Mad Girl's Love Song

After being inspired by the generosity of a few Echelon and because I love all your pretty little faces, I have decided to give 2 people the opportunity to pick something(s) they would like from the Mars Store (up to $30 each). Open to Echelon worldwide. 

Pretty basic rules:

Follow me. You can unfollow after the winners are chosen (but I hope you’ll stick around because I love interacting with all of you). I also follow back.

You can re-blog this as many times as you want and likes WILL count, but the winners will be chosen at random. 

Winners will be chosen on Monday, July 16th at 12pm CST. (Don’t worry about “being here” when the winners are chosen. I will message you and you have 48 hours to respond.) Make sure to have your ask box open so I can contact you if you win. I will choose another winner if you don’t respond within 48 hours.

Winners should let me know what they want, and then I will get shipping information. 

19 years old.

Died from a Suicide attempt that left her brain dead. Her parents made the hardest decision of their lives by turning off her life support.

She had a Tumblr account with over 900 posts sharing her emotional turmoil, dealings with depression, loneliness & thoughts about her wanting to take her own life.

The only response she got, was insensitive assholes, like the majority of people on Tumblr, encouraging her to do it. She was bullied consistently. Olivia attempted to kill herself every year in May 1st since 2008.

In May 2012, her short life came to an end.

I know most people can’t tolerate posts like Olivia’s, whom find it attention seeking. My point to you people is…

EXACTLY!!

Of course it’s attention seeking what else it?! People share that part of themselves over the Internet because they obviously feel they can’t talk to anyone they know nor do they think anyone would care.

All I want is for people to cut out the bullying & talk to people like Olivia. A conversation to someone in desperation could save their life.

If people can’t say something nice, don’t say anything at all.

You never know… What you say could be used to decide whether they live or die.

Even if youre a b&w blog, reblog this. 

whatever type of blog you are just reblog

if you dont reblog this youre just heartless, this is a tragedy that needs to end.

this needs to stop god kids are heartless these days, why egg some on to kill themselves 

May 1st is my birthday. I always thought people on tumblr were so much better than those on Facebook. I thought they valued life, and would do anything to help someone in need. Stranger or best friend. Everyone reblogs the text saying “Reblog if you really care about you’re followers.” and yet, everyone continues to let this happen. If you do nothing to prevent these tragedies, you can unfollow me now. Right this instant.  

this earth is just fucked. bless her souI, shes in heaven now. and with god Iooking after her, she is in better hands then any other doctor on earth. everything just one another, its so simpIe! 

A lot of people, and myself included, were aware of what sex was long before we were 13 (which was her age when she made this video if you didn’t know), but i remained ignorant to slut shaming, misogyny and rape culture for a long time. 

Girls are being told they’re too fat, too skinny, flat-chested, prudish, promiscuous etc. sometimes long before puberty. Girls are harassed, even assaulted, sometimes long before puberty. And for girls of colour, this is a pressing issue from BIRTH. There is no buffer zone of innocence there. Why should they not speak out?

so let me lay this down as clearly as possible:

If you, chazzthegamr, think this gif set is too much knowledge for someone so young, you obviously have a problem with a girl-child being in the know about the dangers and oppression that she herself faces.

Maybe that is cause you would like her to remain ignorant because maybe you just want your girls unable to tackle these situations as they arise and you don’t like them asserting themselves on these matters.

Which would pretty much mean that you’re a rapey asshole who’d rather see girls hurt and scared than able to defend their own fucking selves because nobody else is willing to step up. Certainly not YOU, the Internet police of Credibility.

And that would just make you a horrible, useless waste of space and resources who will go after easy targets at the slightest chance of asserting your own power and privilege.

Cause make no mistake, I fucking see you questioning this girl’s credentials for speaking out on the subject of her OWN DAMN LIFE rather than taking on the rape culture that made this message necessary in the first place.
