it’s like this.

if you only have one person in your life that you trust, you probably are always going to turn to that person when something shit happens. as well as whenever something good happens. or anything else. this is not inherently a bad thing, and it’s really beautiful to have someone in your life that you trust so much

but if that person is suddenly busy or going through something difficult themselves or doesn’t have emotional capacity for a while, suddenly there’s a problem. not necessarily through any fault of your own, you don’t have anyone to turn to with as much regularity as you did before

this is true of any kind of relationship. this is true of any kind of coping mechanism, also. the problem is not that you trust that person. the problem is not that you use that coping mechanism. the problem is not even that there’s something wrong with you and that it’s all your fault. the problem is that nothing can be everything

the solution is not to cut off your one trusted person or to cut yourself off from your one trusted coping mechanism. the solution is to do the difficult work of diversifying your life as much as it’s possible for you to do. which is why it sucks so much when external factors prevent you from being able to live a truly diverse life. okay that’s all have a good one

you know you are really being very solipsistic and self-centred right now. the universe is vast and you are not the protgaonist of every story. have you considered that from some prespectives, the radiator is being handcuffed to you?

My friend is trying to name herself, and she's like, "Oh, what's that name that's like marmalade, but it's a name?" and I know she means Adelaide, but I think I can talk her into naming herself Marmalade if I play my cards right here.

Just absolutely astounding to hear the right talk about these medicaid cuts. "it'll only be illegals." "it's only able bodied people who will now have to work" even though 92% of eligible adults on medicaid who can work, do work. "no one who needs it will be affected in any way"

.... The proposed cut is $880 billion over 10 years. The current medicaid budget is $890 billion for 2025. But the government has yet to produce a single drop of evidence of this amount of fraud. No proof. No concrete examples. No actual audit. Just numbers pulled out of someone's ass.

Meanwhile, studies have shown the $880 billion cut will result in at least 13.7 million Americans (not "illegal aliens") losing their coverage and 30,000 American deaths.

Please tell me how that's only illegal immigrants or able bodied people? These cuts will kill American citizens. They'll further destroy our already crumbling healthcare system, especially in rural areas. All to give the rich another tax cut.

What is patriotic about that? If you love your country, you want the best for it's citizens. This is not the best.

Please call your representatives and tell them hands off medicaid. The five calls app makes it extremely easy. It connects you directly to your reps and gives you a call script. Please fight to save American lives.

The US military budget is larger than the military spending of the next nine largest countries combined. We're pumping huge amounts of money to the defense industry as Republicans plan devastating cuts to the social safety net through their budget bill. It does not have to be this way. This is all a policy choice.

and you're telling me the popular ship in the fandom is gideon/harrow and not gideon/dulcinea. that's what i'm given to understand. no one else is melting at gideon saying very genuinely "i don't want you to die". no one else is really really smitten with dulcinea and practically swoons when she talks

one time i told a guy with a huge punisher decal on his car that i loved the punisher but that i'm too scared to have any of his merch because in the current political climate i wouldn't want people to think i support killing police and the man had. no response whatsoever. he was smiling and completely frozen in place. i'd never seen anyone bluescreen that hard

do with this information what you will

Remember: Almost all of us are the descendants of immigrants who fled persecution, or were brought to America under duress, or sought better lives for themselves and their descendants. Politicians who stoke fear and hatred over immigration want you to forget this. Do not.

having anti punitive justice morals sucks because you want to say "man that guy sucks he should get hit with hammers until he dies" but you also want to make it clear you don't think anyone should be put in charge of the 'hit people with hammers until they die" machine.

Your dislike or phobia for certain animals never outweights the animal's right to exist and live, i keep running into this behavior and i don't know why some folks never got to learn that. Who do you think you are
