All my years of being on tumblr, my dash finally did the thing

some glo ups aint covered in make up and dipped in coconut oil. some are cold and wet in a strange way. some glo ups force you to throw away parts of yourself that no longer fit - no matter how long you’ve had them they. must. go. some glo ups leave you lonelier - wiser - but isolated. some glo ups are private.

I’m so fucking sick of this fixation on obsolete manufacturing jobs that only get attention because they’re seen as blue collar white man jobs. We’ve lost 90,000 retail jobs since Trump was elected, which is more than the entire coal industry employs. But we’ll never hear a peep about those because that’s work for women and POC.

And fuck all this demagoguing about foreigners stealing your job. A robot stole your job and it’s never coming back. 50 years ago a steel mill producing 500,000 tons of steel wire per year would employ 1,000 people, enough to prop up the economy of a small town. A steel mill with that same output just opened up and it employs, wait for it, 14 people. You won’t even see any humans on the production floor, just watching the monitors in the office above. No pussygrabbing orange fascist is gonna turn back the clock on that one. Oh sure, there was a candidate with a plan to retrain everyone in green technology jobs, but solar panels seem vaguely effeminate, not like the muscular labor of dragging shitty rocks out of the ground for pumping poison into the air. How about we really get back to basics and let dentists stick leeches on you again, there’s a lost source of income they could use. Maybe get some blacksmiths back to work. We’ll have a purely nostalgia-based economy and all the old demographics that we’re comfortable with.

One of my goals in 2017 was to take more pictures. I just remembered literally halfway in the year.

Six years after her abuela’s death, Jasmine Dena – a 19-year-old woman known on Twitter as @pettingpuppies – made a heartwarming discovery. Her abuela, Elisa Guerrero, passed away in 2011 when Jasmine was just 13 after a long battle with cancer. The poem was published in Antologia poetica del jerezano ausente – a book that’s seemingly no longer in print.

Jasmine recently got into poetry herself because of her friends. “My tía told me at a family party that [my abuela] was a poet, so I had to find the book,” she added. “And I did after like 2 hours!” Jasmine’s unsure about when her grandmother wrote the poem, but she believes she must have been younger than 5 years old. Jasmine is now determined to preserve all of her abuela’s poetry through an online book.

And if you thought this story couldn’t get sweeter, you’d be wrong. Jasmine told her grandfather about all the sweet responses her tweet elicited, and that brought him some happiness, too.

What a discovery. This whole thing is sooooo heartwarming.
