Happy Halloween season.
the sexual tension between me and the books that I order/buy but never end up reading
“that fandom is so annoying” i hate to break it to you but every fandom is annoying. all of them. if you’re in a fandom you’re annoying. i’m in several fandoms i’m extra annoying. everyone on this website is annoying.
Hell yea, rb if you’re in a fandom and are annoying
i hope this doesn’t sound really weird but i feel really bad for the lady who came up with gender reveal parties. she had a very legitimate reason for throwing herself one–she’d had a few miscarriages, all of them miscarrying before she was able to find out the sex of her baby and due to really wanting to have children she was distraught, so when her pregnancy made it to the milestone of being able to find out her baby’s sex, she was understandably incredibly excited and threw a party to celebrate it. honestly she had every right to do so and was more celebrating the fact that she’d carried her baby to that point rather than celebrating if it was a girl or a boy
and now she’s the inventor of this horrible thing that makes stupid people cause wildfires. all this lady wanted to do was have some cake and celebrate her pregnancy after a few miscarriages. i feel fucking terrible for her.
she’s slamming elaborate gender reveal parties with over the top shit like pyrotechnics on facebook which is good bc she obviously doesn’t support the crazy shit these parties have become but i kinda hate that she has to because this very calm party she threw for herself years ago to celebrate passing the points she’d miscarried before has obviously become tainted and a bad memory for her and now she’s labelled as the lady who “started” these parties even though hers was literally like. a cake that you cut into and the color tells you what the baby is.
I saw an article saying that she has learned more about gender and her kid came out as nonbinary and she feels bad about how the whole thing hurts the trans communities and her official stance is “There are plenty of other reasons to eat cake” and that we should pick a different one Tbh she seems like a really nice person who is just sort of in the crosshairs of a really big thing she didn’t expect
I’ve been laughing at this all day
sooooo tell us the story of how you fucked your boss's wife??
I love telling this story… just there’s a lot I can’t tell, and some of it is… y’know, not exactly above the law, but I’ll do my best
My boss, let’s just say he was a terrible man. Nobody that worked under him had much love for the guy, much less his family. The wife told me herself he never could… y’know, sexually.
One of my jobs from time to time involved going to his home, and that’s where I met his wife. She was much older than me and covered in tats (I wasn’t then) but yeah, queen of the milfs, as they say. I like a woman that looks like she could mess up my whole life so I was pretty drawn to her from the beginning. She showed me how to sew wounds closed and local herbs that could slow bleeding and all kinds of other cool shit. Her kids loved braiding my hair (I have big and long curly hair) I guess you could say my stupid puta gay ass got a crush on her. She always complained about her husband, sometimes she cried, and I wondered if this lady was actually a lesbian from the stories she told me.
So anyway, my boss didn’t treat her good, and beat her up when he lost a deal. I got so pissed about it, I just reached a boiling point. So, one night we got drunk and I lost it for a solid ten minutes straight. This guy has a real bad temper and is a trigger-happy whack job, so I had a feeling I’d get shot then and there for saying all that. But he was so drunk, he passed out at the table, laughing everything off.
I got up and told him he wasn’t even man enough to fuck his wife but I was, if I ever had the chance. Turns out I’d have the chance all right.
I walked for a long while to clear my head. I recognized the wife’s car down the street, and she waved me over. She’d taken the kids to a family member’s house and was just sitting in the car, crying.
I wasn’t intending to fuck her. I really wasn’t. She broke my heart, and I just wanted to make her feel better. I don’t know exactly know how it happened, but we ended up fucking in her car
The next day, basically the whole town knew. The wife was telling everyone how amazing of a lover I was, so I knew my life was over. I went home to drink and hope I was so wasted, my inevitable death wouldn’t be too painful
My boss came to my apartment, pretty hungover, and shot me, as one might expect. I was a 20-year-old Latin hot-head WOMAN who cucked a narco… that was a blow to his reputation that he’d never recover from.
Luckily for me, he was a shitty husband but an even shittier shot, so I survived. I…. uh, escaped (you don’t need the details there) and lived to tell the tale.
Moral of the story: don’t assign lesbian bodyguards for your wives
“Telenovelas are too dramatic”
meanwhile in latin america
tired: mermaids are all women
wired: much like elves, merfolk are mistaken by sailors for being all women because they have long hair and are very pretty
inspired: merfolk actually have very different concepts of gender to humans because they're an entirely different species with their own unique culture
marine scientist: what's your gender?
merperson: what's a gender
marine scientist: like, are you a man or a woman?
merperson: i'm merfolk
marine scientist: no, like, what's in your pants?
merperson: i don't... wear any? i don't have legs?
It’s a biological fact that fish do indeed change their sex to keep the male/female ratio balanced in their school population. So this fluidity actually makes more sense from a scientific standpoint than the silly idea that merfolk are born with a strictly assigned sex like humans.
Merfolk are all canonically genderfluid and we love them for that
-“mommy, the kids at school are mean to me!”
-“OH, WHAT, ARE U #TRIGGERED???, LIFE ISNT UR #SAFE SPACE LMAO”
Stay away from children for the rest of your lives please
The people who hate this are probably the ones traumatizing their children
this is a show for 3 - 6 year olds what is WRONG with these monsters???
Fun fact, sesame street was created to fill the gap in education for children whose families could not afford to send them to preschool. Sesame street taught basic math and phonics as well as interpersonal skills so that children below the poverty line weren’t starting elementary school behind their more privileged classmates.
Here sesame street is trying to fill a gap where supportive adults should be. Where there should be a teacher or a family member or a counselor to help, for whatever reason, there isn’t, so Sesame Street is stepping in.
This breed of person has always hated Sesame Street. They hated it for showing black and white children playing together. They hated it for giving children of color the head start that rich white families were paying for. They hated it for Bert and Ernie for showing two MEN who LIVED TOGETHER, for the married black nurse who lived on sesame street when it was first released, and for them explaining death. I feel like there was a pregnancy at some point in its early days and they would have REALLY hated that.
These days they don’t (usually) say “I’m not letting my kid watch anything with black kids in it” but they sure throw a tantrum in the youtube comments when Sesame Street DARES to show an autistic girl playing with non-autistic children and being treated like shes anyone else. They lose their shit when Sesame Street has to explain incarceration to 5 year olds. And the muppet in south africa with HIV? Hoo boy.
They hate everything Sesame Street stands for and tries to provide. They always have. We just have to ignore them and keep supporting the show. Or tell them to shut the fuck up and keep supporting the show. Either way Sesame Street will outlive them.
Sesame Street will outlive them.

All the ghost in the house when she said this
So there’s this huge dudebro in my class, who, yesterday, sat next to me. And I’m sitting there sweating because like… I’m wearing my shirt with the lesbian flag on it, and he’s the most popular jock in school, and always has this look on his face that say ‘I can and will kill you’. He looks me up and down, stares at me for a minute and then goes, “So. Girls in skirts and long socks, am I right?”
To which I nodded solemnly, both out of agreement, surprise and also a healthy amount of awkward fear. He nodded and went, “You get it.”
I said, “Yep.” He fistbumped me, and on went our lives.
Oh! I forgot to mention! I saw him at lunch the same day, and he ran up to me, tapped me on the shoulder, pointed at this super sweet girl who comes to GSA and asked if she’s gay. I told him he should ask her because that’s not my place and he said he would.
I thought that would be the end of it.
Except ten minutes later he came back and told me he found out (she’s bi) and that both of us have a shot. I said “You more than me.” because he’s attractive and popular.
But this wholesome dumbass looked really confused and asked, “Because I’m tall?’
So this isn’t lesbian/jock solidarity but I thought you guys would want to know-
My math teacher was trying to fix the rolling whiteboard and he just offhand said “This would be easier with a wrench”
And deadass, dudebro said “Hang on” and then proceeded to pull a fucking wrench out of his backpack
Update- after school today he saw me in the library and he didn’t say anything? He just pointed at the book he was holding and I gave him a thumbs up because it’s a pretty good book, and he went “Yes!” Really quiet and pumped his fist and then left
Okay so today he asked me if I know how to help people having a panic attack and I was like yeah? And he smiled at me and then went “cool I think I’m having one”
And I was like what the fuck Colin we’re in the middle of Tech class sit down and we went out in the hall and sat there for a while and he told me about the test he’s stressed about so we kind of went over his study guide and when he was feeling better he kind of like… smacked his head against mine gently? And I helped him up even though he’s almost a foot taller than me and yeah
This is not farmcore related but it’s still wholesome
