a bottle marked poison

jsyk going away over the weekend (where's the 'do u have plans this weekend' post when u want it!?) so if im quiet that's why lol

Conservative beauty standards are back with a vengeance which means it's especially important to go out this summer with bellies out and bodies unshaved. Also be unapologetically disabled with mobility aids and wearable medical devices and stim toys and ear defenders and all that stuff. You need it. People need to see it. Everyone needs to be reminded that life is unquestioningly more enjoyable when you're not living inside an arbitrary set of rules created by people who are offended by all the wrong things.

interacting with the cool mutual while full of fear and anxiety

one trick to learn (and this is easier when you're older) is that absolutely no one is cool. there is no such thing as a cool person. anyone you think is cool is just anxious about things you haven't learned about them yet

I wish people would stop saying “It’s July. Well done for wasting half a year.” Did you make someone smile in the past six months? Did you stroke a cat or throw a stick for a dog? Did you learn a new fact or teach someone a new joke? Did you laugh, cry, scream or sing in the past six months? Because if so, congratulations for not wasting your time at all.

Happy 10th birthday to this, my post of all time. Glad to have spent the last 10+ years wasting my time on tumblr with you all 💖
