I like to think I'm pretty awesome. But that's probably not true... I like to cross-stitch and read in my spare time. I get nerdy over comic books, regular books, Harry Potter, Lord of the Rings, history and music. I'm a fatty, I loves me some food. I'm a college student, majoring in Literature and dabbling in Computer Science.I live in Chicago with my boyfriend and our two cats. And I work at the bookstore around the corner.

If you've got questions, just hit my ask. :)

You SHOULD know this, because it is INCREDIBLY important and something that wasn’t acknowledged until very, VERY recently.
(I did a history project on this in Y9. We got to do something from the 20th century; everyone else did, like, Marilyn Monroe, and I read a translation of Moi, Pierre Seel, déporté homosexuel and then did my project on that. Cheerful, no, but important to know about, yes.)

whaaaaat, seriously?!

In 1950, East Germany abolished Nazi amendments to Paragraph 175, whereas West Germany kept them and even had them confirmed by its Constitutional Court.
Well, that’s horrifying.



Oh my god

Homosexual concentration camp prisoners were not acknowledged as victims of Nazi persecution.[7] Reparations and state pensions available to other groups were refused to gay men, who were still classified as criminals — the Nazi anti-gay law was not repealed until 1994, although both East and West Germany liberalized their criminallaws against adult homosexuality in the late 1960s.
“Gay Holocaust” survivors could be re-imprisoned for “repeat offences”, and were kept on the modern lists of “sex offenders”. Under the Allied Military Government of Germany, some homosexuals were forced to serve out their terms of imprisonment, regardless of the time spent in concentration camps. (X)

Also worth mentioning that homosexuals are still largely unacknowledged as victims of the Holocaust even within circles where they should know better.  For example, in the Holocaust Museum in DC and Yad Vashem in Jerusalem, gay deaths are acknowledged only in passing and there is not a single picture of a “man of the pink triangle” - only of an empty ballroom that had once held a gay dance club.  When Yad Vashem was completely redone in 2005, gay groups pressed for inclusion alongside other non-Jewish groups such as the disabled, Roma, etc., and numerous senior-level officials and the Rabbinate condemned such requests for inclusion, with some going so far as to suggest that the homosexuals were German criminals and therefore did not belong in the same category as the Jews who had done nothing wrong.  When the memorial to gays in the Holocaust was unveiled in Berlin four years ago, senior members of Yad Vashem condemned it and, in particular, its proximity to the memorial for Jewish victims of the Shoah.

WHAT?!


Today feels like a good day for a rant, doesn’t it?

I was friends with this kid in high school, we were like bffs. My friend Alyssa, him and me were like The Three Musketeers. 

Now, it’s been (fuck) seven years since we all graduated and she moved to Louisville with her husband, I moved to Chicago with my boyfriend… She and I have pretty much stopped talking to him, we just had the complimentary “we were close in high school” friends on Facebook thing going… He is the only one stuck at home, complaining that he has no job and nobody wants to do anything with him and that he’s lonely and wishes he had a girlfriend because he really wants to have a family some day….

HAHAHAHA. No.

Like I said, he complains and complains and COMPLAINS about not having a girlfriend… And then, posts shit like this:

And my favorite:

Really? REALLY? You wonder why no one wants to date you, when literally ALL you do is objectify women all day on facebook? I mean… This was just within 5 minutes of going through his insane amount of pictures that I found all these. There are worse. I promise.

I’m a girl. I get it. BOOBS ARE AWESOME, but we are more than boobs. We are not baby factories. We are not the cooks and maids. We are people. Just like you. We have thoughts and brains and personalities and feelings. I don’t know a SINGLE woman that would find this behavior attractive… In fact, it’s quite repulsive.

And the wing man thing… seriously. This guy is pretty large himself, not that it’s a bad thing, but who is he to complain about it? A.) A woman/person’s body is not there for your pleasure and B.) The whole notion of wing man is pretty gross when used in this context.

Seriously. Get a life and stop treating women this way. It’s gross.

Hello ladies!  Sending out a little community warning.  If you are friends with or know a Tom Watson on facebook who is involved in the BBW/FA community and also known as The Fez on the community boards/forums, I’m letting you know to stay clear of this man.  He met up with someone I know in Oxford, stole 250£ from her one day, slept with her and then stole 205£ the following day.  He has admitted to it as well.  Just to let you ladies know he is not to be trusted.  I’ve attached the post from facebook.

Signal boost.

Beautiful.

I saw this a lot in high school; the popular kids complaining that they were socially awkward or saying they had an anxiety disorder because they think it makes them look cooler. Like being scared of everything and being so sick with worry is something to aim for…
