You’re Mine, You’re Mine, I’m Yours

“Grace soon discovered music, particularly that of the 1980s metal bands that blurred gender lines with the help of lipstick and hairspray. Later, she discovered Green Day and Nirvana, gateways to her love of punk. It seems surprising, I say, that she should have been drawn to a genre known for its machismo. “For me, the attitude seemed more about fighting back, and I thought, ‘OK, well, if I’m going to get beaten up, at least I’ll get a couple of punches in.’ There was also the feeling that punk rock was a place for misfits and freaks, and those were the kids I associated with. The nihilism was attractive, too. When there’s a punk band singing ‘No future’ to you, you feel like, ‘Yeah, no future. I’m never making it out of this place alive.’””

@ everyone who went through a period of having no friends, who ate alone, who had a point in their life where they were too embarrassed to tell their parents they had no one to play with after school: I love you. I know it hurts and I know it’s hard but it’s not your fault. Things will grow and change. You will find people who you click with and they will love you too. You deserve positive friendship relationships just like anyone else. And if you’re still going through this phase, you’re strong, and things will change for you too. You are not alone, there are people experiencing the same thing you are, find them, you deserve positivity and companionship. Keep your head up.

Remember all those promo pics that made it look like Mulder and Scully were going to the prom?
I’m coming up short on THE prom promo pics, but I’ve always felt they were part of a larger series, including (but not limited to):
fbi engagement photos
fbi pregnancy announcement
fbi apocalypse survivors?
and, last but not least, fbi indie album cover.
fbi homecoming
fbi slavic 80s popstars
fbi weird theater kids
fbi young adult novel
fbi Christmas card
I think this is one of the aforementioned FBI prom photos
but let’s not forget the FBI Sears portrait
FBI du Soleil
FBI 1980′s cigarette ad
FBI one hit wonder 90′s pop duo

men: *commit over 90% of violence to women and to themselves*
women: *create shelters to protect themselves from male violence*
men: OMG that is NOT FAIR! There are no shelters for us! You have to let men in to your shelters!
women: Create your own shelters? Women need to be protected from men, and we don't know who we can trust, so our shelters need to remain women only spaces.
men: Nononono, see, you have to do free labor for us and solve the problems we create for ourselves. You are not allowed to focus on the problems we created for you until you solve the problems we created for ourselves first.
men: It's only equality if women put us before themselves!
