And Then There's This Asshole

please help: save Indiana’s wetlands #opposeSB389

I have no practice writing calls to action, but no one else is coming forward and it’s almost too late, so here goes.

Indiana state senators have recently introduced a bill (sb389) that would repeal the Isolated Wetlands Program and strip protection for nearly a third of our scant remaining wetlands.

If this bill goes through (which it will in the next few days, without significant public pushback) it will be an enormous and irreparable blow to Indiana’s future, environmental stability, and natural resources. Wetland ecosystems are unparalleled in their biodiversity and home to countless rare and threatened species—and are also essential to floodwater mitigation, climate stability, and the filtration of contaminants from groundwater.

If you are an Indiana resident, please call your local representatives (find them here) and ask them to oppose SB389. If you are not an Indiana resident, please reblog and tell friends and family who might live in the state to speak up.

unless one character in the equation is a heinous asshole or something, i am entirely impervious to love triangles. 

[jvlianbashir]

i live by the “____ has two hands” meme motto

[jvlianbashir]

“oh no!! two friends fell in love with the same person, what will they do???? who will have to sacrifice their heart??” NOBODY, BITCH. 

“a character thought their spouse was dead but they finally moved on and have a new spouse they love… but now the original spouse is back! who will bow out for the others’ happiness??” I MEAN, ALL THREE OF THEM HAVE WEDDING RINGS ON ALREADY…

“this trio of adventurers have faced hell and high water together and developed incredibly deep bonds with each other during their quest, but now that their quest has come to a close, which two of them will settle down together?” COZY COTTAGES IN THE WOODS ARE BIG ENOUGH FOR THREE.

Kill the love triangle. Normalize polyamory.

If you aren’t already, you should be buying from Cantrip Candles

So, Cantrip Candles has already been a favorite company of mine for awhile purely just because of the quality of the products. They make candles designed to enhance your RPG experience, and they do a great job. 

Their candles are divine, are 100% soy (so they don’t smell like burning plastic), have fantastic scents (seriously, there’s a bakery one that just straight up smells like fresh bread. It’s magic, I swear), really well priced, and the big ones even come with a metal D20 sunken in (a sweet bonus)

BUT IN ADDITION

They’re black owned and operated

They partner with and support PRIDE and lgbtq communities year round

Also support other important causes (currently you can pay a dollar to help plant a tree as they partner with the National Forest Foundation)

They’re so nice, great with customer support, and just such a wonderful company. If ever there was time to support a black owned, lgbtq friendly shop, it was now.

They are currently out of stock on a lot due to a surge in support (go figure) but are restocking in the next week. You can get updates about restocks and things like that on their home page.

not 2 be controversial on main but i think it’s pretty sad the first major generation to grow up online is projecting their adolescent self-hatred onto the “cringe” generation of tiktokkers

[owlmylove]

did zillennials seriously spend their youth making OC fanart on devart and livejournal and being told “oh look, they finally emerge” by their parents whenever they risked leaving their room only to turn around 10 years later and say “ewwwh you spent hours cosplaying an OC & learning a viral dance in your bedroom? fuckin cringe”

[owlmylove]

like….. did we truly lose sight so quickly of how it was to feel young and disconnected and desperate for someone, anyone, to really listen to you? to feel close to you? how quickly have we become jaded to the joys of carefully, earnestly crafting something alone in a dark bedroom and sharing it with the world, hoping for just one other person to say “that’s how i feel, too”? how much must we hate our younger selves in order to blame the teenagers of the world for creating costumes and dances and dreams for themselves???

Young people of the world:

I might not understand it, but I want you to keep doing your funky lil thing, and know that I will never judge you.

[galoogamelady]

This is definitely not a new topic but

the only people I pity in this WFH situation are artists whose spouse/family/roommates now spend their whole day at home and they walk into the artists’ room while they’re drawing emotional stuff and making hideous faces

[galoogamelady]

We don’t talk about that.

When a drunk girl outside a club bathroom speaks… you listen. If she tells you that you’ll find love despite being hurt in the past? She’s right. If she tells you to stop being so self-aware? She’s right. They are the modern day Oracles at Delphi and must be taken at their every word

[guarded-affection]

outside after a lesbian concert (King Princess), i asked a girl dressed as jesus if she forgave me. a drunk girl ran up and slurred “i don’t mean to interrupt, but you don’t need to be forgiven. you don’t need to be forgiven.”

It's so fun and cool and sexy to think about how major corporations would completely dissolve like sugar cubes in hot water if we just didn't go to work

to everyone who is losing things like concerts and senior proms and commencements and brunches they’d had planned forever and literally anything they’ve been looking forward to i’m sorry. i really am. it sucks and i’m sure there will be people in your life who will tell you to get over it because others have it worse right now and while it may be true that others have it worse that doesn’t make your pain, disappointment, or sadness any less real or valid. keep your head up.

[iwantasecretgarden]

my sister’s wedding was just cancelled by the venue. when I told one of my friends how upset she was and how heartbroken we all were to have worked and planned so much, she just said “well, it’s good.”

i understand that there is illness and people at risk, but the callousness of it shocked me, just as she was unmoved by my other sister being sent home her senior year, losing her research job, putting all the cells in the freezer, three years of work, her thesis, graduation -

“oh, everyone is doing that.”

your loss is valid. god and even if you are hearing about someone’s “inconsequential” thing they loved - a concert, a brunch - you don’t know if that’s the thing they’ve been sticking around for or not. so just like fucking chill and be kind: it hurts for everyone, in different ways. you aren’t being selfish for losing something you loved.
