posts that are like "help I'm in a quad relationship where we have to do everything as a group but I only really like one of my partners :(" idk couldn't be me I simply would not be in a situation where I am expected to be in a relationship that is solely a codependent group dynamic and I don't even like most of the people?? just to preserve one relationship?? no person is worth that??

#like this is where my empathy falls short bc I cannot mentally put myself in situations #where the prerequisite for even getting into that situation is not loving or respecting myself at all #or debasing myself in the name of maintaining a romantic relationship of all things

school uniform codes extending to what colours you’re allowed to dye your hair, and what piercings you can have and stuff is so crazy. you HAVE to go to school and you’re not even allowed to have pink hair or pierce your nose about it????

“oh it’s to prepare you for the workplace” okay. i don’t think any workplace should be dictating what you can and can’t do with your body either and i think it’s strange to decide to teach children that their body is not their own

for those like me that want proof this is real:

just thinking a lot lately about that tiktok series of a guy asking strangers 'do you think this person is gay or straight' and its this whole chain of people being like oh im obviously straight everyone can tell and then getting called gay when their picture is shown to other strangers. overall pretty funny series exposing how fake and fragile it all is. but very notably the videos with all men are just calling each other gay but the ones with all women are completely unpromptedly calling the strangers in the photo trans.

the question of "do you think they're gay or straight" is being interpreted not as "can you guess this person's sexuality from their appearance" but "what kind of deviant do you think this person is" and trans men just do not occupy the societal headspace as a potential deviant to watch out for the way trans women do. fail to live up to the standard of cishet man and you're still a man you're just gay. fail to live up to the standard of cishet woman and you're not even a woman

it’s weird that professional letters are supposed to start with “dear.” i don’t even call my mom that

deadly seriously. I think it should be more acceptable to bring up your sex life in medical environments without feeling like you’re going to be judged or like you’re stepping out of line. we should be allowed to bring up sex-related goals during physiotherapy. we should be allowed to mention sex in chronic fatigue activity reports. we should be able to mention this stuff because it’s important and it matters. to a lot of people

identitty-dickruption

I don’t understand why it’s unacceptable for me to say “hey look my main goal for these muscle strengthening exercises is to be able to hold my favourite sex position for longer”. like that’s crucial information for a medical professional to know. killing and maiming

this also applies to jacking it btw

WHAT IS THIS

comradecobalt

Yoshimasa Ishibashi was inspired to create The Fuccons after seeing an advertisement where guests at a party had frozen facial expressions, recalling that they were “so fake they made [him] laugh.” Ishibashi opted to use mannequins because he did not want audiences to dismiss the series as a “TV parody” and because the series’ content would feel “too grotesque” if real actors were used. In addition, he did not want the actors’ personalities to influence how the characters were portrayed and wanted the characters to be “completely depersonalized.” Recreating a retro family setting similar to Bewitched, Ishibashi sourced the mannequins from a friend’s warehouse, which originated from Yoshichu Mannequin. He picked fair-skinned, blue-eyed mannequins because the Japanese-looking mannequins had facial expressions that seemed too serious. Before filming, the mannequins would be styled by Ishibashi’s make-up and hairstylist teams while he chose the outfits himself. He claimed that working with mannequins was “weird at first” but later decided that they were “not all that different from live actors.”

Yoo I love the Fuccons! I’ve seen the whole thing, including the original shorts from Vermillion Pleasure Night before they spun it off. Which btw is the same show to give us gems like this:

at some point in your life you will be boiling fruit, water, sugar, and lemon juice in a pot to make a syrup or jam. the instructions will tell you to simmer for a certain amt of time. your timer will go off and you will look at the pot and go, "hm, this doesn't look thick enough. maybe i'll let it go for another 10 minutes." this is the devil speaking. it's only so liquid right now because it is at boiling point. it will thicken when it cools down. learn from the follies of my youth and do not let this happen to you

yokowan

at some point in your life you will be making a sauce or a stew in which you need to add cornstarch to thicken it. and you will prepare a slurry of starch in cold water and think "this looks like way too little starch to thicken this amount of liquid." this is the devil speaking. cornstarch instantly polymerizes at 95°C and if you add too much it will turn into an impossibly thick goop.

le-jardin-inculte

at some point in your life you will be making some sort of cream based dessert that requires gelatin to thicken it. and you will soak some gelatin sheets in water and think "this is too few gelatin sheets for this amount of cream." this is the devil speaking. it will thicken in the fridge and if you add too much you will end up with milk jelly

shithowdy

at some point in your life you will be baking cookies. you will take the sheet out after twelve minutes as the recipe instructs and the cookies will still be glistening and soft. "these don't seem cooked enough," you will think to yourself, "i should place them back into the oven until their edges are nice and golden." this is the devil talking. this is how you get dry, overdone cookies. the cookies will continue to bake on the warm sheet for several more minutes and then harden up after sitting on a rack for a while. trust the process. trust the process.

whitachi

at some point in your life you will be adding a small pasta to a soup and you will think "that is not enough small pasta." this is the devil talking. the pasta will absorb the stock and expand. this is how you end up with a soup that is a solid mass of soggy ditalini.

araceil

At some point in your life you will be adding garlic to a dish and you will think "that is not enough garlic." These are angels speaking. They are correct. Add more garlic.

i'm also really annoyed at how often i say fatphobia and people respond with body image issues. no, it's not always body image issues. fatphobia is a system of dehumanization.

bigmouthlass

Our terrible habit of making everything about individual experiences, rather than culture-wide prejudices and the systemic bullshit that develops from those prejudices.

Put another way, how I feel about my body personally is private-- the problem is that medical support equipment like compression wear, wheelchairs, and diagnostic scanners cannot accomodate fat bodies, which shortens lifespans and lowers quality of life for thousands of people.

#we rightfully call it inaccessibility and ableism when infrastructure fails people with disabilities #but why is it just 'hurt feelings' re: fatphobia when navigating the world means facing infrastructure just as hostile to your body

the older I get the more enamored I get with the comfort and ease represented by the month of september

still plenty warm during the day, but the mornings are cool and maybe you'll want a little sweater when you have your morning tea/coffee

the air smells nice too

#it's been cool in the morning this week compared to the past weeks of heatwave #and with August looming and then August and September linked to the start of the school year in my brain #from too many years of being a student (and I would do more of I could)#idk September is on my mind #and also the fall collections hitting retail is not helping lmao bath and body works I fucking see those candles
