saw a woman comforting her sobbing child saying “i already told you, you have to keep looking forward, looking back just gets you hurt” and i thought she was sharing a beautiful life lesson about the importance of letting go of regret and resentment. but it turns out the kid just wasn’t looking where he was going and ran into a wall

I love the term “loanwords” because it implies that you intend to give them back.

I find it fascinating that people who choose not to have children are generally assumed to feel really strongly about not having children (or even to feel really strongly against children, anyone’s children, in general). I am probably not going to have children, not because I REALLY REALLY HATE the idea of having children, but because I don’t really really love it. Out of all the major decisions I will make in my life, this one is the only irreversible one. I can sell a house, quit a job, divorce a spouse, whatever. I cannot unhave a child. I cannot opt out of being a parent once I become a parent. I can’t even take a step back for the sake of self-care or whatever, or else my child will suffer.
So for me, having children is fuck yes or not at all. The default will be to remain childfree. Having children should be an opt-in decision, not an opt-out one. Until/unless I develop really strong feelings about wanting to have children, I won’t have them, even if that means I never end up having them at all.

I just realized why Wednesday works so well for me as a high school show and a big part boils down to the dance:
The dresses aren't sexy.
They're pretty, they're cute, they're stylish. But I NEVER felt like any of the dresses for the girls - or the dances - were meant to be 'hot' or 'titillating' to an adult audience.
They're teens at a school dance. They look GORGEOUS but not 'sexy' for an adult gaze.
The school uniforms are LONG skirts, not micro-mini shorts with stockings that so many boarding school things go for. Even the costumes for the Poe cup - The Black Cats could have gone super sexy kitties, but while the jumpsuits were tight, they weren't catwoman tight. Wednesday's outfit was the tightest of all of them, but even that looked more athletic than sexy.
By and large, these teens aren't sexualized. Which, unfortunately, is so so rare for media. Shows have been sexualizing teens since like, forever I guess, so it was just really nice to watch a show where the kids are in 'high school', but they're allowed to be KIDS

I'm reblogging this again because since reblogging it, I've been getting a lot of bots again. Why is this happening?! Aaahh
saw new users saying they don't block bots bc "they inflate follower count 😌" and "what's the point" like who's gonna tell them (1) Noone cares about follower count and you can't even see it and (b) You have to bc they are using you to legitimize their dodgy links. They don't care about your aesthetic cat pics and lightning mcqueen fanfiction. They are using you.

I think videos have a time and a place.
I like videos for some things but sometimes just don't feel like watching a video or aren't in a location where I can listen to audio.
While some things are suited to video format, some things are just better suited to text format.
Genuinely can’t stand the new favouritism towards video format. You want me to spend a whole two minutes listening to someone say out loud a paragraph I could read in 20 seconds?
(This is about tiktok. I hate tiktok.)
