Via It's simple like a mountain is simple.People are calling today “Feminist Christmas” because the anti choice policies in Oklahoma and Texas were struck down in the courts. If we can have a “Feminist Christmas” while a black trans woman is facing jail time for trying to survive a racist and transphobic attack and three other trans women of color were reported murdered just last month, then Feminism, and each of us as feminists, is failing.

No, you can’t deny women their basic rights and pretend it’s about your ‘religious freedom.’ If you don’t like birth control, don’t use it. Religious freedom doesn’t mean you can force others to live by your own beliefs.

A soul mate is an ongoing connection with another individual that the soul picks up again in various times and places over lifetimes. We are attracted to another person at a soul level not because that person is our unique complement, but because by being with that individual, we are somehow provided with an impetus to become whole ourselves.

I loved you like a man loves a woman he never touches, only writes to, keeps little photographs of.
Charles Bukowski (via loveyourchaos)(Source: thisisdino)
I think too much when I kiss.
If love did not exist,
I would be so goddamn sane.
My poems would be billboards.
Suburbia would be enough.
I would not have to gut myself to find my spine,
crushed into powder,
and brushed on her cheekbones.
My hair would not be a hummingbird’s nest.
My mind would not have to move so fast to rest.
