Despite popular, neuro-normative belief: I am not happier when I'm forced out of my special interest flow states to socialize with folks find my interest is silly, trivial, or boring.
I'd much rather play with my interest than pretend I don't have it just to make others like me.
I just think it would be better for everyone if the people who make adhesive for maxi pads and the people who make adhesive for bookstore price stickers switched jobs
idk who needs to hear this but THE POINT OF REUSABLE WATER BOTTLES IS TO HAVE VERY FEW OF THEM. LIKE 1 OR MAYBE 2. BECAUSE THEYRE REUSABLE. SO U DONT NEED A BUNCH OF WATER BOTTLES. BECAUSE U REUSE THEM.
It bugs me when people make style about body type because it makes some people assume they can't look good. You may decide to want a certain body type for whatever reason—I don't care either way. But style is not the same as body type.
@bigdybbukenergy Average is 3 days for me, but I also got more severe cramps, more severe and longer pms, pains in places I didn’t know could ache, heavier mood swings, the list goes on…. Would happily go back to bleeding 5-6 days when I had barely any other problems.
@dying_lava@fatfabfeminist YES! I started to resent poetry, because this is how we approached its analysis in school and I couldn’t just make a case for what I saw in it? Wasn’t the point to learn how to think about it critically? If it wasn’t in the answer key, it was wrong. 😑
@autienelle I think I would like poetry more, if school hadn’t drilled into me, that there is one and only one correct academic interpretation. Why does the blue door HAVE to symbolise depression, maybe the author‘s favourite color was blue? But nooo, suggesting alternatives was impossible.
My “straight” ass growing up:
Ugh, romance media?? 😒 No thank you, this is ridiculous anyway, so unrelatable. It just gives me the ick 🤢
My queer, aroace ass now:
Uuuhh, queer romance and longing and flirting?? 😍 Just kiss, you fools! 🥰 More, more, more! ✨
Heard joke once: man goes to doctor. Says he's depressed. Says life seems harsh and cruel. Says he feels all alone in a threatening world where what lies ahead is vague and uncertain. Doctor says, "Treatment is simple. Great clown Pagliacci is in town tonight. Go and see him."
God, American Christians want to be the victim so badly.
Criticising the cherry-picking of bible verses to uphold homophobia is apparently christophobic, because their personal belief doesn’t affect anybody??? 🤡
