Reading as teenager gets you a better job →
Of all the free-time activities teenagers do, such as playing computer games, cooking, playing sports, going to the cinema or theatre, visiting a museum, hanging out with their girlfriend or boyfriend, reading is the only activity that appears to help them secure a good job.
This is one of the conclusions of an Oxford University study into 17,000 people all born in the same week in May 1970....

"Real Men"
womyneosoul:
I’m getting tired of these “Real Men” ads and promos. I just get a heteronormative, homophobic, sexist vibe from them that’s unrelenting. What’s a “real man?” And if there is a “real man” then is there a “real woman?” What makes a man a “real man?” I’d really like to know. If there is one way to be a man or woman then there’s exclusion for a whole lot of people. These “real men”...

The court ruling, which upheld an appeals court decision exonerating the men, left only one of...

In 1633 Galileo was put on trile against the Roman Catholic Church for stating the Copernican Model, which was the theory that the earth and all other planets in our solar system revolved around the sun instead of everything, including the sun, revolved around the earth. He was found guilty on the terms that this theory went against the Holy Scripture and was confined to house...

Anonymous asked: Sister, you are Muslim and understand the beauty of hijab. Therefore, why do you not protect the grace and beauty Allah has given you?

Mindfuck of the night →
cosmosweednlife:
Consider this, both string theory and M theory state there are Extra dimensions (space, time, etc.). In addition, they both state the large probability of parallel universes. If you’re already having trouble grasping the concept, well look no further than the particles of atoms which are part of the quantum mechanic world, they do not abide by the laws of physics. For instance,...

I guess it’s safe to say that there is a pretty big chance that I won’t be posting for the next couple of days, so I just thought I’d let everyone know. Take care, everyone!
