I don’t believe in guilty pleasures. If you fucking like something, like it. That’s what’s wrong with our generation: that residual punk rock guilt, like, “You’re not supposed to like that. That’s not fucking cool.” Don’t fucking think it’s not cool to like Britney Spears’ “Toxic.” It is cool to like Britney Spears’ “Toxic”! Why the fuck not? Fuck you! That’s who I am, goddamn it! That whole guilty pleasure thing is full of fucking shit.

Objectification is focusing on a person’s usefulness to you with total disregard for their desires. In the context of compliments, it’s not saying “You turn me on.” It’s saying “You turn me on, and whether you want to turn me on is utterly irrelevant.”
Saying “nice ass” to a person who’s deliberately wiggling their ass at you is a compliment; saying “nice ass” to a person who’s just walking by is objectification. “I want to sleep with her” is expressing desire; “I’d hit it” is objectification. “You’re sexy” is nice to say on a date because it’s a compliment; “you’re sexy” is hideously undermining to say at a business meeting because it’s objectification.Posted on May 20, 2013 via Polyverse with 3,216 notes

Something awareness ought to mean
Here’s a thing that happens:
A kid has a disability. Or is otherwise substantially atypical.
And the adults in their life don’t want them to feel different and suffer for it, so they don’t talk to them about being disabled.
And then they grow up without basic information about their body (or brain).
And then every description of how people work is different from what the kid experiences. And it’s confusing and isolating, and hard to even realize how things are wrong.
Because fish in water don’t know they are wet. It’s hard to know that the descriptions are wrong when you don’t know it’s possible for them to be right.
And then, sometimes, people who grow up that way eventually find out that they actually are different. That there is a word for the way their body and mind works. That there are other people like them, and that the world makes much more sense than they ever realized.
That’s something that awareness should mean. Kids need to know how their minds and bodies work; atypical kids need accurate information just as much as other kids do. They just don’t usually get it.

Why is it
- “Angelina Jolie is so brave to get rid of her boobs oh my gosh no breasts that’s crazy”
Instead of- “Angelina Jolie is so brave for undergoing this medical procedure in the face of the bigotry and oversexualization of women her career forces upon her.”

Angelina Jolie had a double mastectomy, in case you hadn’t heard. How dare she remove those ticking time bombs from her chest, amiright? Like, hasn’t she learned by now that her body is public domain and we all get to vote on what she does with it? Sheesh, how selfish can ya get.

You know what?
I don’t care if being a lesbian isn’t natural.
Its 2013. Oreos don’t have a single natural ingredient in them that isn’t distilled out of recognition. People get their vegetables from cans. They have made cruelty-free, lab-grown BACON. People fly around in big, metal machines.
I. AM. TALKING. TO SOMEONE. ACROSS THE WORLD. IN A MATTER OF SECONDS.
Not natural. Is not bad.
Your rhetoric is no longer a valid excuse for hate.

Basically if you are not deeply critical of your own creative endeavors at least some of the time, you are probably either Gilderoy Lockhart or Steven Moffat.

WHY ISN’T IT SOCIALLY ACCEPTABLE TO WEAR WIZARD CLOAKS IN PUBLIC
WHY
Because of the International Statute of Wizarding Secrecy, of course. I can tell someone slept through History of Magic.

I hacked into Stark Tower! I hacked JARVIS!
No. You did not.
Look at that keyboard. That is Tony. In his workshop. That his interface with his computer. I recognize two symbols on there. A home button and something that looks like the Correspondence sign from “Mage: The Awakening” (which loosely looks like the Alchemical symbol for ‘Essence’. There’s also a blurry ‘yields’ Alchemical symbol just slightly to the left).
So what you’re saying, basically, is that you somehow learned a language that a man built for himself in order to speak to his computer? Assuming, even roughly that Tony is 37 in Iron Man 1, he built Dummy around 8 or 16, and if he used this language with all his robots, that’s at least 20 years of a private language.
Learning a new language, particularly one that hasn’t been linguistically categorized, add on top of that the language being majorly pictograph/symbolic based and you have a recipe for “Damn, man.”
(I wish I could remember where I heard the quote/theory that Tony essentially thinks/creates so fast that he had to create a language for him and JARVIS so that he could get any work done to begin with)
My mother wrote in Gregg Shorthand. Grocery lists, gift lists, any private writing she did was in Gregg Shorthand. Let me give you a taste of that: Gregg Shorthand.
Yeah. Hack that.
Hacking SHIELD, Stark Industries, or JARVIS might be a good starter, but try it more from the angle of getting caught. Because unless you’re God, I doubt you got in.

we’d probably already have hoverboards if we didn’t spend so much time arguing over whether women are people and if they should be allowed to do science
