āThe U.S. Womenās National Soccer Team is getting a raise, bigger bonuses and the same per diems as the men.
The womenās team announced Wednesday that it had struck a new labor deal with U.S. Soccer, the sportās governing body. For months, the women have said that their pay and treatment is unequal to the menās team.
The women will also get better hotel and travel accommodations and will be reimbursed for the years when their per diems were less than those of the men.ā
Finally some good news for the USWNT!
Reblogging with the bit that gives the outrage some closure.
She tries to take back her families business only to find that itās been taken over by a cult of Evil Cowboys
are you kidding iād watch the fuck out of this
Her love interest is an Actual Cowboy from the Old West who was the greatest gunslinger of their age and who won countless duels, but they still arenāt as good at it as she is because of Reasons
Reason being she has the Guns of Pecos Bill.
*internal screams of joy*
Do not do this to me my husband is a historical reenactor and weapon historian I know so much about this shit.
My brain is over flowing. Like like i love and hate the idea of it being Pecos Bill because on one hand I can think of 4 real humans I would want it to be and on the other Pecos Bill is BRILLIANT because he is a myth and tweeking things are less likely to hurt historians in their souls.
Also if itās Pecos Bill she would also have his lasso.
You guys. Donāt do this to me.
The Lasso is too OP and you know it!
As someone who knows very little about the Wild Wild West other than that it was the inspiration for a terrible Will Smith film, I am curious to know more about this because I do not know who Pecos Bill is or about his guns/lasso
And Annie Oakleyās rifle. Just saying, she could be proficient at any gun.
I think the whole plot would revolve around them trying to locate Annie Oakleyās rifle Before Itās Too Late.
Guise! GUYS! Marvel already did this. I mean not a literal reverse Iron Fist but a person of colour taking on a role traditionally associated with white european people and rocking it hard.
Iām speaking, of course of Dr Fazia Hussain, Excalibur.
Sheās a muslim wielding one of the greatest magical weapons of european mythology. With which she seriously fucked up one Vlad Tepesh, Count Dracula.
Anyway I thought Iād mention it as sheās a BAMF. Iāll let you get back to your Chinese gunslinger.
SO WHO HURT YOU HIDEAKI? WHO DO I HAVE TO BLAME FOR THIS BEING THE SHAPE OF YOUR HEART?Ā
God Iām so sick of this fucking show asking the same question again and again like itās deep or revolutionary or anything other fucking tiresome padding, like dude I get that you want to offer your philosophical soliloquy at an audience but literally I could care less about the time you got high with your girlfriend and started questioning,Ā āI meanā¦but likeā¦what IS humanity really, man?ā The idea that we are defined through our relationships with others goes back to WALDEN FUCKING POND, as far as overhyped self-centered soliloquies go, and I cannot BELIEVE that you are making me say that FUCKING THOREAU, WHO???? I HATE! IS BETTER THAN WHAT IS GOING ON HERE.Ā
YOU MADE ME DEFEND HENRY DAVID THOREAU I HATE YOU.Ā
