The Rumpus has a Tumblr!
They call it the Rumblr, and it’s kind of fucking amazing. Tumblr Tuesday, y’all!

“on the left he’s reading “The World Without Us,” by Alan Weisman. on the right he’s reading “The Adventures of Tintin,” by Hergé.”
This blog makes me so happy.
“I wanted to start a website for teenaged girls that was not kind of this one-dimensional strong character empowerment thing, because one thing that can be very alienating about a misconception of feminism in that girls then think that to be feminists they have to live up to being perfectly consistent in their beliefs, never being insecure, never having doubts, having all the answers… and this is not true and actually recognizing all the contradictions I was feeling became easier once I realized that feminism was not a rulebook but a discussion, a conversation, a process.”
God, this girl is amazing. Tavi Gevinson is everywhere these days and deservedly so…here’s her charming appearance on Wait, Wait…Don’t Tell Me!, here she is answering The Feministing Five over at Feministing.com, here is her amazing fashion blog, The Style Rookie, that she started when she was 11 years old, and here is her newest project, RookieMag.com, a website for teenage girls, which she talks about in the TEDxTeen talk above. Meanwhile, I think it’s worth mentioning if I’ve managed to put pants on before noon! I have a lot to learn from her.

Men Who Trust Women
“I trust women because I trust human beings, and —as absurd as it is that you have to tell some people this —women are human beings.”
Radical stuff here people! But seriously this blog is really great.

HELLO, AND WELCOME TO PLANNED PARENTHOOD, YOU SLUTTY SLUT. WHAT’S THE PROBLEM TODAY? YOU WANT A SLUTTY MAMMOGRAM TO DETERMINE WHETHER OR NOT YOU’VE GOT SLUTTY BREAST CANCER? JUST KIDDING, OF COURSE. YOU’RE HERE FOR AN ABORTION BECAUSE NO MATTER HOW MANY TIMES IT’S MATHEMATICALLY PROVEN THAT LESS THAN FIVE PERCENT OF OUR TOTAL PROCEDURES ARE ABORTION, EVERYONE STILL BELIEVES THAT ALL WE DO IS GET RID OF YOU AND YOUR ARMY OF HIPPIE BOYFRIENDS’ SLUTTY MISTAKES, YOU BIG OLD SLUT, YOU.
SLUTEVER, AM I RIGHT? TAKE A SEAT OVER THERE AND WE’LL SEND SOMEONE OUT TO DO A PROVOCATIVE SEX DANCE BEFORE WE GIVE YOU SOME NUDIE MAGS AND NIPPLE TASSELS. I HOPE YOU DON’T HAVE ANY LEGITIMATE HEALTH ISSUES BECAUSE THAT WOULD RUIN OUR NONSTOP SLUT PARTY.
NEXT, PLEASE.
PSA: This blog needs to be a part of your life. In a big way.
