Stop Being Awful!Today, I saw a petition to stop an influential "pick-up-artist" who wrote in favour of legalising rape (and also wrote a guide to what makes a good rape scene that he can get off to in movies) from holding meetups with his followers. I saw a video of a "prank" where someone swapped the labels on vegetarian and non-vegetarian food at a buffet restaurant as example of how to "entertain yourself... at the expense of vegetarians", and the abysmal comments that followed including telling people that objected that they just needed to "get fucked" to lighten up. And I read about the fuss and derision that came about because Susan Sarandon dared to show a bit of cleavage, at the age of 69, at an awards ceremony in which she had a nomination. It made me so sad to think of her getting all excited as she fancied up for a happy event celebrating her talent, just to be publicly lambasted for her appearance. There's a lot of good beautiful stuff out there but sometimes, the world makes me so sad and angry. GROW! THE HELL! UP! STOP! BEING! AWFUL! AND BE BETTER PEOPLE!!! EDIT: After writing this, I decided I wanted to try to do something good so I'm donating £1 from each sale of my Mother's Day cards to Women's Aid. |
