women who aren’t even 30 yet

leonardo dicaprio type of post

not to be a joyless hag but I've started seeing genderbent "yuri" shipping Markiplier and Ryan Gosling and I can't help but think of someone I recently I unfollowed for posting that they have an easier time caring about genderbent versions of boy characters than regular fictional women

and I'm also building some connections to that post I made about reading books by Black women (you know the one) and the people who would respond by saying something akin to "joke's on you, I only read fanfic 😜" as if that were some kind of clever loophole and not a demonstration of the exact thing I was talking about

like yes fandom is about fun or whatever but idk man at what point has your desire for no thoughts head empty uncritical consumption left you splashing around in something that's been blended down to an indistinguishable goo for the sake of avoiding anything remotely challenging. with the thing that's "challenging" here being. you know. giving a shit about women and Black people and like frankly anyone but your shippable white men (and honorary Markiplier).

nice mechanical watches are wasted on wealthy men. a billionaire who will wear it once every four years and leave it in a case the rest of the time doesnt deserve a marvel of engineering like that. *i* deserve a watch like that because i get sexually aroused by clockwork

jokes on you, i have a mechanical watch with transparent windows, which means i can see it ticking, and it (the watch) is just as sexy as you think

you really are out of your league here on all counts. look up the vianney halter deep space resonance and understand my suffering

my beautiful wife, severe thunderstorm warning, is texting me 😌😚😍😍

Good tips.  I can vouch for many of these.  Here are a couple more that have worked for me (U.S.-based): - Get on food stamps before you are actually homeless, if you can.  It’s just less complicated that way, but I have also had good luck just being very straightforward with DHS about my situation.  - The article talks about not paying for storage – I really think your mileage may vary on that one. I paid for a cheap storage unit that I split with my sister for a couple years.  If you really do have things of value that you want to keep, I say do it if you can find a cheap unit.  ALSO, I have low-key stayed in my storage unit.  You can’t do it for long, and depending on the place, it can be sketchy, but it can be done. - National parks and Forest Service campsites.  Yeah there is definitely the whole day-use only thing but there are some that aren’t monitored.  They often have bathrooms, and for me, it sometimes felt way safer being away from people. - Hook up with your local Food Not Bombs.  It’s usually really good food and run by folks who are used to working outside the system.  You might be able to make friends and score a place to live or stay. - When I knew that I wasn’t going to be able to afford rent for the foreseeable future, I bought myself a cheap travel trailer.  600 bucks and I’ve lived in it for almost five years now.  Friends are way more likely to let you live indefinitely in their driveway or on their land than endlessly crashing on their couch.  I do work-trade or pay what I can for utilities.  If your car can’t haul it (mine can’t), rent a U-Haul truck for a day to get it where you need it to be.  Obviously this requires some cash, but if you can swing it, it can really save your ass in the long run. - Make a plan for bad weather – heat waves and cold snaps can kill.  Heat is worse for me where I live, so I make sure to have a list of spots I can escape to.  This is where those national parks can sometimes come in handy, but also think about overpasses, city parks with lots of shade, abandoned buildings.  Know where your local cooling/warming shelters are.  Keep some money stashed away if you can to pay for cheap motel rooms during the worst weather.  If you can split the cost of a room with friends, even better. - Have a few strategically stashed canisters of mace or pepper spray.  - But at the same time, look out for each other.  You don’t have to become bosom buddies with everyone else on the street, but treating each other like humans is both good for your mental and emotional health and also you’ll find that people are often really amazingly generous with their resources and knowledge.

Tbh germ theory DOES sound crazy. Like if you told a regency-era nobleman that tiny creatures lived on the surface of everything and THAT’S what causes consumption, they’d be like “ah, I see you are a lunatic. Would you reside in my hermitage? Rantings and ravings do so amuse my guests”

But if you told a Medieval person this they would probably go "Ah, so when the miasma settles on surfaces it gains evil life. I understand."

Yeah, actually, it would probably be pretty easy to explain germ theory to a Medieval person as tiny evil spirits that live on everything, but they can be purified by soap and water, or by alcohol, because that is why God has granted us those things. And because they can float in the air, if you cough or sneeze after they have infested you, that can cause them to infest others. And when you are sick, the angels God has deputized to defend the bodies of His beloved children are at war with the evil spirits, and, sadly, sometimes they lose, but the best way to help your angels win their battle is to rest, drink plenty (this would probably be small beer in this time period, not water, because the water was also infested), stay clean, and for the sake of God do not allow anyone to let your blood, for the angels need that blood in their war against the evil spirits. Bloodletting is good for some types of illnesses but not the kinds caused by the tiny evil spirits.
