Not to be rude or anything… but this isn’t a great time for me to have a house-elf in my bedroom.

My sister’s exploring. She says she wants to see every inch of this penthouse. Well, I hope she’s careful. Without a system, a person could get lost. My sister’s very resourceful.

Got a new bookshelf and stayed up until 1am putting it together 😅 is there anything better? Also, I got some beautiful books for Christmas that I never posted on here! I’ll probably spend the rest of the weekend organizing but so far I’m pretty happy 😊💕

It’s okay to be white.

It’s okay to be black.

It’s okay to be asian.

It’s okay to be hispanic.

It’s okay to be female.

It’s okay to be male.

It’s okay to be trans.

It’s okay to be nonbinary.

It’s okay to be straight.

It’s okay to be gay.

It’s okay to be bi.

It’s okay to be YOU.

But it is NEVER okay to be Count Olaf in disguise.

I hate that with liberal feminism, every conversation gets shut down with “its her choice!!”. Like in one of my women’s studies classes we were talking about body hair and I shared how I think the societal expectation of women to shave is bullshit on so many levels but I still feel the immense pressure to shave during the summer due to fear of ridicule or personal embarrassment and another woman in my class responded with “but it’s your choice to shave so it’s empowering!!” Like no. Shaving my legs to alleviate feelings of shame if I don’t is not ‘empowering’. Being uncomfortable with my body’s natural state is not ‘empowering’.
