"men, women, and they/thems" man if only there was a word for people who dont identify exclusively as binary men or women. damn. if only

i have people commenting and saying the things they say to include everyone but theyre still dividing people into gender categories, like saying "ladies and gentleman, and (everyone else)" and its like ok, thats probably better than just saying they/thems, but maybe I'm just southern but idk why people cant say "yall" and "folks" and other words that are made to refer to a whole group without just dividing everyone by gender. maybe in a more professional or formal setting, "esteemed guests" or just "everyone". "people"? idk why we need to do this at all. like there can be funny ones but there are words specifically the purpose of referring to a group of people of mixed/unknown genders

we need to bring back public hatred for paparazzi. I’m so tired of actors defending themselves against assholes with cameras and being smeared as egotistical divas. they’re glorified stalkers who get paid to harass people. end of. the things these freaks get away with would send normal people to prison but we’re supposed to think it’s okay just bc they’re paparazzi. they SHOULD get shut down for being openly misogynistic. they SHOULD get told off and reported for following someone to their private residence to doxx them. they SHOULD face charges for just about running people over in their pursuit of the next hot celeb. this is not normal. and, actually, these people DO deserve to get punched sometimes.

everyone kept leaving the teams meeting without saying anything which made me sad for some reason and i was the last person in there because i wanted to tell the host thank you for everything and she was just like. You’re a humanities major, aren’t you

immediate. btw. right after i said thank you. just instantaneous. zero surprise when i said yes

#those workers are not being paid enough to enforce this and it was a slightly funnier day at work

I saw an otter briefly hop on top of a babirusa at the zoo and when the stranger standing next to me heard my camera shutter click he turned to me with this look of immense relief, put his hand to his chest, and said in a dead serious tone “oh thank christ someone caught that on film”

god if there was a book of forbidden spells I wouldn’t even hesitate

i am a dog locked in a car in the summer. the a/c is not on. i do not have water. no music is playing

can’t wait for whatever bullshit happens tomorrow #mybullshit

Good rule of thumb is the more people of different backgrounds you know, the harder it becomes to dehumanize them, so its a really good thing to meet people from different backgrounds, and anyone telling you that people from x culture or y country you really shouldnt interact with probably dont have your best interest in mind
