I...tried to make a meme and got carried away and made A Thing that is like partially unfinished because i spent like 3 hours on it and then got tired.

I think this is mostly scientifically accurate but truth be told, there seems to be relatively little research on succession in regards to lawns specifically (as opposed to like, pastures). I am not exaggerating how bad they are for biodiversity though—recent research has referred to them as "ecological deserts."

Finally finished my sweater!

as promised, the transplanting tutorial

most sources make transplanting sound incredibly difficult, but transplanting young seedlings from areas with sparse dirt, like a driveway or roadside, is actually incredibly easy and can get you some great stuff. Once I worked out the method, i've had a very high survival rate

it took me like a month of trial and error to figure this out so you don't have to.

addicts in active addiction with no intention of quitting

phys disabled people who deny medical treatment

neurodivergent people who deny psychiatric treatment (yes, including schizophrenic people and people with personality disorders)

trans people who want or don't want to medically transition (yes, including trans masc lesbians with top surgery and trans women without bottom surgery, yall are so weird to them wtf)

where in it do you see "my body my choice means im exempt from consequences"? NOWHERE, because that's obviously not the case

yes, people with PDs can be abusive without their meds

yes, being raised in an addictive household can be bad for a child

yes, refusing treatment for medical conditions can make you a "burden" for your family (im actually way more mad at this one than the rest, im just choosing my battles)

as much as it is my choice whether or not to medicate my personality disorder, it is also yours to be involved with me or not

i have gone AWOL for months due to this, i've canceled plans last minute, i've hurt people's feelings

some of these people accept that that's the way i am and are still my friends and some don't and we don't talk anymore. i broke up with my ex over this because i was a very bad romantic partner. we're still friends, but they usually lean on others for emotional support cause i can't understand it. i am mad about none of these things, because i know them to be true. i also know strong meds make me want to kill myself. they make me not feel like a person. i refuse to take meds to be more palatable to you.

ALL OF THESE THINGS CAN COEXIST

people can do shit that is harmful to you, but that doesn't give you the right to deprive them of their basic human rights

(shoutout to the person who called me a white american liberal, i'm latine and an agressive socialist but it did make me take the rest of their post less seriously, otherwise i would've cried)

also also, just because this is the last time i'm speaking on this:

every one of you who starts your post with "i agree with the transition part but" is a hypocrite

not too long ago - not to mention to this day - transmasc lesbians and trans men who didn't medically transition were kicked out of every single queer circle, trans spaces, lesbian spaces, gay spaces. because of closed mentality

My Mother’s Garden

The garden lasted a few months. Then, an agent of the town’s housing authority found out about it and told my mother it was against the rules. “But no one’s using the land,” I remember her arguing. “The kids in the neighborhood play there.” The response was clear: Get rid of the garden or be evicted. Here was another one of those impossible choices of poverty. This was what my classmates would never understand, as they earnestly debated welfare fraud and the grasping desperation of the undeserving poor.
