“without us you wouldn’t have any rights!“ without you we wouldn’t have to fight for them

Always this. Always.

“Remember that men gave women the right to vote!”

And remember that men should never have been at such a social and political advantage as to be able to literally give and take away rights from groups of people.

fuckin tell ‘em

If santa keeps track of “naughty” kids every “year”, and the year doesn’t start until January 1st, that leaves 6 days after Christmas and New Years left undocumented, so nothing you do can be held against you.

If you can talk the talk of support, then should damn well walk the walk and help this poor kid and her desperate mom. 

“As many know, Bella and I have been fighting for a long time for her rights.  My ex-husband has decided to file for sole custody, attempting to make it so I can’t see, or talk to my child ever again.  He does this all because he needs power and control over me even though I am not with him any more.  He uses Bella to hurt me.  Andy is an evangelical christian who uses his religion to force Bella to be someone she’s not.  Her happiness doesn’t matter to him, he only wants her to hurt me.  Andy was very abusive towards me and I left him to get away from it and keep Bella safe.  We had been fighting to try and take his rights away but he waited until I was beat down and couldn’t take any more, afford to fight him anymore, and at my absolute lowest, and he coersed me in to signing over temporary custody of Bella, while I was stuck in a room with him, having a nervous breakdown due to circumstances.  Knowing I had an attorney, Andy and his attorney chose to go around that and make sure I did not have the chance to get my attorney involved.  

Andy filed for sole custody shortly after moving Bella to Colorado.  He refuses to get Bella in to counseling with a qualified person, denying her identity despite her being insistent on who she is.  He’s cut off her hair, is making her talk to Christian counselors who tell her the same thing her dad does, that it’s shameful to be who she is, and that she has to do what god says. Bella is insistent with me that she will never be anyone other than Bella.  

My attorney has told me that the only way I will be able to get Bella back, and keep her safe, is if we get a Guardian Ad Litem to monitor her there, and show that her dad is not making any effort to support her identity.  This costs more money than I will ever be able to save.  Cost for Guardian Ad Litem can be up to $20,000.  If I don’t raise this money, I will lose my child forever to a man who purely hates me and wants her only to make me miserable.  I love my daughter more than anything and it’s killing me to be away from her.  Please help bring Bella home to me! #hernameisBella” 

The fundraiser has been up for 16 months and they only have $6,000 of their $10,000 goal, and the mother still hasn’t gotten Bella back. 

her fundraiser has been moved from where it is in this post to a new page, found here https://www.gofundme.com/27ayh75q

My cousin, Karen Perez, had her life taken away from her at only 15. We want to better the community of South Houston, Texas. We need the building of where everything that happened to be removed. The property owners are asking for a ridiculous amount of money. Please help. It’ll only take a few moments. Share & sign it, if you’d like. We would love to have statewide support or 50,000 signatures. Her news was INTERNATIONAL…because of how horrific everything was. Her death was recored on a phone…the news articles are in the link. She was a victim of domestic abuse at only 15 years old. Please do not ever forget her story.

DEAR YOUNG BRITISH PEOPLE

The EU referendum is on the 23rd JUNE and here’s some scary stats the BBC decided to throw at me this morning: 

“just over a third of 18- to 24-year-olds intend to or are certain to vote, compared with well over two thirds of the over-75s” mix that with “those under the age of 35 are roughly twice as likely to vote to stay in as those over the age of 55″

DO YOU SEE WHERE THIS IS HEADING? No? Then let me spell it out for you, Hamilton style:

We are gonna get ourselves kicked out of the EU if you don’t get your arse down to the polling station and VOTE for us to stay on the 23rd June.

So, here I am, doing my best to convince you to VOTE STAY.

WHY SHOULD YOU CARE?

I get it. You’re apathetic. Politics is boring/corrupt/pointless, all the parties are the same, we’re screwed anyway etc etc. I FEEL YOU. Mate, do I feel you. But THIS referendum has NOTHING to do with political parties or alliances, even the muppets running this country are split. THIS is about the SINGLE QUESTION of if you want us to stay, or want us to leave.

And if you don’t vote for us to stay, then the older generation will most likely vote for us to leave. 

SO WHY ARE WE HAVING A REFERENDUM?

The EU has been going pretty great considering it was all one giant experiment, and it’s been swimming along mostly A-OK for years, but then… the Tories got desperate. Last election, they promised a referendum to get some of the right-wing *cough*UKIP*cough* votes, so now, here we are, having a vote about the EU even though, WE HAVE NO FUCKING PROBLEM WITH THE EU.

BUT WHAT HAS THE EU EVER DONE FOR US?

Being a member of the EU means you can hop across borders as you please: you can study abroad, live abroad, and go on holiday abroad within the EU with much less hassle than if we were outside it. 

But they are also responsible for a bunch of welfare laws that we take for granted: 

👌👀👌👀👌👀👌👀👌👀 good shit go౦ԁ sHit👌 thats ✔ some good👌👌shit right👌👌there👌👌👌 right✔there ✔✔if i do ƽaү so my self 💯 i say so 💯 thats what im talking about right there right there (chorus: ʳᶦᵍʰᵗ ᵗʰᵉʳᵉ) mMMMMᎷМ💯 👌👌 👌НO0ОଠOOOOOОଠଠOoooᵒᵒᵒᵒᵒᵒᵒᵒᵒ👌 👌👌 👌 💯 👌 👀 👀 👀 👌👌Good shit

But seriously here’s some other things that you might not have realised were thanks to the EU:

At the minute it’s a great symbiotic system where we have plenty of freedom but also, plenty of support. 

SO WHY DO PEOPLE WANNA BREXIT?

Because it sounds like a breakfast cereal and I’m guessing they’re hungry af. Admittedly, we have to pay a fee to be in the EU (but relatively, this is minimal) and it can also mean more “red tape”. But as far as I can tell these are all just very polite ways to say that the EU just have too much gosh darn ~power~ over us. URGH. First of all, this is not the British Empire, we’re allowed to have allies, and it’s a good thing that we have other nations keeping us in check. (And with the Tories destroying the country, you might find yourself hoping that the EU did have more power to keep us in check). Secondly, we’re already a special snowflake in the EU, and they grant us PLENTY of leeway, so it’s not as if they’ve got us by the tighty whiteys.

The Leave campaign are scapegoating refugees as to why we need to leave the EU which would be hilarious if I didn’t live in the middle of nowhere surrounded by white middle-class racist UKIP voters that are goddamn licking it up. (Cornwall. Don’t even.) They are using the recent “migrant crisis” to emphasise that as soon as someone becomes an EU member they can live anywhere in the EU, as in, all the EU countries that are nicer than we are and actually let people fleeing from their wartorn country stay, can therefore decide to move to the UK. But, yo, leaving the EU won’t stop immigration. And even more hilariously, our borders are actually more likely to be weaker if we leave the EU than stronger.

Putting aside the fact that apparently millions of people in our nation don’t give a fuck about refugees that are in part OUR GODDAMN FAULT and certainly if you’re a human being OUR GODDAMN CONCERN, the Leave campaign are apparently forgetting about OUR IMMIGRANTS. 

As in:

2.2m British nationals that, if we leave the EU, are suddenly dumped into muddy water. Oh yeah, Leave campaign, I really see you caring about them. 

I’ve honestly never seen such hypocrisy in my life. 

OH, AND IT’S ECONOMIC SUICIDE

The Leave campaign cannot produce a single independent study to show that economically we’d be better off leaving the EU.

jk it’s because we’re NOT.

Our economy is now so tied to the EU that it would be a fucking MESS if we left. It’s 57% of our trade. It’s 1 in 10 of our jobs. It could take us a decade just to untangle ourselves. And, lord knows, we’d never win Eurovision again.

TO SUMMARISE

On JUNE 23RD please vote to REMAIN IN THE EU. If you do nothing, it’s likely we’re gonna be outvoted by hypocritical racist UKIP-wankers and get our country in an even worse financial state.

The reason I am here BEGGING my 12 followers and 200 spambots to VOTE TO STAY is because the last time there was a referendum, I was a naive little undergrad, and I thought “this option is so obviously better, everyone’s going to vote for it” and HAHAHAHAHA DID THAT NOT HAPPEN. You may think you don’t need to vote, but YOU DO. 

Governments are only as smart as the people informing them.

We need to give our idiotic government as close to an actual representation of our country’s opinion. That means we need to get our turnout percentage up to AT LEAST two-thirds like the over 75s so that the result of the referendum is an actual reflection of opinion.

That doesn’t happen if you don’t vote. 

So please, check you are registered to vote RIGHT NOW. And on June 23rd, VOTE TO STAY.

PLEASE READ THIS. PLEASE REBLOG THIS. PLEASE VOTE.

This is the BIGGEST MOST IMPORTANT thing that this country has voted for since before we were born and will likely shape us as a country for many years to come. I’m proudly going to be voting to stay but whatever you want for us PLEASE PLEASE VOTE!!!!!

please, my dear 39 followers and 400 Spambots: Reblog and vote vote vote!

Talking about the economy in broad numbers is nice, but let me put some perspective on it from someone who is in international trade and regularly sends and receives good to and from Britain. (and other non-EU countries)

Every delivery across EU borders costs us the transport. That’s about 30€ for oh… high-end notebook in a price range of about 1500€ 

We do not pay extra taxes, we do not pay customs, we do not have to put in the additional work time of 4 hours to fill out customs forms. If something goes wrong and the notebook is not the correct one, it got damaged on the way or…. that’s all no problem. Send it back and we’ll fix it. Costs us about two days delivery time. 

Now, take in comparison, Switzerland: 30€ + Customs + extra transport fees= 180€ (per delivery). Customer accidentally had ordered the wrong notebook. 

We had to apply for re- introduction across EU borders, then had to wait until the notebook was at our place (a week, customs was thorough) then we could send out the new notebook. It got turned back at the border because one number was potentially suspicious. The guy at our specialised transport company phoned with them for an hour to clear that up. Permission granted, one day delay. 

Because we did not send the same goods again (this time we sent the correct notebook) we had to pay customs and tax AGAIN. Our customer can apply to get the first customs fee restored, after a lengthy bureaucratic process.  

So, this 1500€ notebook all in all cost us and the customer: 1920€ 6 weeks all in all of delivery time (including the original BTO time) and me personally two days of work. 

I send a delivery to France with 10 notebooks in two weeks and one hour of work. 

Compare that and tell me, how it’s supposed to work?

Seriously to my UK followers, please vote for us to stay. I’m terrified that we will be leaving the EU. We’re fucked if we leave. Please vote. And non UK followers, please signal boost this. It’s so damn important,

The most important thing, on top of all of this, is that you have to register to vote right fucking now. The deadline should have passed on Tuesday 7th June at midnight; it didn’t because so many people rushed to do it in the last couple of hours and crashed the site. 

I know that was you. You’ve been given one last chance. Don’t make the same mistake, because you cannot vote if you aren’t registered by today. It literally takes 5 mins. REGISTER HERE RIGHT THE FUCK NOW.

i sure do love girls one hell of a heck of a fuck of a lot
