I've got a sunset in my veins

Hello, I'm Kaycee. I'm sorta've an existentialist loser but I’m trying to make some sort of impact before I go. She/they.

enough reclaiming slurs, I think in 2023 we should reclaim nascar. they banned the confederate flag on all properties & their stance on lgbtq+ isn’t just performative bc in 2013 they fined a driver 10k for using a homophobic slur, condemned indiana in a statement for an anti lgbt law, and partnered w carolina’s lgbt+ chamber of conference in 2022. nascar was founded by anti-cop moonshiners/bootleggers who drove suped-up fords to out-run the police. #yaaascar

If you think that an agender person who was AFAB and an agender person who was AMAB are two separate genders then I inherently don't trust you about trans issues.

Someone's genitals or AGAB does not determine their gender, and I find it concerning how many people seem to forget this when it comes to non-binary people.

i think every gay person should get a monthly stipend for. piercings and such also beverages. and i think every trans person should get to hit people with sticks legally

licherally cannot explain to adults these days that im actually so cool with the idea of being "just an employee" somewhere as long as i am paid enough to live comfortably and i also like the job. "but dont you want to be rich?? dont you want to always be striving for more???" like that sounds EXHAUSTING and i like having friends so

I hate that the stock response for "I'm lonely/I feel undervalued by my loved ones/I want a romantic partner" is "well do you value YOURSELF? You need to learn to enjoy being alone!" as if lonely people aren't very intimately familiar with being alone. Self esteem and love are important but they're not substitutes for companionship or friendship or romance and pretending that loneliness is a personal failure that can be fixed by self-improvement feels not only delusional but pretty cruel

Culture is so obsessed with the idea of lone geniuses that it doesn't really appreciate that most of the progress of science (and likely every other discipline) occurs collaboratively, in babysteps, and usually through a lot of very tedious, utterly unsexy, work.

it really bothers me that so many people on this site treat ableism like it’s black and white.

just now i saw a post where op was like “i’m glad that spinners are popular because it normalizes fidgets and decreases stigma” and someone replied like “no!! it’s absolutely TERRIBLE that neurotypicals are using these fidgets because when they get in trouble they make things harder for mentally ill kids!!” and like you guys do realize that? you’re both right? it isn’t a decisive fact that neurotypicals using fidgets is either good or bad, there are both benefits and consequences that need to be taken into consideration.

a few months ago there was a post going around that was like, *neurotypical voice* why are you bouncing your leg, and somebody reblogged it saying that the post was ableist because autistic kids can get overstimulated by leg bouncing. i go to a school for the mentally disabled, and i’ve been in this exact scenario, my classmate wasn’t able to focus because i was bouncing my leg and although i felt bad i told him that i wouldn’t be able to stop for long because i do it subconsciously due to my adhd. he wasn’t being ableist for asking me to stop, and i wasn’t being ableist for saying i couldn’t, we just both had different needs. in the end, our compromise was that i went to work in the computer lab.

you have to understand that there is always more than one side to issues like these, and that we should be striving for understanding and balance over demonization of one side and blind support of the other. this is especially relevant when people on both sides are mentally ill or disabled, because sometimes symptoms will clash and you just need to deal with it.

Y’all wanna know what I think about all the goddamn time? My fiancé said that we don’t have some innate spiritual soulmate that completes us or something, our soulmate is the person who we keep choosing and choosing and choosing, and then she was like ‘so yeah, I believe in soulmates, and I know that you’re mine’ and I just 🥺🥺

i mean it, USAmericans don’t get it. climate change activism there is always “in 30 years, things will be so bad”. you don’t get it. you do not get it. it’s already bad. the sea levels rising has already affected islands and coastal regions, it’s just not affecting you. it’s already an issue. farms are already being flooded by salt water. land is already becoming smaller. sea walls are already being built. in arid places, droughts are already threatening supplies. water resources are being reserved. fires are destroying biodiversity and wreaking absolute havoc on the ecosystem, the land, the air…

it is already a crisis.

this is why i get so mad at climate change activists from the americas and from europe who only talk about their own countries. it’s not like its hard on my country either: but i’m seeing it. i’m seeing the people who are moving countries because there’s not enough land anymore - not enough farming so not enough resources. i’m seeing how kids have been taught how to use water wisely for the last decade or two. i’m seeing the devastation, the loss, the beaches slowly shrinking even where i live.

it is already a crisis.

Babies don’t forget there’s an Etsy boycott from April 11-18 to protest the higher service fees recently instated for shop owners despite the fact that the company reported record profits last year. Etsy is usually one of my go-tos but I am absolutely going to stay off for the week. Without its vendors (many of whom are independent artists/creators) Etsy is literally nothing, and if these new policies are undermining their ability to stay on the site without risking their financial stability then they 100% deserve our support. No Etsy this week!!!
