(never degraded someone before) you have your mother's cruelty. and your father's cowardice.

Just had to do this again so I would like to remind everyone of girl code that if you see a girl being cornered by some creepy guy giving pained smiles in a conversation she cannot get out of, go up to her and talk to her. If its dire enough you can act like you're already friends but most of the time you can just go and talk to her, give her any distraction and a reason to walk away or for the man to go away. For men if you see this go up and start a conversation with the man, if you can put yourself between him and the woman he's harassing and give her the chance to leave. Do not watch in silence. Do something about it.

An Incomplete List of US LGBTQ+ Helplines

I just saw the news that the Trump administration is ending funding for The Trevor Project as a 988 Lifeline partner.

First and foremost, the Trevor Project is not shutting down. They can be reached directly at 1-866-488-7386, or by texting START to 678-678. What is shutting down is the ability to call 988 and be directed to the Trevor Project’s LGBTQ+ youth lifeline.

However, I wanted to share the various LGBTQ+ helplines that I have bookmarked anyway, because god forbid one of these incredibly vital organizations DOES shut down, I want y’all to know what other support is out there.

Please feel free to add additional helplines in reblogs if I’ve missed anything!

you cannot headcanon your way out of overt thematic structures on which the entire narrative is built

I support the "fiction isn't real so nothing matters" mindset but tbf at a certain point it can tip over into "the curtains are just blue" territory

the idea of a clutch purse is nightmarish to me. the whole point of bags was so we could escape the torment of holding things. and now u gotta hold a bag.

my roommate got amongus ejected from a polycule a few years back and shes always told the story as "i started argung with one girlfriend so she manipulated my other girlfriend to turn against me." and while i dont know how true to life that version of events is i do greatly enjoy imagining the polycule equivilent of the kings evil advisor whispering in their ear grima wormtongue style. its got a flair to it.

we need to invent a spray tan-style treatment but instead of spraying you with tanning stuff it sprays you with heavy duty spf. and it lasts a few weeks so that way you can just get your spf spray a few times a summer instead of having to spend 10 minutes every day getting sticky and oily and making sure the sunscreen is all rubbed in. how do i get on shark tank

Embrace your divine feminine energy by taking part in traditional women's hobbies & interests like experimenting with radioactive materials, developing mathematics, programming computers, piloting aircraft and practicing marksmanship.

Was just informed that "any sufficiently deep enthusiasm is indistinguishable from academic rigor" and hoo boy we are really in a crisis of anti-intellectualism.

i’m sick and tired of people pretending that burger isn’t delicious just to clown on americans. america deserves the ridicule, but why’s burger catching strays? burger did nothing wrong

drinking water when I have a headache should give instant relief. it should go away. what's even the point of drinking water if it can't do that

[inkshine]

hate when I'm trying to just take a normal drink but it turns out I'm thirstier than I thought so I end up gulping it down like a goddamn cartoon characer. the indignity of water lust.
