I'm a Lonely Nerd

Lots of gendies will agree that gender roles are sexist they just fail to connect that to what they’re doing. They think they’re defying gender roles by ascribing to different ones. They think they’re abolishing gender by creating more. They fail to understand that they’re reinforcing the same constructs that oppress them.

This is why I can’t handle them saying “FUCK GENDER ROLES!”. Their entire identity is based in following them, they gender everything while claiming to be progressive, I don’t understand how they don’t see it… I saw the connection when I was 12.

it’s funny how when a right winger hears I’m a gender abolitionist they are like “oh so you’re an insane radical leftist trying to undo the natural order of things. You hang out with the crowd with dyed hair and pronouns” and liberals hear I’m a gender abolitionist and are like “oh so you’re an insane far right extremist trying to maintain a cisheteronormative society. you’re in bed with trump voters”

when i don’t like a female character on a tv show i treat it like homework. like i know she’s right. i’m the problem. i just have to try harder

i love all the people saying they blame male writers. you know her heart. you know this isn’t her. it’s a man

#the number of times i have seen A Cute Object#only to turn it around and there's a WORD on it#for NO REASON

I saw an interesting video about Rae Dunn by Swell Entertainment, if that is relevant to your interests.  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=REElEEJZncI&ab_channel=SwellEntertainment

my cat hates taking his pills. the only way we can get him to eat them is to turn it into an elaborate pantomime - we take the packet out of the cupboard slowly and hold it up, saying “oh!! what’s this? what’s this? a TREAT? a TREAT for louis????” while making surprised faces. we offer him a pill… then, before he has a chance to sniff it, we wag our fingers at him and replace it in the packet so it becomes a Tantalising Forbidden Mystery. we continue doing this until he’s so confused and excited that he will eat the pill as fast as possible, just so he can find out what it is before we can take it away from him again. as soon as he’s eaten it he looks utterly disappointed and betrayed, like a child who just ate a delicious sweet only to find it was a chocolate-coated brussels sprout. it never gets old

Op this is the funniest thing I’ve ever read

50 First Doses

You trick Louis? You trick Louis like a common fool? Oh jail, jail for owners ONE MILLION YE-oh what’s this? A treat?

women burning things with bad memories attached to them as a form of therapy? powerful. iconic.

i have been arrested for burning a man

I was looking up some female stand-up comedians to have fun during the holidays and I found this podcast, with Taylor Tomlinson and Whitney Cummings. They’re really funny and they talk freely, but more than funny, I found they were doing a good analysis of a lot of messed up things in het relationships; they discuss birth control, mental illness medication, how m*n act and what they expect after women get engaged to them, why they broke their engagements, stuff they deal with in dating, it’s pretty interesting! I found it engaging and they’re both funny and laugh a lot. I rarely find female-only podcasts, so I’m leaving a link!

deleted all my social media apps so now sometimes i just open my phone and scroll thru google drive for a bit and then put it back in my bag
