vondell-swain:
it’s always weird when you’re following several different people who are frustrated about people on tumblr arguing but you’re not actually following any of the people doing any of the arguing so you just see a bunch of people who are like “hey everybody should really just chill out” and then you’re just like yes i suppose that is good general advice
This is my life. All the...
Re: Jennifer Lawrence body-snarking
In preparation for filming, Jen, Josh and Liam all did a fair amount of training to prep for their respective roles.
Liam dropped 15lbs. so as not to make us question where Gale Hawthorne got access to a gym.
Josh put on 15lbs of muscle to make the ‘wrestling champion’ aspect of Peeta a little more believable.
And Jen did a lot of running, climbing and archery practice. She was in...

Thus far these attacks have fallen into two categories: false and irrelevant. Much of this leaked information seems intended to play into stereotypes about young African-American males. Here’s what everyone should know:

Picked up my copy of Feminism for Real at the post office today.
Find it slightly ironic that I need to finish five exams for my post-secondary education so I have the time to read about ‘the academic industrial complex of feminism’.
Call me a slave to the system.
Dear Majority,
fuckyeahsexeducation:
You don’t have to be ashamed about being a majority. Whenever you’re told to check your privilege or that you have privilege, whenever we express that we’re angry or upset or fed up with the system, whenever we try to express how upset we feel we aren’t attacking you. We aren’t saying you’re a bad person. We aren’t saying that we hate everyone who is the majority. We aren’t...

When people link random American news articles and declare “OMG Canada has legalized prostitution!!” when they have no idea what has been going on the past few years, the context of the case, fundamental rights that are outlined in the Canadian constitution, or how the Canadian court system even works in the first place.

Step 1: Write about people who aren’t white.

You will very rarely see me curse, tumblypoos, but…but…I mean, what the fuck? How is this even possible? This reads like an Onion article.
To be clear, it is now ILLEGAL to teach de la Pena’s novel (which I’ve read and which is excellent) in schools, not because the book contains violence or drug...

Wouldn’t it be funny if Santorum becomes president and half the population just moves to Canada
Literally what I have planned , I can fake a damn good Canadian accent, and live off of Canada dry.
I’m moving to Canada regardless xD

What, you want all of us to die in order for you to recognize that this is not an isolated incident? That we need to have more of our Muslim women beaten and strangled and having their hijab taken off in order for people to realize that this is not honor killings but RACIST WHITE PEOPLE DOING IT?

blueexgiraffe:
I dropped a bottle of shampoo on my foot while I was taking a shower and I screamed every profanity I possibly could in my head. And since I do my best thinking while I’m taking a shower, I started thinking about swear words and why they’re considered swear words. Who deemed these words more offensive than, let’s say, the word towel? And why have I been told that I will suffer...

Do not tell me to respect my body by crossing my legs, keeping my knees together, my skirts long and my treatment of my body within your framework.
I respect my body by doing what I please with it.
I respect my body by loving it and all of the things it allows me to do.
I respect my body by being kind to the parts I sometimes don’t enjoy.

Is there a Tumblr out there that reliably posts teennick promos in a format Canadian fans can watch? Not just hosting the video from teenick’s site, but putting it on youtube or even a crappy iphone filmed version?
If you have a recommendation, or do this on your own blog on a regular basis, I would like to follow you and recommend you to my friends. Pretty pretty please?

I feel like Clark Kent walking into the newspaper office in his Superman tights.
“Oh, hey, y’all, this is my slut outfit. Yes, I’m about to get drunk. Yes, this body really is hiding under my baggy uniform. Yep, this is what my boobs look like unwrapped. Have a nice night!”

Anonymous submission
This is my journey of self realization, realizations i’ve had recently about past events. it is poorly organized, but I hope it gets the points across. When I was younger I was diagnosed with NVLD and this was fine. Lately, after extensive research, self-reflection, and talking to “professionals,” I’ve been finding that more and more labels are...

I think Munro is a lot smarter than people give him credit for.
Why do people assume that someone would only choose to act silly if they were too dumb to do otherwise? That’s stupid.

This is a huge community. And the brilliance of it is that it is this enormous, spider web map of fellowers and friends that would be impossible to completely encapsulate. Even if you wanted to venn diagram it into ‘gif makers’, ‘video...
