Just an experiment. Reblog if you actually give a fuck about male victims of domestic violence and rape.
Of fucking course
What sick bastard doesn’t
“You’d be surprised”, said Xaldien, who just lost four followers and received a lovely “men can’t be raped” anon shortly after reblogging this the first time.
Yowch, disgusting.
If I don’t reblog this, assume I’m dead.
Always reblog this
If you Dont reblog this if u see it then i cant call u my friend
IF ANYONE TELLS ME THAT MEN CAN’T BE VICTIMS OF DOMESTIC VIOLENCE AND RAPE, I AM SICKENED BY THEIR MERE PRESENCE ON MY BLOG.
If you disagree with me, unfollow my blog, block me and never look at my blog again.
If you want to debate about this or send anon’s about this, I will reply but your actions have consequences.
Out of 19000+ followers I have, only one of you actually reblogged about this issue, yet a lot of you have reblogged and liked a picture by playboy about catcalling and that how men should never do it.
Additionally, I have received abuse in my ask box (which I will be answering when I can) and threats. In particular death threats and rape threats.
I can see the real problem here already. Male domestic violence and rape is just invisible in our society because we don’t want to talk about this because it just damages the status quo of this fucking website.
I’m a male victim of child sexual abuse. We matter. Please, reblog this.
I’m a male victim of child sexual abuse as well as sexual abuse in a relationship. I’m not invisible. Don’t throw me to the side to keep some image. Reblog this whenever you see it please.
Holy Satan! WE CARE ABOUT YOU DOWN HERE, IT DOESN’T MATTER WHAT, YOU ARE IMPORTANT! I reblog this because if people protects us for being a female “because rape is bad, and you shouldn’t do it” “because abusing is bad” but they don’t protect you for being a male, then rape and domestic violence is ok. I think rape and abuse is bad, if you are a girl, if you are a boy, it doesn’t matter, rape is rape, and abuse is abuse, there is no gender definition for that, and there shall never be. Now go click the goddamn reblog bottom, because they are ALL important and they ALL matter
Hi yes as a male victim of rape, i care a lot. We’re real.
Why in all the Nine Rings of Heaven would anyone believe that men cannot be raped?
Yesh I give a fuck! not only female but male too it doesn’t matter if the victim is male or female the crime is rape and violence THEY FORCE THEM TO SOMETHING THEY DON’T AND HURT THEM PHYSICALLY/MENTALLY THAT’S THE FIGGIN POINT!!!!!
ik I just reblogged this, but HOLY FUCK ITS IMPORTANT!!
The Terror: Infamy - 2x10 - “Did something happen tonight? In the war?”
the dawning realization of this gif set is so chilling
The Terror is an amazing show. The second season revolves around Japanese-American characters imprisoned in internment camps during WW2. The cast and crew is almost entirely Japanese-American, and the credits of the final episode include a long tribute to their family members, including many who were interned. Some members of the cast themselves lived through the internment camps, including George Takei. On the surface The Terror is a supernatural horror show, but in the end most of the fear comes from the very real terrors of racism in America.
Now that internment camps are back, shows like these are more important than ever.

So excited to start college!! :)

Memorizing and learning the Korean alphabet is one of my most frequently asked questions. Today let’s review strategies on how to master hangeul (한글)!
First, it’s useful to set up the alphabet in a table like this where you have consonants (자음) on the left side going from top to bottom, and vowels (모음) at the top of the page from left to right.
Most Korean alphabet sheets are set up this way and I’ll be using the first 3 consonants (ㄱ/g, ㄴ/n, ㄷ/d) and first 3 vowels (아/a, 야/ya, 어/eo) in the following examples to demonstrate why as well as why this makes learning the alphabet easy.
Let’s take the first consonant ㄱ(g) and first vowel 아(ah). Right away we notice that the intersection of those letters is 가 (ga). We know this because:
ㄱ(g) + 아(ah) = 가.
This can be done with the following consonant as well where we see that:
ㄴ(n) + 아(ah) = 나.
This can be repeated for all 14 consonants as you move vertically down the line.
So, if you know that ㄱ(g) + 아(ah) = 가(ga), do you know what sounds make 갸? Yes! Because just as we got:
ㄱ(g) + 아(ah) = 가(ga), the same rule applies where
ㄱ(g) + 야(ya) = 갸(gya), and ㄴ(n) + 야(ya) = 냐(nya).
“So how should I practice?”
Well, now that we have the basics down, you can learn the alphabet quickly by practicing writing out each consonant and vowel combination together 10 times saying them aloud as you write.
First write down each consonant:
ㄱ(g): ㄱ ㄱ ㄱ ㄱ ㄱ
ㄴ(n): ㄴ ㄴ ㄴ ㄴ ㄴ
ㄷ(d): ㄷ ㄷ ㄷ ㄷ ㄷ
etc.
Then write down each vowel:
아(a): 아 아 아 아 아
야(ya): 야 야 야 야 야
어 (eo): 어 어 어 어 어
etc.
Then put them together:
가(ga): 가 가 가 가 가
나(na): 나 나 나 나 나
다(da): 다 다 다 다 다
etc.
Within no time you’ll have mastered the alphabet and will be able to read anything you see!
Hope this helps and happy studying!

Just working on some writing a little bit aimlessly, thinking a lot about time, about edges, about art and form. Do you ever feel like a few things on your mind might be connected but can’t yet see how?

I hope everyone has had a wonderful weekend. I haven’t studied as much as I would of liked to, so I’m planning to study extra hard next week.😌

Korean Resources Masterpost
Since I am often asked about how to learn Korean, what are the best ways to learn Korean, what apps are great for learning Korean, where should I visit in Korea?… I thought it would be smart to compile an extensive list of resources to go about your Korean adventure! \(^o^)/
Learning Korean
So, you want to learn Korean? That’s amazing! But how do you go about doing it?
As with any language, I feel as though it’s extremely important to gain an understanding as to how the language is used. Before delving into multiple books and grammar lessons, it’s important to soak up the way a new language sounds and how it’s used in everyday context. Even a baby is exposed to their native language for years before they dabble in the basics.
So with this in mind, try watching some Korean TV shows, or listen to Kpop. (If these aren’t already your reason for wanting to learn such a beautiful language!) However, if you’re a Kpop fan, I’d recommend watching a few dramas, just to recognise how words are spoken in normal conversation, and vice versa! So if you’re a Korean drama enthusiast, try listening to Kpop if you haven’t already.
You’d be amazed at how quickly you will instinctively pick up basic words or phrases, before you even understand the alphabet!
I want to emphasise how although this isn’t an essential step, (because I know a lot of you will be itching to get started) I do believe that having a small understanding of the spoken language first, greatly reduces any confusion when diving into grammar, pronunciation and the alphabet.
So, you’ve binged watched every Korean Drama, and learnt all the lyrics to your favourite K-pop songs? What do you do now?..
The alphabet!
Sounds easy, and quite honestly it is! You just need practice. The best places to learn the alphabet and how to use it:
Korean From Zero
Seemile.com Hangul Playlist
How to Study Korean
Learn Korean (Memorisation Game)
Learn Hangul
There are loads of resources out there for learning Hangul! But these are the few that I think are simple, easy to understand and provide a quick result! I highly recommend Seemile.com; their playlist takes you straight through the basics in a classroom style lesson. It’s very easy and straightforward to understand. Alongside Seemile.com, Korean From Zero is also extremely useful for learning Hangul.
I highly recommend learning the pronunciation correctly, rather than relying on romanisation. Romanisation is not always 100% accurate and can leave the words feeling too artificial when spoken.. When relying on romanisation alone, you’ll also find that it can often restrict you when learning new vocabulary, or even visiting South Korea itself! It’s best to first grasp a solid understanding of the alphabet and how to read it before you decide to jump straight into grammar!
Right, now you’ve mastered the alphabet. What now?..
Grammar
I’m sure grammar can seem quite intimidating at first, but you’d be surprised at how simple it is!
Learning a new language is never a quick, or an easy ordeal. However, taking it step by step in bitesized pieces, is often the best approach, and sometimes the most effective!
I would always recommend learning with free sources before investing money into learning a language, because more often than not, free sources are easily accessible, motivational, and incredibly rewarding. Once you grasp an understanding for how the language feels, and whether it’s right for you, I would only then suggest buying sources like books, and audio CDs etc.
However, this is purely up to personal preference, as I know some people may prefer to buy the tools necessary for learning as the motivation to learn it!
And of course, there’s no use learning grammar if you can’t understand words! So it’s very important to keep improving and updating your vocabulary as often as possible.
So here is a list of FREE resources that cover grammar and vocabulary:
Resources with an [X] beside them are my personal favourites and highly recommended!

Or even try following your favourite Korean celebrities on Twitter or Instagram. It’s amazing how much you can learn from social media! Especially if you try following news stations such as KBS or MBC, it will give you some fresh Korean on your dash regularly.
With any language, the best way to learn it is to surround yourself with it as much as possible!
Listen to Radio stations, such as KBS Cool Fm, or KBS 1 for talk and news, or even MBC Radio. There are many stations to listen to! Even Podcasts are a great resource, listen to native Korean speakers discuss book reviews, or talk about film. It’s a great way to immerse yourself within the language.
List of resources that are NOT FREE for grammar and vocabulary:

Other resources to improve your Korean:
To further emphasise me previous point, try to surround yourself with the language as much as possible! It’s also an incredibly motivating experience to talk to native speakers (although it might not be within everybody’s comfort zone) but it really has the benefit of throwing you into the deep end; providing you with the confidence to learn, adapt and grow extremely quickly as you put your knowledge to use! Plus, it’s very rewarding to meet new people, make new friends and learn things you can’t learn from a website! HelloTalk is the best app for this, from my experience.

Travel in Korea
South Korea is an amazing place to visit, but with any country; it’s important to do the research before you pack your bags to make sure you’ll get the most out of your trip! Learn a little about the country and basic survival phrases, and try to delve into the culture with an open mind! You’ll find so much information on the internet, but here are some brief things worth mentioning. Seoulistic, and Eat your Kimchi are very interesting insights into Korean life and offer a lot of information! So take notes and enjoy your travels!
