YES @wearepussyriot WORLD CUP PROTEST!!! Still much respect and solidarity for our sisters and brothers revolting in Russia! —— via @sexybeastla from the @newyorkermag : On Sunday, in the fifty-second minute of the final game of the World Cup, four women dressed in Russian police uniforms charged the field, briefly disrupting the match. They were members of the Russian protest-art group Pussy Riot.... For Russians, whose cities have filled with crowds of foreign soccer fans over the last few weeks, it has also provided a vision of a different life, one of a country integrated into a big and friendly world... The group’s statement concluded with a list of demands: 1. Free all political prisoners. 2. Stop jailing people for social-media “likes.” 3. Stop illegal arrests at protests. 4. Allow political competition. 5. Stop fabricating criminal cases and putting people in jail for no reason. 6. Turn the earthly policeman into a Heavenly Policeman”

Did you know there is a safe, private option for an at-home abortion? A safe abortion with pills is possible. Every year, all over the world, people choose medication abortion as a safe, private, and effective at-home method to end an early-term pregnancy. The "abortion pill" is actually a combination of two pills, mifepristone and misoprostol, also referred to as medication abortion. The combination of the two pills is the most effective method of medication abortion (95-98% effective in the first trimester). Check out @plancpills / planc.org for more information! #safeabortion #abortionpills #medicationabortion #prochoice #plancpills #feminist #womenshealth #transhealth
From artist @ashlukadraws: “This trans-exclusionary bullshit ‘feminism’ needs to stop now. After many months, I’m restocking the ‘Sisters not just Cis-ters’ print in my shop. 50% of the profits will be going to one of my favorite local organizations, @translatinacoalition.” The prints are now available for pre-order - link in @ashlukadraws’ bio. 💜

South Korean artist and disruptor Lee Bull’s performance, “Sorry for suffering – You think I’m a puppy on a picnic? (1990)”, began when she boarded a plane at Seoul’s Kimpo airport and headed for Tokyo, swamped by the heavy, flesh-coloured material of her bulging bodysuit, and ready to let loose on the capital city. While she says that she will never discuss what her art means, “Sorry for suffering – You think I’m a puppy on a picnic” (1990) is believed to be a feminist critique on the controlling of women’s bodies in patriarchal East Asian society, given Lee had transformed her female body into something monstrous; something socially unacceptable. This early piece would kick off a three-decade-long career for Lee. From the late 80s up until now, she has been prolific in creating a wide-range of works, which draw on a jumble of references from Masamune Shirow’s Ghost in the Shell (1989-90) manga series, to South Korean politics, and even the decaying stench of a fish market. Her work sees her revisiting past experiences (even her own abortion) and then imagining what our future hopes could look like. Read more about the artist on @dazed. Her show Lee Bul: Crashing is on at London’s Hayward Gallery now. via @ashleighkane
