Ponderings Of Plumfield

Can we find a sun god or diety from every timezone and make a map of them all?

We probably can, but the question is should we?

How else will ship captains know who to pray to when they circumnavigate the globe?

…Give me until the end of the weekend. 

Well, there you have it folks. Safe travels.

Why risk it.

HOW THE FUCK 

That has got to be one of the most clever uses of transparency I’ve seen on this site yet.

making friends (especially after you’ve lost a couple or several ones) can be hard and incredibly isolating. finding people we can connect and be vulnerable with is no easy task, so often we feel like it’s a moral failure when things don’t work out between us and someone else. just know there are so many people in this world you have yet to meet who will love you and it’s okay to drop all this heavy relationship baggage now. you’re not defined by the people you’ve lost.

I feel like I'm being seduced like one of those fancy rainforest birds

is it working

Yes

this might be a hard pill to swallow for college students but getting drunk all the time isnt a personality trait it’s alcoholism

Here’s another pill: companies and ad teams know that your 20s are extremely stressful and they purposely target you because they don’t care about making us all alcoholics as much as they care about profiting off of us.

Reblog for non-religious version of AA

Just be careful to avoid these groups. The Church of Scientology loves to use substance abuse support groups as a front.

You don’t have to be a person dealing with addiction to find support from any of the legit groups, either. As someone who has had family who struggled with various types of addiction, but who never struggled myself, I still went to Narcotics Anonymous meetings and was offered support. (There are specific meetings for friends/family. Ask the organizers about them.)

Lunch ideas

Good for spoonies who like to pre-prepare stuff when they do have some extra spoons

Because we all need the comfort of our Hobbit holes right now.

Okay, he’s got potential. :)

Look at the glow in her eyes. She may or may not have loved him before, but now she knows he’s willing to grow and change to improve their life together. That’s real love.

Breaking news: terfs banned from m&ms forever

Wait if round means no nuts what about red

he’s obviously a transman you complete and utter buffoon.

I’m certain I’ve reblogged this multiple times but I’m doing it again

this is one of the best threads i’ve ever seen

This whole obsession with wheelchair users struggling on foot down the aisle at their wedding or across the stage for graduation is 100% powered by ableism.

“The heartwarming story of how one woman worked for 8 months straight so she could escape the horror that is being in wheelchair for a few short minutes to struggle slowly and painfully down the aisle on her special day.”

“the horror that is being in a wheelchair” bitch it’s hella better than struggling slowly & painfully down the aisle ffs

These types of stories teach people, both abled and disabled, that using mobility aids, especially wheelchairs, is inferior.

Who needs a bouquet when you can be a bouquet?

This post floated by a few months ago, and I remember something to effect of there’s a difference between recovery and refusal. That is, like, I have a friend that suffered an incomplete spinal cord injury. He can walk again now, and I don’t think I’ve seen him use his chair in a few years. When he walked at his graduation, it was to show off his recovery. That he wasn’t quite ready to go through a full day upright, but he could walk across a stage, unassisted, and soon he would be able to do that every day. There’s also a difference in someone like me choosing to not use a mobility aid. My mobility is intensely fluid, especially seasonally. So, I would plan a summer wedding. And while I love my cane it can also be the biggest pain in my ass, so I’d want to just go unassisted. But that’s normal for me, at least right now. I can walk without an aid during about half of the year. It’s reasonable to assume I can make it through one day without it. All of that is different than someone that is fully and permanently paralyzed, that will never walk again, dragging themselves along because they feel that’s somehow better. Overall though, my biggest takeaway is fuck the media. Because disabled people should be able to make whatever decision they want without the media turning it into this grand inspirational story.

Crying and letting go of some internalized bullshit. Honestly, it goes so deep and makes us feel so broken.

This is so important, I almost never get to see trans guys older than 25, which makes it really hard for me to envision myself growing into an older man, which in turn makes me feel really confused about my identity. But really I just needed to see some more representation.

Representation is important. Trans is beautiful. Trans is diverse.

My eyes just welled up with tears. Its so true, that its hard to rarely have any examples of your possible future as an older person. ❤️
