I have to say this is completely legit - someone tried to steal her handbag and she simply went “Fuck this- *suplex*”
My hero
someone teach me this pweeze-ooc
Ok Ladies, here’s the info on this move.
We are blessed with a low center of gravity. This means that when we get ahold of someone and tip over backward like that, it’s easy peasy for us to do. Especially on a guy. Think of it like a fulcum and lever: they’re the lever, we’re the fulcrum, and because their center of gravity is up in their chest, instead of in their pelvis, when we get down low and lean back, whupsy there they tip right over.
Now, here’s the real deal on that particular move. Check out how this gif end, with the guy’s head on the floor like that? How his torso seems straight up and down, his head and neck on the floor, all his body weight and the momentum of having been tossed over her shoulder?
Yeah, he’s pretty messed up from that. In the really real world, if you do that move correctly, toss your whole body into it, seriously oomph it up and give that mugger a throw, you can snap his neck.
All that said, here’s how you do it!
This is something you do fast, ladies. Move quickly and with assurance, and don’t worry about whether you’re strong enough to do it or not: you are. This is about physics, not muscle.
Get low, bend your knees and hips. Our strength is largly concentrated in our lower bodies, and when we put our knees and thighs into a move, we bring some of the largest muscles in the human body to bear. You’d be surprised what you can move with your legs.
When she got low on him, her right arm was around his waist, her shoulder roughly at or under his ass, her left arm wrapped around his left leg. Feet shoulder width apart for a nice stable base, big deep breath in, and lift just a bit while falling backwards. It doesn’t take much strength but it will really mess with the dude’s day. Landing on your head will at the very very least knock you silly for a minute.
Interestingly, we can use these same basic principles to ruin a guy’s day if he’s the one to grab us! Imagine, if you will, mugger dude runs up behind you and bear hugs you in preparation for dragging you into the alley. Scary, right? Yep.
If he lifts you too fast, and you find your feet off the ground, kick him in the shins, scrape your shoes down his legs, aim for the knees and his feet. Toss your head back and head butt him. Bite him. Squirm. Do what it takes to get your feet back on the ground.
Feet on the ground, grab his arms and hold on to them. Don’t let him get away, because this move, ladies, will put him down and out, and if he moves away he may go for a distance weapon, or start using his fists. Hold onto his arms and keep him in close.
Again, feet shoulder width apart. Use your booty and hips now, like you’re trying to hit his not-so-manly bits with your ass, get your hips back, bend your knees and flex your hips. If he’s shortish, you should at this point have picked him up and be balancing him on your back. If he’s tall, you’re now in position to put a crimp in his style in a big way.
Tuck your head to your chest and roll forward, just like you did when you were a kid. Flip yourself forward and let gravity do the rest. You will have your head tucked down, aiming to land on the upper back of one shoulder; he won’t. This means he’ll land on his face, with the full force of his own body weight behind it as well as any momentum you’ve built up. You may very well land on top of him too.
From here, get up, run like hell towards a light source while yelling “help, fire, call 911 (or whatever emergency services number exists in your country)”
Remember, ladies, with just a little understanding of comparative anatomy and physics, you too can put a man on the ground and seriously mess up his day. But then, that’s what he was planning to do to you, so fair’s fair.
Reblogging again because of Gryphyn’s awesome comment. C:

Korean poster which has been making it’s way around
Translation:
Protesting sexual harassment and violence against women
ETIQUETTE FOR MEN AT NIGHT
- Remember that your presence can be threatening to women walking alone at night
- If a woman is walking in front of you alone at night, slow down. You walking quickly or speeding up can be and in most cases is threatening
- If you’ve been drinking and are drunk, go straight home.
- Do not pick a fight or aggravate women walking at night
- Do not take off your clothes or publicly urinate
- Be careful to make sure you do not touch or hit someone, even on accident.
- If, late at night, you come to a situation in which you and a woman have to ride an elevator together, let her go up first and wait for the elevator to come back down.
- If there’s a woman in a public restroom (There are Korean public restrooms with no gender or sex markings that are open to all people), wait for her to finish and come out first before using the restroom.
- Report broken streetlights to the police
- Tell other men about these rules and that they have a responsibility to not threaten women walking at night
THIS! This needs to printed and put up frikkin’ everywhere.
!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
VERY GOOD, I LIKE THIS A LOT
so this is the perfect anti-sexual harassment poster. Aimed at guys, explaining explicitly in which situations women feel unsafe and how to avoid them, situations a lot of guys don’t even think about, and making it quicker to identify harassers by noting when these rules are broken. Also sounds small but the broken streetlamp one is good.

Meet Borderlands 2′s Ellie: The “opposite of how most females tend to be represented in games”
This is Ellie. You may have seen her in the latest Borderlands 2 trailer (unless you were distracted by the dangerously high levels of a-whimoweh), but up to now we didn’t know much about the series’ new NPC. I recently had the opportunity to send the Gearbox team a few questions about Ellie’s design, origin, and role — read on to find out who she is, how she came to be, and how Gearbox seeks to defy stereotypes.
These written answers were a group effort by the Gearbox team.
Who is Ellie? What role does she play in the story?Gearbox: Ellie is Scooter’s sister. From a pure purpose level, we needed a character to introduce our new Bandit Technical vehicle, and since we were already using Scooter elsewhere in the game, it didn’t make sense for him to do it. Still, Scooter is “the car guy” in our universe and it felt like anyone who introduced a new car should still be connected to him in some way. Thus, Ellie was born.
The narrative goal with Ellie was to have a character who hits all of the tick marks of a good Borderlands character (funny, unexpected, looks as if they could probably kill you in thirteen different ways if you got on their bad side), while also making an independent female character who looked the exact opposite of how most females tend to be represented in games. We also wanted to make sure that, through her dialog and visual design, we never cast her in a light where the player is encouraged to pity, laugh at, or mock her because she doesn’t look like Jessica Rabbit.
How did her design come about?GB: Ellie is one of Moxxi’s daughters from Borderlands 1. Being that she was Scooters sister we knew we had a challenge coming up with a character that wouldn’t be dwarfed by his over the top personality.
Originally this led us to a design where she was hugely muscular and tough playing off the idea of a woman who was more manly than Scooter was. This muscle-bound incarnation ended up being a bit too abrasive and bandit-y so we decided to keep her large size but at the same time soften her body shape. In this way she ended up being a strong woman with her own unique silhouette and style.
Who voices her?GB: Jamie Marchi, who is awesome.
Was animating such a unique character a particular challenge?GB: She certainly had some challenges unique to her size! We went through five iterations of neck fat and positioning so that she could make eye contact with you without her neck looking wrong. Making her balance look believable also required some special positioning; we had to lean her entire model back further to compensate for her chest size. Speaking of that, Ellie is one of two female characters in the game with custom chest animations. Our animators have a general rule that cup sizes over “D” cup get custom chest animations. The other character with “special” animation work is Ellie’s mom, Moxxi.
Does she ever bludgeon anyone with that giant wrench?GB: No, but she does straight-up murder a dude in a really gory way less than ten seconds after you meet her. So, there’s that.
Fuck yeah body diversity in video games.
Sweet! :D
These are the companions to the sexuality cards I created a few weeks ago: GENDER BUSINESS CARDS.
Fuck yeah.
The opposite side to these cards are pronoun based, like the final image. I have pronoun sets of:
- She/Her
- He/Him
- They/Them
- Ze/Hir
- Ey/Em
These pronoun set will be uploaded in a separate post since tumblr only allows for 10 images per photoset.To get the whole “business card experience,” print your two selected cards double-sided. Cut them out, and bam. You’re in business. (I’m so sorry for the pun. It was necessary.)Thank you to everyone in the trans*, genderqueer, and beyond communities for teaching me and helping me on my journey! Your help was greatly appreciated, and these would have never been possible without the people who contacted me and gave me advice and guidance. You guys rock!
These are pretty good yeah?
The most upsetting part of this situation is the fact that it is a common occurrence. Just minutes after I wrote about it, James Wilson shared this link to a recent Washington Post article highlighting nearly the exact same situation: a walk down the street, a groping, the chase afterward. I was only lucky because the man rode away slowly and so I could catch up to him and … do something. Was my reaction the most responsible? Probably not. But this is something I’ve written about in the past and something that still upsets me. Why? Because it is incredible how something so quick can become so powerful, so rupturing to the rest of your day.
IF YOU NEED HELP DISPOSING OF THE BODY LET ME KNOW
God is real.
*phew*
There we go. I’ve continued the sassy coming out ace card to extend to more orientations. These are intended as a joke, but they might actually come in handy if you’re being questioned about your orientation and you need a sassy retort.
[Note: I’ve also edited the asexual one for optimum readability. If you are visually impaired, I would greatly appreciate your feedback on the legibility and readability of these comps. I wanna make sure everyone can enjoy my designs, not only those with good vision. So your feedback is a big help!]
Today my sister watched me put on my binder before I went to school.
She asked me if it hurt. I said sometimes, and showed her some of my bruises from it.
She asked me why I do it, I said because it makes me feel human.
She said, “At least you’re not an alien.”
“But I am an alien. In my own body. I don’t see myself as you see me. To me these things aren’t here,” I replied pointing to my chest.
I went to school. I just got home, took off my binder, and saw a piece of paper sticking out from my pillow. I moved my pillow and found this.
Can I just be honest and say I have the sweetest little sister in the world and that she has completely made me bawl my eyes out.
Thank you so, so much little sis. And yes, every penny counts.
I love you, kiddo. More than anything.#wellThatmademeTearUp.

OH MY GOD I FORGOT ALL ABOUT THESE
WHAT ARE THESE WHY WERE THEY NOT A PART OF MY CHILDHOOD
aw, robinita hood. love that the voice actors are POC too. these make me so happy, wow!
I have seen 3/4ths of these. Dear white people, I submit to you: You have NO idea how HAPPY I’d get when these came on t.v. How OVERJOYED I was to see people, even cartoons, that looked LIKE ME. Representing stories I’d grown up with, where I got to be the princess. Where brown and black people were happy. Where brown and black people overcame to triumph. Color, to children of color, DOES matter. The success and impact of these episodes from HBO show that. Fairy tales for EVERY child MATTERS.
awesome.
WELL THESE LOOK FANTASTIC
I can’t believe I never knew this show existed holy shit
