You guys rlly don't realise how much knowledge is still not committed to the internet. I find books all the time with stuff that is impossible to find through a search engine- most people do not put their magnum opus research online for free and the more niche a skill is the less likely you are to have people who will leak those books online. (Nevermind all the books written prior to the internet that have knowledge that is not considered "relevant" enough to digitise).

Whenever people say that we r growing up with all the world's knowledge at our fingertips...it's not necessarily true. Is the amount of knowledge online potentially infinite? Yes. Is it all knowledge? No. You will be surprised at the niche things you can discover at a local archive or library.

about five months ago, Jina Mahsa Amini was killed in police custody and for the past five months, people have protested in the streets, they have chanted "Women, Life, Freedom".

I never thought a woman's death would start a revolution, why? because like everybody I live in a misogynistic society. but then it started and it's still going. I don't know if you know this or not, but the government is poisoning schoolgirls and I haven't attended school for the past week. Yesterday, there was a huge protest across the country against the chemical attacks of schools. People chanted "Women, Life, Freedom" and it just makes me tear up; a slogan that has first been chanted in Kurdistan is now being chanted by everyone across the country.

It's a beautiful slogan and it's all we want; Today is the international women's day and I wanted to remind you guys about our revolution, our feminist revolution. so yeah, we're still fighting and we're not going to stop.

"Revolution is a woman's home; because she has no other place to stay." with the name of Hadis Najafi(a protester who was killed during the uprising), walls of Iran, 2022

the usa shouldn’t be the political and economic focal point of the entire fucking planet, actually

Don't get me wrong, I don't give two shits about the English Royal Family, but this PR crisis they're in right now is just wild. Every time you think they're done digging themselves deeper, they haul another bucket of shit up from the bottom of the well they're in.

Is Kate dead? Of course not. Is the PR team still, for some inexplicable reason, acting like they're covering up her murder? Yes! And I for one find that fucking hilarious.

This isn't the first time. Last year, the IDF would leave behind explosives disguised to look like toys (they did this in Lebanon as well)

I have no hope for radical feminism because of women like you.

Maybe you shouldn't base your entire hopes for women's liberation on what you see on tumblr hon.

“Only women die one by one, still believing that if only they had been perfect—perfect wife, mother, or whore—they would not have come to hate life so much, to find it so strangely difficult and empty, themselves so hopelessly confused and despairing. Women die, mourning not the loss of their own lives, but their own inexcusable inability to achieve perfection as men define it for them. Women desperately try to embody a male-defined feminine ideal because survival depends on it. The ideal, by definition, turns a woman into a function, deprives her of any individuality that is self-serving or self-created, not useful to the male in his scheme of things. This monstrous female quest for male-defined perfection, so intrinsically hostile to freedom and integrity, leads inevitably to bitterness, paralysis, or death, but like the mirage in the desert, the life-giving oasis that is not there, survival is promised in this conformity and nowhere else.”
