Celery, an effigy.

I’m Ezra Miller, and I’m here with the One Billion Rising action in Times Square, joining many people all across the planet in a hope to end the rape culture. One in three women in the world will experience domestic violence or rape within the course of their lifetime. To me, I grew up in a household of women and I feel that all revolutionary causes should start with addressing misogyny


"It’s so embedded, we don’t even realize when were looking at it, half the time. Brazilians. Hollywoods. Round, high plastic tits. Acrylic nails that make it impossible to do up a shoe buckle, or type. MTV full of crotches and tits. Anal sex being an assumed part of every woman’s repertoire. Posters for makeup, or TV shows, that show women glassy-eyed, open-mouthed, and ready for a faceful of come. Knickers being replaced by thongs. High, high heels that aren’t really made for walking - just lying back and being fucked in. Lindsay Lohan’s prejail “sex” shoot. If 12 percent of the Internet is pornography - that’s 4.2 million websites, 28,000 people looking at porn per second - then that means that 12 percent of the images of women on the Internet are of them either on all fours, rammed into some highly unhygienic PVC, or being forced around outsized male genitalia, as if their sundry openings were some manner of tube bandage."

Caitlin Moran, “How To Be a Woman,” on porn culture (via foulmouthedliberty)

I could reblog this purely for the way she writes

So, yeah, uh, no. When a performer stands on stage and asserts that it would be funny if a female audience member were gang raped, and that audience member is so uncomfortable that she has to flee the theater, that would not be rape culture “satire.” That would be actual rape culture. Like, a culture in which rape is tolerated and embraced. The definition of rape culture.

This is totally fucking disgusting and totally validates how I’ve ALWAYS felt really squicked out by Daniel Tosh.

Man, it really sucks I used to think he was coming from a place of intelligent satire, right around the time of his first album when he wasn’t making awful rape jokes, but it’s more clear now that he’s just a lazy asshole who thinks he can get laughs solely off the shock value of his material. Fucking gross

Yep, officially 100% done with Daniel Tosh. Gross.

So that’s today’s combination of “utterly disgusting” and “absolutely petrifying.” You’re welcome, followers. I suggest everyone click the link and read what he said, because that’s just…hideous. Only a certified rape culture would even dream of defending statements like that by sticking a ‘satire’ label on it.
