Can you say one of your younger friends or family who is rude, rascal and violent is cute because of their appearence even if they were adult!?

at the end of the day the venezuelan election could have been procedurally perfect and free from all imaginable corruption and government interference and there would still be no such thing as a "fair, free election" in venezuela as long the USA stays committed to starving the country unless one party wins

like if you want Eyes on Venezuela because you think maduro strongarmed the electoral process maybe you should also put some fuckin Eyes On the country that's blackmailing every last Venezuelan voter by withholding food and medicine until they elect their preferred candidate

sorry for being passionate about how normalized the ability to stand is and no one talks about n how painful it is and it makes me see red sorry it’s just so pointless . Im killing the protestant work ethic and also the concept of “professionalism” with my hands . Everyone start sitting on the ground at bus stops with me

For what it’s worth I think Algerian women should be allowed to do quite literally whatever they want on French soil considering the atrocities generations of Algerian women faced during the revolution, like Imane Khelif should be getting free swings at every member of state while she’s in Paris! Hope this helps!

“It’s so crazy JKR is misgendering a real cis WOMAN who was raised as a GIRL her whole LIFE what a dummy” is such a dogshit argument lol stop ceding ground to the idea that cis women have a more legitimate claim to womanhood because they were “born and raised” a woman and that’s why it makes this misgendering “more” ridiculous somehow. transphobes being constantly wrong about who is “actually transgender” is not their trans clocking radar ‘misfiring,’ they are proudly, openly, and successfully terrorising the public into accepting a very narrow & particular white suprematist notion of gendered divisions in society. JKR is not ‘mistaken’ she’s a fucking white supremacist who hangs out with other white supremacists & advances white supremacy through the language of transphobia. why is anyone still acting like she’s “making mistakes” where have you people been

the fact that any athlete can be subjected to "gender testing" on a whim because osmeone thinks she is too strong, too fast, just simply Too Good to be a woman is so fucking antifeminist, how can these people not see it?

all you need is one opponent crying big fragile tears because you were better than her and suddenly you are subjected to humiliating medical tests, every second of which is splashed onto the news as a scandal, and god forbid you are discovered to be intersex! you can be barred forever from sports for being born a woman The Wrong Way, and tricking everyone into thinking you are a Correct Woman. even if you are also just now discovering it. quick question do you, person reading this, know your chromosomes? are you sure? have you had them tested?

whenever i see talk about third spaces people pretty much always mean bars, or other places of consumption. Nobody really talks about something like a public bathhouse that would be a massive boon for local homeless people, or making local laundromats a free public service. These can, and I think absolutely should be valuable and very utilitarian third spaces for community building.

The contemporary corporate culture around mental health awareness/support is so fucking agonising. It's like this play-acting of social responsibility by forcing people to sit through empty platitudes and useless advice written by and for bougie fucks whose greatest mental health issue is feeling a little stressed before their monthly performance review. To add injury to insult, many of the institutions pushing this stuff the hardest are the ones most responsible for the material conditions that actually cause or exacerbate so many mental health problems. Like having decent working conditions or reliable access to housing is gonna improve mental health a lot more than breathing exercises and mindfulness.
