“Personally, I hate the way so many shows get reduced to some ship or another, het or slash, by fans and by the media, but let’s at least have a level playing field here.”

I’ve noticed a theme in recent weeks, and wanted to talk about it.

HOW TO SURVIVE A HEART ATTACK WHEN ALONE Let’s say it’s 6.15pm and you’re going home (alone of course), after an unusually hard day on the job. You’re really tired, upset and frustrated. Suddenly you start experiencing severe pain in your chest that starts to drag out into your arm and up into your jaw. You are only about five miles from the hospital nearest your home. Unfortunately you don’t know if you’ll be able to make it that far. You have been trained in CPR, but the guy that taught the course did not tell you how to perform it on yourself..!! NOW HOW TO SURVIVE A HEART ATTACK WHEN ALONE… Since many people are alone when they suffer a heart attack, without help, the person whose heart is beating improperly and who begins to feel faint, has only about 10 seconds left before losing consciousness. However, these victims can help themselves by coughing repeatedly and very vigorously. A deep breath should be taken before each cough, and the cough must be deep and prolonged, as when producing sputum from deep inside the chest. A breath and a cough must be repeated about every two seconds without let-up until help arrives, or until the heart is felt to be beating normally again. Deep breaths get oxygen into the lungs and coughing movements squeeze the heart and keep the blood circulating. The squeezing pressure on the heart also helps it regain normal rhythm. In this way, heart attack victims can perhaps buy precious time to get themselves to a phone and dial 911.

Well I just wrote a whole pamphlet for an anorgasmic person who thought she might be masturbating wrong.

I ended up putting a lot of thought into it so WHAT THE HELL, take a look if you too have trouble in that area! (Don’t worry lol it doesn’t have names on it anymore.)

p.s. this also might be helpful for guys who like girls but are confused by how vaginas work. Do any of those even follow me though?

You know what sex-ed in schools is missing? THIS. FUCKING THIS.

So let me tell you about the shittiest parent on the motherfucking planet.

I work at a grocery store and this man comes in with his 11 year old son. He buys a pack a cigarettes and a two cases of beer. The son was holding a two dollar drawing pad and placed it on the belt and I guess the dad didn’t notice it at first but when I was about to scan the pad he asked where’d it have come from and turned towards the kid and asked “Did you put that shit up there?”. He told me to put it back and then told his 11 year old child that he “ain’t paying for that gay ass notebook.”.  So I looked at the kid, who was close to tears and saying how he ran out of paper at home and my heart broke. So I gave the pad to him, for free, and told the dad I would take care of it. I gave the kid some tokens for a game outside and said I would look forward to buying some of his drawings and paintings when he’s all famous. He kids face was so priceless and I thought everything was good. But then, about 10 ten minutes after giving the kid his notebook, I walked outside and saw this. The drawing pad all ripped up and tossed on the pavement. I could only imagine what happened in the parking lot, but I know that that poor kid heart is fucking ripped apart, just like this pad.

I’m fucking horrified that there are parents like this, who, just because it’s not masculine or gender specificthey won’t let their children follow their true passions or explore interests that lead to their happiness. Even more so, I’m horrified that parents don’t care about the fine arts anymore because it doesn’t have job security. Since when did it ever matter to a child if their passion makes them money or not? Parenting is about supporting whatever makes your child happy. Have some fucking consideration for your child’s wants not your homophobic and anti-art ideals. 

Damn.

hey, just a reminder that holding suicide over someone’s head is emotional abuse. if you have someone who tells you that they’ll kill themselves if you leave them, if you stop talking to them, if you do something they do not want you to do, that is abuse- and you have every right to get out of that situation; don’t let yourself get into a situation like that. be aware.

This happened to my brother.

You know what?

I don’t care if being a lesbian isn’t natural.

Its 2013. Oreos don’t have a single natural ingredient in them that isn’t distilled out of recognition. People get their vegetables from cans. They have made cruelty-free, lab-grown BACON. People fly around in big, metal machines.

I. AM. TALKING. TO SOMEONE. ACROSS THE WORLD. IN A MATTER OF SECONDS.

Not natural. Is not bad.

Your rhetoric is no longer a valid excuse for hate.

This is why it’s so funny/tragic when people degrade Kim Kardashian for the fact that she made a sex tape, calling her a worthless slut, gold-digging whore etc (literally everyone ever’s reaction when someone mentions Kim Kardashian. Congratuations, you’re so original! And such a charming person!)
Like.. she doesn’t care. She was horny and she felt like it. What other reason does someone need to make a sex tape with their boyfriend? The fact that he was then evil enough to completely violate her privacy and release the tape without her permission is his bad. That’s on him. He’s a cunt, as is any man who publicizes naked photos and video footage of women against their will. Also a criminal.
And it was one of the most shattering things that can happen to a woman. If someone released a video of me then god, I’d be heartbroken. I’d have crawled under a rock and never come out again. But she recovered and then made a hugely successful career for herself, her mother and all four of her sisters, and… people portray that as a bad thing? “Her whole family is only famous for her sex tape!!!” Yep, and? Go on, keep calling her a pointless whore. She can’t hear you over her multiple successful businesses, tv shows, endorsement deals and the guaranteed-safe futures of herself and her entire family.

this is such bullshit, sorry

Care to elaborate?

putting the responsibility of suicide on others to the point of calling it murder is fucking ridiculous.

If one is bullied to the point where they no longer want to live, don’t the bullies have some kind of responsibility for this?
Saying murder is just killing someone directly with a physical weapon is a narrow definition, and forgives those who attack others with more psychological weapons.If one dies because they are bullied to that point, it’s no accident. I hope that by calling it murder, it brings attention to the serious consequences of bullying.

Calling it murder is wrong on so many levels it’s not even funny. The word “murder” has a clear definition. You’re just twisting it to get attention. That’s not a nice (or sane) way to get a discussion going. I don’t know about the US, but in Russia you can get in trouble if your intentional actions were clearly the reason someone commited suicide. And guess what: it’s not called “murder”. It’s a different crime punished by a different degree. Then there’s the problem of the depcom itself. It basically reads like this: ”A girl got drunk at a party, couldn’t control herself too well, got fucked and then recorded on camera in the process”. That’s not rape. As much as some people would want that to be, as much as they twist words around and issue laws that say that’s rape, it is not. It is the girl’s own damn fault as much as the guys’ who fucked her in that state. They all are drunk fucking morons I personally have no sympathy towards.

I was told by Julie not to feed the trolls, but I’m in a fighting mood.
“Calling it murder is wrong on so many levels it’s not even funny.” Meaningless sentence. There are no levels. This is the kind of sentence one uses when they don’t have a point.
“The word “murder” has a clear definition.”Yes, it does. Especially the part about “with malice or forethought” and “Reckless indifference to an unjustifiably high risk to human life”. if one is raped and then bullied to the point of suicide then there is a case here. There are enough examples in the news of how bullying has led people to suicide for people to generally understand that bullying is a major cause of it. That’s right. Bullying causes suicide. Geez, that’s all over the news here in Japan, maybe they understand the connection more than other places. If you bully someone, you are participating in something that has a high risk to the life of the victim. If they die because of it, it could be third-degree murder. You may think this is stretching it, but I believe a motivated lawyer could make the case.
“You’re just twisting it to get attention.” That’s an odd assumption, made by someone who appears to believe that attention has some kind of currency. I don’t know why attention is so important to you that you have to project this on other people, but trust me, other people do not feel this way. I make no money on this or how many notes I get so it feels more like you’re just trying to make a cheap shot more than anything (like the sane comment; my degree is in psychology and I assure you I have credentials in determining sanity).
“ I don’t know about the US, but in Russia you can get in trouble if your intentional actions were clearly the reason someone commited suicide.” I don’t know about the US either, I’m from Canada. Why are you bringing this up? Another assumption?
“And guess what: it’s not called “murder”. It’s a different crime punished by a different degree.” Good for Russia. Completely irrelevant to the rest of us.
“Then there’s the problem of the depcom itself. It basically reads like this: ”A girl got drunk at a party, couldn’t control herself too well, got fucked and then recorded on camera in the process”. Most people who read recent news got that it was about Rehtaeh Parsons, a girl from my home country who was gang raped, photographed during the rape, had the pictures shared by her schoolmates and her life made a living hell until she was forced to kill herself to avoid the bullying. That you didn’t understand this is forgivable considering you’re from Russia, but the personal attacks you felt you had to indulge in make it less so. And look at what you wrote: “ couldn’t control herself too well”. That is rape culture right there. No, it was the boys who couldn’t control themselves. Finger pointing at the woman reveals the misogyny right there.
This is the thing that pisses me off. A girl gets drunk at a party. So it’s okay to gang rape her? Why isn’t it the obvious thing to help her out and make sure she stays safe?
“That’s not rape. As much as some people would want that to be, as much as they twist words around and issue laws that say that’s rape, it is not. ” In Canada, where I am from and where this story is, it is rape. intoxicated people cannot legally consent to sex here and if you have sex with an intoxicated person you can be charged with sexual assault. In Russia, you have your own laws, enjoy them. They are irrelevant to this strip and the circumstances under which it was drawn.
“ It is the girl’s own damn fault as much as the guys’ who fucked her in that state. They all are drunk fucking morons I personally have no sympathy towards.”
This is what a rape apologist looks like. If a girl gets raped, it’s her own fault apparently.

I wish there were people like you, Clay.


If I prove myself brave, truthful, and unselfish, and someday I will be a real boy!
