After Being Failed by My College's Administration, I Posted My Rapist's Name and Photo on the Internet
It was suggested to me that I didn’t have to wait for others to agree with me that what had happened to me was wrong — that I could do something about it myself, if I really wanted.
My alma mater. I know the rapist (not well). This woman is right:
FUCK THAT NOISE

I’m sorry Fa bloggers, what were you saying about healthy food being too expensive? This among many was a great sale going on for in season produce at my kroger. Suck it.
They have buy one get one on all the mixed fruit at Publix. Ranging from small bowls to large.
OMG TOO EXPENSIVE.
LEMMIE JUST STOP AT MCDONALDS AND GET A #1…
Oh..
Wait, That’s MORE expensive?
wait…what..Check out these two classist, fat shaming fuckwits who have about jack of an idea what they’re talking about.
Uh, so strawberries being on sale at one store for a few days means that fresh food is not overpriced?
OK. Let’s just ignore all the research and legitimate studies that show that economic barriers to eating healthy don’t exist. Because someone at tumblr took a picture of a lb of strawberries on sale.
Thanks!!!
- Top Ten Barriers to Organic and Local Food Access for Low-Income Individuals : “We believe that cost is the greatest obstacle low-income individuals face in accessing fresh, and especially organic and locally-produced, food.”
- Access to healthy foods: part I. Barriers to accessing healthy foods: differentials by gender, social class, income and mode of transport in the Health Education Journal: “The main findings are that access to food is primarily determined by income, and this is in turn closely related to physical resources available to access healthy food. There is an associated class bias over access to sources of healthy food…In tackling food poverty and pro moting healthy eating, health promotion practice needs to address these struc tural issues as opposed to relying on psycho-social models of education based on the provision of information and choice.”
- Access to Affordable, Healthy and Nutritious Food (“Food Security”) by Heart and Stroke Foundation of Canada “It is often difficult and expensive to access healthy food like fresh fruits and vegetables, whole grains and foods low in saturated fats, trans fats, salt and refined carbohydrates in remote communities, including remote Aboriginal communities.”
This.
Also… someone buying a McDonalds meal instead of mixed fruit even though it costs more makes sense when it’s an actual fucking meal.

"Women aren’t raised in a culture that tells them they’re entitled to attention from men. We’re told instead that we have to earn it. And one reliable way of earning positive attention from men is to bash other women, especially women who speak out against sexism.”
“Excuse sexist behavior from men - get to be told you’re the exception. You’re not like those other girls, the bitchy ones. You’re special."

“But I’m a NICE GUY!!!!!” I shriek at the woman who wouldn’t give me her number as she huddles near her friends, terrified
But I’m a BEAUTIFUL GIRL!!!!!! The fat girl shrieked at the man who didn’t find her attractive as he ignored her and continued talking to the pretty petite co-ed that didn’t have crumbs on her chin.
oh cool fat shaming and misogyny in one post never knew that was possible.

"My lawyer gives the same speech to everyone who wants to do business with me now. ‘Nicki is not one of those artists who allow her representatives to make decisions for her.’ I’m on conference calls all day with lawyers, accountants, and executives—people of power—and they treat me with respect. Because I command respect. I’m not cocky, but I deserve to know what’s going on. It’s my brand and my life. That’s my advice to women in general: Even if you’re doing a nine-to-five job, treat yourself like a boss. Not arrogant, but be sure of what you want—and don’t allow people to run anything for you without your knowledge. You want everyone to know, Okay, I can’t play games with her. I have to do right by this woman. That’s what it’s all about."
