What the fuck is she even talking about? What’s the new feminist pet issue? I don’t understand this about science and something about a yeast infection spreading in her body? What did they do that she’s bitching about
Something is sexist, that’s all we’re told
OK so I think she’s mixing up health ed with institutional science because they’re similar in that she doesn’t know anything about either because she chose to go into women’s studies, except for that one employment quip to which I reply that she chose to go into women’s studies. See the thing about slam poetry is its a way to bitch about whatever you feel like and call it art. That’s why feminists and other activist dipheads are all over it. I wonder if there’s any slam poetry that isn’t like this. Also irks me when people gender genitalia but whatever
I’m inclined to agree. Although I can’t really talk shit about slam poetry. I’m a comedian. My art form is getting up on stage and bitching in front of a bunch of strangers.
“Hey Science!”
Which science? Natural sciences? Social sciences? Formal sciences? There are so many branches of science.
“You invented the microwave 60 years ago so you could cook your hungry man steak dinners and you’re just now getting around to my body. Thanks Science!”
No one sought to invent the microwave oven. It just happened. Percy Spencer, the inventor of the microwave oven, didn’t say “Hey, I want to heat a steak up!” What actually happened is that he had a candy bar in his pocket that melted when he was near an active radar set while he was working on building magnetrons. He decided to investigate it. Eventually him and some friends wanted to see if other food could be heated. They then enclosed the system so that no electromagnetic waves would escape and he observed what happened to different foods. Then the company he worked for patented it.
There are so many scientific discoveries and inventions that happen just on accident. It isn’t a fucking checklist. No one sits there organizing which scientific discoveries and inventions will be made when.
“Thanks Science for assuming that I like to fuck men!”
The only people related to science who care about who you’re having sex with directly in relation to their career are physicians and sexologists.
But what do you expect science to do? Science can’t force people’s assumptions to change.
“Hey Science how about you start hiring women instead of quoting Freud and calling it science?”
Do chemists widely quote Freud? Do physicists widely quote Freud? Do geologists widely quote Freud? Do economists widely quote Freud? Do mathematicians widely quote Freud? Do astronomers widely quote Freud? Do geographers widely quote Freud? Do archaeologists widely quote Freud? Do linguists widely quote Freud? Do statisticians widely quote Freud? Do computer scientists widely quote Freud? Do logicians widely quote Freud? Do marine biologists quote Freud?
No, they do not. But why would you know, it’s clear you don’t know what science actually is or the purpose of it.
“Hey Science I need a health teacher that includes the clitoris in his their lesson plan.”
How is this the problem of all of science? What would science do? Really, what’s the expectation?
By the way, my fucking Catholic elementary school taught us about the clitoris. Not in detail, but where it was. Anything further would just enter the territory of masturbation. No one teaches you about how sex is better with foreskin, about the g-spot, about the clitoris, about the male prostate, or about nipples. Why? There’s no reason to.
You teach kids about birth control. You teach kids about periods. You teach kids about conception and birth. You teach kids about puberty. You teach kids about growth spurts, voice deepening, and breast development. You teach kids about sexually transmitted diseases.
Most kids learn about masturbation fine on their own.
“Hey Science I need a boyfriend that doesn’t consider masturbation a performance for him.”
That’s not Science’s fucking problem. You’re a functioning fucking adult. Learn how to filter out shitty partners and people from your life. If you want a boyfriend with a certain trait or belief, go find them yourself.
You’re so fucking entitled that you think you don’t have to do what everyone else does. How dare you have to work to find someone who you like!
“How about you let go of the necessity of the penis, how about you stop colonizing the vagina and recognize that it discovered you.”
Give whatever drugs you’re on to me, because right now most people are more hyped about colonizing mars or the moon than whatever the fuck you think is going on in your vagina.
NO ONE in Psychology who knows what the hell they’re talking about quotes Freud.
The only people I ever see take Freud seriously are people trying to act smart by thinking they know something about psychology when really they’re just showing they don’t know shit.
SIGMUND FREUD WASN’T EVEN A PSYCHOLOGIST. He never tested his ideas (I can’t even call them hypotheses because they aren’t testable, let alone “theories”. Oh my GOD.). Testable ideas are the basis of science. And since none of his ideas were really able to be tested, Freud wasn’t a scientist. He was a guy with some ideas who decided to write them down.
Idk when it was decided that Freud is the face of psychology in the general public’s eyes but it’s really fricking tiresome.
all men are born like shitty two-dimensional characters in action movies who have a ridiculous amount of power despite being absolutely worthless in every forseeable way and then girls act as professional screenwrite who turn men they date into like. an actual human being with depth, emotions, aspirations, and the ability to shower daily and i’d like to thank all the girls who take one for the team and date boring, gross dudes and turn them into respectable members of society you’re changing the world at a faster pace than literally anyone else
Okay, this is definitely a more extreme example, but whhhyyyyy is there a whole demographic of girls so intent upon “fixing” their partners? It’s actually kinda creepy.
Alternative theory for you, hurricane clouds: those girls dated those “boring, gross” dudes because they actually wanted to. That you imagine they all want to fix men to behave better says a lot more about you than about the men you lambast.
Also, is OP implying that all gay or non-dating men stay “shitty two-dimensional characters” forever? Isn’t that homophobic?
Oh my God, I was watching the news last night and apparently a shopping centre in Perth (in Western Australia) is trialling female only car parks.
FEMALE. ONLY. CAR. PARKS.
Jesus Christ, we’re women, not helpless creatures.
When I hear something like “female only car parks”, I’m reminded of things like “colored only restrooms”.
I am a woman, and a human being. People say they want us to be equal to men, but then they turn around and say, “Here, I made you this nice, safe sandbox to play in, away from all the other children”. They might as well come right out and say, “Be a good little girl, and get in your Bubble of Privilege and Isolation. Don’t try to leave. We know what’s best for you, and remember: You owe everything to us. You’d be NOTHING without us”.
Nothing is more demeaning to me than people subtly implying that I’m incapable of taking care of myself, and need someone to hold my hand across every street. Isn’t that what “feminism” is supposed to be AGAINST? Is this how you’re allegedly supposed to be “empowering” me? I don’t recall ever saying I “need” your guidance, nor anyone else’s. Maybe if modern “feminism” stopped treating women like little glass dolls, they’d actually be closer to representing that intangible “equality” they claim to be striving for.
So what if you’re with other people who happen to be male? Do you have to park elsewhere?
Mississippi Governor Phil Bryant has just signed HB1523, which will protect virtually anyone in the state who discriminates against LGBT people on the basis of “religious freedom” as well as refuse to recognize transgender people’s true gender identity.
Among the despicable things in this bill law:
Individuals, religious organizations and certain businesses will face no punishment from the government for anti-LGBT discrimination
That includes discrimination in housing, employment, services, and especially everything specifically related to weddings
It’s also anti-premarital sex, protecting those who believe that “sexual relations are properly reserved” only for man-woman marriages
It specifically says that a person’s gender can only be determined by “anatomy and genetics at time of birth”
Obviously, that means it blocks transgender people from using the sex-segregated bathrooms that make them feel safe, comfortable and affirmed
The government will protect counseling services, foster care and adoption services who refuse LGBT people, EVEN IF those services receive government funding
People who refuse transition-related healthcare to transgender people, including mental health or fertility services, are also protected
Here is the governor’s statement on the bill:
FUCKING HELL, MISSISSIPPI.
Say what you want about Texas, at least it’s not North Carolina or Mississippi.
So if its all about “religious freedom” and it’s anti-premarital sex, then where are all the people refusing service to unmarried parents and sexually-active teens?
I feel the need to point out that the hairstyles in the original picture are most likely for a school “crazy hair day” or a similar thing, not just for everyday hair. I honestly don’t understand what the issue is with wearing goofy hair for a special event.
The worst part is that someone somewhere is going to use this false data to push their agenda
What the fuck, no way this can be real.
If this is real then I’m gonna take a guess and say the person who made it isn’t in a STEM field either. Because no one with a shred of education in science or math would think this is acceptable.
I’ve recently found out that an Artist I liked (and was actually planning on buying from) traces.
You’ve probably seen his traced works floating around here and there, all of cute headshots of girls, but if you haven’t seen his work he owns this storenvy where you can see his stuff.
But everything if not all of the things he’s selling is traced.
Some examples:
He takes images from from a company called BlueFairy, which to my understanding is a ball joint doll company.
The thing is he doesn’t even flip the image or change the color to be something less obvious, it’s straight up traced and he’s making so much money from being uncreative and original.
Please spread the word and encourage people to stop buying his traced prints!!
reblogging again because i decided to post the extra tracing shots on my instagram earlier today, and hasegawa ended up direct messaging me to request i take down the images of his artwork and linked me to this page: http://kaoruhasegawa.com/info
…which basically talks about how he totally didn’t trace/heavily copy any doll photographs to make his artwork and how the internet is ganging up on him for no reason.
it’s basically the “deny deny DENY & i’m really the victim here because the internet is full of dumb people” strategy that tends to work pretty well, especially on diehard and/or clueless fans (or fans that just don’t give a shit about art theft). i even found myself wondering, “am i jumping to conclusions???”
but shit dude, there are 12 images that match up perfectly to bluefairy’s company photos. even the hair and some of the clothes are exactly the same (there’s maybe one or 2 from the examples linked to in the original post that differ slightly, and that’s just for added volume or bangs). i’m willing to give the benefit of a doubt now and then, but there are a few too many similarities for me to ignore, and there seems pretty good reason for bluefairy to not have backed down when he and them were apparently communicating through lawyers.
afaik they are/were trying to get a public apology from kaoru hasegawa to no avail, and they haven’t managed to shut his storeenvy down either. bluefairy didn’t raise this issue as much as they could’ve because he countersued them for libel, so they’ve kept quiet about it since their first announcement while discussions are ongoing.
his site says that he considers it ‘resolved’ (oct 15, 2015) but the last message bluefairy sent me (oct 19, 2015) said they were going to keep pursuing the matter. i haven’t had any updates since then, so i’m not sure what’s going on now
tl;dr please do not buy from kaoru hasegawa
This made me really sad when I found out about it because I used to actually follow Kaoru Hasegawa on here.
If it was one or two then I could see how it might be coincidence, but with the number of pictures that line up so perfectly with Blue Fairy photos is pretty much impossible to deny.
