so much of late 2000s music was like “we falling in love... in this club... we’re all family... in this club.... we’re having the time of our lives... in this club” like wtf we gotta get back to the club !!!

“As workers, most men in our culture (like working women) are controlled, dominated. Unlike working women, working men are fed daily a fantasy diet of male supremacy and power. In actuality, they have very little power, and they know it. Yet they do not rebel against the economic order or make revolution. They are socialized by ruling powers to accept their dehumanization and exploitation in the public world of work, and they are taught to expect that the private world, the world of home and intimate relationships, will restore to them their sense of power, which they equate with masculinity. They are taught that they will be able to rule in the home, to control and dominate, that this is the big payoff for their acceptance of an exploitative economic social order. By condoning and perpetuating male domination of women to prevent rebellion on the job, ruling male capitalists ensure that male violence will be expressed in the home and not in the work force.”

just realized that tomorrow is election day. for the past several months i thought it was november 7th and i just realized i was thinking of the vastly superior mass effect day.

[lesbianshepard]

I think it would be very funny if they called the election today and I was somehow right

i have never felt as mature as when i finally understood (through therapy) and internalized (through emotional work) that you cannot connect and communicate with some people no matter how kind, compassionate, understanding, articulate, eloquent, or smart you are, and that sometimes a person not listening to you does not reflect on your communication skills or ability to connect or straight up intelligence. in a way, it’s letting go of the belief that you have the power to make people understand you. communication is a two-way street, and needs two willing participants. some people are just walls, and it has been unbelievably helpful for my mental and emotional health to let it slide and know that it does not affect me or my self worth.

for perspective, hawa hassan who did several videos for bon appetit was payed $400 for each video. for every gourmet makes video claire saffitz makes she makes a MINIMUM of $20,000.

this was misinformation on my part, claire has not made her salary public, i apologize for not sourcing my info

sohla el-waylly makes $50,000 PER YEAR. that’s fucking nothing when you factor in the cost of living in nyc. bon appetit needs to run sohla, and all their BIPOC workers, their checks, i’m talking backpay in full, before we continue to watch their content and put money in their pockets. adam rapoport resigning is only the beginning, do not let them sweep this under the rug to avoid paying their employees what they are due.

I’m so sick of this shit. Two gastations can’t even be on the same block without some walnut shipping them, while I can’t find a single fic for dennys/applebees with dennys bottoming.

[storytruths]

you’re literally out of your mind if you think Dennys isnt a top
