Eros is divine, it makes for an endlessly renewed font of desire, worship, ambition, creativity.

Most people have too little

As Kat suggests—the hard part isn’t that you have haters, but all the people you thought were friends who go along with the anti-you campaign because it’s easier than arguing

A bunch of people asked me to write about being canceled in 2017, so for the first (and hopefully last!) time, I blogged about it at LENGTH

Rodin clearly just wanted to sculpt this revealing pose (taken from can-can dancers, rumor has it) and applied the titles "Despair" and "Iris" rather randomly

Anyway, I'll try it next time I have a moment of Despair

[Kayla @caryatis]

@moldbugchaser This is why we have to all collectively agree to stop. Or like charge $5 per thank you so that you only say it when you’re sincerely motivated to express gratitude

[Kayla @caryatis]

@Aella_Girl Because you're weirdly tolerant of brutal honesty, and most people hate being brutalized

@Raven9_v04 @lizisamused @asparagoid There are at least 6 neighborhood cats that roam around where I live. There's never been a gun fired in this neighborhood since I moved in 5 years ago. Americans don't live in a Western movie

[Kayla @caryatis]

@Raven9_v04 @lizisamused @asparagoid This is a lie

[Kayla @caryatis]

Sometimes i think about how many years of my life i would get back if we all agreed to stop saying “thank you”

the rationalist mind cannot comprehend decorum and social grace as anything but false

[Kayla @caryatis]

@lydialaurenson @moldbugchaser @credenzaclear2 What are the alternative ideas of decorum?

[Kayla @caryatis]

@Romy_Holland Don’t hurt people’s feelings. Yes. Unless you really have to. This is kindergarten-level stuff.

@rosejara1 Men will whine that women act crazy and then crown the crazy og bpd who publicly cheated on them empress of France

@SH2F088 Nope

[Kayla @caryatis]

Outside magazine has a pretty cool discussion of the theory that women tolerate running fatigue better than men (which could explain their better relative performance at ultramarathon distances).

"The differences here are pretty stark. Women demonstrate far better durability: they hardly slow down at all in the uphill time trials, while men get progressively slower. In the final time trial, men are ten percent slower on average, while women are only one percent slower."

(but see reasons to believe this might not be apples-to-apples)

@BecomingCritter It’s like blaming the man when there’s blood on the sheets

@credenzaclear2 "this thing that you have to live with and through every day? hmm you are probably not aware of it, so let me remind you of it in a very cruel way because I already got what you don't have" wow thank you, very helpful
