A Glasgow nightclub has installed a two-way mirror which allows male revellers in private booths to spy on unsuspecting women as they visit the toilet! With no notification or signage anywhere in the venue many female club goers have been left feeling embarrassed and used. Although they do briefly show the mirrors in a promo video, the club has been quickly deleting comments and posts on their social media from club goers trying to alert others to the situation. This is pretty much illegal and hugley violates privacy. Thank you The Shimmy Club for giving us a shiny, new, creative and cool take on objectification. article here
i’m never leaving my house again, this world is just too fucked up.
Tumblr’s at it again, thanks to the new European Privacy Laws. There’s probably nobody who will read this, but it pissed me off so much that I decided to make a post about it. (Ignore the weird language mish-mash, depending on your country the language might differ.)
OK, so many of us get this screen when we try to access our dash:
Realise how the ‘OK’ button is a nice, attention-grabbing blue? If you’re like me, you’re not exactly into reading a 100 pages document and tend to just click it.
My tip? DONT. Instead click on ‘Manage Options’ right next to it:
Now you’ll see this page:
Still pretty harmless, right? That ‘Accept’ button is looking really attractive right now. Instead, click on Verwalten (Probably something like ‘Manage Options’ or something in english) and you’ll get to this page:
Now that’s not too bad, right? I just switched all the buttons to ‘off’, because I’m jealously guarding my personal information and don’t want Tumblr to go off and do who knows what with it. Looks like we’re done! But wait: There’s a SHOW option.
When we click on that one, what we will get is this:
A HUGE list with OVER 300 ENTRIES of companies that can use your data by default if you’d just clicked ‘OK’ on that very first page. Coincidence that this list is hidden that much? Me thinks not. They’re all switched on by default, but I am still a petty bitch that doesn’t want to give out her data, so I switched them all off. All 300+ of them. There is no option to switch them all off at once, and even if you disable all the options above, the companies are still switched on.
(If you wonder how i got that number, I copied the list into excel and looked at the cell number. No way am I actually counting all those entries)
Sounds like a cool system
This needs to be a nationwide initiative!
PLEASE BE CAREFUL FOR ANYONE WHO USES “BLUEBUFFALO” FOR THEIR DOGS!!

246 people went to sleep in preparation for their morning flights. 2,606 people went to sleep in preparation for work in the morning, 343 firefighters went to sleep in preparation for their morning shift. 60 police officers went to sleep in preparation for morning patrol. 8 paramedics went to sleep in preparation for their morning shift. None of them saw past 10am on Sept. 11, 2001.
In one single moment life may never be the same. As you live and enjoy the breaths you take tonight before you go to sleep in preparation for tomorrow, kiss the ones you love, snuggle a little tighter, and never take one second of your life for granted. ~Kathleen Donohue, via Facebook.

There is probably something that you are naturally skilled at but never realised and wasted so much potential.
My school has decided we can’t bring backpacks to HIGH SCHOOL CLASSES. WHERE YOU NEED TEXTBOOKS AND LARGE PROJECTS. we only get 5 minutes in between classes and most students classes are across campus. The school is scared that someone will have a weapon in their backpack but during most school shootings backpacks with heavy books and other items have saved lives. My friend emailed our principle a very strongly worded letter and he has his heart set on it. Reblog if you disagree and me and my friend will write down everyone who does, and give it to him. Thank you!
I was going to do a Camp Camp one, but then I remembered the Merc Trilogy and I-
