Aiya Van Kooten everyone

When Aiya Van Kooten stood face-to-face with a burglar in her bedroom, her left eye twitched, then she went into “predator mode”.

“I screamed at him… jumped off my chair, leaped over my bed and sprinted after him down the stairs,” she said.

http://www.stuff.co.nz/national/crime/8626910/Predator-mode-scares-off-burglars

This is the best story of my life

“Although she was the only one home, Van Kooten said she had no regard for her safety - instead, she said she was just overwhelmed with “rage“….. ummmmm Hero!!! 

Haha, badass Muslim woman. Love it!!!

This lady is so awesome. She lives with her grandma and was studying and had a towel on her head and no shoes but she chased them out of her garden, kicked one up the arse as he climbed a fence, they dropped a camera and laptop, she flagged down a passing driver to help her continue the pursuit, and it turned out he was ex-military, and they finally caught one of them in a park and pinned him as the police arrived. Now she’s going to visit the burglar in prison for the next few months to help with his rehabilitation.

So in summary:

This lady doesn’t just defend her home and loved ones, she will hunt you down, team up with other skilled individuals, get you put away, and then teach you the consequences of your actions until you’re a valuable member of society once more.

Seriously she’s a frigging superhero.

um damn

NEW DRAWINGS BY ROBERT L. SCHULTZ

Wisconsin based artist, Robert Schultz

Known for his deliberate and exacting precision, Schultz pays painstaking attention to every composition detail, both overall and in the minutia of each fold of skin, hair, shadow, highlight and pattern. To Schultz, the body in and of itself is a work of art; his drawings serve to expose that intrinsic beauty. 

Robert Schultz received his B.A and M.F.A. from the University of Wisconsin. Schultz is included in several public collections including the Art Institute of Chicago and The Arkansas Art Center.

Current exhibition in gallery printworks Chicago (September 7–October 13, 2012)

Happy Birthday Pirate King! ♕

“Not just the marines… it’s for those who even faced the World Government head on, a ship for the Strawhat crew!”

“I joined your crew…”
“This is one hell of a crew.”

“He said I was his nakama…”

“I’ll go with you, on this road to become the Pirate King.”

“You’re the man who is going to become the Pirate King, right?”

“Luffy is the man who is going to become the Pirate King!”

“I have to be ready to take us anywhere our captain wants to go, wherever it may be!”

“Take me out to the sea with you!”

“Thank you for going along with my selfishness for the past two years!”

This is the rapist who attacked my friend Jess (ladyaches). Due to her being stalked and harassed from a supposed ex-friend of hers, he has been given access to her blog, her personal story of what happened (though the post has since been removed), and is now threatening her on Facebook for daring to speak out and name him as her rapist.

He is silencing and threatening a SURVIVOR with legal action. I have no fucking words. Scum of the earth.

Okay. If you need any advice, here it is:

I’ve had almost the exact same situation happen to me before. This idiot is talking out of his ass. Slander is spoken; that’s how little research he did. I don’t know what P-Safe is — if it’s an org that has anything to do with being safe I hope to god they ignore this freak.

At the most, he’s looking into a libel charge. HOWEVER: even then, he has no ground to stand on. If it’s this girl’s personal blog, she’s talking about her opinion of her experience, right? Her viewpoint.

Her viewpoint of what he did to her is an opinion expressed on a personal blog, and therefore it is not subject to libel laws. Opinions are not libelous in nature — they’re opinions. You can have opinions regarding things like that, even if they happen to be that something illegal took place.

Even if he were to somehow get around the fact that libel cannot be an opinion, truth is an absolute defense. If your friend has been seeing a therapist, doctor - any sort of professional - regarding this situation and that therapist believes her to be truthful, then they are suddenly a good resource should he somehow get this to court.

I don’t know if y’all are in college, but most colleges have some sort of free legal resource. Even without that, you could EASILY find a lawyer to do this pro bono or charge only if damages are awarded.

I hope your friend thought to keep records of what she posted, even though the post has been removed — it’ll be harder to prove any changes he might try to make to it. (You never know, but if no copies exist, then what’s done is done…though check Google - sometimes posts get archived.)

Hopefully, everyone who’s involved already knew this stuff and isn’t getting too perturbed, but it’s an emotionally devastating thing to have happen.

Please, anyone who sees this information — SIGNAL BOOST it. Even if you decide to remove the survivor’s story out of respect to the survivor and not wanting this to go super public — I’m unsure if this blowing up would be good or not — this is REALLY IMPORTANT INFORMATION FOR ANY SURVIVOR RUNNING A BLOG THAT DISCUSSES THEIR HARDSHIP.

BOOM.
