The OBSESSION with identity is so crazy like the view that when you do something it immediately becomes part of your identity and all the parts of you have to click together to become “person who wakes up early” or “person who reads” no you can literally just do something without restructuring your whole performance of personhood around it. I don’t know what to tell you except that you will never be able to have an entirely unfractured view of yourself or that you will be able to rationalize all the complex parts of yourself into the phrase “person who x” like you should just be doing things without performing them. Or aestheticizing them. Just try different things on and keep what works for you. Otherwise you will never learn and grow!

the moment you start feeling ugly as a woman you need to hit up a local suburban walmart and take a good hard look at the average woman to realize an average woman is not serving curated algorithmic beauty and aesthetic

it’s more about the fact that the average woman does not have access to intensive costly beauty procedures and treatments or surgeries that require continual and lifelong upkeep like your average woman is still subject to beauty standards and shame associated with them but she’s not as likely or as easily able to access things an influencer may.

I'm not at the Walmart but I'm at Tesco looking very ordinary because I actively think the beauty standard that's currently popular looks ugly and dumb as shit. You will never see a photo of me online because I think it's ugly and dumb as shit to take photos of yourself and put them online. I can only imagine that people who are anything like me feel the same. So there are plenty of women out there too who are not even trying to look like that but you won't see us on the internet, because I can kind of only describe the look you guys are talking about as "an internet way to look."

Hey, hey, look me in the eyes when I tell you this okay? The whole "do trans women or trans men have it worse?" debate going on right now is the most obvious CIA bullshit on earth cause honestly we've both got it pretty shitty and fighting each other isn't helping anyone

really losing my patience for any 'feminist' statement to the tune of 'we need feminism because women fill a fundamentally different and necessary role than men and will be better at doing x y or z'. like actually i think we need feminism because it is an unbearable death of the spirit by inches to exist in a world where you are not seen as a fully realized human being because of a single cultural determination, and because a world that enshrines such things creates systems that are fundamentally sick to the core

men and women are literally the same but unfortunately everyone's crazy so we are forced to pretend they're different in some ways.

Humans do have a surprisingly small amount of sexual dimorphism. On average more difference can be explained by culture more than biology. The horrible youth diet culture has a huge impact on height. Most people can train to lift a surprisingly large amount of weight, it's only at the upper competative level that differences become important... And even then ease of getting funding is significant.

I genuinely think this is most evident in the fact that it is SO easy for us to change sex. Like our bodies are similar enough that a perisex male can become female and a perisex female can become male just by using HRT!

for over a decade, i've seen posts warning against tearing down stickers because of razor blades behind the sticker. i've torn down hundreds of stickers, and i've never encountered this—i think the razor blade myth makes people less likely to tear down stickers

yeah, noone got hurt by this because if youve ever taken down a sticker it's extremely obvious if there's anything weird glued under the edges of the sticker, and even if you didnt notice it would be hard to hurt yourself. It's more dangerous with like A4 posters that you might try to rip down in one motion by hand. and then if you do it cautiously there is zero danger again.

You guys. Just buy a paint scraper?

People sleep with people who they wanna kill 😴 🙄 but yeah, white men are above all of earth the food chain but not above the 👽 aliens 😒 😑

what?
