“He also asked about us. He wanted to know who we were, what we did, and how we lived as couples and families. When it came out that Natalie and I were about to become Jewish clergy, he mentioned that his on-staff chaplain was not Jewish, but he wrote down the name and number of a local Reform rabbi who we might want to talk to. Admittedly, we did not use the number. So the next evening, that rabbi called us in our hotel room. He said Dr. Tiller had called the synagogue, let them know we were in town, and said he suspected we weren’t in a place where we could make the first move. He invited us to Passover Seder at his home two nights later, and said we could decide anytime up to dessert being served that we wanted to show up, and that he would understand if we wanted to keep to ourselves. All because Dr. Tiller cared enough to make sure someone was reaching out to us.”

#146: You Know You're Asexual When...
Reading a romance novel:
Other girls: God! I can’t wait to experience this!
Me: God! Do I have to experience this?
asexuality: “other girls” vs. “me” memes transformed into a lifestyle
Either you want to fuck Fabio or you’re asexual
Only two options available
Holy shit I’m asexual and never knew it.
I’m having issues with growling in public
I try to hide my dragonyess in real life and even on the internet in most cases
But seriously, growling is my instinctual reaction to things that annoy me and I’ll do it without thinking
(I also bit someone once, but thats a different story)
I growled at my personal trainer today. I’m just having problems with my headmate, Tony The Tiger.
Hold the phone
James Lipton is 85 years old?
I knew he was definitely old and had been around for a long time (his book An Exaltation of Larks, about names for groups of animals, was written in the 60s), but
EIGHTY-FIVE!
He is less than a year younger than my (frail, Alzheimer’s-ridden, in a retirement home) grandmother, and almost four years older than my grandfather
This post brought to you by clicking around ONTD and reading a bunch of old posts in the middle of the night/early morning
He’s my dad’s age.

Ladies, I’ve been looking in on you a lot lately. And I’ve been doing that because some Serious Shit has gone down in this fanbase and we all know what I’m talking about. I don’t need to rehash it, it makes me grumpy.
I wanna take this opportunity to talk to you. I see you at shows and on Tumblr…
HI IT'S MY BIRTHDAY
HAPPY BIRTHDAY
“Have you seen most of the plus-size sections out there? It’s horrifying. Whoever’s designing for plus-size doesn’t get it. The entire garment needs to be reconceived. You can’t just take a size 8 and make it larger. In my travels, I’ve been an advocate for larger women. I’ve been talking to designers, but only a half-dozen make an effort. Most say, ‘I don’t want a woman who’s a size 10 or 11 wearing my clothes.’ Well, shame on you! It’s not realistic. We need to address real women with real needs.”

“
In the situation that we have in Syria, you cannot go to a hospital, because if you do, they either amputate the limb that you are suffering from or they take you to prison.
I was detained twice and what we saw is that some of those in prison are left to have their wounds rot. Their injuries rotted and they were not taken to hospital. Some died next to me, while others were urinating blood from the internal bleeding they were suffering from.
And no organizations or doctors or MSF are allowed to go into prison. The field hospital [is normally in someone’s house, moving from one house to another]. There were no ambulances; any ambulance was targeted and shot at. And the doctors who are brave enough are also watched or arrested, or they rape his wife in order to prevent him from taking any action. Or they place them under house arrest.
” —A 29-year-old male patient from Syria.
While Doctors Without Borders/Médecins Sans Frontières (MSF) has been unable to work directly in Syria, we have collected testimonies from wounded patients treated outside the country and from doctors inside Syria.
The testimonies, which come from people hailing from various parts of the country, point to a coordinated crackdown on the provision of urgent medical care for people wounded in the ongoing violence.

sometimesifindstuffinteresting replied to your post: I’m curious! Do you want children?
OMG JAWOLLY (THAT’S MY NAME FOR YOU TWO) BABIES WOULD BE THE CUTEST THING EVER, THEY WOULD OVERTAKE JUDE IN CUTENESS.
WHAT nothing could overtake Jude
But ty! I have my hopes for a little chubbo with big cheeks personally
I’ve seen Jude in meltdown mode, which knocks a few cuteness points off, but he’s still adorbs! He’s not a baby anymore, he’s a little person now so hopefully someone I know (hint hint) will have some adorbs bbs soon.
I also totally feel you on the “get pregnant” urges. They drive me nuts.
And big ol’ baby cheeks are the best ever.
Reblog if you want your followers to ask you anything they're curious about.
I know this is stupid, but in the last year I've gained almost 30lbs and I hate my waist line and arms now
And why has none of this weight gone to my boobs jw?
Story of my life. My cup size is SMALLER at my highest weight than it is when I’m at a healthier weight. Wtf boobs?

Adolf Hitler, 1939 (via lizdexia)
(If this is actually a Hitler quote, I am loving this. Just goes to show you really can’t judge someone, even though we all believe we can. Even Hitler (our apparent epitome of evil) said this, was a vegetarian, loved animals, loved art. Fan-frickin’-tastic.)

Someone actually said this you guys.
(via lizdexia)
Oh my god this is the best thing that’s ever happened
You really can’t judge people who commit genocide because you gleamed from a blog post that maybe all they wanted was someone to cuddle

wow really

Not only is this an actual real Hitler quote, but it just goes to show that wehfrhsdfdvfdjfv ehrkehywfjuerhgfrvg A BLOO BLOO BLOO you’re an abortion

It’s a Marilyn Monroe quote, guys.

My mom, that crazy anti-Semitic guy, and myself on another account BUT still when I start losing followers I don’t really know who they are. Like unless I have a blowout with a specific person and then see that I have one less follower, I really have no idea who’s dropping me and why. And for this…
I will never unfollow you! You are stuck with me until you leave tumblr.

I believe I’ve seen a comprehensive description of consent once before. Figured I’d contribute as it’s a subject that bears repeating.
Consent is:
