Definitely worth a read, it’s the last couple of paragraphs that really bring the theory home. Not sure I completely buy into it, but it sounds interesting!

I really want to learn to draw well! These look like great guides.

The last face in the middle looks like George Takei, no?

Here’s What No One Tells You About Having Both Depression And Anxiety

It’s getting more tightly wound the more mess piles up, but only staring at it and thinking, I’ll clean tomorrow.

It’s sleeping too much or not at all.

It’s alternating between feeling paralyzed in the present and scared shitless about the future.

It’s wondering if the things that are making your heart feel heavy are things your anxious mind just made up.

It’s needing to do everything, but wanting to do nothing at all.

This is one of the best things I have read in a long time. Please, please reblog!

The world’s girls are healthier than ever. They live longer and more of them are going to school than at any time in history.

But most of them face discrimination simply because they are girls. The discrimination happens at every point in their lives.

In some cases, it starts even before they’re born, when parents decide to abort a pregnancy if the fetus is female.

A good way to get a sense of the progress — and the remaining gaps — in worldwide gender equality is by looking at the data. Numbers can tell a compelling story. The story we’re going to tell focuses on girls ages 10 to 19, an age range used by the World Bank and other groups to track populations. Worldwide, about 600 million girls fall into this age range. Nearly half of them live in just seven countries. Those countries are the focus of our story.

You might expect that there would be an even number of boys and girls in this age group in these seven countries.

But you’d be wrong.

This is worth a read, very interesting (and concerning!) information.

Target doing it right. Representation matters.

Powerful Message: So today Usher & Nas & Bibi Bourelly released a new protest song called “Chains (Don’t Look Away)” on TIDAL and an interactive experience has been added making sure you don’t look away. - “Whilst racial injustice keeps killing, society keeps looking away”

[jedilady2]

She's the heroine of the Star Wars universe, so why was she erased from this children's shirt?

Sith happens.

Are you KIDDING me? As a woman and a Star Wars fan I find Target’s lack of taste disturbing...
