me too! I love my birthday so much, it is completely irrational I have no idea why, I just like that I have 1 day a year I can get away with not doing very much and maybe eat some ice cream for lunch because birthday. so to celebrate I do a party, no gifts no cards no nothing, come to my house, talk w me and eat some…

man yeah I live in france and it is sort of normal for white people to say ‘un noir’. It’s weird to me because if I said ‘a black’ back home in aus I would totally be rightfully called out on my racism. also, the only people I’ve heard in france so far say ‘un noir’ are white. so like the African expats I know refer…

to me it's really telling. it shows that you don't think of your kid as this growing individual person, you think of them like a toy or object that you own. when they do something you don't like it's frustrating because how dare something you own not do as you think they should? it reminds me of little kids who cut…

I remember that! that was actually super cute to me for some weird reason. Like I dunno, little kid logic. The nose bit was gross.

Even if it’s not a stranger, if someone touches me I tense up. So when my (massage loving) parents try to gently give me a massage for no reason I tense up and like jump away. Their massage lady is so lovely and knows me and is so sad I won’t let her try to touch me but. Just no touching, no massages.

I'll trade you superpowers. I'm always awake when the sun's rising, even if I only got to bed an hour before. it's a terrible superpower and might actually spark some supervillainy.

I don't know if Josie could personally sue him, but I'm pretty sure impersonating a reporter, or just plain impersonating someone, to get confidential information is sue-able.

augh. I once had a guy catcall me while holding ( I assume) his 7-ish year old kids hand. pretty sure the kid was a girl too (I dunno,, it was wearing girly clothes? kids all look like amorphous blobs to me). you know, teach'em good and young to harass dem ladies.

okay, so this may sound weird but i'm so happy you're okay. like, that their reaction to seeing you jog is guns out, i'm happy you didn't get stopped or shot or something because jesus.

they’re not?? wth, in Australia you have to write a separate report for each bullet fired or risk going to fucking trial, why aren't your police keeping track of the masses of people they're fucking killing?? (oh wait, I know why, uuuggghh).

I think because SO MUCH of casting is whitewashing. Hunger Games is a good example. The character of Katniss is, in the books, described as having dark skin and hair, contrasting to her pale sister and mother. so in the books katniss is, canonically, not 100% white. But a white actress was hired to play her. And this…

okay so not condoning the racist bullshit at all, but I think if the can is closed it means if your threw it (and a can can be pretty weighty) it's more likely to hit a target/the weight may cause more damage but if you throw an open can the liquid might fall out and not be as damaging? idk, it's 100% racist bullshit.…

let's send abbott to the centre of the sun. I know it won't fix things but it would make me feel better about my country. also w him gone maybe we could convince parliament to stop defunding aboriginal communities, healthcare and education.

Mate, wanting a better quality of living in your own country isn’t being ungrateful. I am Australian and it amazes the attitude that some Americans have. While much of your population is trying to change your country for the better, by advocating for healthcare and living-wage paying jobs, people like you just tell…

I’m having a good day if I don’t need several naps. The lovely old lady who lives down the street is more active than I am and she just had a pacemaker put in. Old people man, they're gonna outlive us.

okay so i’m in paris atm and 1) good. just, good. this is the bridge I take to get to the louvre for school stuff and it is always full of people taking pictures and selling locks and being obnoxious (they block up pathways to take 7 billion pics) 2) eh, it’s not that big of a deal because 2 bridges later there are…

omg u just reminded me of a story that my dad told me about my uncle. back in his youth he lived in this crazy shitty apartment building (post divorce, so he was in that ‘life is hell and other people fuck the world and also my ex wife who cheated on me’ mindset) that housed anyone who could pay rent. and I mean…

on the one hand I understand your point, but on the other not every kid lives within walking distance of their school. my brother and I went to two different schools throughout primary, my brother walked to his while I had to take 2 buses/a 25min car ride. some people go to schools outside of their area because maybe…

you're making me cry oh my god your dad. i'm so happy that this happened and I don't even know u, all the love to you tho.

well i’ll have u know that the moment I saw their precious faces it destroyed any chance men my age have impressing me, so that’s one less straight marriage in the future. dem gays are ruining marriage. /sarc
but seriously, my uncle and his partner have been together about the same amount of time and even if they never…
