I am headed somewhere incredible. I have so much potential for myself. I am grateful for all the lessons and thankful for all my experiences. I have grown, matured, and learned so much. I am stronger, wiser, and more aware. Things can only get better for me.

Real, honest, and loving people are rare but they exist. Today, I open myself up to receive them. I will not allow failed friendships and relationships to lead me to believe that good people do not exist.

On Tuesday, Michigan lawmakers dedicated more than six hours to allowing evidence-free testimony on the unproven and, frankly, unprovable election fraud claims of Trump supporters. A good summary of these kinds of events came from a man named Bill...

employees should be allowed to steal, actually

idk. yesterday was a slow day and at the end of it, I still stared into a cash drawer, one of three, that had more than my rent in it, even if you only count the 20s. I spent a lot of that day trying to calculate in my head how many hours of work equal one pair of pants, let alone how many hours of work equals the fun thing I want to do next month.

I feel a cough coming on, because I work in a drug store, and all of my customers are sick. I always feel a little bit sick, now. I can’t afford to eat well enough to keep my body healthy. Cough medicine is worth two hours and 20 minutes of work. Our store probably bought a case of cough medicine for they price we’re selling one box. If this cough gets worse, I might have to call out, which will cost me more than the medicine in the long run- but that doesn’t give me the money to buy the medicine right now. I stock a case onto the shelf. I don’t buy any.

A mom wrangling three crying, sick kids enters my line and sets two types of children’s medicine down, says they’re both on sale and thank god for that. I ring her up, and she gets very quiet, because she misread the sign, and her total is twice as high as she was expecting. Her youngest screams in the cart, because she’s burning up with fever. Her mother very quietly asks, please, she’s so sorry, if I could please take the more expensive one off her total.

I agree, I move the box below the counter, and when she’s not looking, I slip it into her bag. I pray as hard as I can that if she notices the “mistake” she says nothing, because I so desperately want her to have that medicine. The store has lost profit at the cost of a child’s health. I don’t bat an eye. This is a terminable offense. If I’m presented with the same situation tonight, I’ll do it in a heartbeat.

The myth of evil employees stealing from the company falls apart the second you realize the company would shoot you dead to make a profit. This isn’t two equal players, one of whom is stealing from the other. This is someone fighting for survival versus someone fighting to make an extra million. It’s not equal.

Employees should be able to steal, actually.

Well now that’s interesting. 🤔👍

I got some of these recently and they’re AWESOME. I am still recovering from a harrowing experience with an IUD my body didn’t like, so I bleed pretty much constantly, with 3-5 day reprieves. So having the cloth pantiliner or pad instead of commercial disposable ones, is fucking awesome. No leaking, less dry skin, no wet feeling, more comfortable, less waste - I can’t find a downside. I just rinse them out and let them dry, and then put them in the washer and dryer with the rest of my laundry. Fantastic.

Bought a few and the discount code worked :) looking forward to trying these!

I am super into trying this product. Yay!

I’ve been using a cup and period panties for a while now.

Green options are amazing 😉

unexpected-readings-of-poetry

I have re-usable cloth pads (not from this brand but still), and as a trans-masc I have to say it’s a great option for vagina-owners of all genders! If you’ve ever changed a pad in the men’s bathroom, you will be familiar with the panic of having nowhere to dispose of the used pad, and perhaps had to hide the crinkle of the packet. With these, there is no need for a bin (just put the used pads in the little pouch provided), and the sound of a popper unclipping is not at all out of place!

How would the process of going about cleansing them be like? And how do I know they won’t retain some of the blood within? I just don’t think it’s something that will be 100 clean after it’s first use.

purplethebunny

@whyarceuswhy Just rinse until the water you ring out is clear, similar to dying hair. And then afterwards you toss it into the washing machine with you know other clothes and things.

A stain is not the same thing as particulate matter. You will likely see some staining. But that doesn’t mean it’s not clean. Like are you okay with sleeping on your sheets after a week? They’ll literally be dirtier than this pad.

choking-on-roses

I use pads like this (from a different company) and I absolutely LOVE them. I’m prone to getting bacterial vaginitis after my periods (caused by a pH imbalance) but I find it happens way less often now that I’m using these. They’re so comfortable that I can wear them for much longer without that diaper rash feeling you get from disposable pads. I truly recommend them.

For washing, however, I rinse them in the sink until the water runs clear, then wash in the washing machine on the heavy duty cycle to make sure they’re extra clean, but I do NOT put them in the dryer. I found that the dryer made them smell a bit strange (it’s possible the ones I have are made of a different material, but still). And so I simply use laundry clips to hang them up and let them air dry and they’re good as new.

maybeitsfinallytime

I literally toss them in the bottom of my shower. Take a shower as normal, let them kinda soak down there at the drain. When I’m ready to get out, I wring them out (and rinse more if necessary) and then hang them on the shower curtain rod to dry. Then they go right in the washer and dryer with the rest of my laundry! I thought I might find them gross or something, but truly it’s not. My body thanks me.

After my bottom surgery I had to use pads every day because of blood loss/having to reajust to my capacity to hold my bladder so i got intense rashes and these changed my life when i randomly found some at my pharmacy

This is serious. We’re living a constitutional crisis with Americans being stripped of their rights by an authoritarian president. He’s supposed to lead our people not target them as enemies or terrorists.

So I’m just going to leave this picture of an old Pablo Picasso here for reference.

kingohats

#I recognized the reference but had assumed it was more of a general influence however they used the same molding and everything#I’m sure it’s supposed to be more of a general statement rather than being about any one artist and I’m sad there’s no caption on her site#but Picasso was certainly one of Those Artist Dudes#which is to say he was an abusive douchebag to most of the women in his life (x)

Not to be dramatic but this is absolutely the right way to deal with creepy old men whose “art” is just pictures of naked women

y'all: i love wearing baggy clothes that don't show my form and being completely shapeless!

also y'all: get uncomfortable around muslim women wearing an abaya/jilbab/other loose clothes that do the SAME THING

supernovaegf

pandemic addition! i’ve seen a lot of people talk about how they like wearing masks because they feel anonymous/not perceived/”like a ninja” and i know a lot of muslim women have discussed the irony behind mandating masks while banning niqabs, but i better not hear anyone talk about being uncomfortable with niqabis when this is over.

I would literally take the ghost of Ronald Regan with running mate Bill Clinton’s boner circa 1997 over Donald Drumpf do not test me

Yeah I’m a socialist and don’t like the current state of the democratic party either but if you don’t vote for Biden you’re literally taking a chance to drag the country a bit farther left and just ignoring it. I dunno what to tell you.

what-even-is-thiss

Biden would also be our oldest president. He probably won’t last more than one term. Do you want four more years of an actual wannabe dictator or four years of a 90s Democrat who can be pressured farther left if we try hard enough like seriously
