almost none of the reasons why i support abortion rights have anything to do with babies. really it’s more about the fact that I think the government shouldn’t be able to force you to lend all your organs to someone else and change irreparably in the process. is a fetus a person? I don’t care! If it is a person, I don’t want anyone to be forced to host one against their will! If it isn’t a person, guess what? Nobody should be forced to host one against their will! What’s a soul? What’s a person? When does life begin? IRRELEVANT! A world in which the government can force anyone to manufacture an entirely new human body at the cost of their own is not a world I want to live in!

not now sweetie, mommy is watching how the massive girlbossification of female characters has led to the belief that weak and vulnerable female characters are badly written characters because apparently every woman needs to be outspoken and witty and snarky and brave in order to be considered “complex” and have any value in a piece of media!!

all movies are for children because the moving image is inherently juvenile. to be entertained by it even moreso

[cadet-abysmal]

Random tumblr blog roleplays as a philosopher. Shocks the masses by using big words just to say they think theyre better than you because you watch movies. WHHAAAAT?

[cheaphalloweencostume]

thats right

[cheaphalloweencostume]

the biggest word in this post is “entertained”

[winterhartarts]

Anyway photography, silent films, and “talkies” (moving pictures with sound) were all invented and made by adults and mostly for adults as the audience

[cheaphalloweencostume]

last time i checked its basically just Boss Baby out there. not entertaining to a high-earning professional. he’s not even actually the boss he’s a baby

even if bioessentialism was real and all trans women had some inherent advantage over cis women in sports you could not pay me to give a fuck because sports are made up. they are games people play for fun. even though we as a society invented careers around sport it is still boiled down to the fun made up game where you kick a ball. or dribble a ball. or swim in a pool. or show people how fast you can run. it’s for leisure. fun. not serious. who gives a fuck. fun. #mygame⚽️🏀🏈⚾️

Everyone on my ilya failed baseball pitch post saying that Shane would get the ick………. literally never!!!!!! Never. Not my shane. shane is in the car coming home from that game like Honey. Baseball is the worst sport in the world. They just stand there the whole time. You could do cartwheels on the clock. Can you believe they even have a League. For that. And ilya is scrolling like they are saying my throw is Weak Sauce…. They say my baby bird arms- Shane interrupting him like DON’T make me pull the car over I will have you squat me again

sorry but once you notice how often ppl use a southern accent as shorthand for being unintelligent you can never unsee it. classism is baked so deeply and why are you acting like anyone who talks the way my grandfather talks is stupid.

[liquidstar]

We need to start publicly shaming people for creating huge messes everywhere they go in stores. Retail employees should be allowed to stamp "DOUCHEBAG" on your forehead if you keep fucking up every display you see

Layered the butter instead of putting it all at the top. You're killing it Jason.

Every day I handle more money than I will ever make. Every day.

At the start of my employment, my boss showed me videos of people stealing, and we both had a chuckle about it. How silly they were! There was a camera overhead, and it’s not to watch the shoppers. See, we can’t actually stop shoplifters. They get away with it maybe nine out of ten times. But we, who are watched and tallied and witnessed? We are always caught.

At first it was hard to hold one hundred dollars bills. An amount I had never seen before. An amount that didn’t exist in my household. It’s normal now. Here is something that is not for me.

“What the hell, I’ll take another,” says the man, pondering our 200 dollar watches. What the hell. Total comes to 580 and not even a flinch in his face. I have been working for 11 hours today and made only 110 dollars. It will go to my rent. Today I work for free, it feels. When I get my check, I will have 35 dollars left for food and saving.

The six hundreds he hands me go into the cash register. For a moment, I imagine having money. Then I put it away, counting out his change.

I know for a fact we sell our products for double what they are worth. That I could be making commission. That they could hand me those 580 dollars and change my life and not even mark the difference in their checkbooks. He’s not the only sale they make today, but I am the reason they made it. He’s not the only one spending 600 dollars, but if I hadn’t spent two hours with him telling me about his life, he wouldn’t have spent any. I go home. I don’t own a watch.

I have watched and rewatched a video on how to make salmon four ways. My shopping list is always the same. Pasta. Rice. Tuna. If I can afford butter it was a good week. I dream of the world I will never walk in, where I can throw the best fish fillet in the cart with a shrug. I hold hundreds in my hand and look up at the camera. I put them under the cash drawer.

I go to work. I scrap together my savings. I eat my bowl of rice slowly. My manager takes a paid week off from work just for his birthday. He owns a yacht. 

I’m not worth the cost of a watch.

i wrote this while i was working at orlando’s walt disney world parks.

i was part of their college program. i moved to the state for it. they legally owned the building i was living in and still charged me rent. i ostensibly was being charged to work for them. it was a 2 bedroom apartment and they placed 6 adult women in it in forced triples.

as many as one in ten disney employees have experienced homelessness while working for the company. despite huge efforts to unionize, strike, or otherwise demand fair treatment; disney has refused to increase employee quality of life.

disney admits publicly that a good portion of their success is because the employees (“cast members”) are dedicated, passionate, and selfless. this is never reflected in pay. even “face” characters (ie those that are princesses etc) make barely above a minimum wage.

at the time that i worked there, i made $8.50 an hour. at one point i was asked to create a human shield around a bag because a bomb dog had alerted to it. for eight fucking dollars an hour.

i now work a very cushy office job. i have bought the salmon and cooked it all four ways.

i go to the store. i am nice to the person behind the counter. she looks up at the camera while she counts out my change. there is nothing fundamentally different about her and i.

we are both worth more than the watch, anyway.

If you ask me I don't want "good Christians" in government to counter the "bad Christians" I just want a separation of church and state like they promised us in third grade

imagine breaking up with someone when you’re both in your early 20s and they take your ship and fuck off, and then you become the best dressed in the galaxy and the leader of an entire city and live in a palace. and then your ex shows up to ask a favor and he’s like 35 living in that ship and hanging out with 22 year olds and using 5-in1 soap. that’s how lando calrissian feels

[nepofledgling]

regarding some tags on this post: 5-in-1 soap includes toothpaste and aftershave. Hope that clears things up

do you guys ever read a wookiepedia paragraph that hits you like a truck

[willowcrowned]

only half of those are real words

[willowcrowned]

this is the guy it’s talking about by the way

[willowcrowned]

wookiepedia editors are stronger than anything if I had to write the sentence “His body released a vanilla-like smell” about something that looked like a dachshund a mushroom and someone’s severed big toe got slammed together in a nuclear reactor I would walk into the woods and never come back

[nevertheless-moving]

Droopy McCool out there living his best life just to get his personal olfactory data leaked and then be ruthlessly dragged over it

[atagotiak]

Walk into the woods and never come back? Like how Droopy walked into the desert and never came back?

I hate star wars so much it’s unreal
