As members of Georgia’s House of Representatives debate whether to prohibit abortions for women more than 20 weeks pregnant, House Democrats planned to introduce their own reproductive rights plan: No more vasectomies that leave “thousands of children … deprived of birth.”
Suck on that.
I think these are extremely hilarious. But I...
COMIC ART CORRECTIONS: The Dynamic Excuse: Why... →

comicartcorrections:
As a feminist-minded woman comic artist, I have come across a lot of complex and deeply-discussed reasons as to why women in comics look the way they do. One of the biggest excuses I get given is that it is an art style, that it makes the art dynamic, full of movement, full of tension and flow.
Thanks so much for bringing this to my attention! Reblogged for...

Thanks so much! I’m happy you like what you see. :)
I really really really wish people would stop saying shit like “appreciation of the beauty of the fairer sex”. It’s sexist and you’re embarrassing yourself, I’m sorry. No such thing as a fairer sex. And what does that make the other sex? “The less fair one”, or just “the default...

”[…] It’s important to remember that idealization of the form is not the same as sexualization of the form. Something can be idealized without being sexualized. But in superhero comics, because the forms that female characters are based on have their roots in porn…

The Dangers of Gamer Entitlement
By: Laura Parker, GameSpot AU - Posted on Feb 21, 2012
Why BioWare’s Jennifer Hepler suffered a vicious verbal attack at the hands of gamers this week.

This week, a small subset of the gaming community humiliated, defiled, and verbally attacked a female BioWare employee for the suggestion that video games should place more...

Ass bad as SOPA and PIPA were/are. As terrible and unpopular as ACTA is vastly becoming. As secret as the TPP somehow still remains to be… This is far worse than all of them.
For all the talk of SOPA/PIPA/ACTA/TPP, there’s another much bigger threat to “the internet as we know it.” It’s a bunch of countries who are seeking to use the UN’s International...

keepyourboehneroutofmyuterus:
This is masterful, powerful writing. If you read one single thing today or even in the next week, it should be this post. I’ve already read it all the way through twice. I can feel the words crawling across my skin, making it tingle.
It feels wrong to even excerpt it because the entire thing is a force. You need to read the entire thing. But here’s a small...

Who Picks the Oscars? White Men. →
newwavefeminism:
I mean, i’m sure no one is surprised by this - but these are the things we should be looking at and critiquing more harshly and actively. When organizations like the oscar selection group has a disproportionate amount of privilege on their board - these are the tastemakers that dictates the popular culture of society. Popular culture is never going to adjust unless we start...

newwavefeminism:
Just caught this while watching CNN right now. Absolutely ridiculous. An anti-immigration sheriff who produces anti-migrant PSAs is outed by his migrant ex boyfriend… Who says he was threatened with deportation if he ever won’t public*
Wow. So much going on in this one story.
*this is all according to the CNN is reporting. So i’m waiting for more actual facts later on…

Lol Hi new followers
A note: my blog is not all fanart and funnies all the time. In fact, it can be very depressing as I reblog a lot of news and current event items. I also try to keep my post count under 20 a day, so if 15+ is too many for you, might as well unfollow now~
