Senja, Norway

Senja is Norway’s second largest island, located far above the Arctic Circle. Here you are greeted by an awe-inspiring mix of sea, mountains, beaches, fishing villages and inland areas, all within a few hours drive. The Oceanside of the island is precipitous with sculptural rocks and colourful fishing villages in sheltered coves. The inland is filled with mountains, lakes and forests, and the mainland-facing coast sports unexpectedly green fields.

The scenery in Senja and Central Troms is full of contrasts, with the midnight sun and the northern lights, depending on the season. The distance from the coast to “raw” mountain peaks is short and is an ideal combination for those who participate in winter activities.

These Pics Are Composed Of As Many Pixels As There Are Animals Still Alive In These Species

A brilliant 2008 campaign by World Wildlife Fund (WWF) has been resurfacing thanks to a recent reddit post going viral. The campaign, called WWF Japan – Population by pixel, was created by the agency Hakuhodo C&D / Tokyo.

Y'all this is BAD

[lyinginbedmon]

Wow this is a really elegant way of describing why falling populations result in a narrow and incomplete picture of the actual species

books?? amazing. paperbacks?? soft, cozy, may fit in your pocket, cheap so you don’t feel bad for taking notes in them. hardcovers??? beautiful, pristine, ground you into the world they hold by making you grip them tighter, the stars of every bookshelf. ebooks?? convenient, cheap, always with you, a vast library that you can hold in your palm. new books?? crisp, the smell of wood, ideas waiting to imprint themselves upon the world. old books?? objects transcending history, sweet smelling, enriched by the hands that stroked their pages. books.

PHYSICAL STANDARDS SHOULD NOT BE LOWERED FOR FEMALE COMBAT TROOPS

Listen as a female who really wants to join the military one day in a combat role, I fucking hate that there are men and women out there saying that we should lower physical bars or make double standards for women who are training to fill these roles. THATS FUCKING BULLSHIT. Yeah men and women are definitely built differently and men are inherently stronger.. but guess what you dumb ass, politically correct feminazis, WOMEN SHOULD NOT BE IN COMBAT ROLES FOR THE SAKE OF HAVING WOMEN IN COMBAT ROLES. The military should be blind to your gender as they are all about ability. GUESS WHAT? WOMEN NEED TO WORK HARDER FOR THE SAME STANDARDS MEN HAVE TO ACHIEVE. That’s biology, get the fuck over it. IF YOU’RE A WOMAN WHO IS NOT WILLING TO WORK FOR AN ABOVE AVERAGE PHYSIQUE AND MENTAL ABILITY THEN YOU SHOULD NOT BE IN A FUCKING COMBAT ROLE. Insisting you should is just putting our brave men and women who are willing to, at risk, because your stupid ass can’t function properly on the battlefield. Sending piss poor weak men or women into war is how armies are crippled. I’ve worked for years to achieve strength that guys my age still haven’t reached. And guess what? I still have a long ways to go. I’m only 17 and I’m still working to reach maximum SEAL physical screening standards. I train, eat healthy and take vitamins to ensure a healthy body that can sustain rigorous shit in the future. And I still manage to look feminine. I’m still nowhere near where I need to be. I DON’T WANT SHIT HANDED TO ME. IF I WANT TO JOIN THE MILITARY I NEED TO EARN MY PLACE JUST LIKE ANY OTHER MAN DOES. I’m goddamn sick of women using their sex as a free pass or a guilt tool by saying “if you don’t let me do this you’re sexist”. NO, YOU’RE JUST AN IDIOT. If women can’t make the standards, and I know there are many that can and cannot, they shouldn’t be in special ops or specific combat positions. If that means that there aren’t a lot of women in combat roles, SO BE IT. Men and women must have the same physical standards. If you think otherwise you’re an insult to men, women, and America’s military.

@redbloodedamerica @raised-right-republican @libertarirynn @super-kara-danvers As people from different parts of the political spectrum that I follow, it would be cool to hear your opinion on this….

[redbloodedamerica]

The dumbest concepts by modern egalitarians is either to lower standards to include more people who would not otherwise qualify or by punishing those on the top for the failures of those on the bottom of a spectrum.

i was at a grocery store really late one night and some old guy kind of eyed me as i walked out of the store next to this other lady. She and I made eye contact and i knew she was scared too. we loaded up our groceries into our cars as fast as possible and I had way more bags than her so she got done faster than me. I panicked because i was sure she was going to leave so i just hurried faster, shaking a little, and then i noticed she sat in her car, watching me and making sure nobody came near. She waited not until all my groceries were loaded, or until my cart was put away, or until I got into my car. No, she didn’t drive away until I drove away. 

And that was the moment that I realized how much women need other women. That we can’t win this war without each other and we have to be looking out for each other, every second.

my last year in new york city, i got off the subway around 9 or 10p.m. i only lived about 5 blocks from the f train, but i hadn’t gotten more than two before a woman’s hand suddenly touched my arm. 

“that guy behind us is following you,” she said. “he was watching you leave the train car and followed you up.”

i hadn’t noticed him, or at least not noticed him following me. when we stopped outside a grocery store, he stopped half a block back and loitered. the woman linked her arm with mine and walked me several blocks out of her way to my front door and made sure i got inside safely.

another time, nocigar and i were walking home and at a stoplight a stranger grabbed my arm when i wouldn’t respond to him and tried to physically drag me over to him. she—who is, by the way, not a very physically imposing girl—ripped his hand off my arm and snarled, “don’t fucking touch her.”

protect your friends. protect strangers. there are good men in the world, but don’t wait for them to do something if you can do it yourself.

I was at a club once and my friend left with her boyfriend so I finished my drink and was heading out to the parking lot when three girls came up to me and basically surrounded me. 

“Those guys behind us were talking about following you. We can walk with you.” 

I have MMA training but have never in my life had been offered the protection and sanction of my own gender. This is so important.
