swifties from massachusetts, how does it feel. to listen to a mid artist,, while living in a mid state. Can You Even Comprehend What High Quality Looks Like
The whole transandrophobia discussion thing is weird bc it feels like it's a bunch of poc and jewish trans people being like "here are my experiences of how specifically being MASCULINE had affected me, and the discrimination and violence I experienced based on that. And here is how that relates to me being a racial/ethnic minority"
And then a few loud white trans people going "ohhh you wanna be oppressed so bad you *slur*. This is why there aren't any poc in your movement it's because REAL poc understand intersectionality"
So it turns out there's a big craft guild organization thing only a few hours from where I live (I saw an ad for their craft fair), and I got like half my holiday shopping done on their website, and the box arrived today! The thing I was most excited to see in person is fragile, though, and it's really well wrapped in bubble wrap and I don't want it to break when I mail it to the friend it's for, so I am not unwrapping it, but oh man the temptation is there lol
I also got myself a little metal bug made of a bottle cap and some wire. It lives on my little corkboard where I put postcards and thank you cards now
Growing up Neurodivergent is learning social cues from Disney Channel and thinking, “I’m not a nerd; I don’t like computers!” And then proceeding to give your friend at school an hour long spiel about why the order Hymenoptera is your favorite order of insects.
a field wolf spider (Hogna lenta) squeezing down her burrow to consume her freshly-wrangled roach dinner in peace
unlike some other wolf spiders that construct burrows, H. lenta seems to be strictly nocturnal and their burrow entrances are well hidden and practically impossible to find. I imagine this helps them avoid the Anoplius spider wasps that are often seen hunting for them during the day.
my toxic trait as a neighbor is when a wasp gets in here i just open one of my doors to the communal hallway until it goes out there, and then i avoid using that hallway for 3-5 business days until enough time has passed that i feel like someone else has probably taken care of it. im delegating 😇
