WASTED

Japanese child actress Mana Ashida (little Mako) was embarrassed that she couldn’t pronounce Guillermo Del Toro’s name so he gave her special permission to call him “Totoro-san” instead.

what can be proven is that in no situation under united states law is an individual legally obligated to lend their body or organs for the sake of another life. 

4.5 million people each year are in need of blood transfusion, the entire process of donating blood takes a little over an hour, it’s free, and a single pint of blood can save up to 3 peoples lives, but there is no legal obligation or requirement to donate blood in place. 

it is illegal to take organs from deceased peoples’ bodies without permission. CORPSES. bodily integrity is prioritized by law, even after death.

it doesn’t fucking matter whether a fetus is a person, whether a fetus is alive, whether a fetus has a soul. it literally doesn’t matter. pro-lifers set up the argument through that lens (hence their name) to evoke empathy and pity and take the focus away from the actual process of pregnancy, which changes a person’s body FOREVER. that is not an exaggeration. whether the pregnancy is complicated and high-risk or totally smooth sailing, the birthing person will physically never be the same. if they’re lucky, they’ll come out of it with weight gain, differently shaped breasts, and changes to the cervix/vagina. if they aren’t, there’s a fucking laundry list of potential complications that could arise, that may eventually fix themselves, need surgical or therapeutic intervention, or never go away, like varicose veins, separation of the abdominal muscles, incontinence, prolapse, diabetes, postpartum depression, and chronic pain, just off the top of my head. and this makes no mention of the very real possibility of income disruption, as well as the financial cost of giving birth, and the chance of fucking death, which is even higher for underserved communities like black women.

Popular people are not automatically your friends. don't speak to them like they are. As someone who has a good number of popular/high follower online friends, overfamiliar friendliness sets all of them off. They hate it. Think before you make that comment or send that ask/DM. In my own experience, I hate it too.

On that note, the notice me senpai behavior is weird too please stop

Don't dump without permission first. This means don't vent/rant @ someone (esp ppl you don't know) without checking if they're able or willing to hear it.

On that note, don't self deprecate on someone's posts, especially on art. Like literally who wants to spend hours on a piece just for a stranger to comment "man I wish my art could be like this mine is trash"

Don't beg for follow backs. Please.

You can delete asks you don't like. You may feel like you need to answer everything, but trust me, you don't. Not every ask, anon or not, is worth it.

You can ignore messages you don't like. You may feel rude for it, but your boundaries and comfort are first.
