Anita Keep Knitting

I know I'm not the first person to observe this, but banishment is a hell of a funny punishment. I now sentence you to fuck off. I don't care where, just get out of my sight. Go on. Git.

sorry my son lectured your son for watching the counter-revolutionary children's show "paw patrol", but to be fair it is copaganda

the thing no one tells you about learning to knit is that you will learn about how great wool is as a textile and you will be so very angry about the fact that they fucking took it away from us

obviously bigotry isnt rational but "women are naturally worse at spatial reasoning and math" is a wild opinion to have when women have historically been the primary textile producers in a lot of societies. have you ever seen a tablet weaving pattern

tiktok self-censorship is bad all around, but shit like “unalive” and “sewerslide” piss me off so much more because we already have so many euphemisms for death and suicide. “passed away” “no longer with us” “left us” are all common euphemisms for death. if you want to be harsher you can say “kicked the bucket” or “they’re six feet under”. for suicide there’s “took/ended their own life”. not only are all of these familiar in everyday language, they’re also way more respectful than meme-speak. i hate this shit so much.

''when did we all become so performative'' idk man when the threat of being recorded at any time and posted for milions to see without your knowledge became normalised.

the terror of "enabling" mentally ill people is so deep that therapists think gaslighting me into the nth dimension is the safe option. like. literally abuse is preferable to what i Might Do if they Validate me Too Much. if they're too nice to me i might blow up the whole world or something.

I hate when ppl act shocked that rappers know "high brow" cultural references. It's so condescending "this dumb black guy knows about art" as if they're not the main producers of modern culture.

where’s that post that’s like “i need the wicked press tour to be over i can’t keep seeing these levels of anorexia on my screen all day”

I will never understand how normalized it is to put cameras in your home now. I can recognize some scenarios where it makes sense- if I had a stalker for example, but like. It would have to be That Big for me to consider it. People today use it to tell their kids it's time to stop playing video games and do homework like. Like?? I do not understand how you don't understand how harmful it is to raise kids with the sense they're always being watched like why does anyone under normal circumstances invite this into their home

Actually a fantastic example for when you need to illustrate to someone that AI art is theft, blatantly, and not in some abstract way
