“I think it is absolutely the responsibility of an artist to look into darkness...”

YES THIS, GODDAM.
Filmmakers need to stop using rape as an easy emotional button unless they’re saying something new or important about it, and the film industry needs to stop treating rape as if...

“Now because the majority of abortions are performed in the first trimester, if...”
– JON STEWART, on Virginia’s inhumane, inhuman and shameful “personhood” law that requires women wanting to get an abortion to, in essence, be subject to rape, on The Daily Show (via inothernews)
I love this man. Don’t tell my husband.

Oakland Cops Failing To Activate Body-Mounted... →

teaganism:
Relations between Oakland police and the city’s residents have never been good, which is one reason why the department issued body-mounted cameras to its officers last year.
The goal was to increase accountability, which is important for a department that is facing afederal takeover this March.
However, the above video, which shows several officers with their...

Adventures In Sex Work: Workers' Rights?
teaganism:
I just got home from a long night at work. I’m tired and in a terrible mood, so someone should probably take the internet away from me, but no one is doing this. So here we go with volume two of AISW! My new contract at work has a part in it that specifically mentions a waiver of class action. Here is the exact language in which this clause of my contract is written.

Stephen Colbert: What is the most beautiful thing that you know of in science?
Neil deGrasse Tyson: E = mc2.
Stephen Colbert: Really?
Neil deGrasse Tyson: Oh, it's awesome. It is.
Stephen Colbert: So that equation doesn't just have a great publicist? It's actually...? Because everybody knows it, but also everybody knows Coke. It's like the Coca-Cola of science.
Neil deGrasse Tyson: Yeah, you learn [it] before you even know what any of those symbols mean. You hear it in elementary school. It's a gorgeous thing.
Stephen Colbert: What is beautiful about [it]? First of all, tell everybody what all the pieces mean.
Neil deGrasse Tyson: E stands for energy. M is mass. C2 is just the speed of light squared. Ignore that for the moment. The thrust of that equation is that energy and mass are equivalent to each other. Which means you can transmute one into the other and back. What makes that extraordinary is that [that] hardly ever happens in our everyday lives, yet it's going on all the time in the rest of the universe.
Stephen Colbert: So we're in this little pocket where e = mc2 is not visible?
Neil deGrasse Tyson: Never happens. It's not visible. It's not happening in our lives, no. But if it did, the world would be really different.
Stephen Colbert: What is beautiful about it to you?
Neil deGrasse Tyson: It's simple. It's simple yet it accounts for hugely complex things. And for me that is where the beauty lies in the truth.

Me: *as I'm making cheesy fried potatoes for dinner* I'm kinda glad I have this house, because left to my own devices, I would probably gain like 50 lbs.
Housemate: No, because then you would also forget to eat for days at a time.

Accurate. I kinda fail at health on my own.
Somehow my tumblr has been hacked...
I hope ya’ll know that I would never post some shit about a weight loss plan, nor would I ever want to lose 33 lbs in a month.
Rawrg, it’s password-changing time.

How we teach little girls to accept abusive...
thewomaninsideme:
“On a somewhat serious note today because of a conversation the other day:
I am sure every girl can recall, at least once as a child, coming home and telling their parents, uncle, aunt or grandparent about a boy who had pulled her hair, hit her, teased her, pushed her or committed some other playground crime. I will bet money that most of those, if not all, will tell you that...

Not only what he said to him, but what Sherlock did. In The Great Game, Sherlock saved him from Moriarty. Then in The Reichenbach Fall essentially John failed to save him from Moriarty.
John is a soldier. He doesn’t hesitate to do things to save people. I’m convinced he would have done ANYTHING to save Sherlock, and that was made worse by the fact that...
