It's raining

i love punishing apps by turning off all their notifications

and the permissions

constantly trying to see the inherent good in people is a humiliation ritual that i continue to willingly participate in

millennials talk about enshittification without lapsing into "everything was better in my day and the children are wrong" challenge

ha! in my friend group this goes more like "things were less bad in my day and the children are fucked"

idk but when i discover new books and music i’m just excited to be alive again. yes a bit dramatic but that’s how i feel when i discover them

why is that dramatic? wonder and discovery and fulfilment are the joys of being alive

we need to start understanding TERFs as the serial sexual harrassers that they all are. obsessing over our genitals and private sex lives completely fucking unprompted. terminal inability to mind their own business when it comes to a stranger’s body. functionally identical to catcallers and gross men that harass women on the street. that shit is creepy and rapey, and we should call it like it is.

and. 3 (three) years have gone between them

i’m giving up personhood to become a full-time abstract concept

To my 25 - 35 year olds, you've reached the age where people around you are starting to give up on themselves because they think it's too late. Don't let that energy rub off on you. It's not too late.

i don’t feel like debating that topic much farther bc truthfully if it comes down to “women will lose to men in every sport bc they don’t have as much testosterone!!!!!” my elite feminist response is honest to god “ok we will lose with honor as equals instead of having our own special Easy Mode Female category so we can win amongst ourselves” like i’m sorry i just can’t be persuaded. i’m a brick wall. i want co-ed sports

i bring a sort of “women can lose at some sports against men if it means being regarded as equals” vibe to the debate that “testosterone objectively increases performance” people don’t really like

Cats that are REALLY human socialized and tolerant of touching are so funny. You can just grab them and pick them up. Boneless. Squish their little face in your hand. They love it. But what's funnier is when you get used to one of those and then absentmindedly pet a normal cat weirdstyle and they're like MYAGH?? & you're just like ykw you're right my bad girl

Grabbing a cat and kind of wiggling it back and forth will have wildly varying results depending on if the cat is normal or boneless

the thing is, my cats are highly socialized to us. and no one else. so the same cat will produce very different results depending on who's grabbing (or trying to, 3/4 will not be seen by strangers)

when you see your little kitty walking toward you at a leisurely pace and say "hi baby!" bc you're excited to see her and she starts trotting a little bit faster 'cause she's excited to see you too. that's what life is all about i think

Nonchalantly gasping for air on the bus I almost missed

not like all the passengers and the driver didn't see me run at full speed down and across the road while they calmly took the roundabout, so
