I Got Bored A While Back And Drew Some Crack Drawing With A Tablet Feels Weird Since I Dont Have Palm

the concept and idea of “you can always start trying to be a better person” is extremely important to me both in media and irl and i continue to be deeply deeply disturbed by the trend on this site pushing that these ideas in media are bad writing or even morally reprehensible

because theyd rather someone stay terrible or just straight up die than become a better person 

from a compassionate point of view it’s deeply distressing and from a pragmatic point of view it’s outright frustrating

it’s fucked up. 

With stroke going on and everyone catching up on shows/movies they couldn’t watch

I highly recommend watching old OLD films

Who has left me a bag of Wendy's?

Dave's double? I didn't know Oshry had a restaurant.

I guess I'll give it a try.

hey. listen. when you use too much detergent in your laundry you aren't making your clothes cleaner, you are making them degrade faster. the machine isn't able to rinse out the entire cup of soap you put in, so some of it is left in the fibers of your clothes. when they dry this makes the fabric stiffer and more brittle, so the fibers are more likely to erode and break. over time this makes your clothes wear out much faster than if they were properly rinsed with minimal soap. you are wasting money by overusing detergent, not just on the detergent itself but the clothes you are shortening the lifespan of.

Everything feels awful right now but it isn't really. We still don't officially have a winner, but regardless of how the presidential election ends up, I wanted to take a minute and find what lights I can in the 3 a.m. darkness. Here's what I know:

* Kentucky overwhelmingly rejected an attempt to undermine the public education system by offering private school vouchers:

* Delaware has elected a transgender woman to the House of Representatives, the first out trans person of any gender ever elected to congress:

* For the first time in history, two Black women will be serving in the senate at the same time, and they are only the fourth and fifth Black women ever elected to the senate:

US will have two Black women serving as senators for first time in history

Democrats Lisa Blunt Rochester from Delaware and Angela Alsobrooks of Maryland both saw victories

* New York State has passed a constitutional amendment enshrining the rights of pregnant people (including the right to an abortion), LGBTQIA+ people, the disabled, immigrants regardless of legal status, and other at-risk groups:

New York voters pass Prop 1, enshrine abortion rights into state constitution

The constitutional amendment faced a tougher-than-expected fight after a right-wing campaign against anti-discrimination protections.

* Democrat Josh Stein has beaten self-avowed Nazi Mark Robinson to become governor of North Carolina:

That's everything I know off the top of my head. It's not many bright spots, but it's not zero. I'm going to try to find more and I'll add them to the post. It's the only thing I can think of to do that isn't sobbing and throwing up or looking up Canadian immigration rules.

If you know more good news, I encourage you to add it in reblogs.

I think it's really important to de-gender body parts. A vagina can be a male body part when a man has one. A penis can be a female body part when a woman has one. This means we stop using the words "female" as a replacement for when we want to talk about something related to vaginas, breasts, uteri, clitoris etc. We stop using the term "male bodied" or "male body parts" as a stand in for talking about penis and testicles and prostates. It's a subtle kind of sex negativity and body negativity that surrounds this use of language. People are ashamed to say the words vagina and penis. Gendered language acts as the cloak for that shame, which is also why some people get really angry about this idea. But I think unpacking that shame and desensitizing it will be healthy for all people in the long run. No one needs to be scared of the bodies that we have! Thats unhinged!
