“games with female protagonists don’t sell”
suddenly every penny given to the tomb raider and metroid franchises disappears
portal and resident evil no longer sell out at stores
bayonetta is never to be seen again
half of the final fantasy games vanish into thin air
female protags have never sold
it was all a lie

"Fiction is dangerous, Gaiman explained, because “it lets you into others’ heads, it gives you empathy, and it shows you that the world doesn’t have to be like the one you live in.” That imaginative leap into other minds and other worlds is surely the reason many of us read fiction."
Kal-El the kitten is doing her best, but needs food, a vet & a permanent person. Can you help? Contact @jrblackwell
I was driving home today when I saw a kitten run out in front of a car. I immediately pulled over and ran after it. It darted under a trash can, and it took four people and a t-shirt I found in the back of my car to rescue it.It didn’t want to be picked up, but as soon as it was wrapped in the blue shirt, it calmed down and relaxed, and was quiet on my lap for the ride to my friend Kyle’s house.
Kyle (who took this photo) was kind enough to give me some cat supplies and some money for kitten formula.
I cannot keep a kitten.I love animals but my husband is throat-close-up allergic to cats. If you live in the Philadelphia area, and you want an adorable tiny kitten, please get in touch. I don’t want my husband’s throat to close up, and I don’t want to give little Kal-El to a kill-shelter, so if you know someone or you are someone who can take this kitten, please let me know.
If you don’t know anyone, signal boost is appreciated!

“I think a lot about what makes a strong female character. You know, movies and TV shows, these things have influence, my own website. So I think the question of “What makes a strong female character?”, often goes misinterpreted. And instead we get these two-dimensional superwomen, who maybe have one quality that’s played up a lot. Like, you know, a Catwoman type, or she plays her sexuality up a lot and it’s seen as power. But they’re not strong characters who happen to be female, they’re completely flat and they’re basically cardboard characters.
The problem with this is that then people expect women to be that easy to understand, and women are mad at themselves for not being that simple. When in actuality, women are complicated. Women are multifaceted. Not because women are crazy, but because people are crazy. And women happen to be people!”-Tavi Gevinson for TEDTalks [x]

One time in class we were talking about abortion and most of the girls talking were pro-choice and it was a generally calm discussion then one of the pro-life boys used the phrase
“if a girl is stupid enough to get herself pregnant in the first place-“
…he didn’t get to finish the sentence
