adventure is out there

today’s mood is having a frank conversation with my mother about the virtues of prepping for mass civil unrest as a family

ok but genuinely i want all of you to be safe. i think at this point it’s unwise to deny that worse things are coming in the united states. i’m linking this compilation of very reasonable disaster prep guides. there’s advice here for every income level and a heavy emphasis on mutual aid. i love you and we can weather what’s coming together

even if billie joe was straight (he’s not) teenagers getting offended he used the word faggot in american idiot 16 years after the fact would still be some of the goofiest discourse i have yet to see on this website. if you were young and gay in 2004 that shit rocked your world bc we were living through one of the most powerful resurgences of blind american patriotism and anti-gay evangelical bullshit of the last three decades. i dont think most of yall understand how radical that song, that album, and green day’s overall anti-bush pro-gay stance was for the time. even though we were at the cusp of bush becoming unpopular by the time it was released, american idiot saw a fairly mainstream rock band condemning not just him, but the bigoted, ignorant american culture which created him. to remove all of this context from the song and act like green day was just throwing around homophobic slurs for the hell of it is exactly why people joke nobody has reading comprehension on this website lmao. he’s not weaponizing the term; he’s using it to identify with an alternative american society.

Couldn’t let alqueda win you fucking pussies

I’ve read the article about him, he outright said he was so shocked by 9/11 the only thing he could think to do was go bowling

The second girl at least read the book to confirm that it was shit, she even had Capote on deck as backup. Chick 1 is just lazy

If you read thirty pages of a book and hate it, that’s a good analysis. Girl 1 literally said, “It sucked for these reasons, and I only got through 30 pages.” She was absolutely paying attention and trying to get it. But if all you get is a headache, fuck that book.

I love this exchange

It’s a cold and it’s a broken mamma mia

hallelujah, here i go again

My psych professor mentioned swaddling in lecture so I emailed him a picture of me being swaddled in my dorm room and asked if I could get extra credit because it was really hot in there and I got really sweaty and he was like “fabulous, sure”

There is no “faking” being trans. There is no being trans “enough.” You’re always real and you’re always enough.

harry potter and the ancient discourse

Are you threatening me with violence

He’s so close to figuring it out
