Men are so full of themselves, you focus on YOU and leave the rest of us out of your narcissism.

we're unironically worse off now than during the "eyeliner sharp enough to kill a man!!" phase of feminism bc at least back then you could make jokes about killing men

good luck to wifebeater johnny depp on his next trial for assault in two months

So Amber lost and I just want to say to all women out there that have been abused I believe you. I believe Amber and I believe you. Sometimes good things happen to bad people and that's what has happened today. I'm sorry for the outcome but try not to let it get you down, try not to beat yourselves up. Try and do something loving for yourselves today. We still have each other.

HOW the evidence was all on her side???

Don’t underestimate the court of public opinion, the social pressure was on

I’m sick to my stomach. The repercussions of this are terrifying. I think I’m done with social media for today. When climate change finally boils us all alive we’ll deserve it. Mankind was a mistake.

you can have pictures but it’s not enough you can have corroborating witnesses but it isn’t enough you can have texts where he fantasizes about murdering and raping you but it isn’t enough you can have him admitting he was controlling and angry and violent but it isn’t enough. this is going to get people killed

is anyone going to talk about the amount of times johnny depp has lied on the stand? when he claimed amber gave him a black eye but there's photos of him with the same marks on his eyes from a date before the time he alleges that amber gave him a black eye. when that picture was shown in court he then claimed that the marks were due to the angle of the light despite saying they were from a black eye on the photo his team showed. he also claimed a text message that HIS TEAM produced is fake or that someone must have taken his phone and sent the text which is obviously ridiculous but even more so because the writing style is so clearly his. i also haven't forgotten that on the stand he said he has never been an alcoholic. insanity.

I love calling Johnny Depp a wifebeater! What’s he gonna do? Sue me and lose?

at the beginning of the amber vs depp thing i remember seeing a thread of someone while on amber’s side started off their thread with “i’m suspicious of white women too” and like good god if you find yourself with that feeling in a situation where a white woman has stated her white husband abused her you have a serious misogyny problem you NEED to address right fucking now

Pretty depressing that we live in a world where far more people are willing to believe that a 24 year old woman got married to a man 25 years her senior, all so, over the course of 7 years. she could meticulously gather fake evidence of abuse (including diary entries, corroborating texts and photos), convince a bunch of witnesses to lie under oath and goad her then husband into admitting to headbutting her on tape in an elaborate Gone Girl scenario to… *checks notes* write one line in an op ed, than it is for people to believe a rich powerful man with a documented history of substance abuse and violent outbursts hit his wife.

I intentionally go out of my way to read moronic things just so I can get mad about them. I have a problem, I’m aware of it. I’ll quit someday but not today. 

the idea that food waste is the product of thoughtless consumers rather than corporate greed is really insidious

So we’ve all seen this phenomenon where female they/thems very often still perform femininity—wearing full faces of makeup, etc—and I was thinking about how they must think identifying as nonbinary makes wearing makeup a “subversive” act (in their minds, not in reality, obviously). Because if they were “still women”, then wearing makeup would be accepting the oppressive expectations set upon them, but they still want to wear makeup because they’ve been socially conditioned to realize it gains them approval and attention. So instead of ditching the makeup and facing the discomfort of being a woman in the world who does not perform for male approval, they do a little mental hop-skip and suddenly they’re not a woman, so they’re free to keep doing all the stereotypical feminine things except now they’re being “nonconforming”. Even though the material reality has not changed, their guilt at being a woman who just accepts her lot in life is assuaged.
