#raine's charity shop

I volunteer at a local charity shop on the weekends, and i find so many interesting things there and witness wholesome things. I like to post about them to spread positivity and review it for myself later on to remember good memories

At the charity shop, there's a stray cat named lucy that has been visiting the shop nearly every day for the past six to eight years or so. I post pictures of lucy sometimes bc she's too cute~

The love of my life, my soulmate, my best friend: my cat Banshee

All it means when people say “you’re speaking from a place of privilege” is that you’re likely to underestimate how bad the problem is by default because you are never personally exposed to that problem. It’s not a moral judgement of how difficult your life is.

my advice for women is eat more, shave less, and do whatever the fuck you want

a lesbian just fully stepped out of a bar and shouted down the street at me to tell me i looked hot. i'll be riding this high for the next 3 years.

[beemovieerotica]

she stepped out of the bar to talk with me because she had "fucked up" the vibes at trivia night with her situationship (best friend of 8 years, hooking up for 6 months) and she found my energy "grounding." she then asked to follow my dog's instagram account and then gave me her number so she could set me up with her gay male friend.

consider that allyship takes many forms and the power of a gay man and a lesbian traumadumping upon their first meeting in the street is simply beyond your comprehension. also i'm going to fuck a twink.

A while back my pharmacist saw my deadname on my profile and accidentially called it out, he corrected and deleted my deadname from the system so only my preferred name shows up now. There was a crowd of people behind me, so as he hands over the pills he apologized, in equal tone and volume as when he called my deadname and lied saying it's been a long day and he didn't mean to call out -his own- name. I quietly told him it was fine and he didn't need to do that for my sake.

His response: "No, it's my name now."

I went to the pharmacist yesterday, his nametag is my deadname. He informed me he's immigrating and in the process he's changed his first name to my deadname to have an English sounding name. That's why he's now able to get a reprint of his nametag to be my deadname. And repeated, with the intense seriousness of someone who is going to die on this hill: "It's mine now. Not yours. I'm taking." His tone indicated that decision is final.

Bro literally deadnamed me once, and has committed to flat out stealing my deadname. It's his now. Legally. Officially. I over heard his co-workers call him by the name.

keep thinking about how I wrote in my dissertation about how every time a new form of public/social space emerges it's immediately popular with kids and teenagers who see it as a chance at freedom and then adults colonise it and kick them out. this happened with malls in the 80s and diners in the 50s and pool halls in the 20s. my dad was doing research on this trend in like 1975. and I was like "yeah so this is going to happen to the internet" and then five years later every government suddenly decided to ban kids from everywhere online. I hate being right especially when I don't even get paid for it

has anyone noticed that after the porn ban of 2018 tumblr was essentially killed from the mainstream and everyone flocked to other social media sites like twitter and meta. then those sites got enshittified to where twitter became Nazi Central and meta sites had an entire meme around getting “zucced” aka mark zuckerberg himself would ban you for saying a no-no word like fuck. and then the mainstream shifted to tiktok where infamous toddlerspeak sentences like “he got unalived by a pew pew” were born because if you once again say a no-no word like kill or gun or any other word that isn’t corporate i mean kid friendly then the algorithm will bury your post into the ground. and somehow we’ve come full circle and tumblr is now the most bearable social media site because although we can’t have female presenting nipples we can at least talk to each other like adults. has anyone noticed that at all or is it just me and the flaming skull

Writing is wild. One day you’re unstoppable and the next day you’re staring at your keyboard like it personally betrayed you.
