you gotta give a genuine Thank you to anyone who helps you, to anyone who gives you something, to anyone who has given their time or energy to you, in any way. even if they are expected to. even if they are REQUIRED to. not so much for their sake but for yours. it fixes your heart

I want slower packages delivered by transportation workers who are paid more to work less and I'm not kidding

legitimately my first feminist awakening as a ten year old child was realizing that girls were expected to respect “boy stuff” but boys were never expected to respect “girl stuff”

I don’t know how we’re letting trump get away with all this shit when I truly believe that if you threw a blanket over his head he would think it was nighttime and go to sleep like a bird

Baby bird season is incoming and I’d like to remind everyone that birds do not have a significant sense of smell. Bird parents will not reject birdlets because you have handled them.

If you see smol birbs with few or no feathers on the ground, you can safely put them back into their nest, bird parents will still care for them.

If you see smol birbs with some or most feathers on the ground, please leave them there, as bird parents are probably nearby watching and feeding.

Getting so tired of "aro and ace" or "a-spec" "communities" that exclusively brand themselves with the sunset aroace flag, without a single other a-spec flag in sight. Not that there's anything wrong with the sunset aroace flag itself, I actually think it's super pretty — but it doesn't represent all aromantics, or all asexuals. Hell, it doesn't even represent all aroaces! (Some aroaces who see their asexuality and aromanticism as distinct, rather than a single unit, feel more seen by combinations of the purple ace flag and green aro flag.)

When even I, as an aroace, am personally annoyed by this, I know that for aros who aren't ace, and aces who aren't aro, it must be so much worse. Quit erasing all the non-aroace parts of the a-spectrum. The sunset aroace flag won't disappear; there will still be plenty of aroaces using it because they want to, and more power to them. Please use more general flags if you're making a header or an icon for a server/website/other community, and include ace, aro, alloace, and aroallo flags alongside the aroace flag in your pride posts.

My old landlord sent me a check for money they owed me a mere ten years after I moved out! Dreams really do come true. I'd like to thank whatever other tenant sued them & made this possible

the man who owns and runs the thai restaurant in my town knows me by name. he is one of the kindest and most thoughtful men i know. i started ordering from his place back in january, which was when i got my fibromyalgia diagnosis. back then i was using a walker, had limited mobility in my entire body but especially my hands, and was very visibly in pain. i always ordered the same thing: yellow curry with no meat, potatoes and carrots only (i have texture and other dietary issues). he always made it a point to make sure i could get out the door and carry the food safely. he had his workers package the food so that it was easier for me to open. as i kept coming back and i told him a little bit about my health status, he would always encourage me to keep going. he told me about how the spices he used were good for inflammation and began to edit the recipe just for me so that spices that were even better for fighting inflammation were used. he’d give me extra portions and despite the fact that i would tip every time, i realized later that he never charged my card for them. as time went on and my condition began to get better, especially with the help of a physical therapist, he would make encouraging remarks and tell me how happy he was for me. the day i came in without my walker, he practically jumped for joy, and despite my insistence, he gave me my meal for free that day. i continue to make progress with my conditions and i continue to go to the thai place. this man who does not know me personally and who i hardly know anything about is one of my favorite people. it’s interactions with humans like these that make loving life easier. and his curry really does help my chronic condition. it’s comfort food taken to the next level.
