“Well, maybe they shouldn’t come here illegally.”

I’ve seen this phrase used a number of times in response to outrage over the handling of migrants at the border, i.e. detention camps, putting people in cages and tents, separating children from their families, and so on.

I want to make one thing crystal clear: when you say that, you’re using the language of abusers. It is akin to:

She wouldn’t have been harassed if she didn’t dress like a whore,

If she didn’t want to get raped, she shouldn’t have drank so much,

The other kids wouldn’t pick on him if he weren’t such a pussy,

I wouldn’t have to beat her if she didn’t talk to that other guy,

He wouldn’t have been shot if he didn’t break the law,

If she were more trustworthy, I wouldn’t have to monitor her communication,

If she was keeping his money from him, he should have left the relationship. He needs to own his decisions.

This is called victim blaming. It is abuse.

The truth is that America can enforce its borders without violating human rights and treating other people as subhuman. The federal government, and by that I mean the executive branch and its agencies under President Trump, does not need to execute the law in the way it’s doing. It chooses to do so proactively.

Stop the abuse, stop the language of abuse.

Good day,

Tom

Crossing the border illegally is a misdemeanor. You don’t lock people up and take their children for parking tickets.

do you ever watch something and think “this was written by a man”

i was up late night watching an episode of criminal minds fairly recently, for lack of a better thing to do. in the opening scene there are these two girls getting into their car in like a supermarket parking lot, not very well lit, in the middle of the night. another car drives up right behind theirs and won’t move out of the way so this one girl is like “im gonna go see what this guy’s problem is” and gets out of the car, in a poorly lit parking lot, to confront a man who was behaving aggressively to them.

so that was the precise moment i realised that episode was written by a man.

I was watching an episode of CSI where the entire reason they were going forward with the case was that ‘no woman would wear a bra this expensive without also wearing the matching panties’. What porn logic is this? I was, at that moment, wearing the exact bra the Jane Doe was wearing and fuck no I didn’t spring for the matching panties. Even if I did, I wouldn’t wear them as often as a bra. Panties I wash daily. Bras? Not so much.

But in CSI World, police resources were being mobilized on how irregular it would be for a woman to wear a $36 bra, but not caring about how she would look in just underthings.

Never mind not matching, but that they think $36 is expensive for a bra is probably the number one sign it was written by a man.

In Star Wars Padmé goes for Anakin while Ewan McGregor is around

Constantly.

All. The. Time.

The only two male writers I’ve ever come across who write really wonderful female characters are Armistead Maupin and Alexander McCall Smith. The latter writes the world as he wishes it was, rather than what it truly is, but I’m very grateful for it. And if you love the characters in Sense8 and haven’t read Armistead Maupin’s Tales of the City books… go find them NOW!

amanitacaplan:

“Season one was all about the sensates getting to know what it meant to be a sensate. Now that we know more how to visit and share and we’re gaining control over it, we are together a lot, so the choreography is interesting.[…] Especially when all eight of us are in a scene, it’s very interesting to make sure we’re all doing the right thing and facing the right way, finding our light and not blocking anyone out. To see the way it all comes together in editing always blows my mind.” - Jamie Clayton

There were some truly awesome sequences.

Fri, 15 Jun 2018 20:34:43 +1000

alicerobertstext:

“That dismissal of romance as a genre is a political act. It’s about dismissing women, their sexuality, and their relationship expectations (especially those involving men). By tarring romance as inconsequential, as trash, women are denied a prime avenue for exploring themselves and their world. Meanwhile, male-focused stories about love and sexuality are heralded as literary fiction, no matter how navel-gazing or masturbatory. If that’s not political, what is?”

I’m not a fan of romance as a genre, but… THIS! ⬆️
