Still my #1 hero

i definitely got into a really long argument this weekend with a real adult human being about kanye west. they seemed to think there was something wrong with him. do not understand how this is a thing that anyone can think.

is der a rite way to do dis or??

i have to say this is 100% exactly what I feel about this show

britticisms:

A man on twitter is trying to discredit my experiences and my friends’ experiences of sexual assault on the dance floor because, “dance music has more veterans that go out for music every weekend. For other top 40 places it’s mainly about sex.” He also said, “Of course but if you are used to grinding chances are creeps will look for someone to grind.” I don’t quite know what he means, but it certainly sounds like he’s blaming the victims here. It’s funny how people think the world works like that. 

This is a list of things that have happened to me while out dancing: cornered without a way to escape, roofied, ass grabbed, breasts grabbed, kissed on neck, breasts & lips, hands underneath my shirt, hands DOWN MY PANTS, hands IN MY PANTIES. This is a list of where these things have happened: aliveOne, Smart Bar, Primary, Beauty Bar, Berlin, Empty Bottle, Lincoln Hall. These are all music-oriented places. Not Top 40 environments. Not “meat markets” as he said. This does not mean that we can not and should not go out. I am against this as it further polices my experiences. What I think both men AND women should do is listen when both men AND women talk about their experiences of assault. What is important to remember is that an insidious culture of violence and rape allows even spaces we deem “safe” to be potential dangers. It is not right and it is not fair. But we must recognize this so we can help CHANGE the culture and these environments as best as we can. 

britt is so great. and right. and great.

Libertine (UK)

There’s a new mag in town. Libertine Magazine: “For Interested Women”

Founder and editor Debbi Evans explains:

“to redefine the ‘women’s interest’ category. In addition to luxury lifestyle content we cover tech, science and business, and celebrate high achieving maverick women for the contents of their brains, not their beds. There is no fashion or beauty content in issue 1, unless you count a piece on the semiotics of handbags. There’s nothing like it, and we’re really excited (and relieved!) to have finally got it out there.”

I love everything about this.

SO COOL
