#call out
Here is what you should not do:
1. Threaten them with violence, rape, or murder. (e.g. You believe in what? People who believe that deserve to be raped!)
2. Make threats of stalking or imply stalking. (e.g. I have your IP address. I know where you live!)
3. Tell them to kill or hurt themselves. (e.g. Why don’t you go cut yourself!)
4. Make fun of their physical appearance. (e.g. You’re opinions don’t matter you fat cow!)
5. Mock their spelling or grammar. (e.g. Well I can’t take anyone seriously who doesn’t know how to use the right “their”.)
6. Tell them that their opinions are based on a mental illness. (e.g. You’re psycho if you think that!)
7. Tell them that their opinions are based on a passed trauma. (e.g. You think that? Then you must have been raped as a child!)
8. Negate their traumas. (e.g. That information isn’t true! If you’re lying about that then you must be lying about being abused!)
9. Name call. (e.g. You’re a cunt!)
10. Continue the conversation if the person no longer wants it to continue. (e.g. Continuously reblogging a post for weeks with more opinions when the OP has asked you to stop.)

CALL OUT
Sites like Human Rights Watch’s “Call It Out”, Everyday Sexism, Bye Felipe and For Exposure use the simple but effective strategy of collecting real-life instances of bad behaviour (in these cases, hate crimes, sexism and non-payment of artists) and publicising them to the world via a website and Twitter account.
By sharing the incidents you witness, you’re contributing to a public database that holds the nation to account.
Also, it’s pretty simple to copy this model for any other areas of injustice, and set up your own website. One we’ve heard about recently is Beer Sexism, collecting examples of women-unfriendly behaviour in the world of microbreweries.
There are actions listed on the website on how to make a political difference online in the changing global situation. Check out all the other amazing comics / illustration and great actions you can learn from on the site drawthelinecomics.com!

Albert Einstein (whose birthday we celebrate today) once said:
“I have no special talent. I am only passionately curious.”
What are you curious about? Is there’s something you’ve always wanted to know? Or a question that just popped into your head? We pledge to use science (and animation, and art, and music) to answer it. Skunk Bear is looking for Good Questions to guide our next series of videos. Submit here: npr.org/skunkbear.
And please reblog so your friends can ask their questions, too!

Wait. They aren’t jokes. You guys really keep dozens of tabs open on your browser forever.
characters that have sharp teeth and theres not really any explicable reason for it they’re just there:
the human stress response seems so maladaptive!
To be fair 99% of our evolutionary stress response was meant to deal with far more immediately conclusive scenarios than the tedious bullshit we put up with these days.
very very slow tigers are chasing me
not to leave a serious comment on a silly post but one of the best pieces of advice I ever got about stress was to SLEEP but secondly, when overwhelmed, lay in a bed and intentionally hold all your muscles clenched. clench EVERYTHING. hold it for a few seconds, then let go. It tricks your animal fight-or-flight monkey brain into thinking it had, and won, a fight, and some of the stress response will leave you
#turn a slow tiger into a fast tiger with this fucked up trick
“Very very slow tigers are chasing me” is the most hysterical way I’ve ever heard my state of being described
