its probably a normal sign for the economy that all of my adulthood fantasies are like "imagine having your own kitchen living room and bathroom to decorate" "what if i could get on a train" "maybe one day i could purchase a sturdy pair of shoes" "i should save and invest in a single bicycle"

My job pay so bad currently im trying and failing to save up for a helmet and bike lock for the bike I have 😭

Here's my real tip for anyone moving out on their own for the first time; when you buy a set of measuring cups or spoons buy ones that have the measurement engraved into the cup/spoon and do NOT buy ones where it's just printed on. Because that ink/paint/ect. can rub off and then you'll have a bunch of useless little spoons and cups you have to get rid of bcs they no longer say what size they are. Don't ask me how I know, just trust me that you wanna buy engraved ones.

Also: mandolins are evil and will claim blood if allowed. You might still want one for slicing stuff easier, but always keep in mind the mandolin is evil when using it

when we started talking about getting a small-breed dog I was like, "I will NEVER turn into one of those people who treats their little dog like a doll or an accessory by forcing them to dress up in ridiculous outfits. Dogs HATE that. They should get to be DOGS, and that means not having to wear anything but a HARNESS and being FREE to ROLL in the MUD." and then I adopted a dog who throws a fit if you try to take him for a walk without letting him pick out a bow tie first. a dog who loves wearing pajamas so much that I'm about to spend a disgusting amount of money on several sets of linen ones for summer. a dog who watches me wave at him to follow me through a mud puddle and just stands there blinking up at me like, "are you fucking serious? and get my paws wet?"

Terriers are a breed meant to hunt, but whom the moment they taste of earthly comforts will never again return to such roots

The modern American Democratic Party needs more rednecks and hillbillies to succeed, I am so serious. They need to do more to target rednecks and hillbillies and break down their white collar elitist image Fox News has been harping on. It’s crazy, it’s not true, the Republican Party is doing everything in its power to ensure the rich get richer and the poor and middle class get poorer but if they keep hearing “GOP is the party of backwoods middle Americans who work for a living.” type of slop slop and they turn on the television and see Gavin fucking Newsome, they’re going to keep voting red mindlessly.

And the thing is you see the mainstream candidates the Democratic Party is putting out and you’re like “Oh yeah, that is definitely a guy who’s parents went to college, that is a person who has never had to eat cup ramen to survive, there is nothing about that person that seems relatable.” if they’re going to keep pumping out ‘safe’ moderate white guys, they need to choose ones who look and sound like actual human beings.

wasn't that the guy from maine with the nazi tattoos

the issue is that the actual "working class everymen" right now would want to murder trans people for existing, hates lgbtq people in general in fact, & thinks lesbians just havent met a "good enough man" yet. oh also they're virulently racist. like i see where ur coming from but right now basically everyone outside the cities in America are kind of doomed

Hey, I think you might be massively classist and the exact reason that the Democratic Party and leftist movements keep failing to sway large swaths of the population. I say this as a transgender person from rural North Carolina. We exist everywhere and we have friends and family who love us. Automatically assuming that everyone who isn’t from a city and is working a blue collar job is racist, transphobic, homophobic and irredeemably stupid and backwards is a great way to make sure they stop listening to you.

I have one of these and I keep it in my IT toolkit because that teeny little screwdriver is the right side for laptop casings, but because it lives inside a large object it’s harder to misplace than a standard tiny screwdriver. Also because the look on a client’s face when you bring out a brass hammer to fix their laptop is absolutely wild.

i know tamsyn doesn't think harrow is conventionally attractive but i base my belief system on what's funniest and what really makes me chuckle is the idea of harrow being chronically pretty faced. like walking around drearburh with a DEADLY face card under all the paint. BEAUTIFUL deep dark eyes, canonically thick eyelashes and very clear skin. bone structure sharp enough to KILL SOMEONE. the ninth house hasn't served like this since the days of matthias nonius. and that fool nav is so completely blinded by rage and resentment that she literally has no clue

ted bundy was dumb as hell jeffrey dahmer was dumb as hell dennis rader was dumb as hell every serial killer was dumb as hell. dumb and stupid. stupid and dumb.

people will call rap overstimulating and then listen to hyper pop

i cant talk to people who hate on entire genres about music they have a sinister aura that i do not want to interact with

Even if it's Country?

yes hot take the hatred of country music as a whole will often come down to classism i love country music i love bluegrass i love folk and writing off a whole genre or type of music is crazyyyyyyy

hey, I was just at "things got better" island and everyone there is talking about how excited they are to meet you

Hey yeah so this post literally kept me alive for like 6 months. Thank you. And OP is so right. Everyone on this island became my best friends. And guess what? Now they can't wait to meet *you* and they talk about you every single day.
