“I hate politics. I hate that just because I live here I’m supposed to live politics. And there’s nothing you can do. If you don’t live politics, politics will live you.”

— Marlon James, A Brief History of Seven Killings

“Her heavy hair was full of the perfume of roses and sandalwood. Beneath the languor of her heavy lids slept passionate violence. She was almost terrifyingly beautiful.”

— Renée Vivien, tr. by Jeanette H. Foster, from “A Woman Appeared To Me,”

Sexual attraction from men towards me no longer flatters me. Men can be very animalistic creatures due to our world's conditioning to letting them do as they please with no consequences. Undeveloped men will insert their genitals on anything that possess a hole to get rid of their sexual frustration, you being the target for a man who wants to simply get off is not something to feel proud of. You're basically being reduced to a walking sex toy, all your humanity is therefore removed from you. That's why for so many of them it's so easy to play games with the feelings and bodies of naive women, because they don't see you as a human worthy of respect but as simple object of sexual desire.

When men are chivalrous, caring, gentle, providing and protecting of me in all areas, then I can feel flattered. Let his actions speak for himself not his words. Self love will teach you to value respect on the way others treat you rather that how others perceive you as.

Hate to be that person, but WW3 trend on TikTok is not funny at all, especially your stupid POVs. Because no, Jessica from Chicago, you won’t have to hide in the basement to avoid being nuked and no, Kyle from LA, you won’t get drafted to the front lines. 

You again missed the whole point and managed to make this situation all about yourself, so I’m going to assure your stupid ass - this war is not going to affect you in any way, but you know who it’s going to affect? Actual people from Ukraine, who are going to lose their lives and be displaced from their homes, just like for the past 8 years. 

So congratulations on your stupidity, because it’s not about “I need a way to cope 🥺🥺🥺”, it’s about you celebrating and making fun of other people’s death.

Snufkin speaking the truth once again

[lifeafterpsychiatry]

Health is not a virtue and illness is not a character flaw or a moral failing. People who are healthy aren't healthy because they did everything right. People who are sick aren't sick because they did something wrong. Illness, both mental and physical, can hit literally anyone at any time. Good people aren't exempt from suffering, so let's kill the idea that if someone's sick, it must be because they're doing something wrong. That's not how it works. The world isn't fair like that.
