Omar Khadr, a sixteen year old Guantanamo Bay detainee weeps uncontrollably, clutching at his face and hair as he calls out for his mother to save him from his torment. “Ya Ummi, Ya Ummi (Oh Mother, Oh Mother),” he wails repeatedly, hauntingly with each breath he takes.

The surveillance tapes, released by Khadr’s defence, show him left alone in an interrogation room for a “break” after he tried complaining to CSIS (Canadian Security Intelligence Service) officers about his poor health due to insufficient medical attention. Ignoring his complaints and trying to get him to make false confessions, the officers get frustrated with the sixteen year old’s tears and tell him to get himself together by the time they come back from their break.

“You don’t care about me. Nobody cares about me,” he sobs to them.

The tapes show how the officers manipulated Khadr into thinking that they were helping him because they were also Canadian and how they taunted him with the prospect of home (Canada), (good) food, and familial reunion.

Khadr, a Canadian, was taken into US custody at the age of fifteen, tortured and refused medical attention because he wouldn’t attest to being a member of Al Qaeda, even though he was shot three times in the chest and had shrapnel embedded in his eyes and right shoulder. As a result, Khadr’s left eye is now permanently blind, the vision in his right eye is deteriorating, he develops severe pain in his right shoulder when the temperature drops, and he suffers from extreme nightmares.

He has been incarcerated at Guantanamo Bay since 2002, suffering extremely harsh interrogations and torture (methods), and is now 25 years old.

How can they justify shooting and imprisoning a CHILD

normalized psycopathic behavior at the national level.

This is seriously serial-killer level torturing shit. If a single person did this, capturing a teenage boy and keeping them locked up and treating them like this, we’d call them a serial killer, a predator, a sociopath. 

But when the government does it and has several individuals on a lot of levels making it happen, suddenly it’s okay.

While you are celebrating Obama publicly making comments supporting gay marriage, his actual policies are putting queer and transgender people at risk. While you are signing Think Progress forms thanking Obama for making comments in an interview, transgender women in immigration detention centers face extraordinarily high risks of rape because of Obama’s stances on deportation and PREA. While you are saying Obama has your vote because he said something sensible, B Manning, a member of the LGBTQ community, faces the death penalty for blowing the whistle on war crimes.

To all the people who judge sex workers and say, as Tina Fey did, “We should all be better than that,” I ask: If you really cared about helping us, the poor and deluded sex workers of the world, why is your money not where your mouth is? Why haven’t you stood up and said to a sex worker, “Hey, I’ll pay your bills and pay your tuition at a university so you can get any degree you desire. I’ll help you.” I’ll tell you why you haven’t said it: Because you don’t care, you’re just looking for someone to judge. As I’m the only one who pays my bills and puts food on the table for myself and my family, I feel justified in giving you a hearty, “Fuck You!” while I’m on my way to work. I’m not afraid of your judgment and I’m not afraid to stand up for myself. I’m a sex worker for my own reasons, and not a single one of those reasons is you.

Male fantasies, male fantasies, is everything run by male fantasies? Up on a pedestal or down on your knees, it’s all a male fantasy: that you’re strong enough to take what they dish out, or else too weak to do anything about it. Even pretending you aren’t catering to male fantasies is a male fantasy: pretending you’re unseen, pretending you have a life of your own, that you can wash your feet and comb your hair unconscious of the ever-present watcher peering through the keyhole, peering through the keyhole in your own head, if nowhere else. You are a woman with a man inside watching a woman. You are your own voyeur.

cat punxxx 4 lyf33

this is literally my favorite post on the internet.

Katie and I need to make these for Meeko!  Meeko is in need of a feminist symbol punk vest with a ACAB (All cats are beautiful) patch too!

This will never not make me smile. I need to make a size XXL one for Hades. He’s gotten quite fat.

Holding hands may seem like an innocent gesture, but they show more than a simple interlocking of fingers. Your hands are one of the most essential parts of your body: you build with them, feed with them, hold with them, touch with them, fight with them; they are the tools of the human body. To take a hold of another’s hand is to break from living individually. It is to link yourself to another being, to momentarily entwine your life with another’s, to promise, for a moment, that you need not face the world alone. More simple, more aesthetically naive than other forms of affection, i.e kissing, hugging, sexing.., the act of holding hands is often trivialized in its true implications.

D*face SPRAYPAINT SKATEBOARDING

How did I not see this project by London-based artist D*face, at the southern california skate pool ‘ridiculous’. Five skateboarders were armed with spraycans becoming human brushes for a pool-sized canvas leaving permanent colourful skatetrails as they rode.
