The most glaring problem with so-called traditionalism is that it’s not historically accurate. People have been having gay sex since forever. People have been having interracial sex since forever. So what tradition are you referring to exactly? Nationalism? That shit’s only been around for like 150 years and even then two nightmare wars later and people are weary as fuck of those kind of attitudes.
The idea that people in the past were morally pure is a pervasive myth. Do you know that humans were making mead before they were growing crops? Do you know that there’s a reason prostitution is called “the oldest profession”? Have you seen the dirty graffiti they sprawled on the walls in Pompeii?
Traditionalists are suffering from the fallacy of presentism, the belief that things around them that they don’t like are new and the things they do like have been around for a long long time. Unfortunate for them, history disagrees.

THERE MIGHT BE SIX PAGES OF DIALOGUE IN THE SCRIPT. MAYBE TEN IF THEY WROTE OUT TOM HARDY’S GRUNTING. IT’S GOOD GRUNTING, DON’T GET ME WRONG BECAUSE MOST OF TOM HARDY’S WORK HERE IS DIALOGUE WITHOUT DIALOGUE. MAX SAWS AT THE BACK OF HIS MASKED HEAD WITH A NAIL FILE SO FAST AND WITH SUCH INSANE ANGER THAT IT BECOMES A LINE.
CHARLIZE THERON’S EYES ARE EASILY HALF THE DIALOGUE IN THE MOVIE AND MOST OF THE LINES THEY SAY ADD UP TO SOMETHING LIKE “I’M ONLY GOING TO USE ONE BULLET ON THIS SHITPILE OF A WORLD BECAUSE THAT’S ALL IT DESERVES AND ALSO ALL I NEED TO KILL BECAUSE I AM THE MOST LETHAL TWO-HEADED LIZARD PROWLING THIS CURSED EARTH.” SHE SHOULD GET AN OSCAR. I AM NOT KIDDING AT ALL.
EVERYTHING THIS FILM IS DESIGNED TO DO DEPENDS ON IT OVERPOWERING YOU WITH THE MOST BASIC ELEMENTS OF HUMAN EXISTENCE: FLIGHT, PAIN, FEAR AND MAYBE HOPE. HOPE’S A MAYBE.
“President Obama is keen to introduce tough new laws which will force the KKK and other extreme right-wing groups to disclose the identities of their members, Daily Mail Online can disclose.
The President discussed the possibility of the new measures when he telephoned Charleston mayor Joe Riley following last week’s massacre.
Riley, who is into his 40th year as mayor of the city where nine people were murdered by a self-proclaimed white supremacist down in the AME church massacre, said he and the President talked about how best to set up a national council to act as a watchdog to monitor and report on race hate.
Among the ideas being looked at is legislation forcing extreme right wings groups and violent organizations such as the Ku Klux Klan to provide identities of supporters and members”.
It’s about FUCKING TIME…let’s see if this will actually pop off! Can you imagine how many CEO heads to police commissioners to deli owners will be brought to light! The KKK comes in many forms don’t be fooled.
Does anyone else have that friend where it’s just like “Literally nothing you say can shock me anymore. We have said the worst possible things to each other in the form of sarcastic banter to the point that I have become numb to the moral reality of this world.”
it genuinely stresses me out that hat video of Ruby Rose binding with ACE bandages is getting so much traction. ACE bandages hurt so bad don’t fucking bind with them you can damage your body!!! It’s not cool and subversive to hurt your ribs!!!!!
What do we bind with then? .-. This is news to many people
real binders that were made for chest binding. ACE bandages are made so that they constrict, and this can fracture your ribs, or at least bruise and bend them. any trouble breathing experienced with ACE bandages also should not be part of binding, I breathe (and exercise) fine in my binder.
every option i am aware of is online, but you do have options.
underworks (http://www.underworks.com/ultimate-chest-binder-tank) is by far the most popular store. even though their binders were made for cis men who have gynecomastia, that basically means cis men with enlarged boobs, so it’s the same idea, and meant to be safe.
gc2b (http://www.gc2b.co/#!store/c205c) is a store that’s definitely gaining traction. you can find reviews on their website i believe but also on their tumblr, gc2b-apparel. everyone i’ve ever seen who had one felt much less pain with these binder because they’re designed by and for trans people, so they fit right.
were going around tumblr for awhile, but i’ve never used them, never have known anyone who used them, so i can’t vouch from a personal standpoint, but they do have a testimonials tag on their tumblr:
there’s other options - whether you ID as a dude or not, if you google search “ftm chest binders” you will find results, but these are the ones i’d vouch for most, the first being so widely used and the second two being by and for trans people.
hope this helps, if you want to know anything else about binding feel free to let me know!
Here’s your friendly reminder to not ever bind with ace bandages ever
father:
son when you grow up would you be the saviour of the broken the beaten and the damned will you defeat them your demons and all the non-believers the plans that they have made because one day i'll leave you a phantom to lead you in the summer to join the black parade

Why am I not seeing more people upset by what Donald Trump said about the Mexican people? Not only did he call everyone rapists and drug dealers but he called all Latinxs drug dealers and rapists.
This is someone who is running for president.
Univision has said they will no longer be associated with anything that has to do with Donald Trump organization. They will not be covering the Miss USA and Miss Universe.
Rosalyn Sanchez has decided to not be cohost of Miss Universe because of what Trump said about the Mexican people and Latinxs.
Cristian de la Fuente has also decided to not cohost.
J Balvin, a Colombian singer, has declined participation in Miss Universe, a chance to be known in the American community, because of what Trump said.
Where are my people who are upset by this?
did anyone realize that california laws went into effect today that allows trans* youth to pick which bathroom and sports team they feel comfortable with in school
i think that’s the bee’s knees
Don’t let this go unnoticed. The fact that gay marriage is legal is absolutely something to celebrate, but so is this
man I’m only 21 and i done seen it all the first Black president, gay marriage being legalized, I was there marching against police brutality, 9/11, the 2008 recession, smartphones, social media, the golden age of Beyonce
Actually this is so true
Our generation has seen it all. The market crashed. Politics started to spiral. Technology sped up until new innovations were churned out every day. We became more tightly linked through those innovations. We woke up to the problems in our own society. We saw the people around us take ‘safety’ to terrible extremes, and the people who were supposed to keep us safe take their power to worse ones. We saw the rise of musicians who weren’t afraid to call themselves feminists. We saw college students stand up and declare that they had the right to feel safe in their own dorm beds, and then drag around mattresses to prove it. We saw the world stand up in defense of some murdered children, but we also saw it turn a blind eye to others. We got a Black president–TWO TERMS of a Black president. And now we’ve seen the legalization of gay marriage in the US.
Not to sound too cliche, but imagine what we’ll see tomorrow.
shout out to all my followers that stick with me every time my interests change and you end up with a bunch of “what the hell is this shit” on your dashboards yall rock
man, teenaged girls aren’t allowed to have a genuine interest in anything without being ridiculed for it. if a girl likes ugg boots and starbucks she’s stupid and stereotypical, but if she likes combat boots and obscure coffee houses she’s a hipster wannabe and is trying too hard. if a girl listens to boy bands and other popular artists she’s a dumb follower, if she reads comics or plays video games she’s a poser/fake geek girl, if she likes sex she’s a slut but if she doesn’t like sex she’s a prude, if she wears makeup she’s fake but if she doesn’t wear makeup she’s a slob, if she has low self-esteem she needs to learn to love herself but if she has high self-esteem she’s overconfident and vain, if she’s interested in politics she’s a crazy social justice warrior but if she prefers to stay out of social matters she’s a dumb airhead. girls are literally mocked for every single thing they like or do, no matter what those things are, and i’m really really sick of it.
“Bisexual and transgender people ARE NOT allowed in LGBT spaces unless they’re in a HOMOSEXUAL RELATIONSHIP!”
how many bees do u have up ur asshole like I’m just curious
I don’t think I’ve seen anyone say this? Mostly people have said that you shouldn’t bring your partner if you’re in a het relationship which??? Isn’t at all too much to ask?
