i don’t think i’m exaggerating when i say that the average height for women in the US would increase by at least an inch if teen girls were allowed to eat as much as teen boys are

and not to bring my own clocky bitch ass into this but if cis women weren’t so consistently starved their entire lives you’d see a lot more cis women with the kind of bodies that we currently associate closely with trans women. the amount that the standards of feminine presentation are culturally defined by malnutrition is crazy

let’s talk about how they made it impossible to function without a phone and digitalised everything and then turned around and went “actually! these phone things aren’t safe for kids but it’s magically ok once you’re eighteen. guess you’ll have to have your life dictated by your parents now lol cause we’re gonna take the devices away from you. IT’S FOR YOUR OWN GOOD WHY ARE YOU COMPLAINING”

ok my apologies. take away my ability to buy anything too ig because these fuckass stores don’t accept cash anymore. take away my ability to communicate with people outside my house and school because I can’t text and I can’t email and I cant drive to them either and I can’t even fucking get public transport without a phone either. can’t order at a fucking restaurant without being asked to get a membership and install an app and also very sorry but you can only order through our online menu now! have you ever considered that it’s not just about instagram?

but for this two-faced bitch there are twice as many stars as usual

my foul demeanour and ill temper. my quarrelsome and disagreeable nature

“i have of late lost all my mirth” should be a valid reason not to come in to work

some people like to get mad at disability benefits because they think its unfair people who dont work get a payout from the government while they have to work 50 hours at the human suffering factory every week. but if you tell them "yeah that sucks i think you should also get a universal allowance and not have to work 50 hours at the human suffering factory every week" thats apparently the wrong answer.

There is absolutely a platonic explanation for that

But I will also entertain the non platonic for my own edification do u understand

the letterboxd review, a hybrid literary genre equally born of the recipe blog personal essay and the desire to receive reddit gold,

BORING! BANAL! PREDICTABLE! CLICHÉ! AND WORST OF ALL… PROFOUNDLY UNCHIC!

I wonder how it feels to be a therapist or psychiatrist in 2026 and watch the despair of young patients and realize it’s not attributed to mental illness but a rational response to the state of the capitalist hellscape world we live in

often i am scared for no reason or several reasons

also re: Ezra Pound's disgust at the "fleshiness" of D.H. Lawrence's poetry and that of the pre-Raphaelites, this is obviously not an original thought but I think it's interesting to note that the treatment of art and literature as a problem of optimization and the promotion of the idea that good literature and good art is about ruthlessly "cutting" whatever is "unnecessary" is itself an impulse that essentially applies the logic of eugenics to aesthetic theory. and so it's no surprise that Pound, arguably the most notorious fascist of 20th century Anglophone lit, is voicing said critique, and it's interesting that fascists' disgust at "fleshiness" (and its near-synonym "flabbiness") is still a cornerstone of modern fascism that links their artistic theory to their sexual politics and to what might seem like more fringe fascist phenomena like looksmaxxing and fatphobia etc etc
