Then you have to let me know who you are so I can message you with my new adress, greyface.

So, yeah.

I created a second Tumblr, for a multitude of reasons. I’ve had people I know of in real life read this blog, which is uncomfortable, my site tracker tells me someone else is occasionally accessing my account, and I feel I’ve gained most of my followers from my embarrassing phase in 2009 where I would only post pictures of CFWGs standing in fields.

I don’t know yet if I’ll stop posting here entirely, or if I’ll use both accounts for a while. I do know that my personal posts will most likely only be on my new blog. So if you like my rambling, ranting and excessive GPOYS - or just want to keep in contact with me - you should head over there. Message me for the url - I’m trying to keep this a bit low-key, at least for now.

“My local radio station is having this contest, “The Breast Summer Ever” in which the company will fully fund the breast augmentation of the winning woman, on a voting system. I just wanted to bring to your attention that anyone can vote, and one of our own, a transwoman named Avery (#4) has made the top ten, causing a but of controversy in our very conservative city. I think that it would send a very strong message, not to mention make her dream come true if she was to win. But there is no way that she can do it without the help of the community. All you have to do is press a button and your vote is cast. As I’m sure you are all aware, transphobia rates decrease with the ability to pass, and just imagine what this would do to her self esteem. you can vote here”

ELLE: What were your first impressions of each other?

RJ: I do remember, like, that semi–high school moment where I’m like, “Oh my God, she’s so cool. She shouldn’t be this cool for how talented she is and how pretty she is.”

AP: I’ve met a lot of my closest friends after I turned 30, and Rashida’s certainly one of them. It’s so nice to be able to find a like-minded person who you really admire. And who’s your homie.

RJ: I’m going to cry.

cynthiavane:

What happens now? I’ll tell you what happens now. Your scumbag brother-in-law is finished. Done. You understand? I will own him when this is over. Every cent he earns, every cent his wife earns is mine. Any place he goes, anywhere he turns, I’m gonna be there grabbing my share. He’ll be scrubbing toilets in Tijuana for pennies and I’ll be standing over him to get my cut. He’ll see me when he wakes up in the morning and when he crawls to sleep in whatever rat hole is left for him after I shred his house down. I will haunt his crusty ass forever until the day he sticks a gun up his mouth and pulls the trigger just to get me out of his head. That’s what happens next.

Rape Culture is...

Sun, 10 Jul 2011 05:22:55 +0200

diggingforroots:

…constantly citing that 1 in 6 women are raped without ever specifying

1 in 3 Native/First Nations women are raped, and 80+% of the time by non-Native (almost exclusively white) men - and the cases are almost never even investigated.

The rates of rape of women crossing the border into the U.S. are so high that anecdotal evidence is that it is EXPECTED, but no actual statistics can be found online to address this issue. Searching for “rape statistics for immigrants” or “rape statistics for migrants” brings up only articles debating whether immigration effects overall crime rates. This ERASES the sexual exploitation and common assaults on women coming into the country.

Rape of non-white openly lesbian, queer and transgender individuals is significantly higher than the “1 in 6” but actual statistics are difficult to come by. So-called “corrective rape” is not something that only happens in “uncivilized”/”backwards”/”Third World” countries.

Transgender individuals are at significantly higher risk of rape by law enforcement and immigration officials.

Contrary to assumptions, Black men, while disproportionately present in the criminal justice system and more likely to be wrongfully convicted/serve a harsher sentence for crimes, are not anywhere near a significant rape threat as they are portrayed to be.

In the U.S. 1 in 4 college women, and 1 in 5 high school women are raped and 44% of reported rape victims are under the age of 18, while 80% are under the age of 30. It’s bloody dangerous to be young.

99% of people who rape are men, 60% are Caucasian. 35% of men report at least some degree of likelihood of raping if they could be assured they wouldn’t be caught or punished.

“In one study, 98% of men who raped boys reported that they were heterosexual.” i.e., there is NO correlation between being gay/queer and pedophilia.

Persepolis is the story of Marjane Satrapi’s unforgettable childhood and coming of age within a large and loving family in Tehran during the Islamic Revolution; of the contradictions between private life and public life in a country plagued by political upheaval; of her high school years in Vienna facing the trials of adolescence far from her family; of her homecoming—both sweet and terrible; and, finally, of her self-imposed exile from her beloved homeland. It is the chronicle of a girlhood and adolescence at once outrageous and familiar, a young life entwined with the history of her country yet filled with the universal trials and joys of growing up.

Edgy, searingly observant, and candid, often heartbreaking but threaded throughout with raw humor and hard-earned wisdom—Persepolis is a stunning work from one of the most highly regarded, singularly talented graphic artists at work today. [x]

I can never put someone in just ONE house. I feel like a combo better defines them, so on that note SLYTHERCLAW

Sun, 10 Jul 2011 02:57:00 +0200

Yeah, I agree with you. People are usually a mix of two houses, but I find that one is usually prevalent. It’s easy to be a Hufflepuff veering on Gryffindor or Ravenclaw veering on Slytherin and so on. SLYTHERCLAW 4EVS, or something.
