into the sky really badly
security called me at work today and told me they saw me outside chasing a frog around on the security cameras. i wasnt in trouble they just wanted to let me know they saw me. i didn’t catch him.
