Cause fuck the poor, it's only the already rich that truly need the government's help

This continuing water crisis is tragic (for the people of Flint), criminal (for the state & county government officials who failed to put people first) and immoral (because of the long-term damage done to people’s lives).

The Nepali, Indian, Bangladeshi, Afghan, Vietnamese, Korean, and Chinese women who cut your hair, or do your nails, or give you spa treatments, or thread your eyebrows or upper lips? They’re all people too, lol. They aren’t dogs. They’re providing you a labor (and doing it well, might I add). They work hard and long hours every day, and often have to contend with overtly racist, misogynistic, xenophobic, and generally hostile treatment, especially from white female customers. Please don’t tokenize them or reduce them to the value of the labor they provide for you or act like the only worth they have is how well they paint your nails or cut your hair. Stop pointing out that they “can’t speak English well”. Stop acting like they’re robots.

Want to hear a hot take?

Despite what modern core nihilism will tell you, the accidental nature and inherent meaninglessness of life as a biological phenomenon does not mean that our efforts are pointless but instead allows us all to determine what we personally desire out of life. It means we are free to pursue what our hearts desire, and so enables each of us to find our own unique meaning.

Also love is real.

And the majority of people in the world are inherently good-natured.

[alfareria]

Constantly thinking about angelic auras, love as a concept and a feeling, the beauty and miracle of water, life, growth, healing in all its process of pain and happiness, nature as a space and self acceptance.

possibly controversial opinion: i think “natural” makeup is, over time, more damaging than bold, obvious makeup

[solacekames]

I don’t think that’s controversial at all. 

[solacekames]

@qualr sure I’ll explain :-)

Mainly because makeup itself, the generic concept, is an integral part of human identity. People have always done it (even Neanderthals used makeup) and we’re always going to keep doing it. The concept of decorating our faces/bodies with colored pigments is practically hardwired and on a deep level just plain FUN (look at how much kids love to get their faces painted at fairs and carnivals and so on). The concept is also totally gender neutral. In some societies, men traditionally do it more than women, for example. Using your own body as a canvas for art taps into a mystical, childlike sense of wonder. First you look one way, then… another! Like magic. 

But mainstream commercial makeup culture as it exists today is incredibly exploitative, misogynist, colonialist, colorist, and hurts women, especially poorer women and women who don’t fit the racial ideal as expressed by the mainstream corporate beauty industry. And a big part of that is pushing “natural” looks. All women are supposed to look “naturally” poreless, for example (which isn’t realistic or healthy) and are punished socially and often financially if we aren’t. Another example: contouring is supposed to accentuate the “natural” lines of your face but for me and a lot of other Asian women with moonfaces, it’s the furthest thing from natural! The further you are from the rich thin young lightskinned bigeyed straightsmallnosed highcheekboned look, the more weirdly artificial the word “natural” becomes. We’re supposed to sink all this time and money and resources into achieving this bullshit “natural” look until it all feels a bit like Sisyphus rolling the stone up the hill. 

Putting a bright blue streak on your eyelids and walking out the door might take five seconds and probably makes you feel expressive and happy and good about yourself, even if it seems “tacky” through the lens of mainstream makeup culture. But taking an hour and trying soooo hard, using all the latest expensive products to make it seem like you’re not really trying at all, makes a lot of women feel worse about themselves, not better. In fact it leads to a lot of women feeling insecure about their real face and their real skin. There are many ways to look garish, but only ONE way to look “natural”. Instead of turning your own face into a canvas where you’re the creative artist, you’re following a ruthless set of instructions and doing a sort of strict paint-by-numbers that you’re never going to do right anyway. So it represents giving up more power over your own face/body than you’re actually getting back. Subjugation to the social norm, not creativity.

Everyone treats violence against women like a practice round or some shit. “Oh, well he only hits his girlfriend, he’s not dangerous, he doesn’t need to be treated any differently” and then he goes on to be violent towards men or decides to shoot up a damn building of people and people are like “wow I had no idea he was like that, we should do something”

Violence against women is violence. It counts. Hold them accountable for fuck’s sake
