I hate my life I’m going to [remembers suicide jokes are bad for mental health] Graceland Graceland Memphis Tennessee

I absolutely adore dogs but I think dog haters are (usually) more justified than cat haters wrt their reasoning

two truths a) most romantic place on earth is the city of albuquerque and also the visitation room of a colorado maximum security prison b) there is no romance in the entire state of florida

Tonkatsu sauce. You agree.

What if you’re bad at making mats? Do you just get called AGP?

I don't remember whether this was in Nanda's or Reddy's book, but I remember reading this amusing bit where a hijra woman called another a man (light-heartedly) for not doing the dishes on time, and I just cracked up. "Why didn't you do the dishes? Are you AGP?". We really are the same everywhere.

speaking of hedging, one criticism i always hate that's often levelled against people doing media criticism or analysis is variations on "oh they think all their opinions are correct" yeah i'd hope so--don't understand why someone would hold an opinion they think is wrong! i hate the culture of endlessly qualifying everything you say to mollify an interlocutor who feels like your strongly held opinion is an imposition on their free will and i think nobody ought to bend to it. make your criticisms and points with your fucking chest. if you think you need my permission to disagree with me then you will die my thrall and be buried in my tomb

they don’t teach people with EDs how to actually respond to diet talk because to do so would mean cultivating and embracing rage. you can’t do that within a medico-psychiatric industry that mandates compliance at all costs. I would very much like to start a workshop for channeling & expressing rage, including and especially toward carceral institutions and authorities, for ppl with EDs… like I want to teach you how to terrify your doctor

Genuinely being a self advocate is 99% channelling pure rage

larry is just like me

just saw a pigeon doing the puffed up courtship dance thing to another pigeon, and as he was strutting around he suddenly stopped for a split second to do a very brief preen-peck at his own side, then returned to the strutting around. and i surprised myself by instantly losing respect for the male pigeon in that moment, like come on man i appreciate you had an itch or whatever but how is she supposed to feel special when you're getting distracted by bullshit like that? which on reflection i don't endorse, i mean those are pretty harsh dating norms i'm imposing on these pigeons, from a total outsider perspective, for no reason. probably not all girl pigeons are as uptight about that sort of thing as i would apparently be if i was a girl pigeon, maybe she even found it endearing who knows, i don't know her. it's none of my business really. sorry pigeons.

The 2010s were always about whether or not fat celebrities were "promoting obesity" and NEVER EVER about whether or not skinny jeans were promoting eating disorders. DO NOT let that story get twisted.

don’t ever call me op. you will address me by my full name
