heavy trigger warnings for rape.

all right, I’ve calmed down enough to post this, and hell fuckin’ no I ain’t blurrin’ out names.

hi my name is rachael, and this is why feminism is still needed. I have nothing else to say.

yooooo if you wanna know what the fuck i was so mad about, read the following and spread it please!!

get over yourselves. even the holocaust can make for a tasteless but welltimed guilty giggle. save the crazy ranting for REAL issues. pick your battles or else you just look irrational and put people off when there are REAL problems out there like women getting their genitals cut off in africa. really now. STRUGGLE SNUGGLE gets a little perspective when faced with a real issue.

offensive jokes are still just jokes. they are intended to cause a laugh. and that’s all it’s about - intention. if you live in a world where you think every male on earth is indifferent to rape, you need to get off tumblr and actually socialise because men are not monsters. there is no ‘rape culture’. just like there is no ‘child rape culture’. or a ‘beat up people in wheelchairs culture’. it’s just a bunch of shitty aspects of life that a small slice of society takes part in. and ALL OF THEM have jokes. that people laugh at. that make it into the media.
hell, nearly every show and commercial on tv features a damn near retarded, slob husband and his super snappy, intelligent, beautiful and together wife. men face their own shit.

people make light of things - it’s a coping mechanism at it’s base. either to bring people together or to broach an uncomfortable topic or sometimes to just use a pun, man.

edit in- the people there responded badly because some chick came in, guns blazing, trying to fight. she wanted to create a problem. and young kids, like you guys are, will just fight for fighting’s sake. they aren’t talking about rape on the grand scale as being this SUPER OKAY THING, they’re responding to someone going off the deep end and playing a patronising role. sorry. matronising. when everyone is laughing, meaning no offense, and someone comes in guns blaring to insult them over it, people rear up and be just as irrational back because their pride is hurt. they were trying to laugh innocently and someone came in to ridicule. it’s embarrassing, so they responded as kids will. they didn’t rape her, man. that happened, and that’s awful, but they don’t have a part in it. she projected her emotions. which is FINE and HUMAN, but them laughing in the first place and then being upset over someone taking out their anger on them is JUST AS HUMAN.

you want to change the world? get the fuck over the first world problems of a poor offensive joke and go to the third world where they would LOVE to live in a safe society where they have the LUXURY to LAUGH at life. jesus.

you put people off a REAL PROBLEM when you’re over there crying wolf.

Highlighting major ignorance and stupidity.
So rape culture doesen’t exist…And your country is ‘safe’ one just because it’s considered 1st world…………………….
And.. whatever.

Birthday makeup!
I don’t pluck my eyebrows, I don’t wear concealer under my eyes, my skin isn’t perfect at all and the eyeshadow is smudged…
But still, this makes me so happy :)

DEAD TIRED at 2:00 am, at a tapas restaurant with my bf.

Remember the contest I wrote about a couple of months ago?
( http://flopitron.tumblr.com/post/47748525373/i-have-like-10-followers-but-im-still-giving )

Although I didn’t win, I was one of the 15 finalists :)
I had to create 3 different looks, using the same basic garment + Chilean designer stuff. (I chose a black wifebeater)

It was kind of awkward, but I had a lot of fun (and didn’t have a panic attack, as I thought could happen if I got very nervous / nobody wanted to talk to me).

American Apparel really know about that ”unisex” thing. Damn well. (English version):

feminist-space:

Unisex. UNI and SEX. What’s it really about? According to Wikipedia, the word unisex “refers to things that are suitable for either gender” (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unisex 2013-05-14). That’s nice! Something that BOTH women and men can do. Something the two sexes have in common. Like buying a shirt. Maybe a flannel or denim one. And wear it. And where to buy a shirt if not American Apparel? Gorgeous, sweet and especially cool and trendy American Apparel. After surfing around for a while I realize they also sell “unisex-clothing”. Perfect! I log on to their webpage with the word UNISEX dancing around in my mind. It echoes in my ears. Unisex, unisex, unisex.

Holy shit that’s disgusting.

365 Days of Horror: My ghost/demon/monster story

365 Days of Horror: My ghost/demon/monster story:

365daysofhorror:

It was about 5 years ago. I was 17-ish.

So, here’s my story:

I’m very close friends with my dad’s girlfriend’s daughter (I’d say ‘stepsister’ but our parents aren’t married and we don’t live together).
Anyway, one Saturday I stayed at her house. At about 3-4 am we where kinda sleepy, so…

The story of the weirdest/creepiest thing that has ever happened to me.

misconceptions about strippers.

pussy preach more sense than the fuckin government.

I want to break necks when people shade strippers. Let’s see your janky ass get out there and look that cute in 6 inch heels for 8 hours, smiling the entire time, stroking egos, pretending a dude’s breath doesn’t smell like a rotten animal.

Truth.

My sister has a Masters in Education. She got a job at one of the poorest schools in the city, but didn’t make enough money to pay to keep her tiny house heated through the Oregon winter or buy enough food or take her dog to the vet (first person who drops the word rehome gets a kick in the face.) so she quit and the only job she could get because she’s “overqualified” to work at Fred Meyers was at a strip club because she minored in ballet. I think people forget that stripping is like any other job: you have to have some experience.

And all those crumpled one dollar bills? 20% of that goes back into the club because strippers are renting the stages they dance on. Sometimes it’s more.

Despite all of that, my sister makes more money than she ever did because she works 80 hour weeks and literally never takes a day off. She teaches classes to drunk white girls, she does private parties, she does entertainment for conferences and shows.

When I had to go to the ER last February and got a bill for $800 that I couldn’t pay, my sister sent me money so I wouldn’t be sent to collections.

My sister is the classiest motherfucker in a pair of six inch heels. Anyone who calls her a dumb slut or a hoe gets their shit wrecked.

that’s the best thing i ever just heard get said

Opens up my eyes

Reminds me when I had a vicious argument with a radical fundie Catholic on a group I’m in on Facebook over strippers and prostitutes and porn and eroticism being an open subject in society.

Viaje de mi Tiranosaurio

Sun, 28 Apr 2013 23:49:01 -0400

Viaje de mi Tiranosaurio:

Viaje de mi Tiranosaurio. Mi Tiranosaurio fue invitado a la Maker Faire (gran feria de inventores) en Estados Unidos, San Francisco. AyÃºdenlo a viajar.

Signal boosting because he’s awesome.
Gabriel is a 15 year old Chilean who likes to build dinosaurs.
He was invited to San Francisco’s Maker Fair with his T-Rex (named Anacleto), but although he already bought his plane ticket, he can’t afford to send the dinosaur.
Gabriel needs 2,700,000 Chilean pesos (that’s about 5,700.00 USD).
He already reached 10% of the total, which means he can send one leg.
If you can, please help him :)
