What if love is like a honeybee?

Mongolians are cool because they’ve merged their traditional and modern ways of life so rather than having poverty due to losing all their important skills they just live in their yurts with their cows and 827474874mbs internet

sure their GDP in dollars is low but when you can survive like your anscestors did it doesn’t mean anything, nothing wrong with adding a motorcycle and wifi into the mix

Everyone should live like their ancestors did 1000 years ago but with the addition of wifi tbh

this is the single most inspiring piece of information I have yet to come across in all my moments in this world

Skimmable, SEARCHABLE instructions. If they're long, there should be a hyperlinked table of contents.

September is Bisexuality Visibility Month. Please be on the lookout for bisexual people when crossing the street, as we can go both ways.

If you tell a trans man that you don't trust him because he is a man and you think men are untrustworthy, you are directly saying you would be more comfortable around him if he stayed in the closet.

the thing about capitalism is that at a certain point a product reaches its maximum audience and cant really be improved (at least not while remaining profitable), but capitalism requires a product provide infinite growth, and at that point the only way to increase profits is to raise prices, cut corners, and in the case of services start adding advertisements. this is just how the system works.

One time I was explaining to my dad how unfair it is that every big city has at least a couple gay bars but there are only like 20ish lesbian bars left in the country and he responded with "That's cause gay men have a good party culture. Lesbians don't have time to party, they're too busy debating the sociological implications of things and studying for postgrad degrees" and as much as I wanted to tell him he was out of line for that, as a lesbian who spends all her free time on Tumblr debating sociological implications and messaging other lesbians in discord servers where everyone has a PhD or masters for some reason I felt like I might not be the best person to make that argument

That last statement about regret is so important, because so many people don’t understand what it is or what causes it. Anti-choicers exploit this by manipulating pregnant people and creating doubt, which only increases the likelihood of regret, no matter what decision the pregnant person makes. You know what is best for you, even if it takes some time to figure it out.

Willie Parker is a HERO among common people! 

Dr. Parker is one of the few things I like about Alabama and we are so fortunate to have him here.

is that person actually "demanding emotional labour" from you or did you follow one shitty therapist on twitter

while we're at it did that person actually "violate a boundary" or have you been reading /r/relationships again

I'm not just speaking as someone who was abused by a partner who loved doing their emotional manipulation through therapy-speak. I genuinely think this is a huge societal problem and it's how we've ended up with, eg, terfs inventing the clearly batshit idea that you can apply a "consent" framework to who gets to exist around you in public spaces and making it a cornerstone of their fascist bullshit

i promise its not ableist when people say you should try things that arent kids shows and fanfiction

people are not understanding that this isnt saying you cant like kids media because if thats what i meant i would look like the biggest goddamn fool right now. this post is about how limiting your interests to fandom is damaging to critical thinking but some adults refuse to leave their comfort zones because it makes them feel stupid and use their autism or adhd as an excuse to continue being ignorant. honestly i think its worth feeling a little stupid sometimes if it means learning more about the world and people around you

Plenty of highly intelligent people end up getting sucked in to cults because they just wanted people to hang out with. There are antivaxxer nurses. Your ability to act on empirical reason breaks down fast if your social and emotional needs aren't being met.

Like, I reject this idea that people end up becoming tradwives or antivaxxers or cult members because they were dumb. These groups prey on people by filling the social and emotional needs of vulnerable people. They look for people who need help, and give it to them on predatory conditions.
