I Exist Without My Consent

“Legally Blonde” meets “The Craft.” Queer. Feminist. Elderweeb. Occasionally creative. Often awkward. Juris Doctor and laughing about it.

[existennialmemes]

I long for softness. For laying my head on pillows and listening to the birds sing. For making soup for people I love. For doing my little tasks with a sense of purpose instead of obligation. For living on a planet that's not being boiled by greed.

I long for a world built for people not profit. A world that judges success by ecological stability and general prosperity of all, instead of the number of zeros in a bank account.

I long for a world guided by cooperation & kindness instead of competition & avarice. I long for a world that's not at the mercy of tyrants.

i’ve said it before and i’ll say it again: what we want is for these things to be run like a HOUSEHOLD… a home. A household still has a budget and an income and resources to manage; all the moving parts are the same but the focus is different.

a business will let every person in it die a terrible death if it makes the business profit. A household will spend it’s last dollar to keep the people in it safe and healthy.

A household will use money as a resource to add value to the lives of the people in the household. A business will use people as a resource to add monetary value to the business

We don’t want a government run like a business, we want a country run like a household. Because we live here.

companies are delusional if they think consumers don't notice shrinkflation. less food in the package, less medicine in the jar, less whatever in the wherever, it doesn't matter where and it's almost always noticeable. like i just finished one box of medicine and we opened another allegedly identical one that we just bought and lo and behold, the four middle medicine segments were gone from the package. they took out four pills from the same sized box and sold it at the same price without any indication on the box other than the small number in the corner. ridiculous

I bought a carton of my favorite tomato soup last week and noticed that the nutrition facts looked weird. So I compared the new one to the mostly empty carton already in my fridge.

The serving size was the same, but the calories per serving had gone down by like 15. Odd. The ingredients list previously listed tomato as the first ingredient, and then water. Now water is first. They’re watering down the fucking soup and charging the same for it. I’m so fucking done.

This sort of thing is also really infuriating when you work in a kitchen or make bulk food for serving- in my field, everything is done by weight and calculated to the calorie (public school cafeteria) and all recipes need to be approved by a board before we can make them. They're standardized, by fucking law.

So we should know how many boxes of product it should take to make x amount of servings, right?

Tell me why for the last two years, every time we make mashed potatoes with the supposedly same dehydrated mix, we need more and more mix to reach our numbers? Supposedly, one carton should make 77 servings- it's made 77 servings for the last five years.

So why are we suddenly only getting 70 out of the box on average now? We're making it the exact same way every time. We make this recipe every other week. Why is it noticeably different.

We have to weigh everything to get accurate serving counts for governmental records and reimbursement from the government.

Why are the bags of frozen berries that say five pounds on every packags only weighing out to 4.3 pounds at best? We aren't draining them, they should weigh at least 4.9 because that's normal in the margin of error and the bags weigh nowhere near the difference to make it up. Now we won't have enough to make our target serving count bc we only ordered enough for about fifty extra servings like we always do.

Why is the chicken nugget brand we've been buying for years from the same brand suddenly way fucking smaller? The serving we use is 6 pieces bc legally we have to offer two grams of protein for a menued meal at the highschool level- so has our serving size changed without them telling us? The box doesn't say it's changed but we notice this sort of thing because we do the same menu every couple of weeks.

It's infuriating to have to make up the work because companies are trying to be fucking sneaky about this shit.

stop letting miserable people on the internet convince you that you must have a concrete, well-constructed opinion on everything that has ever existed.

"But 22 episodes is too much to binge in one session!"

Perhaps we should not consume our entertainment like an eating disorder.

Have something to look forward to every thurday for half a year. A week to build up excitement and theories between episodes (or to yk, be too busy to watch). Time to create art about it.

[geardrops]

time to let things find their audience, time for fandoms to build up (time for fandoms to maintain their momentum)

Usagi is in her Sailor Moon form, Mamoru is in his Tuxedo Mask form but missing his mask and hat, and Fiore is in his true alien form. Usagi is kissing Mamoru and he is looking at her as Fiore leans his face against Mamoru's shoulder. Usagi and Fiore are holding either end of Sailor Moon's wand between them, in front of Mamoru.
