Be selfish to save yourself.

Tumblr is like the complete fucking opposite of a safe space just so everyone's clear on that. I don't care what the hell kind of opinions you have so long as you're kind and your actions reflect your values. Memes for days. Depression for 15 years. BTW that's not me in my profile pic, that's my fave SPN character. I'm a friendly potato.

listen pals, fuck all that “gentle reminder you would have been beautiful a fuckton of years ago” noise. your physical appearance is absolutely irrelevant and meaningless in the eyes of the great skeleton lord, who only sees beauty in the bones hidden beneath your putrid flesh. stay frosty

YOU ARE NOT A BAD PERSON IF YOU CAN’T HELP SOMEONE!!!

LISTEN FRIEND, HELPING OTHERS IS GREAT, BUT IF YOU CAN’T, THAT IS OKAY!!!

(this is true even if the reason you can’t help is that the person in need is abusive to you or dangerous or toxic in some way. you’re not a bad person for protecting yourself)

I have a date tomorrow night and the plan is to watch a sci-fi movie that makes our brains hurt from the existential drama of it all. What are your favorite sci-fi movies that keep you up at night thinking about the human condition?

I think this is a great one for others to weigh in on, but the first few that immediately come to my mind are

Arrival

2001

Iron Giant

Have a good date!

Going back to school after a long leave of absence

[officialcrow]

this website is proof “be yourself” isnt advice applicable to everyone some of yall really just need to keep that weird shit inside til you die

[carmen-sandyaygo-blog]

I took a leave of absence for this semester. I could have handled it but I let myself get soft. I’m not beating myself up with that statement, it’s the truth. I got in a lot of bad habits. And self-discipline will not fix everything but it is all I have. Self-discipline and prayer.

Good habits:

Go to bed early (lol)

put your phone in a place other than your bed when going to bed

floss

meditate first thing in the morning

push-ups

run

eat

Use the pomodoro method for getting homework done

Start homework the day it’s assigned

Go to the library on 14th street, you vibe well there

remind yourself that you are a programming goddess

pray

Above all, remember: You’re not here for punishment. You’re not here for some bizarre attempt at redemption. You’re here because you want to learn statistics for the sake of learning statistics. You’re here because you chose to be, because you want to be. This is the opposite of fun, but it’s its own reward.

it’s feels weird to me, sometimes, that the raised fist is now used as a super general protest gesture that even centrist liberals will use, and it’ll be in like kid’s  movies and stuff

because it was created as a pretty explicitly communist symbol

and was used as an ‘antifascist salute’ to counter fascist salutes 

not to mention frequently used in leftist iconography 

and in IWW and other socialist organizations in the 20th century

and was used by the Black Panther Party (a socialist group) and other radical,  black activists as a symbol of anti-capitalist solidarity and action 

the raised fist has such a powerful history in radical anti-fascist and anti-capitalist protest. 

I think all activists should learn about it and foster a respect in its complex history. it’s humbling, and also can remind us of the radical roots of different movements which have now been co-opted by liberals and branded by capital. 

no matter how many t shirts it’s printed on or politicians using it there are, it has radical roots, and it will always hold that history for leftists to reclaim
