BEST COUNTRIES TO BE A WOMAN

Measures of well-being include life expectancy, education, purchasing power and standard of living. Not surprisingly, the top 10 countries are among the world's wealthiest.

1. Iceland
2. Norway
3. Australia
4. Canada
5. Ireland
6. Sweden
7. Switzerland
8. Japan
9. Netherlands
10. France

Jáhá, þetta hefur kannski komið en ég sá þetta núna og Bandaríkin ná ekki topp 10 á listanum.

Afþreying að drepa vændiskonur

i Grand Theft Auto er það partur af ,,leiknum".

If you get through the trailer you will notice that not only are the sex scenes very real looking, most of the women are killed shortly after forcibly performing sex acts. So, many young men are going to have their first (or already have, as this is not new content for GTA) sexual experiences via GTA and then they are going to kill the women they are sleeping with. The implications of that are mind-blowing. It is no question that GTA is merely reflective of the bigger misogyny embedded in capitalist patriarchy, but the question is why is a game that depicts such violence towards women so popular? How is that acceptable?

So this video is NSFW (not safe for work) and it is very disturbing. Trigger warning!

The garbage warrior

Heimildarmynd um mann sem hannar og byggir ódýr eco-hús úr dekkjum og flöskum, en á í stríði við yfirvöld. Áhugavert.
