The test for allyship isn't how you treat an oppressed person who is your friend, family, spouse. It's how you treat an oppressed person you absolutely can't stand who is vile and loathsome in every way.

Do you gender trans people correctly even when they're being absolutely terrible people? Do you refuse to use the r-slur against someone who suicide baited you but is neurodivergent? Do you refuse to snark at a mentally ill person who is being genuinely unpleasant, "go take your meds!"

Do you allow members of marginalized groups to be terrible people without judging their entire demographic for it? One of the most invisible yet vital forms of privilege is the right to be terrible people as an individual rather than as a group. Do you acknowledge that there are bad people in every group, that it doesn't make their group less worth fighting for? Or do you shake your head if you happen to get mistreated by some who belong to a group and insist the entire group is awful and not worth your allyship?

Oppressed people can see how you treat those of us you like, but do you still treat the worst of us with the basic dignity you treat the worst of other groups with?

Some of you really need to understand this

[kn1fedoll]

m sorry but god complex' are hot ahshhehe yeah I will sit by your legs and listen to you talk about how amazing you are n nod along n look up at you in awe and admiration n fetch you a cup of tea or coffee or whatever you like best pls keep talking i love u <33

[mebbrrr]

every now and then the internet decides it should revamp the ole “stop texting first and see how many friends you lose” when in reality you could literally just communicate that u feel bad that ur the only one texting first

[mebbrrr]

mfs are legit assuming that their friend isnt texting first because of how little they care abt their friendship when in reality they literally just dont know ur upset and didnt realize there was a problem in the first place. just talk to ur friends its not that hard and if they’re a bitch just tell them to kick rocks

reasons you should watch Trese on netflix:

- you know those monster of the week shows? like lucifer, teen wolf, and yeah supernatural™️?

imagine that but with a filipino woman as the lead, and her sidekicks are two himbos.

- there are so many unique southeast asian monsters and magic rituals you probably haven’t seen before

- compelling plot, interesting characters, gorgeous animation

- cast actual filipinos for the english dub like dante basco (zuko from avatar: the last airbender, jake from american dragon: jake long), manny jacinto (jason from the good place), dee dee magno hall (pearl from steven universe), and so many more

- short. it has SIX EPISODES and each ep is only half an hour long

- actual southeast asian representation written for and by southeast asians!! please watch Trese on netflix so we can have more diverse and interesting stories told by people of color salamat 🙏🏼

It's time to kill the idea that we can only grow and heal when we're uncomfortable. You heal every time you have a good conversation with someone. You heal every time you laugh. You heal every time something makes you smile genuinely. You heal every time you have fun creating something - anything. You heal every time you get so absorbed in something fun that you forget your struggles for a while. There is, in fact, lots of healing and growth to be found INSIDE your comfort zone.

“humanity is inherently selfish and bad” bbbrrrghuhjfkg. humanity is seeing a stranger’s grocery bag break open on the sidewalk and harvesting fruits and veggies from the branch-like cracks of the asphalt for them, just because you can. humanity is helping a lost child find their mother on a crowded beach, looking for the ladybug-patterned parasol with their hummingbird-small hand in yours. it’s an elder’s fingers wrapped around your arm as you help them up the stairs because the elevator is broken, and feeling like you’re doing exactly what you’re supposed to be doing, like this is what you would’ve been doing had you been alive centuries or even millennia ago. there will always be a heavily pregnant woman who will smile at your when you give up your seat, a nice blind man in the fruit aisle who will ask you to please pick the riper plantain for him, a tired cashier whose face will light up when you compliment their tattoo sleeve. humanity is connection

Does a mysterious benefactor want to give me a large sum of money so that I can surrender to sloth and luxury???

I was trying to explain to my sister-in-law that I simply cannot turn on my car headlights if anyone is looking at me and she thought I was crazy.

Literally nothing more embarrassing than tying your shoes in public like oh look at me I'm a 5 year old because I couldn't tie my shoes tight enough to last a walk through the kroger

[official-lucifers-child]

are y’all okay

[thatqueerchoirkid]

no

[cookiescr]

nothing more embarrassing than being early for a meetup and being embarrassed that you look weird so you start playing with the notification bar on your phone pretending you're texting someone

This is why people who stay in my life are neurodiverse like me!

finding out this was a real podcast between a mother with cancer and her son was so upsetting but also potent 

[viiuan]

yall with adhd or autism or such ever just get…. bored. like so Painfully bored. like its not “oh hehe i was so bored and i made this” to flex or “oh im so bored bc i have nothing to do” but like a “i am physically incapable of ending this horrible understimulation with any activity i might attempt” and its genuinely fucking painful

[randomslasher]

God, yes. I have been too bored to fall asleep before. 

[boazpriestly]

It is so hard to explain to NT people that my boredom is not the same as their boredom. Their boredom is fleeting and easily remedied, my boredom can last for days if not weeks and is more often than not physically painful. Like the pain is not imaginary or an exaggeration, it literally hurts to be so bored and not be able to stop being bored even if there’s a ton of things around me that NT could easily jump to to end their boredom. I absolutely want to be doing something fun and engaging, I can literally see those things around me within my reach, but I need to stop the pain of boredom first before I can do those things…but I need to do those things to stop being bored. Do you see the problem?
