I Am A Work In Progress

I'm Jordan, a 19 year-old female from the USA whose blog is a mess of random topics, mainly politics and humor with a dash of popular culture. My current obsessions are Hamilton and Pokémon GO💕

the older you get the more conscious you need to be about kids in fandom spaces…. things is different now. might have been “okay” to talk about smutty shit with adults back when you was a kid on livejournal in 2001 but its 2017 now and u need to be the mature, actual adult that understands boundaries. dont continue a chain of adults exposing children to sexual content just because its “okay” in fandom spaces… wish i knew how to speak english on a basic fucking level to get this poitn across lol

[jvhdb]

okay i think i have it

people consider it “okay” in fandom spaces to be sexual with/around minors because it happened to them when they were a kid, and thats what i mean by continuing the chain. if you keep up this trend of exposing minors to sexual things because it happened to you, theres a large chance that minor will grow up to do the same to another minor, who does the same to another minor, etc and no matter how you try to justify this to yourself, its incredibly weird for someone in their 20s to be discussing even fictional characters touching each others pussies with someone under 18, or in some cases even under 15. its weird. it is extremely weird. just because its fictional doesnt make it any less weird.

you might not like it, but growing up and being an adult brings a lot of responsibility on to you. you might not “feel” like an adult, but you are literally an adult. you can make all the jokes you like, but youre a grown up, youre an adult, you need to monitor your own interactions with children for their safety and comfort. if a child comes to you wanting sexual discussion, you reject them, and if youre feeling helpful about it, suggest they keep discussions of such things to people their own age for their own safety. maybe youre not a predator, but other adults might be.

it doesnt matter how “mature” the kid is, or if the kid came to you first to discuss this, because the bottom line is youre an adult exposing minors to adult content which, even if you can find a law to justify it, is morally repugnant. youre not doing them any favours, youre not being a cool adult, youre being massively inappropriate.

kids, teens, please keep safe online. i know its super fun and its easy to get personal with people, but your parents werent lying when they told you about paedophiles and predators. just because someone is friendly and cool and popular in fandom doesnt mean theyre not a predator.

These guys are literally asking what “benefits” (to the rich) Meals on Wheels provides and since it doesn't give any benefits (to the rich) they should be dismantled.

This is the problem with the hypercapitalist mindset that good businessmen make good politicians, than government should run on business principles.

Because if you’re running a business, it’s entirely reasonable to ask “what’s the ROI for this program?” and to scale it back or abandon it if you’re not seeing good ROI.

But that’s because the aim of business is to make money. The aim of government is not about making money, it’s about responsible stewardship of shared resources and doing the best we can to take care of our people.

And yet here we are, living the plutocratic dream under the control of a bunch of businessmen who ask “are we making enough money off of this?” about programs to care for the poor.

Tldr eat the rich. It’s the only viable solution at this point. We’re too far gone for anything else.

PSA

Because April 1st is coming up, I feel the need to mention that my blog will not contain “screamers” of any sort. No pound noises unexpected, no “flashers”, no “jump scares”; none of that nonsense

Reading about Congress bills can be dry, so here’s a quick thread on the eight bills (among 2,000 - according to Al Jazeera English) introduced since Trump took office in January.

I will update this post with a link explaining each bill - which has far-reaching and devastating consequences for Americans, especially low-income Americans - in a very short bit.

[mehreenkasana]

Here is a brief description of each bill in easy-to-understand language.

Girls Scouts encounter Bigfoot the most frequently. Part of their oath is to keep him a secret because he’s very kind and makes up 30% of their revenue due to his fervent love for thin mints.

its fucked up to me how, like, we as a humanity can forget how to make shit. like how the west forgot how to make glass or some shit for a while.

nobody knows the exact way of creating lots of ancient stuff; greek fire and damascus steel are really well known examples, and material scientists are still studying roman cement because it’s better than modern cement 

[joyceanfartboner-deactivated202]

isnt that so fucked up

[a-daks]

all because SOME MOTHERFUCKERS always think it’s a good idea to destroy libraries.
