Learning to Fight Back

not to be a boomer but I hate this trend of recording every single emotional moment or act of charity and then putting it on the internet for clout. You can help the homeless without internet validation. You can give your grandma a meaningful gift without recording her at an emotionally charged moment. Not every aspect of your and other's personal lives must be posted on the internet.

me: *gets scared that i’m wasting my life* me: i’m gonna deal with this feeling by taking a long nap in the middle of the day

How do you un-sad yourself

Weed.

Is there a word for that like, “bright darkness” you get in winter?? When it’s been snowing or it’s supposed to snow past sunset and the sky isn’t Dark Enough. One of my favorite things

Tangentially related to my last reblog, men having preferences is not inherently fragile masculinity. I don't like to paint my nails, or wear dresses, or skirts, or anything frilly or feminine. This isn't a moral failing of me as a man to not adopt gender nonconformity, nor is that the case for any other man, cis or trans. And I'm just talking about fashion here, not even to mention the gross attitude people have towards what sexual acts men do/don't participate in. There is a difference between societal expectations vs the conscious choices of an individual, and the latter should never be disrespected. Violating people's bodily autonomy doesn't suddenly become progressive under the guise of #girlpower

Stuck dealing w the harrowing knowledge that the only person who can truly absolve me is me

Begs for forgiveness from a god who’s lived inside me all along. Or whatever

or whatever

the fact that chickens, who produce eggs for families and are fairly low-cost pets after initial expenses, are not allowed in many areas due to noise but dogs, who are considerably noisier and considerably more a risk to people are, is kind of ridiculous

Anyone else constantly on edge because we are in the final stages of late capitalism and these next couple of decades are gonna be make or break for the western world, and this just happens to coincide with the part of my life where I’m supposed to make something of myself :/

You didn’t have to say it with words

I love how the body structure and the decor of the larger bone fairy creates a nice area of concentration that leads the viewer’s eye towards the tooth fairy. This, aside from the obvious glow and design contrast, help direct the attention where needed and is a brilliant move by the artist.
