I know things are scary because they're going to strike us down with their powerful kicks, but here's what YOU (yes, YOU READING THIS RIGHT NOW) can do

normally I would not just screenshot myself and post it here but it’s Friday and I’m feeling lazy

[grocki]

sci fi is all about getting so scared and ripping tubes out of yourself. people miss this

[grocki]

sci fi is all about desperately trying to reclaim your violated bodily autonomy. it’s all about asserting that you are a being with agency, and you can choose what happens to your own person, even if that’s ripping tubes out of yourself. and also sometimes an alien is there

these past few days I've been doing wallets to get more comfortable with hand stitching many layers of leather and so far it's going (from newest to oldest)

calico cat wallet

fish wallet

blue/wine wallet

lime wallet

[sceptixfakemon]

also finished a second fish wallet (I had scraps + wanted to use this gorgeous red leather I got)

this one I put on vinted for anybody who's interested :]

[wizardarchetypes]

okay already i desperately need u.s. americans to practice the phrase, "not where i'm from, but maybe in other parts of the u.s."

because it's genuinely insane the things i've heard americans say 'america doesn't have' when it's just factually incorrect.

for some perspective: during my longest move i did by-car in the u.s., i drove ~3,000 miles. That's ~4,800 km. It took nearly 50 hours drive-times alone. Meaning, if I could have driven without stopping once, it would have taken nearly 50 hours. Of course I split that up over several days.

Driving that same distance here, If there's a ferry+road from Rabat (in Morocco) to Kyiv (Ukraine), I could take it and keep on going another several hours.

So you can understand how silly it is for someone from the u.s. to be asked to answer a question on behalf of the entirety of the u.s.—geographically, culturally, etc.

So now that we've said all that, I need you to know that I listened to a guy from Idaho tell an Irish person today, "yeah, we just don't really get snails much in America."

Snails.

[wizardarchetypes]

Next. Even if someone does say, 'not where I'm from,' you might still want to check that out for yourself:

i should be nicer to anons calling me an egg maybe it's their first time seeing someone even slightly gnc

[pankendev]

[pankendev]

auaahhauhghhh awful awful awful

[can-i-make-image-descriptions]

[Image ID: Anonymous Tumblr ask reading: I'm a trans guy who dresses goth and slutty and i get "omg estrogen would save her" like at least once a week. And when I complain about it people tell me I'm being transmisogynistic for not wanting people to misgender me and tell me to detransition. so yeah I don't talk about it but it fucking sucks /End ID]

[winged-void]

just remembered that my middle school bullies were named Chase and Hunter. what was up with that. what was going on there.

[winged-void]

were you bullied by the pope?

[isthehorsevideocute]

English horse stud ads be like: *confo shot* *shot of horse in performance* "Peppe le Blanc is available this breeding season, contact us for availability*

Western horse stud ads be like: *picture of horse surrounded by Hooter's girls* Granny's Hot Slut Water is available to be your broodmare's hot stud, get him while he lasts, or you'll have to wait until next season.

[elodieunderglass]

American horse for sale ads be like: *picture of clothes-drying rack with a painful expression begging for death, padded with unhelpful flab like a child wearing a puffy coat, apparently dying of tuberculosis, shot with a potato as the photographer was being tackled by a feral hog* beautiful cremello stallion, BLM rescue, backed but a little green , $10,000 great stud potential already covered several mare pretty babies (next seven photos are of goats; unclear if Progeny or just camera roll ) moves well (video of stoned animal hobbling along, spurred, its soul clearly detached from its body) no lowballs i know what i got

UK horse ads: so sorry to trouble you, but if anyone can help find a home for a lovely schoolmaster - perfect mother/daughter share and ladies’ hunter (picture of enchanting horse decorously jumping 1m at Olympics) we would be terribly grateful - please do bring your vet; the horse comes with full MOT, all previous owners have provided references, all vet visits logged in a binder, horse has British Sign Language qualification. (Video of horse doing dressage, filing taxes, and responding graciously to a difficult interview) Has been jumped, hacked, dressed at highest levels (video of most beautiful horse in the world gently taking a toddler to their dance recital) Rides and drives. Holds defensive driving license. Asking £5000 - so sorry.

Irish horse ads: (photos of extremely nice-looking animal, shot for some reason at a 35 degree angle) hOrF sal.e can ship to england for free. 10 year old mixed breed hunter (video of what appears to be an olympic warmblood in fabulous condition) £3000 or trade dfor . what you got

In this case the BLM stands for the Bureau of Land Management which essentially legally owns all mustangs on US public lands

[horsesarecreatures]

Wild mustangs are owned by the public. The BLM just manages the largest portion of them as a public trust resource. A significant number are also managed by the US Forest Service.

[isthehorsevideocute]

I mean they're the ones freeze branding them screening adopters and collecting adoption fees. Yeah on paper they don't "own them" you just have to follow all of their rules and policies, and they're responsible for just about every aspect of their management. As a member of the public I can't just scoop one up and take them home. Heck, if I adopted one I couldn't even put my own brand on it unless I owned it for several years.

IT'S TRUE and it makes it really easy to explain the humors (and other Shakespearean passages having to do with personality being determined by bodily composition) to students!!

Unironically I think the early to mid 20s age group in America has unbelievably bad consent boundaries on all levels and so much language to defend it but this makes me sound like elon musk if I say it however the commonality of someone who will be like “I had 47 panic attacks and it’s your fault” if you tell them no is insane

[junglejim4322]

I rejected someone and got called “the scariest person I’ve ever met” with so much therapy speak interspersed like alright okay alright okay alright okay

[junglejim4322]

“You just say whatever you’re thinking and I don’t know how to handle it” was verbatim part of this conversation. Also everyone hates to see an autistic bitch

[transhumanisticpanspermia]

When I was in this age bracket, there was a huge emphasis on improving consent culture via graceful rejection, and it's gone by the wayside. Which sucks.

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.

Being someone who cannot handle rejection makes you much more likely to violate boundaries, and yes, that includes sexual ones. Yes, you, reader who has never hurt a fly. If you don't want to stumble backwards into sexually assaulting someone, fix your RSD meltdowns. If you keep them up it's only a matter of time. Because if you're nice enough to interact with, but are known to have RSD meltdowns, guess what happens when your friends and acquaintances need to reject you?
