Can I fucking help you?
my senior english teacher told me that any scene with a woman in a cornfield in every piece of literature ever is about her journey to womanhood/pleasuring herself in the field and i just.... believed her

Guys,
āShe didnāt give Miranda a chance to turn on the lights. She didnāt even give her a chance to take off her coat, or ask her if she wanted a drink, or whatever it was she would have said in a situation like this. The power she had discovered in the backseat of the car ride flared up, blindingly hot.
She lunged.
Andy grabbed the lapels of the coat that had served both as a shroud and a revelation when it parted, her momentum driving Miranda backward until her shoulders hit the wood of the front door with a muffled thud.
Miranda gasped and Andy swallowed it entirely.ā

one of my favourite human songs-and-dances is when someone notices someone else is lying and, for no particular reason besides love of the game, helps them get away with the lie without ever explicitly acknowledging they noticed. nightmare social animals.
itās frustrating when youāre talking about an inherently oppressive institution that dehumanizes everyone who is subjected to it and someone is like āitās especially bad for those it is incorrectly applied to!ā as though being the intended victim of an injustice makes it less of a tragedy
been thinking about this lately after some discussions about historical marriage where people have chimed in about how extra awful it would have been for trans men forced into The Wife Role because of dysphoria. which like. yeah. but the thing about The Wife Role in the context of not having civil rights and being the property of a husband is that it is inherently dysphoria-inducing to anyone who identifies as a human being instead of an object.
[opens notes] Jesus CHRIST you people are fucking hopeless I have no fucking words
WOMEN ARE PEOPLE!!!!! ohhh my god WOMEN ARE PEOPLE what is WRONG WITH YOUUUUUU
This June was the 82nd anniversary of the sinking of SS Tanais, a cargo ship used by the Nazis to transport nearly the entire Cretan Jewish community that was torpedoed by the British, resulting in nearly everyone drowning and effectively destroying the Cretan Jewish community. The synagogues of Crete included Beth Shalom (bombed and destroyed in 1941) and Etz Hayyim, which was looted and desecrated, then occupied by squatters until the mid-1950, then served as a place to dump trash, used as a chicken pen and dog kennel. Etz Hayyim was finally restored in the years 1996-1999. It houses the oldest surviving and functional mikveh in Greece.
Throwing firebombs at Jews gathering to raise awareness for the suffering of other Jews isn't antisemitism. Calling AIPAC "dark money" when it discloses its donors and saying it "turns us against each other" isn't antisemitic. Chanting "khaybar khaybar ya yahood" isn't antisemitic. Yelling "fucking Jew pricks" at random pedestrians isn't antisemitic. Shooting up a Chanukah party isn't antisemitic. Deliberately drawing on tropes about Jews and money and political influence for votes isn't antisemitic. Telling a Jewish American politician he serves "Israeli masters" isn't antisemitic. The only two antisemitic things that have happened in the last eighty years are Elon Musk's Nazi salute and Harry Potter Goblin. Wow! Incredible!

I had someone ask me "where are the pokemon cards" and I tried to direct her to the kids section and she got really indignat and went "no. Pokemon cards. Theyre like, collectibles" and I had to go No I know what those are. Those are kids playing cards. Kids section
She was trying to look behind the counter where we keep Gold Jewelry and Gucci Purses for pokemon cards

So scary to like a mutual's post because what if they remember they hate me and then shoot me with a gun
"Love/sex is what makes us human" Wrong. It's the obsession with rectangles. look around you and count the number of rectangles you see.
#looked up and thought āthat canāt be hardā#and then my eyes widened with horror as I realized the sheer number of rectangles everywhere#Iām . Iām horrified
It's a good shape!
Itās built directly into the English language ā and a lot of other Indo-European ones, because the correlation goes way way back. The following words are all cognate with rectangle:
correct
direct
raja
rectify
rectitude
regal (also regime, reign, rex, etc.)
regulation
reich
rich
right
rule
Itās one of those deeply ingrained metaphors: something is neat & orderly IFF it is laid out in straight lines & right angles. (and why are they right angles, hmm?) This is also conflated with moral⦠well, righteousness: things āshouldā be neat & orderly. And the person in charge is Guy Who Puts Things In Straight Lines. (itās not a coincidence that the head of state and the tool you use to draw straight lines are both called rulers.)
Anyway, this all goes back to how intersecting right angles cause vampires to have seizures. The cultural fixation on rectangles outlived its usefulness once vampires went extinct, but by then it was securely lodged in the collective unconscious & weāre just stuck with it now.
