Just thought I’d share this charming piece of graffiti from near my home.

By the way, this is the ONLY women’s library in the country, it has only women’s work in it and also serves as a sort of feminist museum. They’re affiliated with a university close by and hold regular events such as workshops and talks on subjects like the poetry of immigrant women of colour or the representation of mental health in women’s literature. Its also due to be closed down by the Conservatives.

Can men go in and borrow books written by women?

Yeah, totally, they even do events for men by women on intro to feminism, rape culture stuff sometimes!

god forbid women have a single fucking thing without men getting jealous like fucking children

White privilege is being able to view the British Empire as history’s “good guys” without controversy, for their role in the world wars, while conveniently forgetting that they also killed millions of Indians through preventable famines and massacres throughout the British Raj.

The question why I would LET Willow cut her hair. First the LET must be challenged. This is a world where women, girls are constantly reminded that they don’t belong to themselves; that their bodies are not their own, nor their power or self determination. I made a promise to endow my little girl with the power to always know that her body, spirit and her mind are HER domain. Willow cut her hair because her beauty, her value, her worth is not measured by the length of her hair. It’s also a statement that claims that even little girls have the RIGHT to own themselves and should not be a slave to even their mother’s deepest insecurities, hopes and desires. Even little girls should not be a slave to the preconceived ideas of what a culture believes a little girl should be.

i heard some kids talking this morning during breakfast about how tumblr is just full of bad puns and weird porn and they don’t understand it and i just turned around and said “my puns are excellent” and turned back around

none of my popular text posts even involve puns

actually on second thought you guys should make this post popular just so maybe it will show up on their dashboard and i can just nod smugly at them tomorrow morning
