it’s a metaphor, see: you put the listening thing right between your ears, but you don't give it the power to play music. it’s to stop men trying to talk to you in public

We are supposed to read Tony Tulathimutte’s “The Feminist” tomorrow for the last day of class but apparently my school scheduled the chainsmokers to play a show in the campus parking lot at the same time, feeling like I just lost the culture war

Bro my novel anticipates that very critique. It's precisely about that bro. Its impoverished imaginative world is entirely self-conscious lmao

So much of being a tradwife is forgetting that humans figured out labor specialization 12,000 years ago

I'd argue that a 16 year old being able to vote is substantively different from a 50 year old being able to have sex with them, but that's just me!

i’m not even joking, it was hannah horvath’s brief stint in the iowa writers’ workshop that convinced me not to go to grad school.

lol sorry mate, my body is objectively tea here.

I feel like a lot of people on here are going to sneer at these young women's leftwing populist opinions, but IMO we should take them as seriously other demographics' rightwing populist opinions. What unmet political need is being revealed here?

They tanked the economy to prevent us from having fran lebowitz careers. They can’t afford that again

"A Child’s View of Gaza" No4

One of many drawings by the children of Gaza (2011) that Jewish organizations pressured an Oakland children’s museum to cancel.
Community leaders say the shutting down of the exhibition is the result of a disturbing — and well-funded — campaign to silence Palestinian voices across the US.

I will be posting all the drawings over the next week, we'll have our own exhibition for them.

This is how Palestinians are living in Gaza.

It makes genuinely no sense that Greta Gerwig never guest starred on Girls. Fresh out of the Frances Ha scene ur telling me they weren’t all moving in the same circles. Ok whatever
