Obviously there are many things to dislike about adulthood but as someone who grew up in an abusive household for whom adulthood offered the only chance at an escape, it's incredibly important to me that i romanticize adulthood whenever possible because i know there are kids and teenagers like me out there who are seeing nothing but complaints about rent and taxes and the loneliness of living on your own and i know they're going to internalize all of that and assume it means that adulthood won't offer them the freedom and safety they've been dreaming of. So while i never want to minimize the difficulties of being an adult, i also want to highlight how incredibly nice it can be to finally have ownership of your life and your body and your time and money and food and everything else in a way that you never had before. You can choose when you wake up! You can choose what you have for breakfast! You can choose when to go to sleep or if you want to (inadvisably) stay up all night watching tv in the living room! In the living room! You can choose what to watch! These are little things, but they are worth taking pleasure in, and they are worth looking forward to.

Oh. Man. I'm in my 40s now, but can STILL remember the first apartment I lived in alone. The first week, I had nothing. NOTHING. I slept on the floor wrapped up in curtains, until a friend came to visit and was like "welp. This ain't keepin' on" and gave me a folding bed and a couple of blankets. There were part of it that were just... not fun. You know what I did, though? I made cookies. Because I wanted them, and nobody could keep me from using the kitchen. I got a cat, because nobody could tell me "no". I took long, hot bubble baths because the bathroom - and the bathtub - were MINE and nobody else's. I turned MY music up and danced around MY living room all day (but was aware of the family with children downstairs, so shut down the one person party before it got too late). I bought a cast-off couch for cheap and had friends help me bring it in, and sat on MY couch and sewed. And crocheted. And started to teach myself to knit. The only one there to tell me "no" was the kitten, and she loved playing with the yarn. There were things about it that were exceptionally hard. I was a pregnant single waitress truly struggling to pay bills and put food on the table. But that's not what stuck. What stayed with me, and what was important, was those little things that made being an adult worthwhile.

You will get out and you will get free and it still rains, sometimes, but you get to decide whether to stay in or put up your umbrella or just let it pour down your face while you stomp puddles. You get to choose. It's not paradise, but it is, in the end, yours, which is such a relief. And all the things they say about the best of life being free - that's true. You will have happiness of your own making.

They De-Tumblrized Ms. Frizzle

#how do yall whitewash a white woman

Allow me to explain:

ayellowbirds

Some will point out that the new Ms. Frizzle is canonically the old one’s younger sister, and that the old one still shows up in the new show:

they are missing the point. They are missing the point because the original is still modified, and is a minor character in the series whose role has been given over to someone who looks more like if Ariel from the Little Mermaid wanted to speak to the manager. And they are missing the point because all the characters have been given this treatment, and it gets a lot worse.

Compare the original versions:

to the new ones:

This shit, right here? This is inexcusable.

My sister, walking into my room: "So about those 'few words' of made-up language for the project..."

Me, looking up from my 8th staight hour of conlang videos, pushing aside stacks of linguistic analyses and phonetic alphabets of sub-Saharan Africa: "Don't worry, I'm almost done with the basic grammar and syntax evolution!"

My sister, backing away: "You know what, I'll come back later..."

Abolish the Electoral College

sunagirl

LOOK AT FUCKING TEXAS. IT’S FUCKING PURPLE. TEXAS IS NOT AS CONSERVATIVE AS PEOPLE THINK. Those blue spots in Texas? That’s over 60% of the state population in those like 10 or so counties. Texas ain’t red. The electoral college is skewed right because it gives equal weight to counties with vastly different populations. 40% of the population decides every electoral vote in the state. Electoral College is bullshit.

Yeah I’m smack dab in Austin and most of us so aren’t red. It’s country areas that are red. The areas that are the least educated and least social.
