If I Could Sound Like Anything.
“Many men who harass women say their intent is to compliment them, but why do they usually not “compliment” women who are accompanied by other men and often only do it when a woman is alone? Why do they tend to object to other men “complimenting” their female significant other (if applicable), female friends, or female family members? Why do some men grow hostile and violent when women do not thank them and act flattered? Why do they feel compelled to compliment women at all? Rarely are they expecting a date. Many times they do not even wait to see a woman’s reaction as they fly by in their car or as they turn to start harassing the next woman. They are doing it to exert their power, to entertain their friends, to relieve boredom, or do demonstrate that they can evaluate a complete stranger to her face, just because she is a woman.”

Stop Street Harassment: Holly Kearl (via completelymoribund)
The thing that so many men need to understand is that women do not consider it a compliment when they are being harassed on the street. Women usually feel either embarrassed or terrified or a combination of the two. So stop fucking doing it.

it’s so telling that men tend to do this when they’re in a group of other men. and i’ve never had it happen when i’m hanging out with dudes, especially not when i’m with my ginormous dad (most men don’t give a fuck about harassing me if i’m with my mom who is as small as i am). so if it isn’t sexual, or threatening, and you just want to ~make me smile~ then why can you only do it when i’m perceived as vulnerable?

I would add that it rarely happens or when I am around men who know that I am dating someone at that time. Many men (certainly not all) are willing to lay off if they perceive that you are “owned” - otherwise, you’re public property, and they’re free to treat you however they like. Any competition that erupts is less to flatter the woman than to establish temporary rights to her, even if they must degrade her to do so.

that or the nature of the so-called compliments will change if youre w a man. they will go from a respectful “you look beautiful this evening” when youre w a dude to some vulgar shit about your pussy, if youre alone. because youre not worthy of respect as just a woman.

"Watch Puella Magi Madoka Magica" they said.
"It will be great" they said.
Okay, I can’t stop making these, apparently. Probably not as funny as that totally not famous no1curr about first one, but I can’t stop won’t stop making them anyway.

My hair has faded a lot. It used to be a nice shade of red, alas. Also I would love to draw but there’s this huge art block in the way.
one of the most bizarre and hilarious videos ive ever found
this guy, on a livestream, goes on the old microsoft worlds servers where a group of users distubingly seem to have been waiting since the 90s for newcomers to show around the place
I am legitimately freaked out by this. I fully believe that some pure evil force created this and whoever plays it is cursed with inevitable damnation.
This is like LSD became an MMO and, by some miracle of satan, it managed to become creepier. Like, a LOT creepier.
This is the far edge of the internet, where reason and sanity break down and the world as we know it ceases to exist.
I found this again, why didn’t I reblog it the first time
because christ
Since this came around, I feel like I should talk a bit
I promised I wouldn’t but whatever
Me and some pals played this and encountered firsthand the subject of a vast underground reservoir of paranormal lore and /x/ creepypasta.
We discovered multiple things:
1) There are legitimately people who still play this game. They still log on, chat to eachother, and converse in lingo you only thought existed in hilariously bad dating adbots.
2) There is more than likely a cult ingrained within the community. They wear similiar avatars, stalk players and send disturbing and vague messages. They appear to have control over other players and aren’t bound by the maps of the game. None of the other regulars acknowledge their existence.
3) We danced around one of which with our ridiculous avatars and he teleported us to a hell map for a satanic ritual, forcing our accounts to recite things.
4) Then he teleported us to a gay bar.
It was incredible. If you can convince some friends to experience this with you, you will hold it with you for the rest of your life.
so who wants to play this with me
Wow.
I don’t get why everyone is getting so worked up this what has happened to me every time I’ve tried loading up secondlife
I almost want to do this with someone
This is both hilarious and also terrifying
This is something angora might need to do.
