I went to a burlesque show put on by the rennaisance festival last night and one of the acts was a girl doing standup about shakespeare’s King John 

also she began with, “well I’m not doing a striptease for you tonight, so you may be wondering, what IS she doing??……….my best”

[exeunt-pursued-by-a-bear]

also three guys did a number that was stripping but aLSO SWORDFIGHTING and that’s just…… my whole kink

it was very “oh nooooo you seem to have torn my shirt open as we’re fighting” and it was GREAT I’ve never seen a swordfight that looked that much like a threesome

also they had tearaway pants that they threw into the audience and I found a pair while we were cleaning house afterwards and had to go find the guys and be like “hey these are…yours”

2016 is really shaping up to be year 1 in all those dystopian novels.

Looks like it’s time to choose an antisocial white girl with minimal personality to save us, all while trying to choose between two equally terrible and boring boys.

What is the purpose? Because they’re women they have to struggle to fight in heels?

There’s an article on the Guardian tonight that’s like “who put those thoughts in Shakespeare’s head?” and the first picture in that article is Marlowe’s portrait

so like

which thoughts exactly are we talking about

because I can think of a few but I’m not sure that’s what they actually meant

When people talk about ‘special needs’ kids (or pat themselves on the back for saying ‘kids with special needs’), they’re erasing the fact that neurotypical kids have just as many educational and social needs as neurodivergent kids. You just don’t see their needs because the entire system is built to accommodate them. Their specific needs are so normalised that they’ve ceased to be regarded as needs at all.

i don’t agree with shaming any woman’s body but if you seriously think the level of “hate” directed towards thin women anywhere near matches the absolute disgust fat women are treated with you’re kidding yourself

April is “Autism Awareness Month”, so here are a few reminders for you to keep in mind:

Autism Speaks is a hate group.

The reasoning behind “Light It Up Blue” (that there are more autistic boys than girls) stems from a tendency in doctors to base their autism diagnoses on stereotypes and sometimes refuse to diagnose girls.

Most autistic people don’t want a “cure” for autism and don’t support Autism Speaks.

Autism Speaks has given abusive/ableist parents legitimacy by portraying autism as a terrifying, life-ruining affliction and sympathising with parents who have contemplated killing their children, or actually killed them.

The views of autistic people are more important in this topic than the views of our allistic family members and peers.

Autism is not a disease.

Very little (about 4%) of Autism Speaks’ proceeds go toward supporting autistic people. More of it goes toward catering.

Autism is not a tragedy.

What autistic people need is acceptance, not awareness.

Every time I listen to the Hamilton soundtrack, I sit back and say a prayer to the theater Gods to thank them for making sure this musical exists in a post Glee world.

Old People Restaurant Scam. You know the scam. Whine about perfectly good food to get some sort of comp.

In their old age, my parents befriended another older couple who would pull this stunt everywhere they went. After my mother told me a few stories about how their new friends had shown them how to get discounted or free meals, I felt like I was suddenly the responsible adult, concerned about the bad influence these people were on my parents.

While visiting my parents with my girlfriend, this other couple attended dinner with us. As I expected, the food was brought to the table and they immediately began dramatically complaining to one another about the quality/taste/temperature/etc. They were making a scene in order to attract the attention of the waitress. When our waitress returned to ask how we were doing, the miserable old bastard who played the lead role in their act took a deep breathe, struck a dramatic pose (with his hand raised to begin gesticulating for emphasis) and bega–I leaned forward and cut him off before he could finish the first word: “Everything is absolutely fantastic. It’s all great! Thank you very much!” She smiled, and began her obligatory “Great, well if you need any–” when he made a second attempt. “We come here all the time an–”. I didn’t acknowledge that he was speaking at all, repeated that all was just as we ordered and thank her again.

He was stunned and thrown off from his routine by my interruption. During this pause the waitress walked away (It seemed clear that she knew what they were trying to accomplish). He turned bright red. I turned to my girlfriend and, smiling and without lowering my voice, stated how pitiful it is that some people could be dishonest, deceitful and put at risk the livelihood of a cook, server or hostess for a pathetic discount or a free early-bird special. My passive-aggressive reverse-parenting broke my parents of the habit in short time.
