when a woman is faster, stronger, better at sports - it’s because “she’s on enhancement drugs” “she’s manly” “the sport is easier when it’s played by girls.”
when a woman is smarter, classier, makes more money - it’s because “she studies something easy” “slept her way to the top” “used affirmative action to get what she needs”
“overwhelmingly, men are perpetrators of mass violence” i say. this is a fact. i am reminded not to be too generalizing, because that isn’t fair. not all men, after all.
women are used to this. when we hold up serena williams, laverne cox, mae c. jemison to prove: we can do the same as you. we are told: no, those are the exception. there’s something wrong in the system or in them that makes it so they rose above their station. they’re not like other women. but every woman who is bitter, bitchy, cruel: they’re proof all women have personalities that follow the stereotype rules. it doesn’t matter that women are better surgeons, girls do better than boys in school, women are better leaders, better lawyers, are better at investing and finances, better drivers. but all women are stupid, hysterical, emotional messes that can’t drive and would nuke the country if someone called them a mean name.
but it’s not all men. not all police officers. not all frat boys. not all, just some bad apples, just some, don’t i know to judge people on the content of their character and not on who they are.
from the time they’re young, boys are given the benefit of the doubt. from the time girls are young, they’re told the majority of them will drown.
people are scrambling to figure out what is wrong with american schools that girls are doing so much better. maybe it’s because girls are suddenly now more likely to be morning people? is it unfair grading? is it some type of learning-style difference? is it all the exposure to female teachers? after all, if girls are doing so much better, there’s something wrong, right? there’s something wrong with the system?
men overwhelmingly are to blame for mass violence. just last night i watched a reporter ask the camera: “is this because of the women in his life?”
The Most Gorgeous Book Ever Has No Words Or Pictures, Just Color
This is the RGB Colorspace Atlas by Tauba Auerbach. The 8”x8” hardcover tome is pretty much an encyclopedia of every color in the RGB index. It’s huge, it’s gorgeous, and I want one.
I KNOW WHAT THIS NEEDS
It’s like they were made for each other.
i swear to fucking hell if you fuckers start shipping a book and a pen i will forcibly shove you back into the pits of hell you came from
Sensors alight, the pen trailed itself sensually down the gradient shift from yellow to blue along ample curve of paper, dipping closer and closer to the book’s spine.
“Can you imagine it?” the pen whispered, whirring and selecting #00563F with practiced intimacy. “Just picture it. With your collection and my potential…we can colour the world.”
I want a Hawkeyes movie where Hawkeyes is deaf like in the comics, and in the first five minutes he loses his hearing aids, and the rest of the movie is silent except for a constant running commentary of what Hawkeyes is thinking until the very end when he gets his hearing aids back.
And there would be closed captions or something for when people use sign language.
And when people don’t sign and he has to read lips, they should get genuinely hard of hearing people to translate so that they know what words or phrases are hard to catch by lip reading.
Also, lots of explosions with no sound. I feel like that would just be cool.
I feel like everyone worships avocado and I’m struggling because it just tastes like compressed wet grass lump but nobody will listen and I’m all alone in this world
