Losing my mind at this poor girl in Argentina who found a kitten on the side of the road and adopted it only to find out it was a freaking jaguarundi. Look at that fucking thing. That's a whole ass kiddy cat

ultimately the truth about frankenstein is that we are all grotesque amalgamations of the best and worst parts of everyone who came before us. and sometimes the people who are supposed to love us because of and in spite of this will not. and we can kill them with hammers for that. and i think that’s beautiful

hate how almost every portrayal of a lesbian on mainstream tv is like literally just a straight woman who dates women. the writers clearly don’t care to take Any considerations into lesbian/lgbt culture or what our lives/dating is rly like. like even apart from them all being pretty feminine conventionally attractive white women in their thirties, they are literally always the straightest women you could possibly imagine. what’s the opposite of dykery. The utter dykelessness of these women

My new dude coworker is exactly fine. Significant improvement over the last two dudes we added to the team who were both godawful. I first met him a decade ago and had marked him down points for saying he didn’t believe there was a pay gap between men and women. But since then he’s gotten married and has definitely done some growing.

However. One day he comes in and starts telling me and our other coworker about how someone called him racist on Facebook. “I don’t hate black people!” he said in outrage.

I looked at our actually black coworker who was sitting there ignoring him, staring fixedly at her phone watching a movie. I sighed. He clearly wanted to be reassured by our coworker that he was in the clear.

“Look,” I said, “What that person meant is you have unexamined privelege. White people can be racist without being malicious because they don’t understand what people of color experience. You might have been racist in that moment without meaning to be.”

He did not like this sentiment. He wanted to be told he was a good white boy and forget about it. I desperately did not want to discuss color privelege like a couple of clowns with our black coworker sitting right there ignoring us but he wouldn’t be dropping it any time soon.

So I pivoted to personal experience, “I’m gay, right?” He nodded. “And as a queer person I’ve had people be homophobic without being malicious.”

“How does that even work? If someone’s homophobic they’re a dick.” This from a man who implied all anal sex was a queer act.

“No, see. This one morning at the jewelry store we were setting up for the day and putting jewelry on display and I was listening to my coworker talk about something shitty that had happened to her. Then another dude goes, ‘Oh that’s gay.’ And he didn’t mean it in a shitty way, but it was still blatantly homophobic to equate something being bad with the word gay, right?

“So I made eye contact and just stared at him. He realized he had a gay coworker right there and that his words were hurtful and immediately apologized.

“But he wasn’t trying to shit on me. He was homophobic in that one instance, but he wasn’t trying to be. Being white is the same way sometimes. You’re a dick on accident and you apologize and it was a racist moment that you grow past because it doesn’t define you.”

He turned this over a bit and conceded that it might be true but he didn’t like being called a racist which is bad and I just kinda checked out after that.

When he’d gone away I turned to my Jamaican coworker and said, “You really put up with a lot.”

She snorted and nodded emphatically, adding, “I’m just watching my movie, you can take care of him.”

As penance I entertained him for the rest of shift to let her watch her movie in peace.
