The man who sent “free p*ssy” to the group chat was on a pre-med track. He was going to be a doctor when he sees half the human race as glorified fleshlights.

And if that single fact doesn’t highlight for you how violence against women becomes a systemic societal issue, I don’t know what to tell you.

They ate babies.
They raped toddlers.
They trafficked teens.

That's not funny. Epstein is not a meme.

I fucking love people who become more themselves with age. Stranger taste. Clearer boundaries. Louder laugh. Less interest in impressing random people. Watching somebody slowly stop auditioning for the world is fucking beautiful.

Raising boys who won't commit sexual assault is NOT enough. Raise them to be the man in the group chat who texts back: NO, stop this, and I'm calling the cops.

A curfew on girls does not make society safer. It merely forces women to carry the burden of male behaviour.
If anyone needs to be home by 8 pm, perhaps it’s the gender making the streets unsafe.

people feared that mamdani was too young to oversee a city like new york and now he’s proven everyone that he’s capable of making NYC better and better.

Real feminism leaves room for the idea that no matter HOW feminist/womanist you are, you are still suffering under the patriarchy, we do what we can to cope/survive, and there’s always something to unlearn. The notion of a perfect woman uncompromised by patriarchy is a falsehood. No such woman navigating the world in any real way exists.

[Deja @dxjaf]

as a woman, you are always going to be your best investment. never stop investing in yourself, whether it’s physically, financially or mentally.

[King Roy @RoyIsThaTruth]

Nolan Wells didn't drown. Emmett didn't whistle. Philando didn't reach for a gun. Trayvon didn't harass. Sonya Massey didn't call the police to die. Ahmaud didn't trespass. Breonna never woke up. Sean Bell didn't make it to the altar. George and Eric couldn't breathe. Rekia didn't pose a threat. Laquan was walking away. Kendrick did not roll himself up. Mike Brown was only jaywalking. Sandra Bland did not commit suicide. Botham Jean couldnt enjoy his ice cream. Tamir Rice didn't have a gun.

[Maryam @hell_line0]

I watched a video about a female grizzly who adapted to raising her cubs within 100 ft of humans. Experts surmise that she does this because male grizzlies will avoid humans (and male grizzlies are a threat to cubs). So women pick the bear, the bear picked humans and no one picked men. A modern day fable if you will.

Declining an internship to Paris to spend the summer with your boyfriend is INSANITY.

Stay open enough to receive. There are still people you haven’t met, places you haven’t been, and abundance you haven’t even imagined yet.
