THE LAST ONE, RIGHT?
This bitch. I want a show of just her and Brienne. The end.
I haven’t been watching this series, and I’m sure the actress who plays her is fantastic, but this is NOT what Ygritte looks like.

Damnit, I need to move out of Aberdeen.
A catcall is entirely about reminding you that you are not yours. The purity myth is entirely about reminding you that you are not yours. The fetishization of female purity in a world where catcalls are an acceptable form of communication telegraphs one thing very clearly:
“Women, stop sexualizing yourselves—that’s our job, and you’re taking all the fun out of it.”
The sexualization of women is only appealing if it’s nonconsensual. Otherwise it’s “sluttiness,” and sluttiness is agency and agency is threatening.

Republican legislators in Arizona are attempting to pass legislation that forces transgender people to only use public restrooms, dressing rooms and showers associated with the gender listed on their birth certificate. According to the Associated Press, conservative lawmakers are proposing the legislation in response to a human rights bill passed by the city of Phoenix which prohibits gender identity discrimination in public accommodations.

Arizona is doing everything it can to be the 1950s Alabama of 2013.
I still, every time I hear about this I go “really, they’re really making an Ender’s game movie? It’s not just a fan trailer sort of thing?” Because I’ve been hearing that Ender’s Game should be a movie since, I don’t know, the 1990’s? Took a while.
And just like that, a little bit of my faith in humanity was restored.
