Typing up a transcript of a video for the conference to show tomorrow, any suggestions about how to format it? It’s a series of cut interviews—should I provide descriptions of each person? Anyone have helpful guides to make it accessible and…. done correctly?

How to Talk to Little Girls - Latina Fatale →
Little Maya was all curly brown hair, doe-like dark eyes, and adorable in her shiny pink nightgown. I wanted to squeal, “Maya, you’re so cute! Look at you! Turn around and model that pretty ruffled gown, you gorgeous thing!” But I didn’t. I squelched myself. As I always bite my tongue when I meet little girls, restraining myself from my first impulse, which is to tell them how darn cute/...

In a February 12 interview on Canal Plus TV, François Hollande, Socialist Party candidate for president in the upcoming elections, proposed as a “solution” to the presence in France of Roma European Union (EU) citizens “the creation of camps … to accommodate them”.
The association of a “solution” in relation to specific racial groups with special camps can only...

So when Amanda Marcotte says the exact same thing about Rihanna that WOC bloggers have been saying for months, & suddenly it’s a good idea not to judge her? Farreal, that’s when white feminists can hear that being a survivor is more complicated than doing what makes other people feel good? Mmm..okay. I see I need to spend less time giving away content & more time...
fyi y’all, I’ll be liveblogging the Take Root: Red State Perspectives on Reproductive Justice Conference today and tomorrow over at the Oklahomans for Reproductive Justice page. Follow it, I will maybe be funny and at the very least be informative!

You all better freaking reblog the shit out of this, or I’ll be mad at you forever.
Everyone everywhere should be against this.
We passed the transvaginal ultrasound bill a year before Virginia and Pennsylvania even started TALKING ABOUT IT. A YEAR. AND IT PASSED. IT IS A LAW, RIGHT NOW, IN OKLAHOMA. Legislation enacted in Oklahoma effects legislation passed...

there are so few things that hurt me more than knowing someone I love and respect has been convinced by horrible, dehumanizing pro life rhetoric, especially people who know my family intimately.

A New Policy Against Self-Harm Blogs
flapjackstate:
staff:
One of the great things about Tumblr is that people use it for just about every conceivable kind of expression. People being people, though, that means that Tumblr sometimes gets used for things that are just wrong. We are deeply committed to supporting and defending our users’ freedom of speech, but we do draw some limits. As a company, we’ve decided that some specific...

Watchhearnebraska:
Omaha rock band Millions of Boys has one of those basements that everyone fears: the ones with dead girls. As terrifying as that sounds, (although I’m sure some are very intrigued), the song is definitely a catchy tune. Don’t let those zombie chicks scare you, tune in and watch the full video. Also, go ahead and buy the band’s new album, Competing for Your Love, digitally at Golden...

In light of recent attacks on women’s autonomy and sexual sovereignty by Oklahoma’s legislators I drew this little guy as a mascot for my good friends at OK4RJ.

Anonymous asked: "why I’m not okay with tonight’s glee episode" Yeah this post? Makes you sound like a whiney bitch. Coming from someone who has attempted suicide, tip-toe-ing around an emotionally unstable person's emotions is about as effective as straight up telling them they should have gone through with it. You may have attempted suicide as well, but everyone has different remedies....
