cannot overstate how devastating it is to me that i basically have to decide between living openly as a transgender woman and being allowed near children

Like for real I've been wondering this for a while. I'm pretty sure not everyone has a pyjamas for every night of the week and presumably noone is putting worn pyjamas back in the drawer. Where are you guys putting them?? Under pillow?? Just strewn about bedroom???
#for pjs i throw them on the side of the bed i get out of. on the bit of bed right before the pillow.#i sometimes have Day Pjs (leggings and a oversized shirt for lounging) and those go over the back of my desk chair at night#when i had a little rug by my bed i used to just leave my pjs in a heap on my slippers 😅 when i was a kid/teen#and after 3 nights (less in summer) i toss my pjs into the laundry hamper and pull fresh ones and throw them on the bed.#i usually toss the dirty in the morning and wait til evening to pull the fresh so i can track the wear better

nuclear power is impressive until you get up to why. "we use the most precisely engineered machinery ever created to split atoms to release energy" oh yeah how come? "boil water to turn a fan" get the fuck out

i think possibly my favorite moment in the movie was when lois was telling clark that she questions everyone and everything, but he trusts everyone (the “sometimes to a fault” heavily implied). and then she says that everyone he meets, he thinks they’re beautiful. Beautiful.
i love the pause she took before saying beautiful, i love the awe and reverence in her voice for how he sees people, how he sees the world, even if that’s not how she sees it. and more than anything, i love that she used the word beautiful to describe how clark sees people. he trusts everyone, but not all people are trustworthy. or good, necessarily. or nice. and he knows this. but despite this, he also knows that, even with all their flaws or mistakes or worries and fears and “bad” traits, everyone is in their own way BEAUTIFUL. and isn’t that what being human is all about?

i don’t think i’ve seen a single person mention the fact that both lois and clark broke into each other’s apartments in the movie, that’s peak clois behavior

HEEELPPP a six year old just came into the nature center and she had SO many questions. it's pouring rain and nobody else is here but her family so non-stop for an hour she had my full attention. by the end of it i had half my field guides open to various insects and mammals and birds and she just kept going.
she became extremely fixated on bigfoot and asked about the ways people try to prove its existence until I was explaining DNA to her, and she asked such thoughtful questions! she said, "what if someone found a skull they thought might be bigfoot, and there was hair left over. could we use DNA from hair to prove it's bigfoot?" but before i could answer, she said, "but if you don't have a living bigfoot that you KNOW is bigfoot, to take hair from, how could you know this hair from this dead bigfoot is really bigfoot hair?" !!!! what an awesome question!!
so this 6 year old and i started discussing control groups in scientific studies and she was so engaged!!
then the bigfoot talk led to discussions of extinction which led to dinosaurs, and she said, "what I don't understand is why people say dinosaurs are extinct, but they also say that dinosaurs became birds. how could they all be extinct if they became something else?"
she asked questions that really challenged me in that figuring out how to answer them on the fly in a way that's digestible wasn't totally straightforward.
a few minutes ago, the adult with her said it was time to go and get ice cream and she said, "can't you see I have 1,000 more questions to ask? i have to just bloooowwww them all out now so you don't have to answer them later."
I saw my younger self in her so much LOL. They said they're coming back tomorrow and I said, "I won't be here, but my colleague knows even more than I do!" And she said, "Well, I hope so. He's gonna need to."

Want to do something to help stop the tradwife pipeline btw? Include mothers in your feminism. Hold space for women and others who are experiencing pregnancy or motherhood. Listen to their concerns about and unique perspectives on things like universal childcare, bodily autonomy, healthcare. Hold men who disrespect, sexualize, fetishize, shame or harass pregnant women and mothers accountable. Advocate for the right to nurse in public. Advocate for bodily autonomy within the healthcare field. Listen to women and birthing parents who have birth trauma. Listen to women who have undergone things like “the husband stitch”, or medically unnecessary c-sections, or who were given drugs without consent by doctors and nurses violating their birth plan. Advocate for resources to promote an end to the high rates of maternal mortality in the US. Get to know a woman who has children. Get to know the person she is. Know about her likes and interests and hobbies. Unlearn the stigma in your head which makes you see pregnant women as “ruined” or “tainted” and mothers as devoid of individual personhood.

i see posts here about how people are so mortified when they are acknowledged as being a regular customer somewhere that they never return. cowards. the employees at taco bell treat me like a celebrity. like royalty. i am their strange little pet customer who gets traded along as staff comes and goes. they know my car before i even speak in the drive-thru speaker. today i was 2 hours late and she ran over and squealed that she "thought i'd left them!" and that she "made my order with extra love!" and you what, she did
