guys I just found the greatest video on the internet

[roycohn]

gay men brought back 70s mustaches, lesbians brought back 80s mullets, and now straight dudes are just walking around with both thinking they stumbled onto this styling choice by accident. say the line meryl (cerulean sweater monologue but specifically about how gay culture creates taste)

Friendly heat wave reminder that libraries and museums both need to have really good air conditioning systems to keep their items safe.

Libraries are always free to be in and typically encourage loitering, and most college museums in our area are free and open to the public.

The first rule of fandom is have fun. The second rule of fandom is find an enabler and become an enabler. Yes you should write that fic. What if it was even hornier? What if it was angstier? What if you wrote it just for me?

Here's the thing about homeschooling that I think non-homeschooled kids don't and can't understand. You can have the best parents on the planet with the best intentions on the planet and homeschool will still seriously fuck you up. There is no way to do it ethically. I know because I basically had the best possible homeschooling experience.

My parents pulled me for the fourth grade, and I was homeschooled until the end of high school. Nine entire years. They pulled me from the public schools for a perfectly reasonable reason — my mental health was in the toilet and I needed to be away from other kids who might hurt me as they had spent all of my third grade year doing. My mom has a fucking PhD in neuroscience and tutors math professionally. She was, during the ten years that my siblings and I were homeschooled, the best, kindest, most caring, understanding, lovely teacher you could ask for.

But I'm still broken. That's the thing about homeschool. You can have the best experience possible in homeschool and still come out a fundamentally broken person. My social development stopped at the age of 10. I'm a 22 year old adult woman with the social skills of a 10 year old. That's not to say that that COULDN'T have happened in public school, but being homeschooled only made it more of a certainty. Both of my siblings and I have fewer coping strategies on average than our peers with similar neurodivergencies because we basically did not live in the real world for a decade during key developmental years.

Don't ban homeschooling because of the religious nuts. There are plenty of them. Hell, I KNEW plenty of them. But there are also plenty of quote unquote "good" homeschool families. Ones that do everything you would hope the model homeschool family does. And they are still hurting their children, even if unintentionally, because homeschooling is an inhrently traumatic experience. It's isolating. For seven entire years of my life, I had no friends. Not because I was a social outcast, but because I didn't even SEE anybody regularly enough. But, nonetheless, I knew people. You generally do if you get involved in the community.

Ban homeschooling because it breaks and utterly destroys everyone who goes through it.

Everyone.

I'm sorry, Lauren. I'm sorry, Kade. I'm sorry to the boy whose name I can no longer remember. I'm sorry that I survived and you didn't.

Homeschooling was probably the best possible way for me to get educated, given my particularly blend of neurodivergence: It still messed me up terribly bad, and I was one of the luckiest ones. For most kids it was far, far worse.

I agree 100%

my "i love my mind horse that wants me dead" T-shirt has people asking a lot of questions already answered by my shirt

[frogcroaks]

All good questions, let me clarify the nature of the mind horse:

The mind horse is the manifestation of ambition and subsequent humbling of an artist seeking to tackle a larger project or learn a new medium.

The mind horse is not a predator, rather she compels people to aim higher, but will not pick them up if they fail. She is a guide that will not save you if you get in trouble. This often comes with the metaphorical Killing Of The Artist — the feeling of frustration and defeat and inadequacy that you may face when you follow the mind horse.

The mind horse cannot force you to do anything but she will tempt you with a beautiful journey and the feeling of wind hitting your face as you run alongside her.

No, i took an oath to follow wherever she leads me even if i trip and fall. She may not help me get back up, but she never runs away

She's very orange and very cute

I hope this helps you to understand a bit more about the mind horse.
