this duck LOVES pink drink

i had a dream that there was like a revival of the man vs bear debate but instead it was "would you rather be alone in a woman's bathroom with a random trans woman or jk rowling?" and everyone picked the trans woman and jkr crashed out on twitter because of it

so many amazing words in the english language. you have clandestine and precarious and serendipity and iconoclast and then you also have staunch and sludge and slurp and smudge

"these researchers published a paper on something that literally any of us could have told you 🙄" ok well my supervisors wont let me write something in my thesis unless I can back it up with a citation so maybe it's a good thing that they're amplifying your voice to the scientific community in a way that prevents people from writing off your experiences as annecdotal evidence

Arugula is some crap they found on the ground for real

I told myself that if I ever need anything to paint I should pick the first photo I see on my dash and paint it and this was the first one so I committed.

Well you see minors under 25 years old should not be allowed to get gender reassignment surgery because what if they go to the clinic but instead of giving them a normal penis the nurses mess up and give them the evil penis. That's irreversible

really need a scene in the broken cage of jean being unable to look at anyone or anything but jeremy during a game. jean sitting on the sidelines as jeremy does his thing on the court: all guts and instinct and no sure strategy. let us see what it’s like to watch jeremy knox on an exy floor thru jean moreau’s eyes. tell me more about how he darts and ducks and shoots. pls.

but let us also see the way jeremy interacts with the team. let us see the way jeremy claps xavier on the shoulder and asks “are you ready?” with such unabashed pride. show us jeremy running his hand over cody’s buzzed head as they exchange grins. tell us about jeremy fist bumping laila and then turning to wave alongside her at cat and jean as they sit out during that half. tell me what jeremy’s bleached hair looks like sparkling under the lights. tell me how the shadows make his dimples pop.

tell me, jean— how kids come running up to jeremy excitedly during breaks. how easily he kneels down to be on their level. tell me how soft jeremy’s brown gaze is as he gives them autographs with the most lopsided smiley face beside his name. i need to know what he looks like when the cameras are still rolling but he barely knows it. i need you to tell me the way he shakes hands with older fans and appreciates their praise and good givings. tell me it all.

i need him to tell us and then make sure he locks in all this knowledge for himself. why?

because once upon a time david wymack said to jean moreau: “if someone is looking for a role model, wouldn’t you rather they chose jeremy over riko?” and jean said no.

in the broken cage i need to see jean taking those words back. i need to see the moment he watches jeremy from all angles and says “yes.”

2015? that wasnt even that long ago. it was only... [doing the math] ohhh. ohhh..... oh dear...

people born in 2000 should be like 12-14 now. but they’re not. that’s how fucked up our world is now

[yourverse]

i think it’s funny when someone acts really angry about something you say online. could be whatever. and you check their profile and go. oh wait. you’re literally 14. nevermind. talking about this with you is like 100% useless. and they go “my age has nothing to do with this” like actually your age has everything to do with this. when you are 14 literally everything is influenced by how fucking 14 years old you are.

it is so important that you are a little bit ugly. please get comfortable with having unplucked eyebrows and nonexistent jawlines and wrinkles. let your blue hair grow out into an uneven pale green and your clothes be old and mend them and modify them until they’re unique to you. wear lipstick which doesnt compliment your skintone and mismatched outfits which went out of fashion 5 years ago. be a little bit too loud and a little bit too passionate and as weird as you can be because oh my god there is nothing more disturbing to me than perfection. beauty is manufactured and sold to us and you need to realise that you are a fucking animal to live a joyful life I am so serious. you cant obsess over aesthetics forever please just live messily and make your body your home however you please.

if you dont do it for you, do it for all the teenagers who will see u in the street and know that they are not obligated to be attractive
