Fight Club pretty much did end on a “fuck all that shit” beat. It’s not the movie’s fault that some people didn’t understand/willfully misunderstood what it was saying and decided it was about “WHOA MANLY BROS BEING BROS SO COOL” instead of taking the movie as intended (ie. “Toxic Masculinity: The Movie”).

Hey incels, it is YOUR fault that it is involuntary. Quite being assholes or creeps to potential partners and other human beings. Get some fucking self-respect and respect others.

‘We do hate speech, and rollercoasters’

Ah yes, Schrodinger's Queer: Gay men aren't real men, but trans women are the manliest men.

Trans folks are under assault from literally all sides with this admin. Vote! Because our lives depend on it!

It’s nice to see the world finally waking up to the fact that the planet’s resources are not infinite and standing up against the corporations and governments which are choosing to ignore that fact.

assuming this is a genuine question, here’s a genuine answer.

The performances vacillate from wooden to overwrought, and rather consciously so.

When my daughter was 6 and started public school for the first time she came home laughing about a funny thing they did at her new school; the teacher would play a game where they all had to squeeze in to the bathroom and be as quiet as they could for as long as they could. She thought it was hilarious, her teacher…

I genuinely think this culture of grinding terror is as bad as the shootings themselves (like, in terms of the average school student; an actual shooting is much worse, but still only a tiny chance of it actually happening, whereas this is less traumatic than the real thing, but happens routinely to everyone). This is…

Your first point is chilling and I don’t know how it didn’t even occur to me.

What. It’s true. So get out there and start campaigning for change in your country, this is a huge problem and tragedy that literally can be fixed just be putting in some sensible laws. 

These drills are just a fact of life in schools now, the way recess or lunchtime or math class is. The two things I keep thinking about in regard to that:

I am a special education advocate and the mother of an autistic child. We have been having to deal with this in terms of what the school plans are to evacuate and protect disabled children. How do you keep an autistic child “quiet as a mouse” when he/she is scared which means agitation and anxiety peak, they will…

My boys are 7 and 4. My oldest came home from Kindergarten, after his very first shooter drill, very upset. While I was putting him to bed that night, through tears, he said “daddy I don’t want to die in school” and it was like being hit in the gut with a baseball bat. He’s been through several sets of these drills…

It really just shows that... you’re American more than anything else.

This is fucked up. I have two boys who are 8 and 11. My 8-year-old gets anxious about the drills, and I had to hold back tears when he told me his teacher was telling the class that she’s strong and “can fight” to protect them, and showed them an alternate exit. He then explained to me how he’d run from “the shooter…

Happens in NYC too. Which is weird because everyone who has lived there for like six months HATES people who walk in, then stop dead at the doors (even if they’re going to be riding for hours, to like Flushing!), jamming shit up for people along the way.

Can’t tell you the number of times I have JAMMED myself through a…

On the subway, people who 1) lean on poles so you can’t hold on (or, worse yet, just lean on your hand, which was already hanging on to the pole). 2) Walk through the train’s door and then just stop, making it difficult for the people behind to get on the train. 3) Don’t let people off the train before jamming through…
