Body language

why is it “learn to be aware of the message you send” instead of “learn to be aware of the message others are sending you, so if you’re making them afraid or uncomfortable you can try to not do that”?

wait i forgot it couldn’t pOSSibly be anyone’s fault other than the person with the “negative” body language

Basically, if I do all these things I will look like creepy Lincoln from the hall of presidents at disney. Straight back, stiff hands, CREEPY EYES.

“Remain constantly vigilant in an uncomfortable pose assumed specifically to convince others that you are trustworthy. This makes you look relaxed and honest.”

The way I sit has a lot more to do with my back problems and general autistic fidgeting than anything else. I’ve had teachers and bosses get pissy about it but fuck you if you think your prescriptive body language shite is worth more than me not being in pain.

I’m sorry but that “proper amount of eye contact” thing is never going to happen.

In Focus: Protests Spread Across Brazil

Starting late last week, with several small protests denouncing a hike in public transport fares, demonstrations flared up yesterday, encompassing larger public anger at poor public services, police violence and government corruption. More than 200,000 took to the streets of Brazil’s biggest cities yesterday, voicing frustration with the billions of dollars set aside for upcoming sports events like the World Cup and the 2014 Olympics, despite crushing levels of poverty in some places, and underfunded public education, health, security and transportation. Though the majority of the protests were peaceful, a few violent demonstrations were broken up by police in Rio de Janeiro.

“

Holding on to transphobic cultural values while developing a fondness for particular trans women who you can try to fit into your curated cultural spaces is not only disingenuous, it’s actually unsafe for the trans women who you are inviting in.

When you tell someone a space is theirs, you better mean it!

Y'all Better Stop With Your Violent Queer Parties

Tue, 18 Jun 2013 14:22:39 -0700

thespiritwas:

I want queer dance parties who take queer dollars to cut this shit out. now. even better retroactively with bountiful reparations given to all of us who’ve experienced this kind of violence.

I want them to be accountable to the people they are supposedly welcoming, to change their practices and principles and understand the kind of power over people who are navigating multiple forms of oppression and violence every day. I want them to come up with principles around holding relationships that they don’t understand because of their privilege and holding lives and experiences that they have benefited from but do not actually know. My most recent experience was this weekend. On Friday night my partner and I went to “SECRET POP UP” Brooklyn Queer dance party at Cubana Social and unsurprisingly experienced multiple levels of oppression and violence throughout our time there.

Click here to support Lawyer Expenses to Fight Cathy Brennan! by Phylicia Sampson

Thanks for visiting my funding page!

I’m a Baltimore City native currently residing in Baltimore County at the moment. I’m a well-read, theory-analyzing enthusiast, & intersectional black feminist academic preparing to defend myself against Cathy Brennan who filed criminal charges against me on April 6th, 2013 for “violation of peace order terms.” Being that I just graduated and work less than 21 hours per week, I need a little help with defense lawyer expenses.

Here’s the background information:

January 1, 2013—
Cathy Brennan filed a peace order against me on the terms of internet harassment. After I was summoned to court and the peace order was issued (which stated I was no longer able to directly contact Brennan via any outlet until June 9th), Brennan contacted a community, internet-based news outlet to further draw attention to the peace order issue. The article was published with a one-sided point of view (not including all the facts or Brennan’s extensive history of targeting transgender women and their allies), in which Brennan capitalized on the opportunity to produce libelous sources. Such sources have given her many opportunities to label me as a “violent queer” to the public as well as on the internet.

March 21, 2013—
Received a direct notification from Brennan stating “see you in court” after posting a tweet linking an article about the danger of payday loan lenders.

April 27, 2013—
Brennan directly contacts me through Twitter a total of 19 times from 3:26pm to 4:37pm, responding to various tweets I posted. All notifications occurring within an average of every 3 minutes.

For those who are unaware of the abusive pathology of Cathy Brennan can visit this rational wiki webpage. Sorry for not providing a more neutral source about Brennan, but this most accurately describes her pathological abusiveness on the internet.

Where will these funds specifically go towards?—
This guy here.

I was referred to him by someone I trust, however he has a 75 dollar consultation fee right off the bat, and a retainer fee that he hasn’t yet shared with me until he hears all the facts. However, he has shared with me that his services are $350 an hour.

I am not exactly sure how much I should be asking for at this moment, which is why I am starting off small with hopes this foolishness doesn’t go on longer than 2 days.

He’s located in Rockville, MD which is about an hour train ride from me since I don’t have a car. Transportation expenses (MARC Train & DC Metro fares) will also be covered.

Please help me win this battle against Cathy Brennan, and really for anyone that has been personally victimized by her on and off the internet. Please help me win this battle for every person that she has publicly outed, and every every individual that she has legally manipulated.

Any small donation will help. If you can’t donate, don’t be afraid to circulate this webpage to anyone you think may be interested in contributing. I don’t have any fancy talents, HOWEVER I do own a book collection that would make a feminist very jealous. I will be providing copies of feminist related reading material for individuals with “star” donations.

Peace,
P

Please help spread the word. Phylicia is a friend and an outstanding person all around and does not deserve the treatment she’s getting.

No, I’m just saying this kind of service is much more useful than joining the military.

Man With BAC of 0.00 Arrested and Charged With DUI

Jessie Thorton, a 61-year-old retiree, was arrested and charged with DUI in Arizona despite having a blood alcohol level of 0.00. The reason the arresting officer gave to Thorton: “I can tell you’re driving drunk by the look in your eyes.”

Who else thinks it had more to do with the color of his skin than the look in his eyes?

We need to do something about these roving bands of criminals dressed in blue uniforms.

US Social Security Administration Changes Policy on Changing Gender

ryansallans:

No longer will the Social Security Administration require surgery to change a person’s gender within their database.

Following guidelines put forward by both the federal government for passport changes, and many States’ DMV, individuals can have their gender changed by sending a letter from their medical provider (a sample is shown within the following link) https://secure.ssa.gov/poms.nsf/lnx/0110212200

Huge news.

GUYS!
