Take action against mandatory anti-choice...
whatfreshhellisthis:
I just sent (another) email to my MP calling on them to oppose new restrictions to abortion access if they are debated at the at Report Stage of the Health and Social Care Bill on 6-7th September.
If you’re from the UK please take the time to do the same. All you have to do is visit this site and put in your postcode, there is a model letter that you can edit and the...

yourfandomsucks:
Tumblr is not very good about organizing itself or taking action. Most people on tumblr will happily reblog something, but totally avoid actually going out of their way to get things done.
Most recently, Tumblr has destroyed our messaging system, told us that our conversations were not askbox worthy, taken away our sidebars, and yesterday, once again attempted to take...

Sunday Aug 28 2011
If anyone needs proof that Irish actress Katie McGrath’s star is on the rise then they only have to look at the company the Wicklow beauty has kept in recent times.
Drinking pints with Sin City star Clive Owen, partying with Madonna at her 52nd birthday party and being chatted up by Roger Moore — “a roguishly charming man, but in a lovely way”...

kinsey-val-kyrie:
Doctor Who has been and probably is, in this episode, a crock of sexist bullshit. THAT DOES NOT MEAN YOU HAVE TO HATE IT.
Recognizing this shit in every day life is a huge step, and it’s an important one. Notice it. You don’t have to rant about it, because your anger does not have to be proportionate to your understanding of society.
But I swear to god, don’t go around saying...
