it will never fail to baffle me when americans talk about their war veterans and expect sympathy. it's a very specific and inexplicable state of mind. when i try to imagine how they think, as people wholly devoted to a bloodthirsty empire and see everything that it does as essential and justified, i would imagine they might attempt to either whitewash their crimes to make their empire seem better, or not care at all to appeal to their empire's victims in the first place. and many do those two things. but there's a bewilderingly common third stance people take where they're like "yes we did those horrible things. but surely you must imagine how deeply painful and taxing it was to do those horrible things!" and they fully expect you to swallow it like it is the most natural emotion to respond with and not a hundred layers of chauvinism removed from any trace of humanity. and if you don't sympathize they are genuinely taken aback and they don't understand how you don't appreciate the terrible toll of having to be the one to make these vital decisions! they truly think SOMEONE's gotta torture and murder these civilians, and their poor grandpa made the noble sacrifice to be the one to make this painful decision, so regular people can sleep at night! don't you FEEL for him? and they wholeheartedly believe this.

the mystery bruises you're getting aren't from anemia or something stupid like that. they're from me. i go into your house while you're asleep and softly hit you with hammers until i am satisfied

this is the only website that has ever made sense to me

worst part of being an adult is how often youre forced to nag. you Have to be annoying or youre never getting anything done. which is unfortunate considering how common it is to teach kids to never nag and be annoying ever

a professional i am paying money doesnt show up w zero communication and IM the one who has to feel guilty for having to call him and ask whats going on. because when i was a little kid i would get yelled at for nagging. joke world

Women have a great day <3 men beg for forgiveness

isnt it interesting how lesbians who are into media with male-dominated casts and are deeply invested in platonic or romantic/sexual relationships between male characters are really not any kind of rarity or outlier. but anyone other than lesbians or bi women being really into media with female-dominated casts and being deeply invested in platonic or romantic/sexual relationships between female characters is a rarity or an outlier. it is almost like there are some sort of structural forces that make mens' stories and feelings a matter of public interest and womens' stories and feelings an afterthought. probably not though i guess it's just an inexplicable result of completely legitimate personal taste that is above critique. oh well.

the planet won't heal until fat butches are a common sight in media

don't go into the humanities because they're unprofitable and don't go into stem cuz its getting torn apart right now and don't go into buisness because it's competetive and speculative and don't go into education because it pays like shit. Just lay on thr ground. Just lay on the ground.
