I keep getting messages in my inbox asking why atheists are so rude (or even worse, “just as rude as religious people”). Any attempt whatsoever to question those assumptions is regarded as proof of the theory.
Religion has been protected from criticism and questioning for so long, religious people assume it’s the natural state of affairs.
Statements that shouldn't be controversial but are because tumblr is fucked up:
“Pedophillia is bad”
“Skin color largely doesn’t determine how someone is as a person”
“Violence against people for political reasons is messed up”
“Terrorism, in any form, is never justified”
“Shoplifting is bad”
“Men and women deserve to be treated equally under the law”
“Abuse, no matter who the perpetrator is or who the victim is, is never justified”
“Racism is bad, no matter what race it’s against”
“You can be friends with someone of differing political views”

One of the world’s best-loved operas has been given a radically different ending in Italy, with the heroine killing her tormentor rather than being killed herself, in a stand against violence to women.
One of the world’s best-loved operas has been given a radically different ending in Italy, with the heroine killing her tormentor rather than being killed herself, in a stand against violence to women.
In Bizet’s original story, Don José is a naïve soldier who is lured away from his military duties and his childhood sweetheart by Carmen. But she then falls for the handsome bull-fighter Escamillo, driving Don Jose wild with jealousy. The last act of the opera is set outside the bullring in Seville, where Carmen is stabbed to death by Don José.
In what is believed to be a world first, a production of Bizet’s Carmen will see Carmen shoot her thwarted admirer Don José with a pistol that she grabs off him, rather than being stabbed to death by him.
The dramatic departure from operatic orthodoxy is an attempt to shine the spotlight on the modern-day abuse and mistreatment of women, an issue given added resonance by the outrage over the behaviour of Harvey Weinstein and Donald Trump.
The new version of Carmen will open at Florence’s opera house this weekend, with the first few nights already sold out.
“As far as we know it is the first time that the ending to Carmen has been changed,” the opera house’s Paolo Klun told The Telegraph.
The producers said they had changed the denouement of the story in part to protest at the large number of Italian women who are killed each year by jealous husbands, boyfriends and lovers.
Sociologists and campaigners say it is driven by men feeling threatened by the greater freedoms and enhanced economic independence that many Italian women now enjoy after decades of being seen as pliable possessions.
With horrific cases of domestic violence coming to light almost every month, the directors of the work said they were uncomfortable with the idea of audiences applauding the final scene, in which Carmen is stabbed to death and lies motionless on the stage.
“At a time when our society is having to confront the murder of women, how can we dare to applaud the killing of a woman?” said Cristiano Chiarot, the head of the opera house, the Teatro del Maggio Musicale Fiorentino. […]
Great news, I can’t wait until next year’s productions of Romeo & Juliet, where Juliet survives to start her own fashion line, Porgy & Bess, in which Bess learns both kickboxing and twerking, and Madame Butterfly, in which the entire cast are abducted by aliens at the end.
And revised version in 1984 where The Party is overthrown by the proles in a revolution and democracy is reinstated.
I just want to add I wholeheartedly support the new revised editions of Huckleberry Finn, in which every occurence of the word “nigger” is replaced by “playa”, Jane Eyre (in which Jane discovers she can fight off her oppressors, even without training, by using The Force), and The Quran, in which the prophet Muhammad is revealed to have been trans all along.
Oh, and the Hunger Games, in which Katniss simply eats every other character in the book. Because she’s hungry.
I mean, come on, people. It’s 2018: it’s time.
Never fix labels! Life is flux. The thing that is good this moment may be bad the next moment, and the thing that is bad in this situation may be good in another. Instead, be aware, find out what is the case, inquire.

How do you make good mac and cheese, do you just mix macaroni and cheese together or
Milk. Mac, milk and butter, then a whole bag of cheddar or two, other cheeses optional, meat optional.
Then put it in the pan, sprinkle more cheese and breadcrumbs in it, and bake it for twenty minutes
Don’t use water to cook the mac, just milk. Also, consider Alfredo sauce w the cheddar
Meat options: bacon, chicken, tuna, ground beef
Wait, so Mac 'n Cheese is just stewed macaronis but gratinated and maybe some more ingredients?!
if you’re white, you will never realize how scary it is being a POC. because seeing a cop and almost having a heart attack is normal right?
Sounds more of a YOU problem
No, racism is not a me problem. POC are getting arrested,killed, beaten up for not reason and there’s no denying it. Get your head out of your ass and accept that racism exists. I have every right to be afraid whenever I see a white male cop, because guess what? Some white male cops are racist shit heads.
Cept’ being a cop =/= being racist.
In fact, that wasn’t even the issue here. You never even mentioned racism. You are speaking for people like me that have never felt what you describe.
So get your head out of your ass and stop speaking for the rest of us for the way your dumbass feels.
You’re right. Being a cop does not necessarily mean that you’re racist, and nor do all POC feel the same. But I’m not speaking for all POC and not once did I say that cops are racist. I’m not a dumbass for fearing for my safety. I’ve seen what happens to some POC when encountering cops. I know what kind of shit goes on. I apologize if I’ve offended you, but I still stand with my statement. There’s a whole different type of fear that I get from facing cops, and that is because I’m a person of color.
Not offended but like I said, a YOU problem.
I believe it's called "paranoia".
Go ahead, defend blackwashing.
You can’t.
You can defend anything if your’re crazy enough!
I will defend this and the reverse, and I can EITHER do so on the grounds of “the fuck does it matter”, OR I can play devils advocate and explain why critical race theory argues ‘it only matters when it happens to black characters’, even though its a marxian collectivist hunk of horse shit of an argument. Pick one
No of this shit matters. The motivation is all I care about.
Now, motivation? There’s an actual point, right there, is what that is

Scientists Have Found A Way To Make You Less Attractive To Mosquitoes
Now Riffell says he has come up with a way to teach mosquitoes to hate your odor so they leave you alone.
“Swat them!” he exclaims. Just wave your hands and arms all around the buggers. You don’t even need to touch them! Riffell and his team report that mosquitoes hate air vibrations. They make the critters feel uncomfortable.
When the vibrations are combined with a person’s unique odor, the mosquitoes start to associate this uncomfortable feeling with odor. And the critter then starts to avoid the odor, Riffell and his colleagues reportThursday in Current Biology.
girl: it’s cold…
me wearing the scorpion jacket from Drive: yeah it is, that’s why I wore a jacket
Ikr?! So tired of hearing that bs every time ya go out to drink!
"Nooo, is it cold? 4 am in the morning? After thinning your blood with alcohol? And youre basically only wearing leggings and a dress with a thin jacket? How peculliar!"
Stupid gits need to learn how to dress practically instead for just the looks, now I'm gonna sleep...
this is undoubtedly one of the worst images I have ever before in my life seen
True, but the information is correct
Wow
You don’t fucking say
Someone being encouraged to be proud of their identity do better and are happier? Who would have thought of that? I wonder why we have so many angry, depressed, opiate washed young white guys? What could that possibly be caused by?
Honestly? Fuck you. Just fuck you.

I noticed you reblogged a post that says lesbians can't be men. What OP means is that transwomen can't be lesbian. From my understanding you support and believe true transgender people so just wondering if you really believe transwomen can't call themselves lesbians?
Anon… transwomen ARE women. And I checked out the OP and they are transmed/trans friendly (although they also state beside it in their bio that they tend to lean towards radical feminism)
Whats GC
Uh, transwomen will never be women, just a fake version of it since it’s really men with chopped off penises and surgically attached or hormonally grown boobs.
Anyway transwomen are women and anyone who believes otherwise is anti-science and fucking retarded.
Anti-science or anti-popular science and not as fucking retarded as the person above me is?
Know how chromosomes work, fucktard.
How about you learn the difference between sex and gender before attempting to use memes, cartoons and petty insults to argue your point.
Notice how it says “rather than biological ones” and “very loosely associated with natural distinctions of sex”? That’s because gender has nothing to do with chromosomes or genitalia, and so does not always correlate with them.
To reiterate what @astral–nymph said above, transwomen are women and those who say otherwise need to read up on the concept of gender.

Aww, someone sounds triggered.

What a shock. For the first time you’re actually right… nah, still wrong. Gender isn’t the same as sex, but they are related in that an XX chromosome defines a woman and therefore her gender is female, same goes for males with XY chromosomes.
Just because they have nothing to do with genitalia or chromosomes doesn’t mean they’re not related.
To reiterate what @astral–nymph said above, transwomen are women and those who say otherwise need to read up on the concept of gender.
And still incorrect. Transwomen are simply fake women made up of men who underwent hormonal treatments to grow boobs and either chopped off their penis or something, whatever it is to give them a vagina.
And yet, their chromosomes will still remain a man’s, therefore HE does not qualify to be engendered as a woman if his biochemistry is male and was born as one.
Just like the fucktard above my response, we got another one except this one likes to hide in the notes. Shame.
Um, honey, if you took biology and studied errors in meiosis, just like what I’m doing now, you’d know that so long as a chromosome has a Y, it’s a boy. Otherwise, no matter how many X’s there are, still a girl. Therefore, XXY means a boy, but with Klinefelter’s Syndrome.
Honey, I think that’s a question you should be asking yourself since you don’t even have the decency to even name the condition in which XXY chromosomes occur.
@pokuliusz
Yes chromosomes determine which sex parts someone is born with. But you’re still missing the point entirely.
Trans people suffer from Dysphoria. A mental illness that makes them feel repulsed or uncomfortable with their own body, and feel as if they should be the opposite gender. There have also been studies that show a trans man’s brain is similar to a cis males and that a trans woman’s brain is similar to a cis woman’s. I can’t find the link to the study right now, but once I get a moment I’d be more than happy to track it down for you.
@keyhollow Idk if you have anything on you to refute this dude, but anything would be appreciated.
Trans women will never be women on a genptypical scale, the DNA. However we are able to make them women on the phenotypical scale, the traits displayed.
So basically, that’s like saying a person with traits for blue and brown eyes, but phenotypically have brown eyes, is a fake blue eyed bitch that will never be brown eyed to you, all because their eyes were originally blue and they changed it to brown.
So, there you go
