People that need to shut their mouth:
People that insist that being single is awesome.
People that insist that being in a relationship is awesome.
Now hear me out. The people that say that their life is so fantastic and amazing because they don’t have to answer to a significant other and they don’t have to be responsible for anyone else need to stfu. Nobody gives a flying fuck about how you justify your singleness,...

I should really not have followed so many blogs...
Now please excuse me while I enjoy my publicly funded health care, protection of equality rights under the Charter, and Tim Horton’s Iced Cap…refreshing.
thefuckingdotcom asked: Hey :)
hows it going?
I appreciated your comment on the one post i made about feeling displaced. I have spent my entire life here in Calgary and it's just now that I've started feeling like this. The friends I have right now here are starting to show their true colours and it's not pretty.. There's so much drama always going on I just want to escape to somewhere...

socialismartnature:
A preschool in Sweden is doing its part to make Tucker Carlson’s bowtie spin around in shock and surprise.
CNN reports that the Egalia preschool in Stockholm will eliminate gender specific pronouns, and refer to the children present as “friends” rather than “boys” or “girls.” Also on the chopping block? Fairy tales that further gender stereotypes, to be replaced with...

Prepare for a So You Think You Can Dance rant:
I’m sick of these romantic love story dances that feature a kiss. Jesus, it’s pretty clear that it’s just for shock and awe value, and it seems like it’s undermining the dancer’s ability to perform those emotions. Like god forbid, the audience doesn’t know they’re supposed to be in love, they better start frenching to show what great dancers they are!

My encounter with a suicidal cyclist
Alrighty, so I’m driving home from an exam, I’ve just left the university, I’m on university drive. The max on that road is 60 (km/h). There’s a dude on a bike on the side of the road in the distance. And I swear, when I got closer to him, I thought he was just gonna stay put, but NO! He looks over his shoulder AT ME, cuts into the MIDDLE of my lane! I slam on the breaks,...

Ever feel like months after a big break up, when you’re not in constant pain anymore but you don’t think you can actually say that you’re over it? Like, on the outside, your life isn’t ruined? When you feel like you’re not necessarily living, but just existing? And the only way you can describe it is…numb? Yeah… it’s one of those nights…

"Aww, why don't you have a boyfriend?"
In my head:
Well you see, a long time ago, I met a Native elder and he told me that my first born child would be the reincarnation of one Adolf Hitler. Ever since that, I’ve decided I just wouldn’t take the risk interacting with the opposite sex romantically. In short, I refrain from dating for the good of humanity.
In reality:

I want this remembered every time feminists feel the need to apologize for the movement because some members of it have been accused of man-hating. I will not consider it a legitimate criticism until this culture has been purged of its need to...

iheartchaos:
Hidden deep in the jungles of Borneo, when scientists discovered this tiny sponge-like fungus, instead of giving it some fancy schmancy name that no one would understand, their thoughts turned to cartoons. And they named it… Spongiforma squarepantsii.

Abortions Return to Back Alleys Amid Restrictive... →
socialismartnature:
Abortion in America — increasingly illegal in all but name for everyone except the rich.
In states across the country, women are being arrested for the crime of ending their own pregnancies—though they have a constitutional right to do so in a doctor’s office. Underground abortions have returned to the United States, just as pro-choice activists have warned for years. And...

The Real Face Of Rapists (Trigger Warning)
droppingthefbomb:
There has been quite a few discussion on why telling someone to be safe, and avoid getting themselves in bad situation, is NOT victim blaming.
Sit down and listen.
This is still victim blaming. You are still perpetuating Rape Culture.
I have to make this distinction clear: there is a difference between sex and rape. There is a difference between having sex and being raped....
