I’m old enough that people below a certain age look practically like infants to me. He was ADORABLE at that age in Skins. Pinch his cheek cute. But I feel mostly the same about the rest of the cast.

I try to avoid aggressively anti-women areas of the internet but I’m pleased to see more people taking this seriously and listening for once. I feel like five years ago I would be hearing a lot more crap from Gamergate bro types.

I love seeing people going “Blizzard is terrible! I’m going to play League of Legends!”

I live in perpetual terror of bringing home a variant to my father who is on immunosuppressant drugs. I’m his only caretaker. Without me he’d be in a home so I can’t even get the seasonal flu. He doesn’t just ‘get sick’, a cold can land him in the hospital.

In a way I appreciate my fatness. It has significantly reduced the number of catcalls and harassment but there are still creeps who fetishize it or people who feel the need to tell me how disgusted they are by my fatness.

My father mentioned this story to me and it instantly made me go “That sounds fake AF” so I looked it up and quickly discovered that it’s 99% likely to have been bullshit!

I feel legitimate fear when I see him. I don’t fully understand it, maybe it’s because I spent some time in mental institutions with people who had the exact same energy as him who could go from happy and cheerful to violent in the blink of an eye.

I don’t understand how a person can hear “Such and such is raping and molesting people.” and go “I’ll get to it when I get to it.” What kind of horrible person do you have to be to NOT jump up and want to get to the bottom of such abuse!?

Utah... a lovely state I rather never step foot it. I wouldn’t feel very safe given my status as a transperson, who is also pagan. Sure my white skin would afford me a LOT of protection but I also read as a butch lesbian to a lot of people and have received some aggression because of how I look. And that’s in Arizona…

I’m not too into the idea of teaching cops the same way we teach soldiers. A soldier going into a war zone is 100% right in expecting to be fired upon and being in life threatening danger. “Killology” taught cops the exact same thing but about fucking neighborhoods across America.

When I was a toddler my family went hiking, we went up a mountain trail (a very easy one I’ve hiked several times since) all the way up to a waterfall (we’re in a desert so NEAT! WATER!). I was put down so they could cross the stream and being a top heavy toddler when I looked down I fell. Face first. Off the…

The fact that my psychiatrist knew NOTHING about ADHD made me realize that a lot of doctors know specific things, but not others. Mine specialized in addiction (because that’s the only one my state would send me too and I had no choice. Yes they lump everyone with addiction issues with everyone with mental health…

When I was a tween through my teens my periods were so bad I would vomit and black out from the pain. My brother learned first had that period pains weren’t a joke when I passed out in front of him and he couldn’t wake me right away.

I wasn’t even FAT as a teen but boy howdy did I feel like a goddamned land whale because of how our culture treats weight in relation to women. My mother of course didn’t help.

Americans have had issues with Catholics SPECIFCALLY because they felt that they’d be loyal to the Pope first and America second.

I’m one of those childfree people who is childfree primarily because I don’t like kids. I’m also autistic, sound sensitive and very mentally ill. Ignoring the fear of passing along all my issues I can barely take care of myself. I mean that financially (I can’t hold down a job) but also in the day to day functions. I…

It’s a little horrifying how people will vote for Republicans because they’re terrified of paying slightly more taxes, despite Republicans constantly pushing horrific agendas. They literally care more about their money than the lives of their fellow people.

I’ve never been stung, but my father and eldest brother are allergic to bees. My father is also allergic to penicillin and so am I so it’s entirely reasonable for me to worry about being allergic to bees.

I would like to protest that being ‘not super thin(impossible cut for men)’ isn’t a fault.

Their stuff isn’t even slightly overpriced but astonishingly overpriced. Occasionally I’ll see something and go ‘Oh that’s not bad looking...’ then see the price tag and go ‘This stuff is way too cheap for those prices.’
