Mitt Romney: Students Should Get 'As Much...
Wow, Romney, how poignant! Your logic here really speaks volumes. If we applied it, then college dorms and lecture halls everywhere would be filled… with empty space and a handful of children from millionaires’ families. See yourself out, you rich privileged fool… and maybe while you’re at it, YOU can pursue some education. I know you can afford it. Bye.

lordoftheinternet: let’s take a minute to address the fact that we are currently involved in multiple military conflicts, there are violent drug cartels just south of our borders, the middle class is quickly disappearing due to rampant wealth inequality, and our political system is becoming increasingly susceptible to corporate greed and corruption, all in the midst of global economic...

floorclaudiuscaroline: um, when people ask you not to use slurs, that doesn’t mean that they want LAWS against using those slurs and they want to put you in jail for being ANTI-PC or whatthefuckever, it’s more like “hey, could you not be a dick and not use words with violent histories that hurt people and reinforce intense societal prejudice?” just sayin’

10 Things They Should Have Taught Us In Sex Ed
alifelongromance: girlgrowingsmall: retasukate: From Here : http://thoughtcatalog.com/2012/10-things-they-should-have-taught-us-in-sex-ed/ Sexual Education is a very good, necessary part of growing up. And it can come in many forms — and from many sources — but the one we almost all got universally was the uncomfortable, video-lecture-aided classes that we squirmed nervously through. We...

Me: I love the names for groups of animals. A murder of crows. An unkindness of ravens.
Otana: From murder to unkindness, I guess we know who the real badasses of the animal kingdom are. What's next, a mild inconvenience of sparrows?
Me: A vague annoyance of robins.

wretchedoftheearth: Rape is horrible, dehumanizing, and traumatic. Taxation is not. Taxation is something you consent to by being a part of society, there isn’t even a parallel to be drawn. Rape is one of the worst things that can happen in a person’s life. If taxation is the worst thing that you can imagine, well then fuck you, and you’re obviously not a survivor of sexual assault.

Someone legitimately complained that there was no sweet tea and then waited around for us to fix some while there was a bucket of unsweet tea available. Excuse me. Sweet tea is not a cosmic secret held only by entry-level fast food workers. What we do is take a pitcherload of (perfectly good!) unsweet tea out of the bucket, dump a half-pound bag of sugar into it, dissolve it, and pour the...

quixoticandabsurd: So tired of it. Because seriously, nobody batted an eye when I was little and walked out of the theater after seeing Toy Story proclaiming, “Woody is so cool! I want to be just like him!” Nobody cared that I was a little girl looking up to a male character. Not a single person would have been upset if I wanted a Sully toy, or if I admired Simba more than Nala. No parents...

lil-ith: I wanna find whoever wrote the songs “Ur So Gay” by Katy Perry and “Grow a Pear” by Ke$ha and punch them right in the got dang head. And also yell at the singers for putting that shit on their albums. The singers of the LGBTQ community’s anthems (or so they’d like to think, i.e. “We R Who We R”), the stars who are marketed to be rebellious, liberated young icons who tear down...

Low-Consent & Limited Power in Sex Ed
fuckyeahsexpositivity: geekingsexuality: I really want to think a lot deeper about how to make sex education meaningful, useful, practical for people in low-consent situations or with limited leveraging power to negotiate sexual situations with their partners.
