I'm finally back and I'm reading a book that makes me want the world to end.
Join me now on twitch to watch me suffer through Left Behind
Reblogging because this is seriously a great product. It's eco-friendly and works fucking great. Also, once you realize exactly how much you have actually been spending on pads/tampons, and how much you are now not spending by using reusable pads...you will be both happy (saving money! yay!) and absolutely pissed (those greedy motherfucking companies demanding twenty goddamn dollars for a week of supplies!).
i learned that in August 2014 Women’s Voices for the Earth commissioned testing of four types of Always menstrual pads, manufactured by Procter & Gamble. The certified laboratory STAT Analysis Corporation analyzed the products for volatile organic compound.
“The results of the testing indicate that both scented and unscented Always pads emit toxic chemicals, including chemicals identified by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services National Toxicology Program, the Agency for Toxic Substances and Disease Registry, and the State of California Environmental Protection Agency as carcinogens, and reproductive and developmental toxins. None of these chemicals are disclosed on the product by the manufacturer.” (x)
People really out here replying to my posts and immediately blocking me
Izuku is special because of who he is, not because of what his genetics happened to be.
His bravery, curiosity, determination, empathy, and so many other great things about him make him the perfect recipient for OFA. Not the fact that he happened to be quirkless
I am actually not a fan of the whole “OFA kills any holder who has a quirk so Izuku was the perfect successor” thing.
Not only because that reveal wasn’t delivered well, but because I think it undermines Izuku and makes his quirklessness the most special thing about him when it comes to One for All.
To me, Izuku wasn’t the best candidate to be an One for All holder because he happens to have the prerequisite not to die from it. He is the best candidate because he is the one chosen by All Might, because he was given a quirk incredibly difficult to handle and not only made it his own but reached the level of his classmate in less than a year, because he is smart, because he had empathy, because he will always choose to help people, and so on.
I got reminded of the movie Mighty Aphrodite today.
And, like, how did we ever think Woody Allen was okay?
It's about a man, played by Woody ofc, who adopted a son and wants to meet the kid's birthmother (Mira Sorvino) to find out what she's like in case the kid wants to meet her when he's older. Sounds okay so far, right?
BUT! It turns out that she's a sex worker. She's a prostitute and she's done porn in the past. Well that's just not acceptable to poor flustered Woody. He worms his way into her life, without letting her know who he is, so that he can save her from such a terrible lifestyle. Iirc she's actually pretty happy and isn't struggling. Not that her happiness or quality of life anything to do with his motivations - he just doesn't the woman who birthed his son to be involved in sex work.
So yeah, lies to her constantly to get involved in her life. He decides that she needs to quit sex work and get herself a husband. So he sets her up with....some dude. Some dude who has obvious anger problems and a clear hatred of women. He then lies to the dude about her career and convinces her to lie as well because no respectable man wants to be involved with a prostitute.
The dude beats her up after seeing her in a porn film he was watching with his buddies. Because it's totally fine for him to consume the content, but absolutely wrong of her to create it. He then leaves her. He's not treated like a villain btw. If anything, the movie seems to think she was in the wrong.
After this, Woody finally decides that he has no business meddling in her life like this and takes off. Doesn't cop to who he is or what he did or anything, but he at least left her alone.
And then the movie ends with them running into each other like two years later. And he still lies to her. And it turns out that she married a pilot that she met because of him, had a baby, and now she's a stay at home mother. Her life is all sunshine and roses now thanks to Woody Allen deciding to be her savior. Everything he did was good actually because she's a tradwife now.
I...just...how do we let men tell on themselves this much and then hand out Oscars for it??
My computer has been moved. Unfortunately, that means no stream tonight.

1) TIL Hank Green is bi. Neat.
2) Of course the replies on this immediately devolved into 10 year old bs about how John Green is bad because he wasn't cool with people calling him a pedo based on vibes. Good grief
