i have constructed a Helpful Chart
yes, i cannot stand people who do this. especially when you’re having an argument, and when they realise they were wrong, “oh i was just playing devil’s advocate”. well either way it made you look like a shitbag, mate.
people who compete over how little sleep they got and make you feel bad for wasting precious hours sleeping when you could be carpeing and dieming and shit.
omg yes - ears ears ears all the time.

i don’t feel safe
tw: rape, rape culture
in a world where a man at work has no qualms about telling me to my face that he thinks if a woman is raped, it’s her fault for not covering up her body.
people like this are in the medical profession, the police force, the justice system. i come across them with alarming frequency, and these are just the ones who tell me. people who, if i were raped, would ask what i was wearing. i don’t feel safe in a society full of people and media which blames the victim before the perpetrator, and finds any excuse to blame anyone but the rapist.

When someone works for less pay than she can live on - when, for example, she goes hungry so that you can eat more cheaply and conveniently - then she has made a great sacrifice for you, she has made you a gift of some part of her abilities, her health, and her life. The “working poor,” as there are approvingly termed, are in fact the major philanthropists of our society. They neglect their own children so that the children of others will be cared for; they live in substandard housing so that other homes will be shiny and perfect; they endure privation so that inflation will be low and stock prices high. To be a member of the working poor is to be an anonymous donor, a nameless benefactor, to everyone else.
— Barbara Ehrenreich, “Nickel and Dimed: On (Not) Getting By In America” I recently read this book, and while several observations and statistics stuck out to me, this quote, on the last page, I believe really sums things up quite well. (via lostgrrrls)
