🌱 EXTREMELY ROBUST SCALLIONS 🌱

do NOT scroll past the scallions. these are extremely robust. i did not seek them out, they were placed before me.

the produce misters had just run. the bundles were tight. the whites were WHITE. good fortunes await.

🧅 repost within 24 hours: robust scallions

🧅 repost within 1 hour: robust scallions + minor windfall

🧅 do not repost: limp scallions. flaccid stalk. the celery will look at you and it will know.

a man in Fresno scrolled past. his scallions went to seed the same evening. his dog stopped making eye contact.

a woman reposted immediately. she found $40 in a coat. her scallions have not wilted since March.

I AM NOT SAYING IT’S THE SCALLIONS. I’m saying look at them. good fortunes await. 🌱

the reason sex scenes exist in fiction is because sometimes people have sex but also to find out what the characters are lying to everyone including themselves about by wrapping that agonising vulnerability in a treat like giving medicine to a dog

Actually finished binding this like a month ago but only just now got around to taking a nice photo (which was promptly crunched into oblivion by tumblr, oh well). Machine pieced, hand-quilted, machine-bound. Letters are from All Well Workshop's Patchwork Alphabet though, if I may take a moment to brag, I designed the apostrophe myself

okay. here is my breakfast from before time began

but like i do have this deep-seated unease that my body hair, especially my inner thigh hair, is inappropriate in public. but it extends to all leg hair and to armpit hair. i think body hair is associated with a naturalized aggressive male sexuality. women can show our shaved armpits and shaved legs because we remove that, but men typically don’t show off their body hair in professional contexts except in some blue collar work where heat makes it necessary. but it’s scandalous to see it on a woman because she’s violating the artificially enhanced sex differences that patriarchal sexuality depends on for its erotic charge. body hair is sexually explicit and aggressive on women, and the societal response is disgust because misogynists are stupid about sexuality but clever about power.

but i power through and wear my bathing suit showing it all because it’s literally fine

the worst part of summer is that people get sooo comfortable expressing their disgust at having to see other people’s bodies. they’re always complaining about wrinkly old men at the nude hot springs or fat women in bikinis at the beach. I hate that shit. if you’re not capable of being normal about bodies you personally don’t find attractive, just turn your head to look at something else! and if you’re not smart enough to do that, then at least do the rest of us the courtesy of suffering in silence, because we don’t wanna hear your weird comments. thanks.

Yes, please take this ice cold glass of shuttingthefuckup juice and go away. You're making things weird by being a creep.
