Shits fucked.

why are all of those posts with tender quotes about men! shut up about them! what about when virginia woolf wrote "i never seem to run out of tenderness for you" and vita sackville-west said "oh my dear, i can’t ever be clever and stand-offish with you: i love you too much for that. too truly." and girl in red sang "i will follow you home, although my lips are blue and i'm cold" and natasha ngan wrote "she makes me feel reappeared. reimagined. her touch shapes me, draws out the boldness that had been hiding in my core." and oh pep! sang "my baby talks at a mile a minute, she sings like a church with a choir in it" and audre lorde said "there is, for me, no difference between writing a good poem and moving into sunlight against the body of a woman i love."

or when edna st. vincent millay said “someday i shall write a great poem to you, so great that i shall make you famous in history, or dedicate a book to you, or collect a fortune & die & leave it to you” and when sarah waters said “i’ve been missing her for so long, it’s come to seem that wanting anything must be only another way of wanting her” and when margaret mead said “i’m lonely for your arms” and when emily dickinson said “i keep wishing for you, keep shutting up my eyes and looking toward the sky, asking with all my might for you, and yet you do not come. i thought of you, until the world grew rounder than it sometimes is, and I broke several dishes”

As an ex-mormon, I’m gonna look the fuck into this. I want nothing to do with the church that shaped so much toxicity about my self image and my sexual orientation.

Ex mormon here - this guy’s legit. The Mormon holds your files for eternity, and when they find out that you’ve moved to a new area, they will send members and missionaries from that region to harass you. I know this sounds like dystopic bullshit, but they followed my father through three moves before he rejoined the church.

Also ex mormon here who used this. It’s a ridiculously helpful service that is incredibly easy to use. They keep you updated throughout the whole process, and it’s totally worth it since the church doesn’t get to keep all your private information and pass it around once you resign :)

Every time I rewatch Parks, and this episode comes on, I get excited solely for this scene. The way Ben gets the phone and dials Tom… I lose it every single time.
