i hate this fucking "i'm just a girl" brand of feminism bc it is so easy for young women in their 20s who are afraid of big changes and personal growth to revert to depending on their gender and the associated fragility of it so that they can make it through life when really they're just trapping themselves in a position where they cannot and will not grow out of that fear.

[leeknowslaughh]

“I’m just a girl.” No, you’re a 25 year old woman who is afraid of change, and that’s okay. It’s okay to be afraid, to not know how things work. It is not okay to dig your heels in to avoid growth and scary change by putting yourself in a box dictated by the perceived weaker attributes of your gender. Please stop.

I took my meds too close to bedtime again and I need you all to know the dream I had last night involved Robin Williams becoming the new Defense Against The Dark Arts teacher at Hogwarts. Not, a character portrayed by Robin Williams, just Robin Williams as himself running around Hogwarts doing wandless magic and being as loud and big as possible because and I quote before I forget:

“Listen, children, I’m not saying all this bad shit that is happening isn’t scary and you shouldn’t be concerned–because you should!–but I’m telling you this now for free. Life is a boggart, it’s the biggest boggart of them all. You never know what it’s going to look like one moment to the next. And sometimes you just gotta laugh. It’s okay to laugh. It’s part of the grieving process. You need to grieve before you can heal. But it’s okay to laugh while you’re doing it.”

I didn’t wake up right after that, some more stuff happened in a hazy sort of way as the dream began to dissolve into conciousness, but I remember him yelling Expecto Patronum as he punched a Death Eater in the face. Because sometimes, evidently, you have to make your own happy memories.

US Concentration Camp Map - Google My Maps

This map shows every known US Customs & Border Protection facility in the South Border states. It ranks each according to the potential for abusive conditions at the location. This map is intended to be a tool for politicians, journalists, doctors, and activists interested in inspecting these facilities. The locations in dark purple are confirmed concentration camps where significant human rights abuses have been documented. The red markers are locations which have a very high likelihood of having conditions which would designate them as concentration camps. Yellow items are facilities which have a significant chance of being concentration camps. While there is no indication that the white marker locations are especially likely to be concentration camps, this does not mean they are not. Please note that not every facility in this list is currently being used to detain immigrants, but many existing camps are either at one of these addresses or are being managed there, and the potential for expansion is ever present. This is only a partial list of potential camps, as others are operated by different branches of the government, as well as by private companies.

Google maps isn’t even bothering to cushion it.

I can’t believe this Princess of Thieves erasure

she cuts off her own hair and dresses like a boy to protect the crown prince

also she’s amazing at archery. legolas whomst?

I recorded this on VHS commercials and all and watched it pretty much until the tape wore out. Totally in a heterosexual way though.

When I was 12, a drunk adult man shouted “You’re the hottest girl I’ve ever seen!” at me.

My reaction was to turn around and shout back, “Then OBVIOUSLY you’ve never seen Kiera Knightley!” and in retrospect I should have realized some things sooner than I did.

This reminds me of the time my boyfriend and I were walking around a store and he was wearing a shirt with a shark face on it. A group of 4 children followed us around the store whispering about shark man. They made up powers for him. Now I’m left with the tale of Sharkman
