4. If the car pulls up to you run in the opposite direction.
5. Walk with your keys in your hands and keep a key between each finger
6. If they put you in the trunk kick out the headlights
7. If you get lost find a woman with a child. Never ask a man for help (this one was drilled)
That scream fire piece of advice is literally life saving
8. Watch your shadows and reflections, especially if someone is walking behind you. A split second notice is better than none and will help you.
Yes this last one really saves lives y'all I do it all the time
girls have to learn to view the world like international intelligence agents just to be safe walking down the street. smh.
guys pls pls pls reblog and girls pls pls pls be safe out there. terrifying and so sad that we have to worry about this on a daily basis
9. Depending on the assault, pee yourself. More effective than vomiting.
10. Throw your purse past them and run in the oppisite direction. Better to lose the purse than you.
11. It is easier for a girl to run with her skirt pulled up than for a guy to run with his pants pulled down. Take any advantage to get out of there.
12. If assaulted, claw the fuck out of the attacker. DNA trapped under your fingernails will help the police catch them.
13. If a cop pulls up behind you at night, slow down and put on your hazards. BUT KEEP DRIVING to a public, well-lit area. In the dark, it’s easy for people to impersonate police.
14. Trust your instincts. Don’t stay in an unsafe situation to avoid seeming rude. Cross the street. Don’t get into elevators with a strange man. Don’t accept drinks from strangers. It’s better to be seen as bigoted, rude, or cold then to end up hurt.
So much good advice.
Don’t put you drink down when you’re a bar. If you ask for water, ask for a bottle, not a glass and make sure the seal for the cover isn’t broken.
The ‘Infinite Monkey Theorem’ suggests that if an infinite number of monkeys were given typewriters, they would eventually produce the complete works of William Shakespeare. In 2003, this theory was tested by putting a computer inside a primates zoo enclosure for a month. They bashed it with a rock, took a crap on it, and typed 5 pages of mostly the letter ‘S’.
Getting dumped for someone else hurts more than any other kind of breakup. Known as comparative rejection, studies show it’s the most difficult type of break- up to cope with because it increases feelings of exclusion.
Also, if someone isn’t given a reason for a breakup, they are likely to assume there’s someone else – so if there isn’t, it’s nice to lessen the pain by letting them know.
Studies show those who are often stressed, get irritated easily, and worry about things tend to have longer life spans than people who are more laid back.
Vivian from Paper Mario 2004 is a transgender woman. It is openly stated in the Japanese version that she ‘appears to be a girl but is really a boy’ seeking acceptance from her sisters, who finally see her as female in the end.
Feathers were highly valued in Hawai'i and were an important part of their religion. Feathers were used in representations of the gods. A high-status cloak made of feathers, called an ‘ahu ‘ula, was a marker of prestige and power. 'Ahu 'ula were worn with feathered helmets, or mahiole – a chief would have been decked from head to toe in feathers!
When Hawai'i became a kingdom in 1795, they were influenced by the monarchies of Europe, and eventually gave themselves a coat of arms. On it were two figures wearing red and yellow 'ahu 'ula and a mahiole.
Evelyn Bross and Catherine Barscz, a couple, photographed after their arrest for cross-dressing and public indecency. Bross, who was 19 years old at the time, worked as a machinist at a WWII defense plant. But her men’s haircut and trousers clearly meant she was a danger to the public!
