Hot take, but if you see your baby struggle through five hours of homework and then you get pissy because they drag their feet about doing chores? You need to reevaluate.

Like I’m not saying kids shouldn’t be taught responsibility and shown how to keep their house clean. I’m just saying maybe children get tired and frustrated too. Like. Your teenager doesn’t have an “attitude”. She’s just had 7 hours of school and then came home to do 5 more hours. Then, her parents implied she was lazy because she hadn’t gotten around to doing the laundry. I’d snap at you too.

PREACH.

my favourite adhd / general executive dysfunction feeling is when you become very consciously aware that you are bored and there is nothing interesting left on the 5 social media apps you’ve been cycling around for the past hour and finally a small logical part of your brain goes “hey! perhaps at this point it might actually be more fun to do one of the productive things you’ve been putting off!” and you’re this close to going oh huh yeah maybe that's true! and getting up to do some housework or read a book or something when a far louder part of your brain goes “NO WAIT!!!! maybe THIS time when we refresh tumblr.... it will be interesting again” and you’re like "ohhhh right sorry for doubting you boss" & promptly get right back to doing fuck all

People making typos in groupchats and then getting whaled on is extremely funny unless I am the one making the typo, in which case you guys are not funny and being very immature

whats ET short for?

because he’s got little legs

something about layers always makes me feel so prepared... like a backpack on its own is great, but a backpack over a jean jacket over a flannel over a tank top? killer. heavy boots on their own are great, but heavy boots over thick socks, laced up around the bottom of your jeans? dude. off we go on an adventure

On all levels except physical this is me

I need people to understand…that if you believe in paying people a livable hourly wage…most hand-knitted clothing should cost hundreds of dollars

valentineish

It’s absolutely wild how the same people that will champion livable wage will turn around and tell artists, crafters, and musicians “I don’t know, I just think you’re really overcharging for something that’s non-essential :/” before asking for a friends and family discounts.

guys its a wonderful life was literally such an anticapitalist masterpiece that the FBI claimed it was communist propaganda and under investigation they found the movie “deliberately maligned the upper class, attempting to show the people who had money were mean and despicable characters.“

assiraphales

in one scene the main character george bailey is vouching for someone trying to buy a house outside the slums & the antagonist mr potter is like “u need to stop filling their heads with impossible ideas, the working class needs to be thrifty” (all while hoarding an insane amount of wealth) and george slams him w this

he really said the rich view the working class as cattle and that bitch was right!!!!! say It louder!!!!!

The Highlands is the kind of ecological desert you get after genociding an indigenous people and replacing their multifaceted economic activity with a fucking monoproduce headed exclusively by the interests of capital. Stop romanticising it, it’s not supposed to be the way it is.

This is why I can’t look at any of those green / solarpunky posts that have photos of valleys full of sheep

Like there were whole villages in the highlands that are now just completely gone

If you’re ever walking in the Scottish highlands and you come across a graveyard in an otherwise apparently desolate nowhere, chances are that nowhere was a village whose inhabitants were driven out by guns and lit torches to make way for their landlords to profit from the European wool boom

anarchotolkienist

If you’ve walked in the Highlands you’ve almost certainly gone through or over one of the old burned-out villages, like as not without even realising it. The whole region was a slaughterhouse.

Here’s a short, handy video for anyone curious about the highland clearances:

It’s also worth bearing in mind that the largely unchecked deer populations, which are encouraged for the purposes of shooting have a terrible effect on the wider ecology of the Highlands.

The idea that aristocratic land owners care for the land is fucking bullshit.

upsettingandunfortunateclasshate

Toffs did this across Britain too. After they removed the locals they flooded the land with deer to shoot. And deer eat new growth which help keeps the land barren.

Aristocrats don’t care for the countryside, they just use it as a playground for their bloodsports.

theculturedmarxist

The Clearances are another facet of the whole Enclosure system, transitioning away from open, commonly owned and used land, and to the large farms and estates that would lay the groundwork for Capitalism and the Industrial Revolution in Great Britain. Thomas More’s Utopia is an early reaction against this developing economic paradigm where common people were kicked off their land because they had no deed to it, provided no means of sustaining themselves, and then brutally executed when they broke the law in order to survive.

You don’t have to fake orgasm to help your partner’s ego. The guy I lost my virginity to wrote a play about the experience, and the character based on me gave a monologue about how she regretted sleeping with him because no one else would ever be that good. So, yeah. Just tell him you didn’t cum.
