Meanwhile at the northern Water Tribe.

Ever wonder why I'm on a feminist rampage?

Ever wonder why I'm on a feminist rampage? :

extantecstasy:

Because the media reacts like this when we’re less than perfect. Because our emotional range gets stunted and limited.

Because so many aspects of our culture normalize rape on a subconscious level.

Because Kansas and Arizona pass bills that allows the beliefs of a doctor or pharmacist to trump the health of a woman. And because fetuses are becoming increasingly more important than the woman carrying them.

Because a state representative can compare a woman giving birth to livestock.

Because legislature that criminalizes pregnancy and abortion are being forced into discussion again and again.

Because the rest of the world wants to know why American women aren’t angrier.

Because of bills that limit the time frame of my choices.

Because for some reason, religion is a legitimate reason to interfere in my uterus.

Because the Protect Life Act even exists.

Because women who miscarry or lose their babies are being charged with murder.

Because a woman who tried to commit suicide while pregnant was jailed and charged with feticide.

Because mandatory trans-vaginal ultrasound probes are legally defined as rape.

Because ectogenesis technology could further remove birthing rights from a mother.

Because programs like this even have to exist.

Because birth control is suddenly a religious issue. Because women can be fired for using birth control as a contraceptive. Because the benefits of no-cost or inexpensive birth control are overlooked. Because ignorance necessitates posts like this.

Because again and again, organizations like the Medicaid Woman’s Health Program are seen as unnecessary. Because even the Susan G. Komen Foundation tried to stop funding Planned Parenthood. And if you think we’re past that, think again.

Because America ranks among a very small number of countries that don’t have paid, mandatory pregnancy leave. In fact, women routinely get forced out of their jobs for being pregnant.

Because public discourse from men like Rush Limbaugh is insulting and misogynistic and goes mostly unpunished.

Because the U.S. Military has some of the highest rape rates and most reprehensible policies for dealing with them.

Because women are bitches for saying no and sluts for saying yes. Because we are valued by how many or few cocks have been in our vaginas.

Because this is normal.

Because I don’t know a single woman who has not been harassed, derided, assaulted. Because I know many women and girls who have been raped. Because I’ve seen the long term, life long repercussions of sexual abuse.

Don’t tell me there isn’t a war on women. And don’t tell me the economy is more important than this. This barely scratches the surface.

Repeat after Soraya Chemaly: I am a woman and I have these human rights. The right to life. The right to privacy. The right to freedom. The right to bodily integrity. The right to decide when and how I reproduce.

Important Round-Up!

Snake-handling preacher dies from rattlesnake bite in West Virginia

Snake-handling preacher dies from rattlesnake bite in West Virginia:

goodreasonnews:

West Virginia preacher Mark Randall “Mack” Wolford, who believed Christians should handle snakes to test their faith, died after a rattlesnake bit him over the weekend.

Wolford was bitten on the thigh about 2 p.m. Sunday afternoon, but he didn’t come to the hospital until 10:30 p.m., a nursing supervisor at Bluefield Regional Medical Center told the Charleston Daily Mail. The incident occurred during an outdoor service at Panther State Forest, about 80 miles west of Bluefield in southern West Virginia, the paper said.

Headline should read: Snake successfully defends self when mysterious human unnecessarily gropes it.

Maybe I won’t go totally full-blown bolinsane. Look, my own characters. Moot’s parents, in the one single instance of them doing anything cute together. Then his mother woke up and remembered that she’s a crazy bitch and had his father executed.

THE BEGINNING OF THE END OF MY SANITY

LOOK HERE IT IS

given enough time, I will only be able to portray myself as a melted puddle of vaguely human features.

I’m thinkin’ about drawing a Bolin. This is really not a big deal for most people, but I rarely draw fanart (and the rare fanart I do draw ends up being cracked out nonsense).

Also I’m afraid that if I start drawing Bolin, I won’t be able to stop and will never draw my own characters ever again.

I was originally trying to take a picture of my widow’s peak to make the argument that maybe I should grow my hair out just enough to be able to cosplay Bolin with my own hair, but then I started dicking around on the webcam, and then this gif happened. Whoops.

Unfortunately I think Tumblr has decided not to let my gif move. THANKS TUMBLRFUCK

Can we just take a second to talk about how hot his eighteen-year-old son is? I mean, really. Not only is he RDJ’s progeny, he’s also only 18, which is way less creepy than being in love with the 46-year-old Downey. Seriously, look at him. Boy’s fine.

ohM Y hello

hhhhh

That awkward moment when you look at this and a tiny part of your brain goes ‘YOU MEAN I HAVE A CHANCE?’

THIS IS MOST EXCELLENT NEWS.
