These men refused to clap for Jenny Beavan, who won an Oscar for costume design in Mad Max: Fury Road because she was rocking a leather jacket instead of a dress to the Oscars. But look at her confident walk!
What a bunch of stuck up pricks
For real though. 😒😒😒
Men ain’t shit.
More power to her.
Add Alice, Kim, Theresa and Vivian (top photo) to the Yearbook Hall of Fame. Cause you wouldn’t ask everyone with the last name Smith if they were related, would you? Fun Fact: There’s actually a simple, historical reason Nguyen is such a common Vietnamese name.
Yet he is the one they “Debunked” until the Photographer had to step in and say “Yes I took those pictures and yes that IS Bernie.”
Lmfaoing that’s wtf I said
New “kid safe” search engine blocks children’s searches seeking help on reporting sexual abuse, calls rape a “bad word”
Censorship of sexuality, especially while simultaneously violence, particularly sexual violence, is left uncensored, and the harmful implication this juxtaposition has on our collective sexual wellness, is something I’ve written a lot about, like here and here. Hell, I’ve even written a book about it.
So when I found out there is a new “kid safe” search engine called Kiddle designed to block adult search returns for children, I feared it had sex-is-bad-and-violence-is-normal disaster written all over it. When I learned the results are handpicked by humans and not a computer broadly banning based on keywords, I was extra curious to see if I was still right. I was.
I typed in a bunch of different searches that a child might reasonably want or *need* to anonymously ask the Internet. Well, I’ll let you see the results for yourself:
“My girlfriend hits me” is also a bad word.
Inquiries about vaginal discharge are, you guessed it, also bad words.
Related bad words: menstrual care, menstrual pads, menstruation, and uterus.
When avoiding a gay dating website in the search results is considered a higher priority of “safety” for children than their homelessness, and you recommend confronting their abusive parents, we have a tish bit of a problem.
If I was 12, typed this into a search engine, and instead of results got a “bad word” finger wagging, I would take the answer to the “is it ok to be bisexual” question as a big fat NO it’s not OK :(
But the human censors apparently allows kids to search for this one under their “kid safe” censorship policies:
So questions about puberty, health, identity, and seeking help for sexual abuse is not “safe”, but kids buying guns is. I feel like a broken record, so I’m going to let you all unpack it this time. Discuss:
WTF is wrong with this search engine? Puberty questions aren’t okay but buying firearms even when you are a kid is okay? Like WTF?
My laundry basket is self-loading.
Self-loading laundry basket. HAHAHAHAHA
My heart says yes but my vocal range says no
OMG. HAHAHA. i can feel you </3
When everything fails, I clean the house.
It is so refreshing!
NASA created retro travel posters for different locations in our solar system in hopes of inspiring young people to imagine a future where common space travel is a possibility.

Benjamin Franklin invented the glass harmonica, an instrument that mechanizes the process of playing notes on the rims of wine glasses. The ‘armonica’ uses bowls on a rotating spindle, which produces a haunting sound when touched with moistened fingers.
Both Mozart and Beethoven composed music for it.

Saving Face (2012), acid attacks on women in Pakistan
Meanwhile, in America, feminists are complaining about how dress codes are oppressive.
You idiots have never experienced oppression, and pray you never do, because this is what it looks like.
As a South Asian American feminist, let me remind everyone that oppression is not a competition.
Just because we fight one type of sexism doesn’t mean we don’t care about other instances of sexism that don’t affect us directly in our day to day lives.
My heart goes out to this woman and the hundreds of other victims like her. I want to educate people about these kinds of incidents. I support organizations that help women like this.
You may think that dress code issues are trivial, but they are related to a larger issue of women’s bodily autonomy, which affects women’s health and safety.
So please, let’s try to bring awareness and bring about change instead of insulting entire groups of people because they are facing issues that are less scary than the one presented.
“oppression is not a competition”
thank you so much for this wording
Every time someone, usually a guy, complains about feminists not experiencing oppression, I can’t help but see what they are really trying to say.
"This is how men could be treating you, be grateful it’s only as bad as it is now."
And that’s actually an attribute of abusers, I believe I read somewhere. To compare you to someone being treated worse and tell you you should be grateful you have it so good. It convinces the victim they should be silent in the face of their abuse.
It’s literally an abuse tactic.
Every time someone says something like, “You […] have never experienced oppression, and pray you never do, because this is what it looks like.” What they are saying is, “shut up, we could treat you worse if we wanted to.”
^^^^^^^^^^^
Very well said ^^^^ Before saying shits about feminism and those who support it, do a research first. Find out what it means and what really it is. Feminists are different from “feminazis”, just like how my gentlemen friends say it.
This ride, I like it. Another! [video]

The Midnight Planétarium watch not only tells time, but follows the orbit of our solar system’s planets.
I’m not into watches, but I really like this! <3
