Please, please, PLEASE remember that Houston wasn’t the only city affected by this storm. There were so many small towns who were impacted and they aren’t getting the same amount of press. (I understand why so please don’t get on me about that, okay?) So please donate to organizations who are helping all Harvey…

Also, while there are a lot of good charities connecting people with things they need, also consider donating to organizations that provide legal/social work services. People will need legal assistance to obtain access to FEMA relief, insurance collection, and basic things like obtaining replacement IDs/birth…

I mean, that’s kind of true. However much of the racism we see in the world today is a product of white colonialism. Preference for lighter skinned people in Asia, Africa, Central and Southern America have direct ties to the influence of European influences as they colonized those places.

There’s nearly three times as many white people in the US as non-white people, you absolute doofus. White people are underrepresented in police brutality and even police interactions.

“after refusing to violate hospital policy”

No, they did this movie and it was called Wonder Woman and the island turned out great.

It’s from Witches of Eastwick and honestly I’ve never read it (love the movie) so I can’t speak to the context. But it illustrates your point regardless.

Have you seen the scripts and books men write for female characters? No woman thinks about her breasts and body that much throughout the day. Ever. If my breasts are bouncing around, I probably don’t have a good bra. Not because I’m arousing myself and loving the male protagonist’s attention.

I’d like to see that re-done but animated with cats in the lead roles.

It’s a poor choice of story to gender swap to begin with beyond the loss of historical context. I just think they could make it something redeemable in the present context by giving us that opportunity to question those perceptions of violence.

Thing is, Lord of the Flies was a response to a particular conceit of British pulp novels which depicted young boys/men being stranded as a fun adventure with little internal conflict. Golding took the subject of entitled British boarding school boys and the kind of savagery he saw in how they acted with each other…

Gee, I wonder why these douching women all just-so-happened to have chronic yeast infections? It’s a mystery!

I got a lecture from my cousin’s husband as to why I should just be this married man’s friend (his best man at his own wedding who was not there with the wife whom apparently “everyone says” is a psycho - which means everybody also knew he was married except me) but when I asked

I’d say he’s a pretty decent feminist by late 90's and early 2000's standards. It’s just that the conversation has moved on, and he really hasn’t.

This is why I was not cool with the pre-marriage Beyonce and Jay-Z relationship. Because although she told the press (and Oprah) that she doesn’t talk about relationships because she wanted to keep things private, I got a HUGE feeling that Jay-Z was really behind this choice, and was using it as a way to deny that he…

I think the bit about the young actresses could have been handled in a way that would have done as much good while doing less harm. I think the message would have been similar and the speculation somewhat lessened if she had merely made it clear that he regularly slept with people whose careers depended on him without…

Yikes. It’s not the cheating, it’s how he is BLAMING the women he cheats with for not being able to keep it in his pants. Like own your own choices, Whedon.

You forgot the part about Republicans also screwing women over personally. Have you ever heard of Newt Gingrich? Rudy Giuliani? Donald Trump himself?

Lol, that’s a classic right up there with “my wife doesn’t understand me.” Why do they all use the same lame, dusty playbook?

I was bored and on Instagram live the other day and started watching the feed of this radio show I’ve been listening to for years. A few mins later the guy from the show I crush on DMs me. We talked for a few days and I assumed he was divorced because I saw no sign of a wife in his pics. So I finally think to be on…
