Seriously y'all men need to get out more, women have been wearing pants for a long time now.

MUTHERFUCKER I AM 33 YEARS OLD CARRYING A KNIFE AND WEARING COMPOSITE TOED BOOTS LET ME INTRODUCE THEM TO YOUR FACE

Well, maybe not intentionally, and certainly not loudly enough for society in general to take notice.

But alien microbes trapped inside of an asteroid or meteorite that actually makes it to the surface of the Earth more or less intact? It's more likely than not.

Too often we are excluded from the decision making process that directly impacts us, mainly because stigma has created the narrative that being junkies and addicts means don't know our own minds and will always choose the most destructive path so we shouldn't have a say.

Okay good, sorry just had to check.

Oh man. Now I’m remembering my brief foray into teaching, and observing a class (this was in the run up to the Iraq war), and one of the students said “I don’t understand. We’re always being told that violence isn’t the solution, but it seems like the government is using violence as a solution.”

The actions of self destructive adults harm and traumatize children who grow up to be self destructive adults who harm and traumatize children who grow up to be self destructive adults who harm

The only time I've ever actually hit someone was the really drunk guy who was trying to take my pants off after I said no. So I punched him in side of the head. And then what I didn't do was stick around to continue hitting him- I ran away.

When guns and bombs give weight to a "moral" argument, words stop meaning much.

Governments learned that and then refused to learn anything else.

"When you fire that first shot, no matter how right you feel, you have no idea whose going to die! You don’t know whose children are going to scream and burn! How much blood will spill until everybody does what they were always going to have to do from the beginning– SIT DOWN AND TALK."

I think you just broke my brain, your attention to detail is absolutely phucking phenomenonal.

Like, just wow.
