In 2015, the Harvard debate team lost to 3 prison inmates. The maximum security prison where the men were incarcerated after being convicted for violent crimes has a debate program that holds its members to the same standards as Ivy League competitors. Their topic was whether children of undocumented immigrants should be allowed to attend public schools, and the inmates won fair and square against the reigning national champions. Source
Been feeling this way for a long time, and just recently I have started to smack myself for falling prey to this.
Here’s the thing: everything listed there are social forms of validation glamourised by mainstream media, literature, culture and of course social media.
Social forms of validation.
You, person reading this, do not exist because society exists; you exist because of yourself. Remember that the concept of society is one of the most messed up concepts in human histories, and thus don’t let ‘them’ get to you. ‘Them’ could be your 'friends’ at school; ‘them’ could be the people on social media; ‘them’ could be the people around you. Whichever form 'them’ takes in your life, don’t let them get to you.
You exist without social forms of validation; you exist on your terms. You might be thinking “yeah but having friends feels nice”– check yourself. You have been conditioned to feel this way; conditioned to think if you’re not socially accepted you’re wrong; if you’re not conventional you’re wrong; if you’re alone, if you prefer being along, you’re wrong.
You are not.
Break your conditioning; be whoever you want to be, because despite what people might tell you, you can be whoever you want to be, and you can be happy doing so.
In the 1800s, the infamous Robert Liston performed what was dubbed ‘the only operation in history with a 300% mortality rate.’ He rushed through a leg amputation and failed to save his patient (who died of gangrene), then cut off the fingers of his assistant (who also died of gangrene), and slashed through the coat of a surgical spectator who was so terrified his vitals had been cut that he dropped dead from fright.

and you thought you were a screw up.
Though not directly related to Pakistan, the content of this article is relevant to how significant female participation in the public space is; to how many dimensions there are to women’s right… how women’s rights and representation is legitimately important not just for women but for everyone.
It may help everyone understand how important it is to support women’s presence in the public space with campaigns such as #WhyLoiter and #GirlsAtDhabas.
People do.
okay today i learned that apparently the penis has a say in whether or not a child will be a boy or a girl
female sperm swims slower than male sperm, but the males can’t swim for as long as the females. this means that a long penis will be closer to the egg when releasing the sperm, and there will be a higher chance for the child to be a boy.
so in conclusion
if you have a lot of sons you have a big dick

”The U.S. Treasury hasn’t changed the faces on the bills since 1929, when Andrew Jackson elbowed out Grover Cleveland on the $20. Why, you may be asking yourself, did they pick Jackson? And why was Grover Cleveland there to begin with? Nobody seems to know.”
“”Women on 20s” picked Jackson to depose mainly because of his horrific history with Native Americans, although there’s also the rather blissful note that Jackson disapproved of paper currency.“
“The Native American issue looms large when it comes to replacing Jackson, who sent the Cherokee Nation on the Trail of Tears. Lately, [Women on 20s] have decided that when they announce their three top vote-getters and ask people to pick a winner, they’re going to add a fourth option: Wilma Mankiller, the first female chief of the Cherokee Nation. (“People felt it would be poetic justice.”)
If I could add a nominee it might be Angelina Grimke, the great abolitionist orator. Or Sybil Ludington, who rode through New York one night in 1777 warning her countrymen the British were coming. (Just like Paul Revere, except Sybil was 16, and rode twice as far.) Or Margaret Brent, who used her business acumen to save the colony of Maryland from being destroyed by mercenary soldiers in 1647.
Or maybe Elizabeth Jennings, the black New Yorker who sued the trolley company that tossed her off a whites-only car in 1854 — a court action that led to the desegregation of mass transit in the city 100 years before Rosa Parks.
But then, of course, you don’t want to pass up Rosa Parks. There are thousands of possibilities. Nominate among yourselves.“
Men want us to kiss them with beards, suck their dicks and kiss their balls with pubes, hug them with hairy arm pits, intwine our legs with hairy thighs, but if women have one hair on our body that isn’t on our head it’s disgusting
