And with your head tilted back, the flesh of your skinny neck clings to the ridges in your esophogas, and I think of all the unromantic ways to tell you I want to cling to you like that, in the dark, my flesh in between the railroad ties of your spine, my fingers spread across all the puckers in your skin, my battered lungs playing trampoline against the tumbling of my...

“bruno, did you know that the greeks in morning would eat oranges? they were firm believers in fruit-curing fevers, and i agree see, they believed that an orange warms the stomach.”

– Michael Kimmel: Men, Masculinity, and the Rape Culture (via simeral)
Things like whiteness and class-privilege are normalized to the point that they’re assumed they couldn’t have a relationship to a person’s actions.

S.O.S
!
i was standing in a train station
when i realized that having
a lover isn’t the thing that
creates my happiness,
being content with doing my thing
makes me happy,
and a lover just adds to my happiness,
so with that said…..
yo universe!
i’m over here!
People say, ‘I’m going to sleep now,’ as if it were nothing. But it’s really a...

Ladies & Gentlemen, I give you, the 2012...
Michelle Bachmann: "Don’t misunderstand. I am not here bashing people who are homosexuals, who are lesbians, who are bisexual, who are transgender. We need to have profound compassion for people who are dealing with the very real issue of sexual dysfunction in their life and sexual identity disorders.” (2004)
Ron Paul: "The rate of AIDS infection is on the increase again. From the gay point of view, the reasons seem quite sensible. First, these men don't really see a reason to live past their fifties. They are not married, they have no children, and their lives are centered on new sexual partners... because sex is the center of their lives, they want it to be as pleasurable as possible, which means unprotected sex. Third, they enjoy the attention & pity that comes with being sick." (1995 in a newsletter)
Rick Perry: "I'm not ashamed to admit that I'm a Christian, but you don't need to be in the pew every Sunday to know there's something wrong in this country when gays can serve openly in the military but our kids can't openly celebrate Christmas or pray in school. " (2011 in a campaign ad)
Mitt Romney: "I should tell my story. I'm also unemployed." (2011 while speaking to unemployed people in Florida. Romney's net worth is over $200 million.)
Newt Gingrich: "She's not young enough or pretty enough to be the wife of the President. And besides, she has cancer." (1994, about his first wife)
Rick Santorum: "Is anyone saying same-sex couples can’t love each other? I love my children. I love my friends, my brother. Heck, I even love my mother-in-law. Should we call these relationships marriage, too?" (2008)
Michelle Bachmann: "Carbon dioxide is portrayed as harmful. But there isn't even one study that can be produced that shows that carbon dioxide is a harmful gas." (2009 during a debate)
Mitt Romney: "PETA is not happy that my dog likes fresh air." (2006, when questioned about driving 12 hours with his dog in a cage strapped to the top of his car)
