slouchingtowardsbedlam:


someone: don’t u think it’s disturbing how in the past few years the level of femininity women are expected to perform and the industries they’re expected to contribute to in order to be taken seriously, especially on platforms like social media, has skyrocketed to the point that perfect makeup, contouring, acrylic nails, and eyelash extensions have become almost a social expectation
and when women express no interest in adhering to those standards they’re met with vitriol and scorn

straight woman who thinks Legally Blonde is the apex of feminist media: okay but it’s my choice? if i want to be feminine i should have the right to choose to do that because feminism is about choice



me: I don’t shave my legs.


every other femme in the known universe: BUT I JUST LOVE THE WAY SHEETS FEEL ON MY SMOOTH LEGSSSS

Rujeana, the mother of two children decided to setup a camera of her kids in the living room. The idea was to setup a camera so their Grandma can see their kids doing cute things. Instead, she found out how her husband takes care of the kids when she isn’t there.




this turned out much happier than that wording made me think




That’s a good dad

McDonald’s Says its Wage Hikes Are Improving Service

McDonald’s Says its Wage Hikes Are Improving Service:

durnesque-esque:

dispatchesfromtheclasswar:


So McD’s increases employee wages 10% and the move leads to massive unemployment, forces restaurants to close, & bankrupts the company the first sales gains in over two years for the chain!

Almost like treating your employees like human beings mean they treat their customers better and the customers notice or something.

Hmm.


Almost like the easing of financial desperation makes you happier overall, causing you to have more energy at work and to pass the happiness along to others, including customers.




Can you imagine?
