essentially all I’m saying is that you need to be less afraid of being a pervert. You have to train and practice the pervert muscles in your heart so they can grow strong. Literally everyone is a pervert about certain things and many people still think they’re perverts for chill regular things like being gay because their upbringing has left them with atrophied senses of sex. We solve both of these problems at once by encouraging burgeoning pervertedness at every step of the way and ensuring people do not feel like they have to hide it under lip service to norms

executive dysfunction is literally like. ive had a random dollar on my floor for two weeks and i dont know when ill fit it in my schedule to pick it up. people dont realize this

when i was a teenager it felt very revolutionary to be cruel to myself. like some kind of slow passive protest against how much everything hurt. i starved myself of sleep and food and tenderness because it felt right. it felt sharp and angry and radical and i wanted to be those things. adulthood is the realisation that the world is already working to cut into you well before you learn how to do it yourself. caring for yourself and others is the real protest

PSA: never discuss private affairs in your DMs, especially contraception and abortion. Social media moguls will absolutely sell you out to the government. There are already cases of people being charged based on evidence in their DMs.

I feel so validated and seen 😭

people with breasts who don’t want to wear a bra aren’t doing anything wrong by going braless and quite frankly their boob situation is none of your business to begin with.

wearing a bra is a personal choice just like wearing any other garment of clothing is. no one is under any obligation to harness their breasts—they are not being “disrespectful” or anything else negative by not wearing a bra. you, however, are being disrespectful if you give people who prefer to go braless shit for doing so.

if you have an issue with it, stop looking at their chest and mind your own damn business. problem solved.

To me, this very much is a mom dragging her child away from danger for a stern reprimanding

“Bro where u at we not supposed to be in heree”

bell hooks mentioned going through a time in her life where she was severely depressed and suicidal and how the only way she got through it was through changing her environment: She surrounded her home with buddhas of all colors, Audre Lorde’s A Litany for Survival facing her as she wakes up, and filling the space she saw everyday with reinforcing objects and meaningful books. She asks herself each day, “What are you going to do today to resist domination?” I also really liked it when she said that in order to move from pain to power, it is crucial to engage in “an active rewriting of our lives.”

Ban on conversion practices in the European Union!

Hello, fellow Europeans! There is this initiative proposed by EU citizens to ban conversion practices targeting LGBTQ+ people. Some countries like Spain, France, and Ireland reached the minimum amount of signatures but we still need about 500.000 signatures for it to go through!

If you're an EU citizen, please sign this form. It takes less than a minute and the deadline is on May 17th, 2025. Non-Europeans, please reblog and spread the word!

When on period:

1. Your feelings ARE valid, but that doesn’t mean you should act on them right now

2. Be extra gentle and caring with yourself

3. Do! Not! Die!

4. Take painkillers, drink water, use some heat and watch something that makes you happy

5. Remember, this too shall pass

WHEN ON PERIOD:

do not crash out

your feelings are NOT valid

do not send that text

don't kill yourself. lock in

do not act on negative emotions until at least 2 days have elapsed
