Interventions are old. Broadcasting a man being driven to the grave by his demons is ripe for E! to exploit.

Rey convinces Luke to train her by standing outside Luke’s mudhut day and night for weeks, holding over her head a boombox playing the music from the cantina on Tatooine.
THIS! She had to go through so many steps to modify that picture and glue her smug little giggling face next to it. So many chances to come to her senses like “woah, wait, wtf am I doing?!”. Forget playboy- how are you going to explain that kind of cruelty to the people you love? Your body may be beautiful, Bunny, but…
I love people like you when I am at the gym. You have the best habits and hopeful attitude. Keeps me inspired and focused when I am there. Fuck this playboy bitch, let's not let her have this much power over us!
Don’t give shitty people that kind of control over you. Shitty people will be shitty either way; the only thing you can control is how you react to it. I’m not saying the pain will end, but literally telling shitty people exactly what you think is freeing.
My dearest, I am older than you and wore a bikini last month for the first time in literally over 40 years. I was in another country! That’s how intimidated I was to be seen with MY VERY OWN BODY in public. After my first outing, I felt so free! It’s my skin, my body parts, my muscles - all holding ME together. What’s…
You're a(n apparently sexy?...) raptor. You have no reason to be self conscious among humans. If someone makes fun of you, eat them. What are they gonna do, call the cops? When they show up, eat them too. Problem solved.
Me too. But now I’m torn: Do I just vow to never again disrobe in a theoretically private-ish place like a gym locker room? Or do I gather together a horde of overweight middle-aged women like myself to stage a week-long protest where we follow this lady around, buck naked, everywhere she goes?
I started watching a video that was going around where this conservative lady is talking about the events of last week... couldn’t make it more than a few minutes since I almost chucked my phone against the wall when one of the first things she said was that Diamond Reynolds is “an idiot” and “how are you just going…
I one hundred percent do not understand how what he (or she, or anyone else that gets killed or injured by the cops) was doing is relevant, unless the answer to the question is 'pointing a gun at the officer's head'. Was he screaming and lunging at the cop while holding a knife to a baby's throat? Well then I can see…
I can’t say I understand what that is like as I’m not a POC, but what you’re saying reminds me of the ways women are taught to deflect and de-escalate with angry entitled men.I can imagine it is especially scary when they don’t just have the social (and oftentimes physical) power that men have over women but also the…
Brother Malcolm was onto them so he had to go. His message still rings very true. Will watch this when my co-workers exit the building.
Now playing
I was listening to Malcolm X speeches the other day and what he is saying could be applied word for word to what is going on today.
It was in my best interest and in my daughter’s best interest to stay calm.
One reason we get so annoyed about this is because we can follow all these dumb rules and still get raped. I’ve got friends who’ve been raped drunk. I’ve got friends who’ve been raped sober. I’ve got friends who’ve been raped by strangers. I’ve got friends who’ve been raped by friends. People want to set up all these…
I can see how it would bother him as someone who takes his craft seriously. After all, saying that the original Sulu was gay (or even that he should be interpreted as gay) because Takei is gay is only a few steps away from saying that gay actors should only play gay characters. Obviously that’s not being implied…
Bernie is educating young voters, encouraging them to stay involved. He is telling them: “you have to work if you really want change, because none of the rights that we have now were handed to anybody.” Naturally, people who are comfortable with “more of the same” aren’t gonna be too happy that he’s still out there…
Real progress in politics does not come by little steps, it comes in great leaps. Freeing the slaves, the social safety net, the Pure Food and Drugs act, desegregation, etc... were all things pushed by the ideologically rigid in great leaps and not small steps. If Hillary really believed in universal single payer, she…
I have to disagree. He’s not going to win, and he knows that, but continuing to stay in the race until the democratic party has adopted a more progressive platform (that which the people DID ask for) is certainly the right move.
