Severely Disabled Intersex Trans Person Needs Help Saving Up For Rent

Hey y’all. I know I’ve been gone for a while. I’ve had a lot of personal stuff going on irl lately. I am going to be posting more now.

I’ve figured out that I’m a lesbian.

I’m figuring out more mental health stuff.

I’m going to be graduating from high school this year. I’m going to college in the fall.

I’ll probably post more about these things later. Rn, I’m just saying I’m happy to be somewhat back. The real world is a hellscape rn.

<3 <3 <3

Vent post time

Shit sucks for small businesses in the US rn. I know there’s a lot of bad things going on, but this is still bad. The only groups that seem to be doing well right now are the big ass corporations. (Ik it’s more complicated than that but this is a vent post).

Anyways, wish my family luck y’all. We’re gonna get through this. Also, fuck mega corporations!

Hi!

I’m sort of still getting into punk and learning about everything. You’re blog has been really helpful with resources and everything. Plus your cool.

Okayyy, now my question. I’m a junior in high school and I want to go to college. Pursue further education and all of that stuff. Learn more about the world and critical thinking. But I don’t want to pay a ton of money to a bunch of old ivy dudes.

What’s the right direction to go in for this? Is college a good option if I want to learn? What schools are good places? Where do I learn more about this stuff?

Sorry if this is a lot. Thank you though!

Hey! Thank you for your kindness!!

First off, Im going to stress that you are a junior and you have PLENTY of time to think about this. So dont stress too much right now.

Secondly, I want to preface this with the simple fact of college isnt for everyone. There are SO many ways to survive and thrive in life without it. And thats okay, good even! That being said, this post is just gonna be me talking about college. Under the cut of course

OKAY! So, is college a good option if you want to learn? My answer is yes! I learned a lot at college, both inside and outside my classes. I learned a lot of life lessons, I met people from all over the country (and a few international students). And I learned how to challenge my own beliefs and try to see things from perspectives that I didnt even know could exist prior to college.

But Im sure you were referring to the educational aspect. And truth be told, this heavily depends on both your school and you. Some examples: My school had a phenomenal chemistry program. You couldnt walk out of that program without having learned things if you made it through. But my school also had a very poor fine arts program. And to be quite blunt, I often wondered why any art student chose to stay. But going even further, it depends a lot on the individual as well. I was admittedly not the best student. I wasnt that interested in lab or research compared to some of my classmates, nor did I apply myself as much. And the difference is clear to see when others could rattle off different solvents and what reactions would occur from memory and I would be sitting there dumbfounded.

Next question, what schools are good places? Again, that fully depends on what you want to go to school for. But I’ll tell you what I did and how I chose my school. When I was a junior in high school, I found a list of every 4 year university in my state (I knew I wanted to stay in state, but you can do this for wherever you want to go). I then went through and gave each school a ranking out of 5 (based on vibes, chemistry program, education program, cost, and surrounding area). Once I had it narrowed down to only a few schools, those were the ones I toured. And I chose where to send applications from there.

Though, I cant stress enough how beneficial community college can be. A lot of people get all their gen eds out of the way either before they enroll in a university or over summers. Doing this will save you money and time. Literally not a single person on a university campus would look down on you for this. If anything, they will praise you for being smart. I took a few classes over the summers between semesters just to get them out of the way (and also avoid certain professors).

Where to learn more? Google. Google schools near you. Google schools where you want to go. Google schools ranked nationally in xyz. Google affordable universities. Google universities that have good financial aid programs. Just google so many things. From there, spend time exploring university websites. Read about their community and their academic programs. See if they have virtual tours uploaded. Check out their student activity board social medias to see what it would be like to be there as a student. Sign up for tours. Do an overnight visit if you can!! Or even, just walk around the campus without a tour guide

Best of luck to you on your academic journey! Hope I was a little helpful here

I think that Bruce is the type of guy to drive a person home after hanging out with them or going on a date with them.

And if they choose to leave alone, he’d probably offer to walk them to their car/bike/other equivalent.

I also think that Alfred would have taught him to do this.

We were watching this in my Catholic school, and my friends and I were so excited by the seagulls

let's witness the declaration of a new pope with mama

It’s my B-Day today! Which means I’m a g i n g. Turned 17 today!

I fell off my bed and now my body hurts ): ):

At first, I thought this was about the actual Leonardo Da Vinci. Like the gay painter.

Then I looked at the tags and saw this was about Assassin’s Creed.

I love that Leonardo Da Vinci just...
