I saw this and I literally just have to share it. Be warned that there are mentions of abuse in this, so if that topic makes you uncomfortable, you might not want to watch this. I'm only sharing this to get the word out about Andrew Tate so something can be done, even if it means nothing in the end.

Please reblog this, share the video of you can, I just want something to be done and hope something is done

Guys!!! It happened! Someone called me "woman" in a derogatory way. I absolutely said "Woman? Is that meant to insult me? I would return the slap if I took you for a man"

Thank you Queen Daenerys Targaryen, for the great comeback!!!

PSA: Beware The Quartering

P S A  | TO THOSE REBLOGGING THE VIDEO ABOUT STAN LEE

Hey Guys. I’m seeing a video getting reblogged around our fandom communities lately that reports on Stan Lee’s protections being removed by a Judge, and how he’s in a very dark place. I Totally Agree that this is a very important topic that we as a community need to be aware of and should raise alarm bells about. HOWEVER: A WORD OF WARNING Please, please consider your sources when you hear something like this. If you have learned of the issue by watching The Quartering’s video, then I urge you to find another source and share/reblog/promote that. The Quartering is a YouTube channel hosted by Jeremy Hambly, who is a seriously dangerous and problematic person. He has had multiple videos removed by YouTube from both this channel and his other channel (UnSleeved Media) for promoting harassment, toxic bullying, and hate speech. He is known for making videos that mock “SJW”s, “White Knights,” “Beta Males” and any women who attempt to engage in gaming circles such as Magic: The Gathering. His harassment (and endorsement of his followers’ harassment) of the prominent cosplayer Christine Sprankles actually became so terrible that she quite cosplaying altogether and removed herself from social media. And Wizards of the Coast has issues a Lifetime Ban from all tournaments because he is recognized as a toxic member of the community. 

Just look at his other videos, on this channel alone:

Wizards of the Coast bans Bullies

Kotaku: Details about cosplayer’s harassment and others who have been harassed by Hambly (Unsleeved Media)

This man unleashed thousands of his fans on a woman in Magic simply because she enjoyed cosplaying as the characters. His since deleted YouTube videos used all the same tactics as those in GamerGate to violate and attack Zoe Quinn and Leigh Alexander. He is NOT TRUSTWORTHY and completely undeserving of viral promotion. Please exercise extreme caution if you are going to share his message with others, or endorse his channels as legitimate information sources within the nerd/gaming community. It could do so much harm. 

As an alternative to sharing his video, I have located a few other sources that also share Stan’s troubling battle for autonomy. They are below:

Thank you for taking the time to read all this. My heart literally raced when I saw this horrible person on my dash today, and I hope that by staying aware, we save others from his abuse.

“morning, morning,” lucy greeted as she walked into her boss’ office — still in a respectful kind of way, but a bit less formal than her very first day at the new job. “i have a meeting at one thirty with a witness, and i almost had to fight the other deputy for it — it was so weird. i only managed to convince him because the witness speaks spanish, and he doesn’t. do you come across sh— things like that often?” she sighed before sitting on the opposite side of olympe’s desk. “ but anyway — how is your leg doing? would you want to get some coffee with me?” | @olympb​

"His mothers love meant he had to be housed with abusers for 17 years" is about as good of an excuse to me as "she has parasites that breathe through her skin so she has to be naked"

So that last post reminded me how when we were reading huck Finn in high school one of the guys made a period joke... About our teacher... To her face... In the middle of class...
