Still remember when a homo- and transphobic acquaintance tried to bring up JKR’s views on trans people in conversation and I shut it down with «oh yeah she’s been saying a lot of dumb shit on Twitter after she finished writing Harry Potter, like when she claimed Dumbledore was gay, just to be politically correct», which made it absolutely impossible for him to admit that he agreed with anything JKR had ever said. Sometimes you just have to weaponise people’s homophobia against their transphobia.
still thinking about this youtube comment i screenshotted ages ago
abstract and modern art haters are sooo snobby like klein literally Created an entirely new pigment and then painted a canvas in a way where the brush strokes wouldn't be visible. the insinuation that people with no skill could reproduce that is so annoying because unless you are skilled at color mixing and painting you definitely couldn’t lmao
Why bother arguing in support of trans people if you’re not trans?
very simple concept called believing in human rights
every time you think about a body part that you don't like (me for example, I don't like my facial hair) you must immediately think about a different part of your body that you do like.
for example if I'm feeling dysphoric about the stubble on my face, I must also think about how I like the curvature of my arms, or how I like the unique amber-green coloring of my eyes. it can be any compliment about your appearance that you can think of
I feel like one of the main things that makes dysphoria so rough is that there isn't any balance between criticism and compliment, and the more you think about parts of your body that you don't like, the more they become a focus in your head
sorry for the rambly post but I'm going to be trying this, and I hope it helps someone else who sees this post too
After raising the price of COVID-19 vaccines more than four-fold this year, Pfizer CEO Albert Bourla told investors Monday that the company will also likely hike the price of its lifesaving COVID-19 antiviral treatment, Paxlovid, raising further concern about access and healthcare costs.
genuinely the way i see it is whenever i’m working/have worked that day i am deceased. dead. no longer alive. then the days i have off someone has done some necromancy or Frankenstein science shit and i am alive but having to relearn. everything. how to be alive
the way being employed keeps you from video games and other various activities is so sick. genuinely demonic
oh btw i was commissioned recently....
this post will be seen by someone who is so cool
on the subject of body positivity, you don't HAVE to like your body in the traditional sense. body positivity isn't limited to just "beauty" or "attractiveness". you can like your body because you think it looks funny. that's what I do
heartbreaking:
girl has sooooooo many ambitions and ideas for projects but can only get 1.5 basic tasks done per day
gender euphoria be upon ye
I cannot hide my feelings anymore, I also like when they shapeshift so make sure to judge me about that
In the early 70s Sesame Street was created with an eye towards educating poor, inner-city children for free, and became a massive hit with all children. In 2016, faced with going off the air forever after facing conservative efforts to destroy public broadcasting since basically its beginning, new episodes became a timed exclusive for premium cable network HBO. In 2022 HBO Max, newly merged with and taken over by reality TV channel Discovery, removed Sesame Street episodes and spin-offs from streaming as a tax write-off and scheme to avoid paying residuals.
Was just talking to a friend about clothes and she was telling me she loves my style but she can never find anything affordable and cute so I am going to teach her all of my tricks and share knowledge about buying on a budget. I love helping people.
I also gave her some unworn items that I no longer fit in because she loved them. ❤
I hunt for bargains, buy things second hand from people and thrift. I don't remember the last time I bought anything for a full price or brand new (except undies). That's my rec to anyone.
I also use BestSecret and you can find really nice clothes there from previous seasons on big sales. I bought a really expensive coat that had a button missing and a few threads loose there for maybe 15 euros and I fixed it up. Usually the items are in perfect condition though.
Idk why BestSecret even has invitation style joining (I think you get perks as the person who invited someone) because it's a really good site.
Here's my code if anyone wants to join. Pretty sure I get some sort of points for it and I think maybe a discount once I give out all 6 invitations and people join in but this is not sponsored in any way!

Last thing I was looking for there was a cheap but cute dress for a wedding this summer, since I gained weight and don't fit into my fancy clothes.
I really liked this one but held off on purchasing because my laptop broke suddenly and fixing it up cost a lot of money so now they're out of my size.
The green one is just sooo pretty. There's an orange version but I don't like it as much.
Facebook deleted this almost immediately. It's almost like the ultrawealthy don't want us knowing or talking about what's at stake.
I know reading posts that say stuff like "love yourself" isn't going to magically make you happy
I've told people online to love themselves probably hundreds of times at this point, and most of the time when I was posting that stuff, I didn't love myself, not even a little bit
but for whatever reason I kept on living, and somehow by living long enough I managed to find out how to love myself. it was not easy, and unfortunately there is no single solution for finding out how to love yourself if you haven't already
the only thing I can say is that the only way to find it is to give it time, keep on living with the desire to one day actually care about living, and eventually it will come to you, even if you really really don't think it will
and it's definitely worth it
hey, I don't really know you, but I can tell you deserve a gold star. whatever you did recently that was hard, I'm proud of you. this star is for you
the owl house said, outright, "don't forgive someone when they refuse to admit they're wrong."
AND
"you are not a bad person for not forgiving someone who ruined your life."
AND!!
"bigots are not owed forgiveness."
AND!!!
"forgiveness is great, but be careful. some people will take advantage of it. you do not owe anyone fourteenth chances. you have the right to not forgive someone. especially if they've spat in your face before."
AND!!!!
"some people are beyond forgiveness not because they were born evil, but because they CHOSE to become unforgivable and to go down. you are not responsible for them facing the consequences of their actions and you are NOT a bad person for not feeling sympathetic for them."
thank you dana this show is a GIFT
Hey I'm trans what do I do now?
You must journey through the western gates into the great unknown, past the black ridge, through the mires betwixt towering mountains, past the empty fields of gold that stretch on for miles, unto horizons anew.
not to be happy online but I love the world so much
barbie: i just feel so out of sorts….like i’m thinking about death and the nature of my being and i feel like everything around me is suddenly changing and my usual hobbies aren’t exciting me anymore?? and all the parties and games and music aren’t distracting me like they used to :/// maybe something’s the matter with me but the only way to find out for sure might be to venture outside of the only world i’ve ever known and i have no idea what’s waiting for me out there. is leaving safety and comfort and parties worth facing the full truth of my existence and the world?
ken: idk babe but it sounds like a fun adventure to me!! i brought my rollerblades!! omfg i LOVE the indigo girls. do you think i’ll get to do an appendectomy?? THIS IS SO FUN-
