Every time I see another letter to the Boy Scouts where someone is sending back their medals, I feel like we are starting to mov in the right direction as a society. It is one think to not agree with something, but it’s something entirely different to actually do something about it.Hello,
Here is my own letter to the BSA. Thank you for providing a venue to express our feelings on this matter and to find support from other men who will not stand for this.

Back in March I decided I needed to break up with Tumblr. Here was my post at that time:
http://theunhipster.tumblr.com/post/18886051604/gross
Now, I think it may be time for a comeback. It makes me sad that seeing something would prevent me from being online, but honestly, it did.
Okay Tumblr, here’s your second chance…

“New Hampshire’s Tea Party-controlled House of Representatives passed a bill Wednesday that would mandate a 24-hour waiting period before an abortion and require doctors to tell women that abortion causes breast cancer.
The bill, sponsored by Rep. Jeanine Notter (R-Merrimack), was immediately condemned by Democratic leaders, who it would require false information to be spread by doctors to patients. There is no proven breast cancer link to abortion, according to the World Health Organization and the American Cancer Society.”
Rep. Jeanine Notter, as a woman you should be ashamed of yourself! This is an attack on all women and is absolutely disgusting. I hope these worthless fucks are voted out of office in the next election.

While just scrolling through my dash I saw 2 gifs of an animal dying on a fur farm in China. I honestly don’t even know what kind of animal it was. It is by far the most disturbing thing I have come across on Tumblr. In the past I have seen pictures of animals that have been abused, but they always wind up having a happy ending. This was in no way the same thing. I don’t think I can even really explain how I feel right now.

Quote reblogged from brkfstschmrkfstIt’s not your tax money that pays for it. I’m not even gonna get into your roundabout argument about how somehow money is taken out of your own pocket to pay for Georgetown’s private insurance plan whose contraception coverage would ultimately bring insurance rates down. I’m not gonna get into that. And I’m not gonna get into the Catholic Church cause you don’t even pay taxes at all so. I’m just saying, to the people who are upset about the hard earned tax money going to things they don’t like. Welcome to the fucking club. Everyone, everyone pays for shit they don’t want to all the time. You know what? Reimburse me for the Iraq War and oil subsidies and guess what then? Diaphragms are on me.

On a motion to table (i.e. shelve) S.1813, a NO vote means those who wished to see this legislation proceed.
(The good guys voted YES to burying this legislation in the garbage heap of history where it belongs.)
The below listed Senators — wholly owned subsidiaries of Big Insurance every one — voted today on a bill that would allow Your Employer to deny YOU insurance for ANY medical service or prescription to which they had a moral objection.
Note that this would not only apply to women and the Catholic Church’s “moral objection” to sex, but would also apply to men and children, and whatever an employer’s religious fetishes were. If for example, your employer had a “moral objection” to Obesity Caused by High Fat Diets, they could prevent you from receiving insurance coverage for cholesterol-reducing Rx drugs.
Reminder: We The People pay both hefty salaries and Cadillac benefits — including coverage for Birth Control — to these traitorous cretins:

Quote reblogged from Lauren ElizabitsI’m not going to settle for a country where a few people do really well, and everyone else is struggling to get by.
President Obama speaking to UAW (via brooklynmutt)
It’s weird to live in a country where our President can say this and the people running against him act like it’s a rebellious statement.
We now live in a country where if you’re not FOR something, you have to be AGAINST it, and it’s gotten so out of control that we’ve got a guy running for President who’s come out against EDUCATION. What in the WHAT is happening, and how do we fix it?

I wonder if ABC will ever have a same-sex season of The Bachelor/Bachelorette? I think they should. Maybe the show wouldn’t suck so bad.
