Ok @cloakered if you want my honest answers if kill myself isn't an option:

kill 10 matts or kill 1 j: Kill 1 Jay

ok kill 100000000 matts or kill 1 j: KILL 100000000 MATTS. MATT IS GREAT BUT THAT'S WAY TOO MANY (OVER 10 TIMES MORE THAN HUMANS CURRENTLY ON EARTH)

kill 1000000 matts or kill 1 baby j: The answer here is still just "Man." I don't know what to say dawg

"#I want to keep my last name but I also want to reflect the commitment I will make#but there is No good way to combine our last names so idk#even hyphenated it’s not fun because their last name in NINE LETTERS LONG"

Take their last name, use yours as a second middle name? It's what my mother did. Alternatively, take their last name as a middle name.

Your mom sounds smart tbh

i dont consider myself a 'fashion guru' by any means but one thing i will say is guys you dont need to know the specific brand an item you like is - you need to know what the item is called. very rarely does a brand matter, but knowing that pair of pants is called 'cargo' vs 'boot cut' or the names of dress styles is going to help you find clothes you like WAAAYYYY faster than brand shopping

what annoys me about explaining evolution to people who don’t think it’s real is that everyone’s idea of how it works seems to be from this

Whereas the reality is far more like

My fellow bitches under 5'5. Whatever the money, do not take a job working at a middle school. A fellow adult tried to put me in detention last month and would NOT give up until I showed her my badge proving Yes, The School Hired Me To Work Here. It's not meant for people our height.

Because of Re: Carmilla, I thought you all would enjoy my edition of Carmilla :

The holes go all the way through, the sides of the book are red, and on some pages the text is colored red just under the holes !

I was so happy when I found it in a little french bookshop specialized in queer texts ❤️

"#who wants to hear about my school’s band director"

-RAISES HAND-

OKAY SO

The current band director is not the one that was band director when I was in school much to the joy of former band members and to the despair of current band members because Mr. C (as we will call him) is absolutely fucking hated by pretty much all his students and a fair number of parents

Since I started working at this high school in August I have heard maybe one good-ish thing about him and A Lot about how he makes the students hate band

(And during our annual fall parade instead of uniforms he had the students wear polos and athletic shorts which 1) weird 2) it’s cold as fuck when that parade happens literally every year and you want children to march playing instruments in shorts ?!?!)

So the week before last he did Something that made a parent FURIOUS and he was called into the principal’s office last Tuesday

Now if you will recall, last Tuesday we also had a bomb threat pretty much the moment school started and we had to evacuate on buses

Guess who evacuated ON HIS OWN and completely abandoned his students? If you guessed Mr. C you would be 100% correct!

To make it worse he is some sort of Significant Other to our nurse who would rather experience medieval torture than abandon a student in their time of need

Last I heard Mr. C was suspended but I suspect there will be too much uproar if he comes back so I think he’s bones

asking people to be mindful of others when sharing a communal space (especially one you cannot just up and leave from) is not selfish or misanthropic. come on now

Ok so, I just remembered how people in the comments of a tiktok video were being assholes, and I want to rant now :3

The video showed two wheelchair users at a train(?), who had just arrived to their stop to find nobody was there with a ramp so they could leave the train. One of them blocked the door so it wouldn't close, and this lasted for 15 minutes. The train was stopped for said 15 minutes. There was a button by the door, that said that it'd contact the driver when pressed. It didn't. People offered to go find the driver, and they came back with the news that there were no people in the platform to put the ramp. In the end, passengers had to go out, and place the ramp themselves, before the train could carry on. The wheelchair users had warned they were coming, and asked to have the ramp put there so they could get down. The platform turned out to have workers, they all just ran away because they'd never encountered the situation in which they needed to do this simple task.

Because of the workers' negligence, the train was forced to stop for 15 minutes.

Everyone's comments?

"Why did they block the doors and stop the train? So selfish" Selfish were workers who refused to do their job.

"What if someone had needed to get to their stop urgently? They shouldn't have stopped the train" It wasn't the disabled people's fault, it was the workers who were negligent.

"Why didn't they just wheel themselves down those steps?" They shouldn't have to risk their (expensive) chairs just because people didn't do what they were paid to do.

"If I had been in that train I would've been pissed, how dare you stop it" And you probably wouldn't have even thought about fixing the problem yourself, would you?

"Entitled assholes" Ok I'll leave you stranded in a train with everyone who could help you get down outright refusing to. Let's see who's an entitled asshole now.

If someone fights for accessibility, as much as it might be a bother for you, you do not have the right to be mad at them. If someone fights for accessibility, it is exclusively the fault of a world catered exclusively for able-bodied people.

So next time you think, "hey the consequences of these disabled people fighting for their rights bother me", instead of blaming them for this, help them solve the issue. This way, next time they will not have to fight at all.

Able bodied people, go out and fight for a fucking accessible world if you're not an asshole.
