May you wake up to cancelled classes.

I like wearing oversized sweaters. Not because they’re extremely comfy and cuddly, but because whenever the sleeves are really big, I get to flop them around and smack people.
I love sleeve smacking people

I’m anti-feminist for many of the same reasons I’m an atheist.
So you don’t believe women exist?
Its okay. I’m an atheist because I don’t believe in something I can’t see or touch. I suppose women are much like that for you.
Somebody get him some ice.
okay, but a dude has to do it, cause he’s gonna freak the fuck out if he sees some floating ice coming over to him.

70,000 people have reblogged this but no one is trying to defend themselves
THAT MOMENT WHEN YOURE READING FANFICTION AND A CHARACTER SAYS SOMETHING REALLY CUTE OR ANGSTY BUT IT SOUNDS LIKE SOMETHING THEY WOULD ACTUALLY SAY AND YOU JUST KINDA LEAVE THE COMPUTER AND WALK AIMLESSLY AROUND THE HOUSE TO CALM YOUR RAGING FEELS
i never realize how much i swear until i’m in a situation where i can’t
true story: i tried avoiding saying ‘bitch’ in front of a kid so my mouth said ‘cunt’ instead.
Nailed it.
Just a reminder of the cruel irony that everyone remembered Steve Rogers except for the two people he loved the most.
the sex positivity movement should never forget asexuals, abstinent & celibate people
being comfortable with not being interested in sex is just as important as being comfortable with having sex
hey what if someone invented a machine that allowed women to transfer their pregnancies to men and then the government passed a law that if a woman didn’t want to have a baby the biological father was required to carry it how fast do you think birth control would stop being an issue

things that will make me immediately lose respect for you:
- yelling at/hitting animals
- treating your significant others badly
- using slurs
- purposely misgendering someone
- embarrassing people for fun
- Being a racist asshole
- Being a homophobe
- Infringing on other peoples’ rights
also, yelling at/being incredibly rude to someone in the service industry (waitress/waiter/bartender/fast-food worker/etc)
BEING PRESSURED INTO SAYING YES IS NOT CONSENT AND YOUR FEELINGS OF BEING SEXUALLY ASSAULTED ARE STILL VALID AND IT IS NOT YOUR FAULT
I REPEAT
BEING PRESSURED INTO SAYING YES IS NOT CONSENT
AND YOUR FEELINGS OF BEING SEXUALLY ASSAULTED ARE STILL VALID
AND IT IS NOT YOUR FAULT
When [an abusive man] tells me that he became abusive because he lost control of himself, I ask him why he didn’t do something even worse. For example, I might say, “You called her a fucking whore, you grabbed the phone out of her hand and whipped it across the room, and then you gave her a shove and she fell down. There she was at your feet where it would have been easy to kick her in the head. Now, you have just finished telling me that you were ‘totally out of control’ at that time, but you didn’t kick her. What stopped you?” And the client can always give me a reason. Here are some common explanations:
“I wouldn’t want to cause her a serious injury.”
“I realized one of the children was watching.”
“I was afraid someone would call the police.”
“I could kill her if I did that.”
“The fight was getting loud, and I was afraid the neighbors would hear.”
And the most frequent response of all:
“Jesus, I wouldn’t do that. I would never do something like that to her.”
The response that I almost never heard — I remember hearing it twice in the fifteen years — was: “I don’t know.”
These ready answers strip the cover off of my clients’ loss of control excuse. While a man is on an abusive rampage, verbally or physically, his mind maintains awareness of a number of questions: “Am I doing something that other people could find out about, so it could make me look bad? Am I doing anything that could get me in legal trouble? Could I get hurt myself? Am I doing anything that I myself consider too cruel, gross, or violent?”
A critical insight seeped into me from working with my first few dozen clients: An abuser almost never does anything that he himself considers morally unacceptable. He may hide what he does because he thinks other people would disagree with it, but he feels justified inside. I can’t remember a client ever having said to me: “There’s no way I can defend what I did. It was just totally wrong.” He invariably has a reason that he considers good enough. In short, an abuser’s core problem is that he has a distorted sense of right and wrong.
I sometimes ask my clients the following question: “How many of you have ever felt angry enough at youer mother to get the urge to call her a bitch?” Typically half or more of the group members raise their hands. Then I ask, “How many of you have ever acted on that urge?” All the hands fly down, and the men cast appalled gazes on me, as if I had just asked whether they sell drugs outside elementary schools. So then I ask, “Well, why haven’t you?” The same answer shoots out from the men each time I do this exercise: “But you can’t treat your mother like that, no matter how angry you are! You just don’t do that!”
The unspoken remainder of this statement, which we can fill in for my clients, is: “But you can treat your wife or girlfriend like that, as long as you have a good enough reason. That’s different.” In other words, the abuser’s problem lies above all in his belief that controlling or abusing his female partner is justifiable….

According to Vulcan mourning traditions, a death is mourned only if the life was wasted. Leonard Nimoy lived an incredible life and leaves behind a wonderful legacy - one of compassion, creativity, and kindness. Let’s honor his life and celebrate his legacy by making an effort to uplift and encourage our fellow travelers on this little blue planet. #LLAP
Also! A Vulcan mourning tradition that survived from the ancient times before the teachings of Surak is the distinction between mourning and grieving. A life wasted was mourned, the death of someone held close was grieved. The traditional statement given, in recognition of a problem for which there is no foreseeable logical solution, is “I grieve with thee.” LLAP
@ people who use they/them pronouns: I am so sorry you have to deal with know-it-alls who think they & them are only used for multiple people and I’m also sorry you have to deal with people who try to get you to use he/him or she/her pronouns you keep doing you ok
REALLY THOUGH. (I am so sorry that people are terrible, sweeties, and if I ever fuck up because I fuck up at everything please tell me because I want you to be comfortable and I am sorry that I fuck up at everything.)
The best part about shipping Shakespeare characters is that, somewhere out there, there is a published scholar who agrees with you.
What about across plays
Can I ship Oberon with Hamlet
Shylock with Othello
Titania with Violet
Rosalind with Benedick
Romeo and Hamlet ft. Juliet and Ophelia facepalming in the distance
I just realized that Romeo/Hamlet’s ship name is Homeo and I’m behind that 100%

Thor volunteering while on earth to help coach a little girls sports league. I really don’t even care what. He cheers them on to victory and buys them all hotdogs and afterwards they sit in the grass and braid his hair and fill it and his beard with flowers. They rename the team The Valkyries.
Every time they start losing badly, the game gets mysteriously rained out. Nobody has the guts to say anything.
I believe in this
Germans: Oh you’re learning German? Hey, you’re not so bad at it. Don’t razzle dazzle it up though.
French: About time you learned French.
Russians, Koreans, Spanish-speakers: WOW YOU’RE LEARNING MY LANGUAGE? LET ME HELP YOU I CAN GET SOME MATERIALS FOR YOU AND RECOMMEND SOME SITES AND VIDEOS, DID YOU JUST SAY “HELLO” IN MY LANGUAGE? YOU ARE SO GREAT WOW I AM SO IMPRESSED
Dutch: but why would you do this

sending your kid to catholic school is the easiest way to guarantee your kid will not be catholic
Fun story: a friend of mine discovered she was bi-sexual and into bdsm at a catholic school after a nun put her over her knee and spanked her. Christians just can’t seem to get anything right.
