Today in Palo Alto, California, members of the Raging Grannies Action League said that men who want drugs such as Viagra to treat impotence should be required to have strict testing before receiving said drugs.
The Grannies applauded Ohio State Senator Nina Turner who has introduced a bill requiring that physicians take specific actions before prescribing Viagra and similar drugs, including giving a cardiac stress test and making a referral to a sex therapist for confirmation that the patient’s symptoms are not solely attributable to one or more psychological conditions.
The photo was taken of members of the Raging Granny VRB (Viagra Review Board) in response to moves by Republicans to limit women’s right to reproductive health. Members of the Review Board are all women who came of age before Roe v. Wade. From their headquarters in Palo Alto they announced that they are old enough to know what it was like to live before women’s reproductive rights became law of the land, and they will do all they can to make sure that the US does not return to that era.omg my heart

Hello Tumblr! Do you live in Wellington? What are you doing tomorrow night? If you wanted to you could come and see me speak at Pecha Kucha. I’m going to be talking about fat bodies (incl. mine) and fat blogs (incl. mine). Unfortunately, it’s weather dependent and what with this WEATHER BOMB I’m a little uncertain if it will be going ahead. I’ll update you here tomorrow though. Also, this is one of my slides. Just me, being fat in some trousers.
P.S. Thanks Stevie for helping me make my slides when I just thought I could use MS Paint.

- Woman: Can I have birth control?
- Government: No.
- Woman: I got pregnant because I didn't have birth control and I don't want the fetus. Can I have an abortion?
- Government: No.
- Woman: I gave birth to my child but since I wasn't expecting it, I can't afford daycare. Can I have help paying for it?

- Woman: Well, why can't I have birth control?
- Government: Because. Sex isn't for recreation.
- Woman: It can help regulate my period and benefit me in other ways.
- Government: Too bad.
- Man: For no reason other than for recreational sex, may I have birth control?
- Government: Do you have a penis?
- Man: YES, YES I DO!!

My rewrite of Paul Holmes’ article entitled ‘Waitangi Day a complete waste: It’s time to cancel our repugnant national holiday’, featured on the New Zealand Hearld website, 11th February 2012.
Waitangi Day produced its usual hatred, rudeness, and violence against a clearly elected Prime…
Political advocacy fuck yeah.
God if I ever live to even be remotely old, I hope I’m as awesome as Betty White. Chances are slim to none, but a girl can dream.
