I`m in the middle of watching The Ascent of Woman on Netflix. Highly recommended. History is filled with examples of civilizations where women’s rights were wiped out from civilizations depending on leadership, wealth inequality and politics. But there were always civilizations in one form or another where women have…

Dear Lord. A couple years ago there was a article on io9 asking if the rights that women have today could just be a temporary blip in human history. Sometimes that seems to be more and more likely. I’m so glad I won’t be having children to grow up in this world.

Oh but when women are violent towards MEN IT’S NOT OKAY GUYS! IT’S THE END OF CIVILIZATION! EVEN IF A WOMAN DEFENDS HERSELF! DON’T BRUISE THE PRECIOUS MEN EVER. VIOLENCE IS ONLY OK WHEN MEN DO IT.

uh i just made a castoff comment about a movie, in a comment thread discussing the movie

I liked Divergent the book. Insurgent was very meh and the last one I spent most of the first half thinking wtf am I reading and then skimming to end.

Because basically nothing happened. The first one had potential, and then the story just went nowhere.

yeah, the romantic chemistry in the first one, between a 16 year old girl and a man who appeared to be about 35, was great

I am so over the “splitting the last book/movie into 2 parts” bullshit.

I read them all and I can’t even remember what exactly happened in the second and third books??

Allegiant (is that even a word?) was the worst end to a YA triology ever and that’s saying a lot. Those books started with a decent premise and went straight down the toilet

Without spoiling anything... maybe the readers HATED the ending of the series and therefore sales of the books could never translate into enthusiasm for the movies, PARTICULARLY the last one.

The tweet was sent by iPhone, indicating someone else (Ivanka???) sent it on behalf of Trump, who typically tweets from his unsecured Android phone.

Maybe in his mind the “upper class” was the type to have family that once ruled empires? Everyone else is in the middle and lower class.

So are motorcycles, waverunners, fast boats, race cars, various sports, off reading, and about a dozen other fun things. It doesn’t mean we should live bubble wrapped lives and stop using them. Anything can be dangerous if inexperienced people use them. Atvs are very dangerous for young people to use but are very…

They are incompetent, but power-crazed, people who will pick all the battles. Add to that the hubris that they think they can win ALL the battles. I’m hoping they don’t win this one because DeVos will be a disaster for public education, but there are so many fronts on which to push back as we’ve been doing. It is…

“Why are you marching? What rights don’t women have?”

Fuck that. If this the argument you insist on, then your fucking Viagra and Cialis and shit should not be covered because I DON’T WANT TO PAY FOR YOU TO HAVE SEX. Tit-for-fucking-tat.

And just to remind everybody, these are the same people that laugh at snowflake libtards and their constant need for safe spaces. These are the wimpiest fucking crybabies I’ve ever seen, it’s embarrassing.

I wish people would stop doing this.

I honestly can’t tell the difference between a real Trump tweet and a joke Trump tweet. Sad!
