no one i love like that old bitch elder

Oh also! Both for pride and because I want to post more of my original stuff here, here's a zine I made for my recent screenprinting class! :p It's called Masculine Women and it's about being masculine and a woman! Fun fact, also, when you unfold the real thing, there's a big poster on the back! It looks like this:

a. it's a week dedicated to stairs! for 7 full days, 24 hours a day, my blog will be posting a picture of stairs every 15 minutes.

q. how do I participate?

a. the hashtag for this year's festivities is #TOBEDETERMINED ! starting on Sunday, June 14th,you can post pictures of stairs and tag them with #TOBEDETERMINED and I will reblog them, adding them to the queue, and enshrining them forever in the stairsweek collection for future years!

i do not accept submissions for stairposts! you must claim your part in stairsweek yourself. if you do not want your stairs featured in future years celebrations, simply delete the post and it will not be reblogged the next year.

you are also free to reblog, share, and interact with the photos, and are in fact invited/encouraged to. i really like seeing people's tags for the stairs about their opinions/favorites!

q. i don't like stairs ):

a. then block the tag and control your own online experience :)

q. why?

a. I think it's important to remind myself and everyone else that I run my tumblr to collect and post about things I want to. im not on tumblr for clout or success. if i was, I would not post 600+ photos of stairs over the course of a week. i feel like there are are probably much better, more convenient, and efficient ways to get followers on websites that make significantly more money.

also, i just think they're beautiful, interesting, and make you curious about the rest of the larger structure they're part of. they have always been a bit mysterious in that way to me!

q. how many stairsweeks have you had?

a. karkat stairsweek would be entering third grade today :)

q. when is stairsweek?

You can’t

First: THIS RECALL IS NOT STATE SPECIFIC. IT IS NATIONWIDE.

here are the specific products and dates:

FDA page on this:

Twice in my youth (once in high school and once in college) I was in situations where I was asking someone out and I could tell they were calculating in their heads the risks of rejecting me, and both times I said, out loud, "you can say no, I wouldn't have asked if I wasn't prepared for either answer." And then they said no. This wasn't some spark of special wisdom I had - I knew to do it because feminist conversations among my age group brought it up regularly. This isn't happening nearly enough anymore.

More recently, I was really glad when we got to "rejection sensitive dysphoria" in my IOP program and it was one of those symptoms where the therapists really emphasized how it affects others. Because it does.
