Macy's used "Seasons of Love" from Rent
In a commercial to hock jewelry along with a picture of an het-cis couple getting married complete with a skinny blonde white woman in a white dress being held by a Ken Doll in a tuxedo.
I think I’m gonna be sick.
FUCK YOU, MACY’S. Just FUCK YOU.
Fuck you for using a song from a play about the experiences of queer people, in a time when queer people are STILL being denied marriage...

ur doin it wrong.
I mean, no, sorry, it’s early and I can’t not be unnecessarily sarcastic when I wake up before at least eleven, but really, this whole “LABELS ARE FOR SOUP CANS” or whatever is not where I meant for that to go.

Read the entire article on AngryAsianMan: The guy has a pretty amazing story. It’s awesome too see that he’s used his own misfortune to turn things around and help folks within the Chinese American community, where there seems to be no shortage of swindlers and their victims. Am I the only one who thinks Eddie Zhao’s story would make a fantastic movie or TV series?

Yes, we had a dog named Porky (or more properly Porky Pig). DO NOT JUDGE ME YOU JUDGEMENTAL TUMBLR PEOPLE YOU. I WAS SIX AND I DIDN’T GET TO PICK THE NAME.
Though if I were going to be a plus sized porn star (which I would be), then it wouldn’t be the worst name in the world.
This is why I could...

A self-described “rule follower” went through an airport pornoscanner wearing a panty-liner (she was menstruating). Because the hygienic item obscured the screener’s view of her vagina vulva, she was made to endure a humiliating fondling, “so invasive that I was left crying and dealing with memories that I thought had been dealt with years ago of prior sexual...

I was gonna reblog (for commentary) this post about abortion with a little “story” about a baby talking to it’s mother from in-utero but I don’t want to spread around and potentially trigger anyone with the absolutely graphic picture of what is supposed to be an aborted fetus.
Given what I can observe from the picture, I imagine that the fetus in question was probably not...

By Sarah Boseley
What is happening for women in Rwanda is little short of revolutionary. Women occupy some of the most important government ministries and make up 56% of the country’s parliamentarians, including the speaker.
Rwanda’s women express astonishment at Britain’s low female representation. By law in their country they must have at least 30% of the seats in...

Wake up, check Tumblr and find you’ve been reblogged and called a “butthurt faggot”. Ahh, the smell of defensive privilege in the morning. It smells like…patriarchy.
It also smells like really unimaginative patriarchy. I mean, damn, really that’s the best in their arsenal of insults? “Butthurt faggot”. I LOL’ed because all I can hear is:...
