I always felt I couldn't possibly be upset about dying to an alien monster because proof of otherwordly life is exactly what it'd take for me to die happy

One of thee most fucking frustrating feelings as a disabled person is having to remind people in your life “ hey, still disabled!” when they forget and suggest you do things that you physically cannot over and over again

Face twists with bravery as a chill runs through the air We have to find it.

PSA if you are a wheelchair user with a partner who pushes your chair sometimes, you NEED to make out with your partner sloppy style in public so that people know ur together. If you dont do this your partner will be mistaken as your support worker for the rest of your life. Able bodied ppl actually cannot fathom wheelchair users and disabled people being in LOVE so you really need to wave it in their face

Disabled people can be complete and utter assholes btw. They can have the absolute worst opinion ever and that doesn’t not give you the right to speculate on the validity of their disability. Disabilities aren’t some god given gift only granted to those with pious hearts or some shit. Anyone can be disabled, no matter what horrible takes they may have.

The reason that leftists can’t get anyone to mask even a little bit is because people care more about looking hot than being nice or woke. I literally don’t think an appeal to morals or rationality basically ever works in any situation like. At all. But especially not here. Your only real option is to make people feel part of an exclusive and desirable club. I think people just have to halt production on Infographics and focus everyone’s energy on getting hunter schaefer or Sophie thatcher or charli or even Addison Rae to be photographed in an n95

idk i always kind of roll my eyes at all those posts that are like “people used to be ugly in movies” like….. well☝️i don’t think that’s true. i think male actors have always had more leeway to look a bit imperfect. we’ve had average/weird looking male actors in every generation, including this one. but people have always needed to be “hot” for movies. and they did crazy shit for it!! marlene dietrich getting teeth extracted to hollow out her cheeks, carole lombard undergoing her (non-cosmetic) facial reconstruction without anesthesia because they thought it would look better, etc ad infinitum. do you know the kinds of diets they had women on to keep them skinny…. not to mention beauty standards for women of color tryna be in movies. like there’s a reason the three biggest black actresses of classic hollywood decades were josephine baker, lena horne, and dorothy dandridge: all pretty lightskinned with smaller mouths and noses -> approximating whiteness (no shade i love these women sm). i think the difference Today is that there are simply way more procedures you can get done since cosmetic medicine has evolved so much. so people can change more of their face with better and more reliable results than they could in the 1930s. point being that people have definitely always needed to be conventionally attractive to be in movies but given the physical scope of what could be conceivably changed about your appearance there was simply more diversity in like facial structure and features
