When I first signed up for electrolysis, the clinic owner told me her whole staff is trans. Cool. I assumed that meant trans femmes, since we're the ones who usually need the facial hair removal, so it only makes sense that some of us will go into the business.

Nope! My electrolysis tech is a trans man with a full beard. Huh.

My dad: that's why Jesus invented coffee

Me, face down on the couch: we didn't invent coffee the Muslims did.

My dad: Well, that's why Muhammed invented coffee.

"OH MY GOD WHY ARE YOU SLEEPING ON-"

because I am tired. I am exhausted. I have cared and fretted and cried beyond what sane people should, and if I do not rest my heart, the compassion and empathy I have left will become small and calcified and never grow again. because in a world of infinite injustice, I cannot cry infinitely. the abyss can gaze forever, I cannot win a staring contest, so I must close my eyes. the horrors won't stop, so I need to be able to dream of peace for a little while.

"Maybe it’s because our political discourse swings between deranged and abhorrent on a daily basis and we would like to combat our feelings of powerlessness by insisting on moral simplicity in the stories we tell and receive. Or maybe it’s because many of the transgressions that flew under the radar in previous generations — acts of misogyny, racism and homophobia; abuses of power both macro and micro — are now being called out directly. We’re so intoxicated by openly naming these ills that we have begun operating under the misconception that to acknowledge each other’s complexity, in our communities as well as in our art, is to condone each other’s cruelties."

I'm sorry but "groovy remains groovy even as it changes to cool or rad or gnarly or lit" is a phrase I will carry with me until the day I die.

im being extremely serious, something needs to be done about the brightness of car headlights, its an active public safety hazard. and as far as regulatory measures go, this seems like something with a (comparatively) very easy fix....? yeah conservatives will be all "come and take it" about it but they do that with literally fucking everything bc petulant commitment to making a culture war out of any regulation or mandated changes.

its insane that we've all just collectively accepted that its normal and fine that someone driving a standard sized 4 door sedan will be momentarily blinded by the EYE-LEVEL blue-white LED headlights on the latest model of the suburbitank Pedestrian Pulverizer 3000 or whatever the fuck
