BOOM bitches!!

this is important

I’m sorry, what was that about fat people not being able to pole dance?????

What was that about fat people not having agility and the strength to do dance moves and shit while fat???

WHAT WAS THAT?

YOU SHOULD PROBABLY ACTUALLY WATCH HER DO IT

She’s an inspiration.

"November 19th, 2013,‘Selfie’ was named the Word of the Year by the Oxford..."

“November 19th, 2013,

‘Selfie’ was named the Word of the Year by the Oxford Dictionary

Pseudo-intellectuals everywhere cried about the ‘death of the English language’

Because God forbid modern colloquial speech be recognised as valid.

Time Magazine refers to ‘millenials’ as the ‘me me me generation’

Selfish, all we care about is personal gratification

Lazy, entitled, shallow narcissists.

A picture of a girl taking a selfie on her phone is used for the cover

Because our selfishness can be summed up in the fact that we like how we look enough to document it.

We are consumed, they tell us, with our self image.

Everything is about us.

Me-me-me.

With the addition of every word to the dictionary,

‘Hashtag’. ‘Perf’. ‘Sexting’. ‘Totes’. ‘Selfie’,

The ‘me-me-me’ generation continues to make it all about ourselves,

And we should, they tell us, weep,

We should weep because we are entitled,

Because all we care about are selfies and parties and Instagram,

Because this is the generation that will one day run the world,

And for that, we should weep,

Because all we are is ‘me-me-me’.

Let me tell you something.

Every year, university tuition will be 2.3% more expensive for MY GENERATION,

MY GENERATION reports the highest levels of anxiety and depression than ANY other generation,

15% more of US than YOU will go to university,

But 46% of MY GENERATION won’t find a job until over a year after law school,

MY GENERATION, on average, is $47,628 in debt.

58% of girls in MY GENERATION feels like they are the wrong weight,

95% of people with eating disorders are part of MY GENERATION,

And MY GENERATION has a million dollar industry telling us that we are not good enough,

That we are ugly, lazy, and entitled,

And anything we do to be financially successful,

Or less stressed,

Or beautiful, god dammit,

Is in vain.

So pick up your phone,

Pick your favourite filter,

And take a goddamn selfie.

You deserve it for having to grow up in these times.”

- My poem, ‘Hashtag Selfie’. (via dingdongyouarewrong)

"Maybe it’s brave to quit your job to go paint in Peru for a year, but it’s also brave to work two..."

“

Maybe it’s brave to quit your job to go paint in Peru for a year, but it’s also brave to work two jobs to help pay for your mom’s medical bills. It’s smart to stay at the law firm until your loans are paid off. It’s OK to only tolerate your job but love your hobbies, because as soon as passions are turned into careers, you risk turning love into work.

So you don’t love your job — who gives a shit?

Are you happy with yourself? Are you happy with the way you treat people? Are you happy with your life?

”

If you would like to win the pretty girl, Helena, you can always kill some nazis for her. I hate you so much.

lucreziaborgiad:

Does such a thing as ‘the fatal flaw,’ that showy dark crack running down the middle of a life, exist outside literature? I used to think it didn’t. Now I think it does. And I think that mine is this: a morbid longing for the picturesque at all costs.

Wonder Woman Is a Feminist

superdames:

Wonder Woman was created by a feminist.

Wonder Woman was a champion of feminists.

Wonder Woman is a feminist.

If you don’t want to call her one, you probably shouldn’t be doing a book called Wonder Woman.
