If you're having trouble keeping up with what's going on in Palestine because of US news coverage of university protests, here are some articles you can read and a video you can watch:
While CNN & all the other mainstream media try to paint the university protests as "pro terrorism" (which they're not, they're literally anti-war protests.) Palestinians are being slaughtered by the minute.
Please don't stop speaking about Palestine.
My favorite part of having posted this is how u guys are now in the tags telling me all these different cultures you associate this hat with. This hat is a global phenomenon
Working class Irish people 🤝 little polish boys 🤝 African dads 🤝 male Jewish professors 🤝communists in the parliament of the Weimar Republic
Wearing this hat apparently idk
the idea that restrooms, locker rooms, etc need to be single-sex spaces in order for women to be safe is patriarchy's way of signalling to men & boys that society doesn't expect them to behave themselves around women. it is directly antifeminist. it would be antifeminist even if trans people did not exist. a feminist society would demand that women should be safe in all spaces even when there are men there.
btw this is maybe the single most key distinguishing feature of the terfy strains of radical feminism, the seed all the rest of it springs out of: they have absolutely no faith in the ability of feminism to actually destroy patriarchy. they do not think feminism can truly build a better world. they cannot really even imagine that possibility. they think patriarchy is an inevitable natural consequence of unchangeable biological facts, and therefore the goal of feminism can only be to mitigate the worst effects of patriarchy, not to get rid of it.
they can imagine a society where women get some designated safe spaces without men around. they cannot imagine a society where the presence of men is not inherently a danger to women.

its important to do this every time a museum or school thinks this is a good idea
Did you intentionally make him Cajun before that screencap or was that baked into the prompt already. I ask only because the eyes as green as the bayou got me good
he's naturally australian so i gave him an upgrade

it's not natural for candy to be $3.49. candy is supposed to be one dollar

TODAY: our comrades at sydney university have started an encampment! this student movement is global folks, liberation is near!
Wow.
You should really listen to the WHOLE thing because this woman does not mince words
I'd like to emphasize the cruelty. Being a worker right now is absolutely shit. Food costs, low wages, shitty work environments, childcare costs. A medical abortion can costs anywhere to $550-$700 in states that border ban states. You have to travel. You need a hotel after driving 8 hrs to a clinic. You need a baby sitter. You need a job that LETS you take time off. You need food! If you're barely making ends meet, this is nearly impossible. If you got the time and money, donate or share an abortion fund in a banned state. These funds and orgs not only pay part of the abortion, many of them are scaling up to support people with travel costs. You can find them or your local fund here: abortionfunds.org
And Democrats stood back and just let this happen because they don't care either. They weighed the option of fixing it immediately versus using it as a campaign slogan, and decided that the lives of women were more valuable when used for a power grab. It's sickening.
Being a young adult is so strange. You enter a coffee shop. The 20 year old girl waiting behind you cried all night because she just came to a new city for university and she feels so alone. That 27 year old guy over there works a job he is overqualified for, he lives with his parents and wants to move out but doesn't know what to do about it. That one 24 year old dude already has a car, a house, and a job waiting for him once he graduates thanks to his dad's connections. The 26 year old barista couldn't complete his higher education because he has to work and take care of his family. The 28 year old girl sitting next to you has no friends to go out with so she is texting her mother. That couple (both 25 years old) are married and the girl is pregnant. The 29 year old writing something on her laptop has realized that she chose the wrong major so she is trying to start all over. We are not alone in this, but we are actually so alone. Do you feel me
I know this is satire, but
playing minish cap and I had a vision
It pisses me the fuck off that yoga is actually ancient and really good for you. Part of me still feels like it was invented to extract wealth from white socal moms.
I hate New age shit so much I actually get kinda mad when cleaning my room and drinking water actually improves my mood.
Like what do you mean moderate exercise and disciplined self respect actually improve my life. Cut the bullshit and invent cigarettes that are good for me already.
