It’s like this…

You’re fourteen and you’re reading Larry Niven’s “The Protector” because it’s your father’s favorite book and you like your father and you think he has good taste and the creature on the cover of the book looks interesting and you want to know what it’s about….

YES. WORK IS CRAZY. I am so busy all the time. I’m the hiring manager and we’re hiring like crazy. Plus, I’m doing the stupid thing and getting back with this girl. So, yeah. AND YOU?

Lima Heights Adjacent: So I have this favorite story. Maybe you've heard it?:

themostrandomfandom:

Once upon a time, there lived two cheerleaders who fell in love maybe over years or maybe overnight, but deeply and truly and with their whole hearts. They were both afraid, feeling so much for each other. They were afraid of changing because power brings about change—and their love was powerful….

"Let someone love you just the way you are – as flawed as you might be, as unattractive as you..."

Fri, 03 May 2013 11:06:03 -0400

“Let someone love you just the way you are – as flawed as you might be, as unattractive as you sometimes feel, and as unaccomplished as you think you are. To believe that you must hide all the parts of you that are broken, out of fear that someone else is incapable of loving what is less than perfect, is to believe that sunlight is incapable of entering a broken window and illuminating a dark room.”

“Love, it was good to talk to you tonight.
You lather me like summer though. I light
up, sip smoke. Insistent through walls comes
the downstairs neighbor’s double-bass. It thrums
like toothache. I will shower away the sweat,

smoke, summer, sound. Slick, soapy, dripping wet,
I scrub the sharp edge off my appetite.
I want: crisp toast, cold wine prickling my gums,
love. It was good

imagining around your voice, you, late-
awake there. (It isn’t midnight yet
here.) This last glass washes down the crumbs.
I wish that I could lie down in your arms
and, turned toward sleep there (later), say, “Goodnight,
love, It was good.””

I suggest all females watch this.

*i suggest all humans watch this.

THIS SHOULD BE REQUIRED WATCHING FOR ALL HUMANS

I’m a 17 year old white guy living in middle class America. I’ve never exactly been a supporter of feminism because that kind of thing has never really affected me personally. I don’t notice it and I don’t care about it. But in nine minutes this video has made what is truly a serious problem extremely apparent. Those “why I need feminism” posts or those slut-shaming or rape culture campaigns never convince me of anything. But this video actually did I think.

tl;dr This video kicks ass, just watch it.

i rewatched this and i’m still really mad this is really important

Margaret Cho said it:
I DON’T KNOW HOW WE SURVIVE THIS.

(perhaps it’s secretly because we are the stronger ones.)

THIS IS SO INCREDIBLY IMPORTANT.

If you do nothing else with 9 minutes of your day, then watch this!

The dog on the left is every straight person who tells me that Bram shouldn’t bother me because love is love.

I am the dog on the right.
