you will not go to space today.

Hi there! I'm Jimmy, short for James, and I use masculine pronouns (he/him/his). I tend to post about the music I like, my many fandoms, and my life. I greatly enjoy comic books and I'm a professional comic book writer. I'm still an amateur prose writer, but I like to consider myself an expert reader. I struggle with depression, anxiety, and type I diabetes. In my spare time, I don't write and I like to roleplay.

I’ve actually read a lot of Sapolsky’s work.  He’s one of my favorite scientists in the neuro/socio world.

The reason I love folie so much is because it starts out with BUZZ BUZZ BUZZ DOC THERES A HOLE WHERE SOMETHING WAS and then moved to I DONT CARE WHAT YOU THINK AS LONG AS ITS ABOUT ME and then it takes you to I GOT TROUBLED THOUGHTS AND A SELF ESTEEM TO MATCH but then it ends with OH HELL YES IM A NERVOUS WRECK this album is a whirlwind of emotions

it's cool that you're on a rant about cis people or whatever but keep in mind that your argument literally makes no sense. saying that cis women never get killed for being cis makes literally no sense????? we get killed FOR BEING AND IDENTIFYING AS A WOMEN??? I DONT UNDERSTAND YOUR LOGIC

But not killed because you're cis, e.g. not killed because your gender identity matches your gender assigned at birth. Trans women are killed for being and identifying as women--but also because they're trans. Does that make more sense?

First let’s be clear about this. “Unemployment” does not refer to people too lazy to work or to the losers who have failed to secure an available job. What unemployment means is that there are no available jobs. It means that X number of people are being denied work. The unemployed are not those who refuse work, or who do not seek work, or even those with poor “job-seeking” skills. The unemployed are that percentage of the population whose right to earn a living is being denied to them. The 7 percent or so unemployment rate we have had in the years following the crisis year of the Great Recession refers to the percentage of the work-force for which no jobs exist to seek, to find or to fill. This is why the better measure of unemployment is the ratio of job-seekers to job openings. That ratio has not sunk below 3 to 1 since the Great Recession. That means that if in a single miraculous instant, every mismatch of geography, skill-set and pay-scale were met and every job opening were filled at once, then two-thirds of our unemployed would remain unemployed. And at that point there would be no reason for any of them to send out résumés, brush up on their interview skills, or do any of that other victim-blaming make-work we expect them to do, unpaid, until such time as someone deigns to allow them to earn a living again. I prefer that ratio as a measurement of unemployment because it proves — proves — that all of the moralizing lectures levied at the unemployed are cruel and absurd.

Unemployment is ‘evil,’ the ‘opposite of just’ and ‘a real social disaster’

Everyone must read this.

(via brutereason)

This this this.

The way society treats unemployment is like bringing 10 hungry people together, putting out 2 apples and waiting to see what hapens. Then, after the two people fastests/strongest/closest to the apples have eaten, they turn on the other 8 and ask “Why haven’t you eaten?”, “Are you too lazy to eat?”, “Do you enjoy being hungry?”, “I’m sure you could have gotten that apple if you had tried harder”. Conveniently forgetting that there wasn’t enough food made available in the first place.

"hey friend if you're trying to argue your point, I would avoid using generalizations and stating facts without evidence this has been my very friendly advice sorry if it comes off as rude, I just want you to make your argument stronger because then it's harder to counteract"
