Bulldozer destroys Mayan pyramid in Belize
AP:
A construction company has essentially destroyed one of Belize’s largest Mayan pyramids with backhoes and bulldozers to extract crushed rock for a road-building project, authorities announced on Monday.
The head of the Belize Institute of Archaeology, Jaime Awe, said the destruction at the Nohmul complex in northern Belize was detected late last week. The ceremonial center dates back at least 2,300 years and is the most important site in northern Belize, near the border with Mexico.
Wooowwwww

I have been on the receiving end of wet, sweaty dollar bills pulled from someone’s bra. What the fuck.
That terrible moment when they reach for money out of their bra or back pocket…especially on a hot day…

Judge Refuses Trans Woman’s Name-Change Request Because “God Meant For [Her] To Stay Male

The whole story is indeed disgusting. Primates are not and should never be pets. I’m also glad I’m not the only one who gets angry when people call any primate a monkey.
Even so, this whole story is disgusting. The man had two, and dumped one in a bin to die when he realised he couldn’t fit both down his trousers… Destined for the pet trade.

Today in Why Arizona Sucks: Flagstaff cop who drunk drove to concert and sexually assaulted civilian woman gets off scot-free.
The judge told the victim, “If you wouldn’t have been there that night, none of this would have happened to you.” Because apparently, if women go to concerts, they should expect to be sexually assaulted.
Petition for recall of asshole judge:

And reblogging again for said petition. Signal boost this.

12-Year-Old Tasered by Cop | Occupy America
A police officer tased a 12-year-old girl inside a Victoria’s Secret Wednesday afternoon at South County Center.
Police say the officer went to Victoria’s Secret looking for the teenager’s mom, who had warrants for her arrest. But it was the teen who got tased.
“This one goes in my chest. It was stuck in there so she had to keep on pulling trying to pull it out,” said Dejamon Baker, as she pointed to a small wound on her chest, and a matching wound on her stomach.
A police spokesman said that the dangerous 12-year old was ” physically getting involved and would not back away,” as officers were arresting the girls mother on outstanding warrants for “unresolved traffic tickets.”
The girl’s mother said that she plans to file a complaint against the policeman who tazed her daughter.

Teen Cancer Patient Can't Get Chemo Because She's Nine Weeks Pregnant - But She Can't Get an Abortion, Either
Esperanza, a teenage girl with acute leukemia living in the Dominican Republic, will die if she doesn’t start chemotherapy treatments as soon as possible. But she’s nine weeks pregnant, and her country banned abortion even in cases where the mother’s life is in danger back in 2010.
And here’s yet another reason it’s stupid to outlaw abortion.
This is what pro-lifers want.
So, how does it feel pro-lifers? How does it feel to know you’ve accomplished this?
Love,
Rabble
So now the mother AND the fetus will die. Must be GOD’S WILL, though.

Fuck Yeah, Gender Studies!: RadFem 2012 is fucking disgusting. Obviously.
“RadFem 2012 is women only. We respect that discussion spaces are needed free from oppression and dis-empowerment, and we assert our right as women to organise a women only space. As Radical Feminists we recognise that patriarchy dominates personal and political spaces across the globe. In…
