“Don’t talk like one of them. You’re not! Even if you’d like to be. To them, you’re just a freak, like me! They need you right now, but when they don’t, they’ll cast you out, like a leper! You see, their morals, their code, it’s a bad joke. Dropped at the first sign of trouble. They’re only as good as the world allows them to be. I’ll show you. When the chips are down, these… these civilized people, they’ll eat each other. See, I’m not a monster. I’m just ahead of the curve.“

— The Dark Knight (2008) dir. Christopher Nolan

Hey guys - I have yet to post this vlog! Please check it out, it’s all about my year. I realise I’ve been extremely inactive, but all will be fully explained in May! I have been working on this magazine, my dissertation, and various other assignments, as well as applying for grad jobs!

We Met On Tinder...

So, Tinder is a thing I've not been on in nearly a year now, and from what I hear it's changed quite a bit since I was last on it. There's this thing called 'super like' now, and it appears you have one 'super like' a day and you can tell someone you think they're really something special by 'super liking' them. I would've 'super liked' Aaron if that feature was about way back when, but it wasn't, so I just liked him. For those of you who don't know what it is, have been in relationships spanning the time in which Tinder came along and took over everyone's lives; it's a dating app. A really, really, superficial, shallow, dating app. You swipe either right - for those you fancy - or left - for those you don't (if I remember correctly) but you can click on their profile and read their bio, if you're more interested than just their initial looks. You set a radius, the furthest distance you're willing to travel, I suppose, and an age range, and then you get the people who fit your criteria - if you fit theirs.

Jennifer Lawrence puts the gender pay gap on blast in killer op-ed

Lawrence may be a special case, and she knows it, but the ideas behind her op-ed are spot on. The issue isn’t just about money: It’s about an industry — a working world, even — that devalues and silences assertive women.

As though I couldn’t love her more.

Jennifer Lawrence isn’t the best authority on feminism so I don’t normally spread quotes from her but this is quite an important message.

An important note though, “men” and “lucky people with dicks” are not interchangeable terms. Male privilege does not apply to trans AMAB people. So if you mean men then say men.

Rose McGowan was fired by her agent for criticizing Hollywood sexism

On June 17, McGowan tweeted a casting note for Adam Sandler’s next film. It told actresses to wear a “form-fitting tank that shows off cleavage.” A week later she tweeted she’d been fired. Worse though, is that few have spoken up in her defense. Only The Princess Diaries’ Heather Matarazzo defended her publicly.

Blessings on Rose for outing Sandler

This is exactly why so many women (especially women of color) in Hollywood are very afraid to speak out against sexism and racism–because they’d get fired (and even blacklisted). Look what happened.

We support you, Rose.
