Next up someone is going to claim that the Narnia series isn't kids books.

Kids books is probably not the best way to word it, you can enjoy them at every age, including your childhood, as you get older you may find new truths in them, but they're still good for any age.

My kid read this in 4th grade.

[pacificnorthwestdoodles]

It’s either 4th or 5th grade reading level.

“It’s 300 pages” dear sweet tap dancing christ.

I can’t believe I have to say this but if you’re enjoying an activity you typically want it to last longer.

You know what would be a good story? a fat girl vampire.

can you imagine?

“I’ve never seen you eat are you insecure” “no…”

“here let me lift that for you” “I got it, thanks” *uses inhuman strength to lift bags*

“I’ve never seen you go to the beach, do you have trouble shopping for a bathing suit” “haha… yeah”

“There’s no way that girl can catch me… she’s huge!” “Hello, dinner.” *running with super fast vampire speed*

“She can’t fit in here! I’m safe!” *turns into a gas and slips under the door*

“How come you never go out?” “Well, I never get invited to parties…”

“Come to the gym with me! We should lose weight” “Not in a thousand years.” (incidentally, that’s when she was last alive.)

“You need to go on a diet!” “I’ll start with you.” *literally eats that person*

As an anarchist I ideologically oppose socialism but then I think about Debra Messing lying in bed at night, steam and springs shooting out of her ears, because a Muslim is handing out free pies to every toddler or whatever and dagnabbit I can’t help but smile

unfortunately very true. Doing Better does not always mean never being upset or never being triggered or never having trouble. often Doing Better means experiencing those things and being able to keep going/cope healthily/move on. if you’re in a bubble with no sensation, if you’re numbing yourself out, that’s not what recovering really is. it won’t help you have a happier life it’ll just make your world smaller and smaller until you can’t fit anywhere anymore. gotta learn to make peace with the hard stuff too, that’s the only way to keep going

I say this with zero empathy or pity in my heart - how bizarre must it be to be the POTUS while you have dementia? He waved at the TV because his brain is turning into soup and it can’t compute that he’s being filmed from behind. Like his day-to-day internal experience must be beyond surreal.

I do think that post about how "Zohran Mamdani always wears a suit, even if he's wearing something else he wears it OVER the suit" is fun! However!

idk I think there's probably an element of "brown men have to dress a certain way to be taken seriously" to the whole thing as well.

Like, it's absolutely not fair or right, but racists would probably have a field day with pictures of him dressed like a normal construction worker.

Respectability politics, you know? POC are not allowed to relax (or appear to be relaxed) the way white people are.

I think about this a lot in regards to his demeanor. Like he’s a very lovable golden retriever kind of guy, but he really can’t be any other way. He has to downplay his position of authority by being as non-threatening as humanly possible.

I’m not implying that it’s insincere - maybe he’s just a very affable guy. But I imagine he is certainly downplaying any feelings of anger or outrage, of which I’m sure he has plenty.

Racism against Indians is actually a little insane when you consider how widespread it is even among liberals and leftists . Even people who consider themselves to be progressive will laugh at call center or tech support jokes. All scammers are inherently indian. It’s okay to laugh at jokes making fun of Indians for their feelings towards animals or how they drive. India is inherently backwards and dirty so it’s okay to make jokes about getting food poisoning from even looking at indian food

[belle-tane]

My partner is Indian and it is so hard watching the effect this has on him. It’s not like he even has to be confronted directly to be affected.

He goes through life knowing that many of the people interacting with him think he is unclean, inferior, or untrustworthy - even the ones that are polite to his face. Racism drains the peace from his life. I can see it on his face. I can see the difference between old pictures of him and the way he looks when he walks in the door.

It’s especially hard to watch because we’re xennials and we grew up in a more progressive time. It really feels like 50 years of progress vanished overnight.
