I just had an argument with someone who was like “why would we settle for food stamps when we could have universal basic income?”

And it’s just like. People need food right now you know.

[what-even-is-thiss]

I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again. Hippie church moms donating quinoa chips to my local food bank have done more for me materially than any internet idealist ever has.

[what-even-is-thiss]

People get pissed at me for being a pragmatist in my political ideals but I’ve been in the position where I was out of food right now.

And who helped me with that? Not people calling for some nebulous revolution. Not people telling me that the system was useless. Not people preaching at me to grow my own food. It was a church food bank partially funded by the state of Texas that some southern hippies donated a bunch of Whole Foods nonsense to.

And you know what? I’m sick and tired of defeatism. What can we get done right now, huh? Are you gonna accept something a bit better to help people right now or are you waiting for your perfect utopia to come to you?

Yeah, UBI is better than the quinoa chips. Sure. But right now the quinoa chips are stopping people from going hungry and if all we can do is get the food bank quinoa chips to more people, then I say so be it. That’s something. I’ll almost always take baby steps over nothing.

snap did more for me when I had it. but I can’t work so my stamps are gone. It helped me feel less like a burden.

Women stick thin and malnourished on the red carpet, and people are saying you can't point out that these women are dying because that's body shaming. Girl.

Love that moment when Frodo Baggins was told he has to go alone on a perilous quest and it's his fate to go alone and for some time he agreed and then he went nope I am taking my boyfriend with me. And everyone was like oh thank god he's taking his boyfriend with him.

i highly recommend finding yourself a clingy (healthy) lovey dovey partner who's always super excited about you. life is too short to spend it with someone who acts like showing love is a chore.

Someone who hangs onto your every word when you tell them about your day with bated breath, as you relive it, together this time.

[innerchildabortionclinic]

don't know how controversial this is, but if you're going to let your own past trauma restrict your children's social lives, just don't have children. literally my best childhood memories are the time I spent with other kids playing outside or staying at their house. i've seen discussion about how staying at another kid's house should be forbidden because what if one of the family members is a freak. look, I had a friend who wasn't allowed to visit me when my dad was there, but it's because his behavior was outwardly antisocial and violent (last straw was trying break a car window with us in the car), not because of assumptions. if you assume everyone is going to behave this way, you will become incredibly isolated. the psychological damage is not worth the perceived safety. I used to work in childcare and actually decided not to pursue it long-term (despite receiving a lot of positive feedback) because I was aware I was a very anxious person and had to try hard to hide that behavior from young children. for example, during this time I had severe lilapsophobia, so i'd literally see wind in any situation and assume a tornado is imminent (no I don't live in an area where that happens). I really just had to quietly be on the verge of a panic attack 24/7 while outside at a playground with 5 year olds because I knew deep down the fear was illogical and didn't want to scare them.

I don’t know how to break this to some of you but someone being cringe is not a crime. It’s not even a cancellable offense. Too many of y’all have lost your sense of whimsy and now give off the energy of the popular kids in school who side eyed and scoffed at anyone different. Hiding behind the veil of online anonymity has made some of you really mean for no good reason

so much autism "advice" boils down to "just spend more time socializing and you'll catch on to the rules :)" as if one of the main points of autism is that you can't "just catch on"

Why are all music teachers like this 😭😭😭

[communeist]

THEY ARE

[crematedequally]

when i was 8 i had a very intimidating russian woman as a music teacher- she was both my opera instructor and piano teacher. about a month into piano, she sat me down and said to my mother and i "this child- very beautiful voice, good for singing. i will not allow this child to continue piano. god did not want this child to play an instrument. he told me this in dreams. that is all."

my mom had it written down on a slip so we could remember the exact words because it was so funny. i HATED playing piano and i was definitely not good at it (i did end up having a good 5 years of opera training and ended up being a pretty accomplished choir singer though) and the idea of god sending my incredibly severe and serious russian piano teacher a dream begging her to stop teaching me piano was probably the funniest way it could have gone.

is it crazy to say that the only reason people make jokes like "i bet (conservative male politician) has a grindr account 🤣" or other jokes about republicans being closeted homosexuals is that they think being secretly gay or being a hypocrite is more shameful and worthy of mockery than holding homophobic beliefs

like no matter how you spin it, the punchline is always "i bet theyre gay lol thats weird". even when you try to defend gay people you cant help but to make our existence the butt of the joke

[derinthescarletpescatarian]

"If someone hates gay people then they're secretly gay" not only implies that homosexuality is humiliating by treating their supposed gayness as a source of humiliation, but also says "homophobia is an internal community problem, not something perpetuated by straight people, and it's solely gay people's responsibility. Straight people aren't involved."
