things that made me stop wanting to die that require no effort whatsoever

change the color used to highlight text on your laptop

move the pictures on your wall

stack whatever clutter is in your room into piles even if you don’t have time to clean it all

slightly vary your commute, even just by one street

change where you sit and scroll aimlessly on your phone even if it’s only to the chair in your room instead of your bed

drink water or juice out of a wine glass in the morning because nothing is real

shower with the lights off, without music

buy $3 flowers at trader joe’s—they look bad next to the more expensive ones but they look so good in your room

start typing things you don’t post into your notes. your thoughts can be worth documenting even if you don’t deem them worth sharing

wake up super early just once. you don’t have to make it a habit it’s just extra satisfying to go to bed that night

listen to the entirety of your favorite album from 2015

Almost all of these are about variety. Humans need stimulation! We need enrichment! We literally cannot do the same thing every day!

The other day I was feeling miserable, so I hopped on a bus and rode it all the way back to where I’d started, and my brain, which had finally had some proper stimulation via new environments, was suddenly ready to go again!

This is why taking walks/drives and trying new hobbies are good for you! Don’t turn yourself into a sad zoo animal! You need some pumpkins to roll around in your enclosure!

the thing about everything is that it all gets easier with practice, so be careful what you practice

If you want to know more about how coal miners literally sell their bodies, PBS and NPR did a fantastic documentary on this, that is now live.

God i so vividly remember being blown away by how she looked in this bc she like had a lot of acne that she hadn’t concealed or anything and as she said she was just radiating pain and clearly well past trying to project any kind of image and she just seemed powerful beyond belief. There’s really nothing like women being raw and un-pretty in public

The best part:

“It’s a common misconception that members of gay relationships have to map onto the roles of a straight couple: woman and asshole,” said Acharya. “But neither of us is the asshole; that’s the entire point.”

Ryser had a number of follow-up questions to this explanation.

“So, if neither of you is the asshole,” said Ryser, “then who plays devil’s advocate when you’re having sensitive political conversations? Who takes the other person’s side when you describe a microaggression? And who gets furious when you’re driving and one of you has to pee?”

Demonstrating immense patience, Acharya tried once more to help Ryser understand.

“None of those things are necessary for a relationship,” said Acharya. “In fact, they’re all bad. People in straight relationships should not do those things either.”

ik this is like by design bc we live in a capitalist society that emphasizes individualism so as to isolate us from one another, but it would be so much easier to analyze and critique societal phenomena if every statement made about the potential harm of certain actions/behaviors/cultures didn’t get taken so personally by the people who engage in them.

we can’t talk about how makeup culture stems from and enforces misogyny or the violent institution that is gender because women who love makeup will scream that no, actually, they LOVE wearing makeup, it’s an art and a hobby and who are we to tell them they have to stop (which nobody ever actually says)

we can’t talk about how bdsm going more mainstream often results in people (usually men) who are sexually gratified by physically hurting others (usually women) having much easier access and opportunity to enact said physical harm, often with people who feel pressured into accepting it who wouldn’t otherwise – let alone discussing why so many men get off on beating women – because self-identified submissives will say “stop telling me what i can and can’t do in the bedroom!”

but frankly i think if someone says “analyze and examine your behaviors because they might be harmful” and you hear “stop doing this because it’s harmful” that tells me that you know what you’re doing might be harmful, whether to you personally, to someone else, or just in terms of promoting harmful phenomena in society, and you’re afraid to examine it because you’re afraid that you won’t be able to justify the consequences of your behavior
