Guided By Light

my favorite thing about navigating fanfiction is finding a really good one and being all “oh boy this was good, I hope they have more!” and literally every other story they’ve ever written was for like Miami Vice 

I hate man caves. I absolutely hate them.

It’s just the sentiment behind them that I find so reprehensible. It’s this idea that men need a retreat away from the responsibilities of family life whereas women do not. I very seldom see people who have man caves also have a space for the woman and if they do it’s always significantly smaller, less equipped, and seldom used.

And the thing is men will often argue this point by saying “well she has the rest of the house” because they think that forcing their wives/girlfriends to do all of the administrative work around the house constitutes personal space. So they force their partners to become household managers wherein a daily flow is created that they are not involved enough to feel a part of, this creates a sense of disconnect from family life, and makes men feel as if they’re being bossed around in their wife’s home , which creates a need to “get away.” Which basically results in him hiding while his wife runs the household. Men think this is fair because they think that it’s natural for women to be household managers rather than realize she’s just picking up his slack.

But also, separate bedrooms are also healthy if that is what works best for you and your partner! Some people have different sleep cycles, some people have insomnia, some people just plain can’t sleep with another person in the bed, and that’s okay! Sleep is a HUGE part of maintaining your mental and physical health, and sometimes the healthiest thing to do in a relationship is to prioritize that so one or both (or more) of you aren’t always operating on some level of sleep deficiency. That doesn’t mean you can’t share the space when you want to, you absolutely can, but it’s shouldn’t be about hoarding space from your partner either; which is precisely what the majority of man caves are, and the ideology behind them.

i’ve become so unintentionally heterophobic in terms of media, like when i’m watching a movie or reading a book as soon as I notice The Signs of a budding hetero romance every bone in my body will groan internally and second hand embarrassment will immobilize me at every trope

Here’s a link to a Google Doc with a bunch of Indigenous organisations which you can donate to, including Black Rainbow (LGBTQIA+ Indigenous organisation) and groups that support incarcerated Aboriginal people and work towards ending Indigenous deaths in custody

I love the pagan eating bread holiday, along with its friends, the pagan eating apples holiday, the pagan eating barbecue holiday, and the pagan eating with your dead relatives holiday.

employees should be allowed to steal, actually

disability is the only marginalization anyone can acquire at any time and yet no one talks about the constant ableism people with physical AND mental disabilities face.

If tumblr is dead why does twitter keep stealing our jokes

If someone sees a screenshot of this post on twitter, please know you are morally obligated to screenshot it, then add that screenshot to this reblog thread.
