There’s A Ton Of Shit You Can Get In Life If You’re Willing To Submit Yourself To The Mortifying

extensive thread of blm related petitions that still haven’t reached their goal

im not being funny but artistry will save your life. music, painting, pottery, writing, carving, weaving, the act of creating will save you.

a lot of men say they want women to embrace their natural beauty but they really just want women who are already “pretty enough” without makeup to not wear makeup… like, you don’t want someone to show their natural acne and scars and natural hyper pigmentation, you don’t let women have their natural mustaches, chin hair, beards, and unibrows without shitting on them, which is exactly how they grow for a lot of people, etc. you want women to wax and shape their natural brows, remove their natural facial hair and body hair, and do a strict skincare regimen to manipulate the chemistry and physiological processes of their skin to maintain clear unblemished skin and adhere to already existing beauty standards. you just don’t want them to wear the style of makeup you don’t like lol

Ladies, please normalize being high maintenance. Keep your standards high, expect people to climb to reach them. Tell them that yes, you do plan on spending your money, your time, and your energy on yourself first. Unabashedly tell people “no” with no explanation. When they ask you “who do you think you are” tell them that you’re you. And that is enough. 

I don’t trust men who glorify ‘low maintenance’ women who ‘don’t ask for much’. You just want someone you can put in as little effort as possible for, who will be excited over the tinest bare minimum things you do for her because she doesn’t know any better and doesn’t value herself enough

FOR THOSE OF YOU PROTESTING

TAKE NOTES FROM HONG KONG AND USE THE BRICKS THAT THE POLICE ARE PLANTING TO INCITE VIOLENCE TO YOUR ADVANTAGE!!

We need to be smarter and stack them up, glue them to the ground, or place them in large patterns to block Police vans from causing more damage.

PLEASE SPREAD TO GET THIS IDEA ROLLING
