So here’s my question: when you lose the most important person to you in the entire world, where is all the love – love you never even knew you were capable of – supposed to go?

“Ghostbusters Movie Trailer Most Disliked In YouTu-”

It’s because they’re women. Just. I’m going to stop you right there and tell you, yeah, it’s disliked because it’s a movie starring women.

“Well no but see it’s actually because it’s a reboo-”

Of the top 15 highest grossing movies of 2015, 9 were either reboots or sequels and 5 were adaptations based on books or comics. [x] You don’t hate the new Ghostbusters because it’s not original enough. It’s because they had the audacity to cast women in a movie not marketed specifically for women. It’s because it’s a reboot of a movie starring men and they cast women.

“Honestly I just didn’t think it was all that funny-”

Don’t be an asshole. That is not why THIS movie’s trailer, above all the outrageously shitty movie trailers made, got the most negative reaction. The movie’s made by and starring people who are already established as marketable. It stars SNL cast, which, again, is really goddamn marketable. It’s an established and popular franchise (and tapping into those has already proven to be really fucking marketable, if last year alone says anything.)

In 2014 only 12% of all clearly identifiable film protagonists were female. (For the purpose of the study, protagonists = the characters from whose perspective the story is told.) [x] People complaining about Ghostbusters are the same mouth-breathing troglodytes who complained that Star Wars cast “ANOTHER girl!” in Rogue One. (Or complained about Rey in Star Wars, or Furiosa in Mad Max, etc. etc. without any fucking end in sight oh my god.) People hate the trailer because they hate women stepping out of the 12% of place they have.

Look, it’s 2016. Let’s just call misogyny what it is and not give it any fucking trending headlines, alright.

My favorite thing about Windows is how it suggests looking at online support to solve internet connectivity issues.

Honestly I think the scariest thing about having a mental illness is when you describe an aspect of it that you’ve accepted as part of your everyday life to someone else and they find it frightening and suddenly you realise that it is frightening, you’d just forgotten

I always have such need to merely talk to you. Even when I have nothing to talk about — with you I just seem to go right ahead and sort of invent it. I invent it for you. Because I never seem to run out of tenderness for you and because I need to feel you near. Excuse the bad writing and excuse the emotional overflow. What I mean to say, perhaps, is that, in a way, I am never empty of you; not for a moment, an instant, a single second.
