Braver Than You Believe

the overwhelming grief of losing an entire year to sickness, violence and pandemic fatigue is settling in so id like to remind everyone that: you are not a failure, yes there is still a happy future for you, and wearing a mask is very sexy

This might be my favorite post hahaha

I WAS LAUGHING SO HARD YO BECAUSE DON’T THEY KNOW IT’S SUPPOSED TO BE THERE???

listen, all i’m saying, is that if you open a bag clearly labeled “dead dove do not eat,” and then you pick up the dead dove and take a bite out of it, and all this time you’re in a building with a sign saying “dead doves in bags convention” and you had to sign in at the door, you don’t get to complain about people who put dead doves in bags

It smells and sounds like spring 

Not to romanticize on main but there is really something healing about sitting in front of an open window listening to birds and wind chimes and enjoying a natural breeze. It’s like the world is telling you breath 

i cant believe i fell for that “look angry and upset and hope someone saves you” shit in high school! how boring! what an awful way to live! i want to be so warm that ppl are gently warmed when theyre around me

like a soup

like a soup

“who just knocked that glass off the table”

whats a gender neutral word you could use for your spouse? wusband?? hife?? wifesband?!?!?

i may be stupid

This is the text version of looking for your glasses when they are on your head

My dad told me that he has a coworker who’s a trans woman. She was married to this girl before her transition and they remained together after it. Everyone at work respects her pronouns. My dad is in a chiefing position at his office and he told me that nobody jokes behind her back. She and her wife have two cute dogs together and I felt like I should share this story bc I want everyone to know that this positivity and respect exists and you deserve it. Don’t ever dare think that you don’t because you do.

Update: they have three dogs now

There is a non-binary person I work with who uses they/them pronouns. Their pronouns are in their email signature and the only time I’ve heard someone not use them was one person who had previously worked with them at a time they used different pronouns, and he immediately corrected himself mid-sentence, looked embarrassed, and proceeded. I’ve never heard him or anyone else not use their pronouns again, and my workplace runs the gamut from eighty-year-olds to twenty-year-olds. No one ever discusses their pronouns or anything about their identity behind their back unless it’s to choose a bar or restaurant to hang out (in non-pandemic times) and say “no, we can’t go there, that place doesn’t have a gender neutral restroom for them”. They have been married to a delightful person for ten years and (in non-pandemic times) she would often join for social activities. They have a toddler who is the cutest thing on this earth. They’re an absolutely brilliant engineer and I have learned a great deal from them as they’re much more experienced than I am, and I appreciate how patient they’ve been when I’ve made mistakes. Again, positivity and respect exists and you deserve it every bit as much as these people. Don’t ever forget it.

Apparently Mike Pence and his wife are homeless and couch surfing in Indiana with the secret service in tow. Dude hasn’t owned a house in over ten years apparently. He lived in the Indiana governor’s residence and then at the Vice President’s residence at the naval observatory. In 2020 he still listed his voting address as the Indiana governor’s residence lol a little over a week ago he was the second most powerful human in the country and now he’s couch surfing

Genuinely don’t know if this is a shitpost or reality. If it is real then that’s cool but what the hell lol.

this is funny but not cause "haha pence homeless" cause im sure his family is still wildly rich. the funny part to me is that he has had all this time to find and purchase a home, but i know the reason he hasnt is cause he has no fucking idea where he fits in now. i imagine that he probably WANTS his family to live in a town/suburb that is considered a rich conservative christian stronghold (or at least heavily conservative republican if not also "christian"), but unfortunately for him most of those places are also now trump strongholds as well and his family will 100% not be welcome there. and then republicans who did finally disavow trump wont want him in their areas either because for them he still represents trump. and he would probably rather eat a grilled slice of his own ass before living in a liberal area. so mike pence isnt really homeless, he just has nowhere left to go because no matter where they move, everyone is going to absolutely hate him.
