West Side Story (1961) dir. Jerome Robbins, Robert Wise
Michael Fassbender on Shame’s NC-17 rating.
The most beautiful man in the world speaking truth about the stupidity of the movie industry.
626 was designed to be a monster. But now, there’s nothing to destroy. You see, I never gave him a greater purpose. What must it be like — to have nothing? Not even memories to visit in the middle of the night.
“Those poor boys”
“She deserves to be punished too.”
“I’m not saying I support rape, but-”
“Sorry to say - she deserved it.”
“She put herself in harm’s way”
“But if she was fingered, then that’s not rape.”
“She ruined their lives.”
“Well she didn’t exactly say ‘no’..”
“Yea, but did you see what she was wearing?”
“Boys will be boys!”
“She should know better than to drink at a party…”
Cannot not reblog.
“She should have tried to enjoy–”
“She’s just saying something now for atten-“
boy am i glad this has so many notes
“But he’s a dude. That’s not ra-”
“He should’ve enjoyed it.”
“She must’ve lead him on.”
“But she orgasmed. That means she liked it - “
“She’s slept with so many people! She’s a slut-“
“Get over it, at least you’re still a virgin”
“Women can’t rape because…”
“Be grateful it wasn’t a man!”
“I’m sorry she hurt you but don’t call what happened to you rape, it’s an insult to the REAL victims…”
“You weren’t raped, you’re just lesbophobic.”
“She shouldn’t have posted provocative photos!”
“She shouldn’t have been dressed like that … she was asking for it!”
“It’s the woman’s responsibility to not put herself in dangerous situations, she should have been more aware.”
reblogging because it’s gotten even better since last time
I love this post!
“Well he paid for dinner, she kind of owed him.”
“She’s his wife, it’s her job to please him.”
“Oral isn’t rape.”
“Well he wasn’t armed, she could have walked away.”
“Guys can’t be raped, they love sex!”
“She didn’t fight back; it wasn’t rape.”
A good post
the day I do not reblog this is the day I’m buried six feet under

I like that people included male rape victims as well! This is a good post
Not only male rape victims, but the idea that women can also rape.
It’s weird to think that nighttime is the natural state of the universe and daytime is only caused by a nearby, radiating ball of flame.
Don’t fuck me up like this
My man Jesus
What story is that?
Matthew 18:9
“And if your eye causes you to sin, gouge it out and throw it away.”
“Jesus, how can I avoid sin when all these hussies keep revealing the fact that they have bodies?!”
“Hmmm, tough call bro. Have you tried gouging out your eyes so you don’t have to see all those bodies anymore?”
“wut”
“What?”
“Shouldn’t you tell them to… stop dressing like that or something?”
“Don’t see why. It’s not their fault that the fact that they have bodies makes you a fucking sinful horndog. Gotta fix that problem yourself, buddy. Go on, blind yourself.”
“Uh….”
“Or learn to keep it in your g’damn pants no matter what they’re wearing.”
He goes on for like several examples too.
“How can I avoid like, an accidental slip of the hand when…they’re dressin like that?”
“Cut it off.”
“wut”
“Cut it off. Your hand. If it’s a problem, stop having a hand.”
“wut”
“What”
Circus Tree: Six individual sycamore trees were shaped, bent, and braided to form this.
Actually pretty easy. Trees don’t reject tissue from other trees in the same family. You bend the tree to another tree when it is a sapling, scrape off the bark on both trees where they touch, add some damp sphagnum moss around them to keep everything slightly moist and bind them together. Then wait a few years- The trees will have grown together. You can use a similar technique to graft a lemon branch or a lime branch or even both- onto an orange tree and have one tree that has all three fruits. Frankentrees.
As a biologist I can clearly state that plants are fucking weird and you should probably be slightly afraid of them.
On that note! At the university (UBC) located in town, the Agriculture students were told by their teacher that a tree flipped upside down would die. So they took an excavator and flipped the tree upside down. And it’s still growing. But the branches are now the roots, and the roots are now these super gnarly looking branches. Be afraid.
But Vi, how can you mention that and NOT post a picture? D:

I am both amazed and horrified of nature as we all should be
I love how trees are like “fuck it, I’ll deal” at literally everything. Forest fire? Cool, my seeds’ll finally grow. Upside down? Branches, suck, roots, leave. What’s this new branch? Eh, welcome to the tree buddy.
I need to be more like tree
I continue to fear and respect out arboreal overlords.
what kind of professor did these students have that they needed to prove him wrong so badly that they literally dug up a tree, flipped it and put it back in the ground?
Sounds like y’all’ve never heard about the Tree of 40 Fruits. Well, it’s exactly as it sounds. Sam Van Aken, an artist based in New York, decided to try his hand at grafting (e.g. the process by which you attach the branches of a different tree to a host tree).
As artists are inclined to do he decided to push some limits and over the course of a few years he grafted over 40 different fruit onto the host “ including almond, apricot, cherry, nectarine, peach and plum varieties.”
It has a fruiting period lasting from July to October and this is what it looks like when blossoming.
Shit’s tight yo.
Also we have a group called the Guerrilla Grafters. A group who started in San Fransisco with the goal of grafting fruiting branches onto non-fruiting trees of the same type.
Most cities have fruit trees that simply don’t produce fruit because having all these would be a mess and inadvertently providing unregulated food to people comes with a lot of legal risks I suppose. These grafters seem to think otherwise and have taken it upon themselves to try and bring fruit trees back to urban areas.
HOLY SHIT
THE LAST ONE
Solarpunk as fuck!!
Reblogging for “I continue to fear and respect out arboreal overlords.”
but is this not the plot of much ado tho
So the University of Virginia is overrun with a bunch of Nazi and White Supremacists rn.
America hang your head. This is disgraceful. Your WW2 heroes are spinning in their graves right now. Appalling.
Robert E. Lee himself refused to wear his confederate uniform after the confederacy’s defeat in the American civil war. At his funeral he was not buried in it and no one in attendance was permitted to wear theirs either. He also declared that his confederate battle flag (what we now call “the confederate flag”) never be raised again and that it was a flag of treason.
So there’s your “southern heritage.”
Not Just Robert E Lee, which you can read here.
but Also the President of the South, Jefferson Davis felt the same way.
Basically, “Get the fuck over it.” We lost, we’re a part of this country, this flag signifies an old identity. Cut that shit out and move on.
“We all have a deep desire to know what exists out there, a desire so basic, so beautiful, so much fun, that it unites all mankind. The most exciting discoveries will provide answers to questions we do not yet know how to ask, and they concern objects we have not yet imagined.” – astrophysicist John N.

I really don’t believe Molly was capable of killing Bellatrix. Bella is a Dark Lord trained Death Eater who frequently is using dark spells. Molly has been a house-wife for most of her life. Surely in reality she wouldn’t know those spells, let alone have ever used them before. Bella knows more and has been practising her skills (even through Azkaban), and yet Molly wins? I cant believe it.
(Taiga’s note: never, ever estimate the power of a mother protecting her children.)
I can’t wait until some of you idiots have children. See what you’re capable of when your child is in danger. She wasn’t just a house wife, she was a mother. Y’all moms should slap the ignorance out of you.
Molly was part of the Order in the first war. She lost her brothers to Death Eaters. She just lost her son, who was named in honour of one of those brothers. Her daughter, her only daughter, is threatened. You can damn well believe that her conviction was strong and she meant every spell she cast in defense of her family. Of course she knows those spells. Of course she wins.
^^^^ This.
Very early on in writing the series, I remember a female journalist saying to me that Mrs Weasley, ‘Well, you know, she’s just a mother.’ And I was absolutely incensed by that comment. Now, I consider myself to be a feminist, and I’d always wanted to show that just because a woman has made a choice, a free choice to say, ‘Well, I’m going to raise my family and that’s going to be my choice. I may go back to a career, I may have a career part time, but that’s my choice.’ Doesn’t mean that that’s all she can do. And as we proved there in that little battle, Molly Weasley comes out and proves herself the equal of any warrior on that battlefield.
- J. K. Rowling (x)
Molly was a warrior before she was a mother. Male soldiers become fathers all the time, I really don’t see how this is a problem.
I haven’t read the book in ages, but wasn’t it demonstrated fairly often that Molly was a powerful witch? Did this person miss that because of the fact she used her powers in a domestic fashion?
“Did this person miss that because of the fact she used her powers in a domestic fashion?“
In a word: yes.
She literally transfixed her entire house so that it ran on magic. Do you know how powerful that is? We always assume that Arthur was the one who originally created the structure of The Burrow but have you seen Arthur’s knowledge of inventions? He was terrible. He would have no idea how to keep that house from collapsing. I’m 99.9% sure that that was all Molly. Having a constant spell going so that every single chore is done? Molly. Using that magic to create food for nine children, a husband, and various guests? Molly. Who figured out all of the finances, what they could spend money on, etc.? Molly. (That doesn’t have to do with spells but it does have to do with her being powerful.)
There’s a reason Peter never transformed and tried to escape. He knew that he wouldn’t get three feet before Molly BAMF Weasley sent his head flying over the wall with the garden gnomes.
Now with that being said, somebody write that story immediately.
This is a pretty weird argument to make for a series where the entire course of events is kicked off by a mother whose love for her child sets up the destruction of the Dark Lord himself.
My mother is five foot nothing and every one of my exes was scared of her. With good reason. Don’t fuck with a momma bear.
Like I don’t know what else you people need
White men to not be the political power majority.
Where was this when all the white boys on my fb were offended that I said I was more likely to die at the hands of a white boy than anyone else
