Peeing in public should even be an argument anymore. Peeing is done to expel waste from the body. If you don’t like it close your eyes. No one pees in public for the attention or to seduce others, fucking weirdos. Leave us alone.

Peeing in public is different than trying to feed a child.

hey @blakesrainyinnocence do you pee out of your nipples?

If yes, see a doctor

If no, then shut up

Also, are we going to pretend that men don’t already pee in public? 

Supporters of public breastfeeding: Hey, babies should be able to eat in public~

Some absolute weapon of a cis dude: Hmm, how can I make this about my dick?

Moms: my baby’s hungry

Mr. Galax E. Brain: DOES THIS MEAN I CAN RUB OIL ON MY ERECT PENIS AT WORK. CAN I CHURN THE BUTTER DIRECTLY OVER YOUR DESK. CAN I GLUE GOOGLY EYES ON MY NAKED LIMBS AND MAKE THEM RATTLE BY DOING AN X-RATED FUNKY CHICKEN DANCE WHILE MY MOM WATCHES. CAN I TAPE DICK PICS ON EVERY DOOR OF MY APARTMENT BUILDING AND STAND IN THE COURTYARD CHANTING “I’M A NAUGHTY LITTLE HEDGEHOG” AS EIGHT CHEERLEADERS WHIP ME WITH DEEP-FROZEN BAGUETTES.  CHECKMATE FEMINISTS

Pro-lifers view fetuses as having equal personhood to born children. At the core of the pro-life movement, controlling the woman has nothing to do with it, it’s about protecting the life of a child. Which is why there are so many pro-life women. It’s not rooted in authoritarianism, it’s rooted in the belief that the distinction between an unborn and born person is mostly if not completely arbitrary. But if it were about regulating bodies, pro-choicers would also be pro-drug legalization.

A pregnant person’s body is not an arbitrary distinction. Infanticide is murder and abortion is not because the latter has a justifying reason–the pregnant person’s refusal, for whatever reason, to keep providing their body to the fetus’s survival. Protecting children is an admirable goal but you can’t force people, the vast majority of them women, to give fetuses the use of their organs and to undergo the pain and risk of childbirth.

While I don’t think every person who opposes abortion wants to control women, it’s also disingenuous to say the desire to control women’s bodies has “nothing” to do with anti-abortion beliefs. Anti-abortion beliefs are correlated with sexism (link), and mainstream anti-abortion beliefs have a strong theme of punishing women for having sex. And yes, women can absolutely have internalized sexist beliefs.

It’s also not the best argument to compare abortion rights which protect a person’s bodily autonomy, to drug laws which regulate the public availability of substances deemed to be dangerous. A better analogy would be, if anti-abortion people believe so strongly that a right to life overrides bodily autonomy they should also be okay with compulsory organ donation, or at least blood and tissue donation.

And why the weird silence on the tens of thousands of embryos in fertility clinics being discarded, i.e. killed? Shouldn’t the biological mothers of these children be compelled to implant them in their uteruses and give birth to all of them? Or be made to donate them to anyone who offers to implant them and carry them to term? Or maybe governments could compel people with uteri to implant and give birth, if there are no volunteers. Here’s an idea: We can put people in jail for getting or attempting to get abortions (murder or attempted murder according to anti-abortion people), and then make them implant and carry unwanted embryos to term as part of their, ahem, prison labor.

If anti-abortion people find these ideas horrific, why the arbitrary distinction? Isn’t an embryo in a freezer as much a baby as one in utero?

Shouldn’t forced-birthers also be anti-masturbation? Think of all those millions of unused babies that get wasted whenever a man’s sperm doesn’t get to fertilize a woman’s egg!!! Every time a man jacks off is a mass killing! :O

I was talking with a friend who recently (within the past 2 weeks) saw TLJ for the first time. One thing she said she really had an issue was (I’m quoting her) “Rey and Poe flirting at the end” because she thought Finn and Rey were endgame. I told her not to worry about it because JJ Abrams wasn’t likely to go there. But looking at the TLJ novelization, that part was a big nothing, so I’m wondering why Daisy and Oscar played it that way? Is there a script available so I can see the direction?

I’m still amazed at the ability of viewers, both for and against Doomerey, to blow a literal “hi” out of all proportion. Poe and Rey saying hi is more romantic than Rey crying on Finn’s chest or her giving him a message we don’t know. Sigh.

A script with directions is not available for TLJ so far as I know, only transcripts of the dialogue.

Brace of you to assume the last dumpster fire even had a cohesive script

You know what FUCK IT.

if people can make ships out goddam nothing than so am I,

Rey and Rose *Rosey* I ship them together.
*I know not ever outside the box ship name but am rolling with it*

Stormwookie! Make it happen, JJ! I saw that bridal carry! Chewie has been shipping Finnrey, just because he’s being a good mate for Rey and Finn!

I’m more into Poe/BB-8

Excuse me? You’d ship a man with his dog?!

Reybacca 4evar!!!!

I’m all into this dog stuff now!

And you ship a Wookiee with one of his dogs!!!

Hello, Humane Society? I have a tip I’d like to call in…

Zomg it’s JUST FICTION, KARENINA!!!

We all know Snoke/Leia has been the true OTP! Darth Stroke all day!

Darth Stroke cared enough to manipulate Ben from when he was in Han’s left nut, and he was there to lovingly guide future Kylo into Leia’s womb. The opposite of love is not hatred but indifference ❤️

How would you rank the Droid characters?

image
  • Looks like he was created by committee to be as cute and saleable as possible
  • Accused Finn of being a thief and got him beaten up

  • “Move, ball.”

5. R5-D4

image

2. K2SO

image
  • Former Imperial droid that did NOT get a weaksauce makeover on joining the Rebellion
  • Tol boy slouches when he walks
  • Has the purest expression of droid-organic bonding with Cassian

  • Mouth looks like a mandible or a vagina

  • Would cheerfully murder you in your sleep
  • What’s not to love
