WHO PUT YOU IN CHARGE?
—
Malala Yousufzai, Girl Shot By The Taliban, Asks Pakistan Not To Rename College For Her.
Did you read that, raging liberals of Pakistan and the West? Malala does not want the attention. She does not want to be a symbol. She does not want to lose her life because your obsession with symbolizing Muslim women into icons of resistance render damage to their very lives. If you genuinely care, try to understand the context and gravity of the situation.

And for God’s sake, stop reblogging that ridiculous comic strip that completely cartoonizes her.

That comic has over 100,000 notes. This has less than 2,000 so far. Malala has been asking people to stop for awhile now. I guess respecting women is a bit too difficult when it’s easier to use them and their experiences to push your own narrative.

Good lord, do people not conduct their own research ever? Malala asked them not to rename the college in December 2012, because the Taliban were attacking it. She said nothing about wanting to lead the quiet life, about wanting to be safe somewhere.
Did nobody watch her Feb 4 2013 public address? “Today you can see that I am alive…I can speak. I can see you, I can see everyone…. God has given me a second life, this is a new life, and I want to serve. I want to serve the people.”
She is not afraid. She’s an activist in a dangerous cause. She’s set up the Malala fund, to help all children get an education. Does that sound like someone who is afraid for her life over what she believes in? Instead of turning on each other for celebrating her courage, maybe we should look at how we can help girls in her situation.

Best photobomb ever.
i had this idea for a bagginshield comic last night and it was so funny that i kept giggling while trying to get to sleep, but i can’t draw to save my life so i’m putting the idea down here, in case any artists i know want to take a shot at it
it was bilbo and gandalf in the first panel, doing the whole “can you promise i will come back?” / “no, and if you do, you will not be the same” exchange
and then the second panel would be bilbo sitting in his armchair with an incredulous sarcastic crumpled-up expression like “okay gandalf O K A Y”
and then it’d be a timecard with 2 years later on it
and then in the third panel, bilbo would be sitting in exactly the same position, but on a throne, and all decked up in jewellery and fine clothes and in a crown, with thorin as king next to him, and he’s just got the funniest expression on his face like “fuck, he was right”
☞HOW do I even begin to say ‘no’ to idrials. XD I may have serious’ed too much my dear hahaha, but I DID THIS AS SOON AS I COULD aaaaaahaha. Also I snuck in some NSFWish. My nsfwish and crack muses are twins and do things together always. Hope you like, dahling! XD XD
Bilbo and the Dwarves
Bilbo isn’t too thrilled by the transportation arrangements.
He would like his money back.
I Love Thiss !!x
