This whole Angelina Jolie thing just shows how all these bullshit “Breast Cancer Awareness” campaigns have fuck all to do with preventing cancer, and everything to do with preventing mastectomies.
I accidentally the patriarchy. It was delicious.
RSSYou mean the generation that paid three times as much for college to enter a job market with triple the unemployment isn’t interested in purchasing the assets of the generation who just blew an enormous housing bubble and kept it from popping through quantitative easing and out-and-out federal support? Curious.

The Cheapest Generation
Why Millennials arent buying cars or houses, and what that means for the economyBECAUSE WE HAVE NO MONEY!
How about about calling us cheap, you out-of-touch “old” people do this:
- Hire us and PAY LIVING WAGES. Hard to afford a house or a new car if your entry-level job is now an unpaid internship, eh?
- Stop making college cost 3x more than it did a generation ago. If we are spending $500/mo to pay back student loans WE DONT HAVE MONEY TO SPEND ON CARS WITH GAS COSTING ~$4 A TANK.
Are were cheap if we’re just damn poor? JESUS. This shit is just lazy!
men should take advantage of the lack of dress code rules set for guys and wear mini skirts and tank tops to school every day

Black revolutionaries do not drop from the moon. We are created by our conditions. Shaped by our oppression.

The food movement has been slow to recognise the fact that worker rights and working conditions should be a key part of any discussion about the ethics of food. Reforms to the food system need to incorporate workers and their welfare, not just better farming practices, more humane treatment of animals, and other measures focusing on food as an end product. Food is also a process, and the people involved in that process have a right to fair treatment, something they don’t have currently. The continued marginalisation of farmworkers and the focus on other issues in the food movement speaks poorly of the movement overall, and reveals some telling attitudes about labour, race, and entitlement.
