Let’s remember, Jesus was a Jewish man of color, born homeless to an unwed teenager, who spent his formative years as an illegal immigrant before returning to his home country to hang out with twelve men, prostitutes, and socially untouchable tax collectors while he taught a radical social doctrine of equality, love, and forgiveness that included paying taxes, free healthcare, and the sharing of resources within a community.
The federal government cannot disparage marriages recognized by the states, says the Court.
WHOA.
There is a concept called body autonomy. Its generally considered a human right. Bodily autonomy means a person has control over who or what uses their body, for what, and for how long. Its why you can’t be forced to donate blood, tissue, or organs. Even if you are dead. Even if you’d save or improve 20 lives. It’s why someone can’t touch you, have sex with you, or use your body in any way without your continuous consent.
A fetus is using someone’s body parts. Therefore under bodily autonomy, it is there by permission, not by right. It needs a persons continuous consent. If they deny and withdraw their consent, the pregnant person has the right to remove them from that moment. A fetus is equal in this regard because if I need someone else’s body parts to live, they can also legally deny me their use.
By saying a fetus has a right to someone’s body parts until it’s born, despite the pregnant person’s wishes, you are doing two things.
1. Granting a fetus more rights to other people’s bodies than any born person.
2. Awarding a pregnant person less rights to their body than a corpse.

I’m going to like every gif set on tumblr related to this scene and you can’t stop me.
What’s a reasonable response to someone whose counter to arguments for the need to better access to contraception is to “just not have sex”?
I try not to argue with stupid people, but if I had to give a reasonable response to someone that ignorant, it would go something like this:
You can’t...
This episode of Teen Wolf brought to you by T. Pose’s eyebrow raise.
I know you’re all surprised when I’d say I’d read it.

About a decade ago, I attended Nibmus 2003 — one of the first Harry Potter conventions. I got attendees to sign their LJ usernames to a piece of bristle board so I could make a list to post on LJ later. I just found that piece of bristle board.
As a friend of mine pointed out, this is a piece of fandom history. MsScribe left a kiss mark. Cassandra Clare signed some old version of her username (epicyclical). Aja’s on this. And lots of other people.
I have no idea what to do with this. I’d just recycle it, but I figure that there’s got to be someone out there who wants it/knows someone who could maybe auction it off for charity? IDK. Thoughts? Ideas? Anyone actually want this?
oh my god. *covers face with hands* IT IS ALWAYS 2003. (p.s. apparently “msscribe” is a popular tumblr tag. FANDOM.)
Oh my god is right. Reading those names is like a gut punch straight in the feels. There’s so much history there, so many relationships, some still active, some lost to time. It’s fandom history and personal history, all in one image.
cripes i know a fuckload of people on this. i’m not there, though, i was brand new to hp fandom then.
Are you tired of having to comb through dozens of articles trying to figure out if DC Comics has done something cringeworthy today?
Bless this site.
