“
One of the problems with modern society is that it places more importance on things that have a price than on things that have a value. Breathing clean air, for instance, or having clean water in the rivers, or having legal rights—these are things that don’t have a price but have a huge value. Oil does have a price, but its value is much less. And sometimes we make the mistake.
Pablo Fajardo (Vanity Fair)

Iraqi orphans singing.

UNICEF claims that there are approximately 800,000 orphans in Iraq today.

In Iraqi state orphanages, 1 in 3 children face abuse.

“I’m too young for all this pain, I’m too young for all this agony 
I live in an Orphanage, 
and my dreams sleep with me”

this documentary made me cry waterfalls and broke my heart to billions of pieces, man :/

Swear to God, I can’t stand to hear a woman claim that she thinks like a guy and hates women because they’re all catty. That’s misogyny. The very fact that you, as a woman, think differently than how a socially-stereotyped woman is supposed to think is proof that our gender “norms” are fucking us over. Women are not all alike. Some of us like football. Some of us like talking on the phone. Some of us like religion. Some of us are emotional. Some of us speak three languages. Some of us have boyfriends. Some of us have girlfriends. Some of us wear lipstick. Some of us don’t shave our pits. Some of us have kids. Some of us worry we’ll drop our best friend’s baby. Now please stop claiming that you don’t act like a woman. It doesn’t make you a special fucking snowflake. It makes you a perpetrator of misogyny.

Egg-fucking-zackly. I know women who seriously think they’re special or part of some elite breed of women because they “get along better with men.” Please.
