Alright kids say it with me
My thoughts don’t make me a bad person
My feelings don’t make me a bad person
My thoughts, feelings, and impulses only exist inside my head, and none of it matters unless I act on it
Nobody can see my thoughts or emotions
The only things anyone can see and judge me on are my actions
There’s no such thing as a thought crime
thank u
You can have harmful beliefs and harmful impulses and harmful urges and not be evil. You can make yourself aware that these things are harmful and take steps to correct yourself and not be evil. You can walk around with the urge to kick puppies all goddamn day and as long as you are capable of redirecting that impulse to something benign then it doesn’t matter. I don’t know how else to say this
Yes, but you are missing the part, where this is okay for everybody, except for me.
As someone who has struggled with that exact thought, I personally try to kick it back with “if it’s weird to think I’m specially and uniquely better than everyone else, it’s equally weird to think I’m specially and uniquely worse”
Research has shown that pleasure affects nutrient absorption. In a 1970s study of Swedish and Thai women, it was found that when the Thai women were eating their own (preferred) cuisine, they absorbed about 50% more iron from the meal than they did from eating the unfamiliar Swedish food. And the same was true in the reverse for the Swedish women. When both groups were split internally and one group given a paste made from the exact same meal and the other was given the meal itself, those eating the paste absorbed 70% less iron than those eating the food in its normal state.
Pleasure affects our metabolic pathways; it’s a facet of the complex gut-brain connection. If you’re eating foods you don’t like because you think it’s healthy, it’s not actually doing your body much good (it’s also unsustainable, we’re pleasure-seeking creatures). Eat food you enjoy, it’s a win-win.
what
no seriously
what?
PLEASURE IS A NECESSARY PART OF HUMAN HEALTH, BOTH PSYCHOLOGICALLY AND PHYSICALLY
this is why you should be eating your chips with salsa and guac instead of beating yourself up for not eating a salad with tomato and avocado (unless you are a salad bitch like me then enjoy both of them!)
here’s a recent systemic review of all the research done on the subject
for those of you wondering if the studies cited above are legit and if so where we can read about them, here’s a link to one of the (more than a dozen!) papers written on the topic of nutrient absorption and how you eat your food:
Previously reported levels of iron absorption from common Southeast Asian meals composed of rice, vegetables, and spices were too low to be

Hey guys! I'm sure later I will reblog our official advertisement, but for now here's something on my personal page.
My friends and I have a DC comics roleplay server on Discord! It's for players ages 18 and older (it isn't focused on nsfw, but we're all 19-25 and feel weird rping with kids.)
We allow OCs but currently lack some big canon characters! Currently, we're looking for...
- Tim Drake/Red Robin
- Dick Grayon/Nightwing
- Stephanie Brown/Spoiler
- Barbara Gordon/Oracle
- Talia Al Ghul
- Koriand'r/Starfire
- Joker
- Harvey Dent/Two Face

dear usamerican high schoolers looking for a way to resist fascism: sit through the pledge of allegiance.
no getting up. no looking at the flag.
everyone will be looking at you. you'll be sweating like a fucking hippopotamus. your teacher will sternly tell you to get up. you'll feel stupid and that maybe its not worth it because you're just a kid in a classroom. but I'm here to remind you that there are no real life consequences to detention. there are however real life consequences to resisting a thoughtless performance of nationalism.
Hello 👋,
I hope this message finds you well. My name is Aziz, and I’m reaching out with a heartfelt plea to help my family find safety and reunite with our mother. 😞
The ongoing war in Gaza has torn my family apart. My mother and newborn sister are stranded in Egypt, while I, along with the rest of my sex family members, am trapped in the midst of the genocide in Gaza. We have not only been separated but have also lost our home and are enduring unimaginable hardships. 💔
Your support can make a difference. Whether by reading our story, donating, or sharing our campaign with others, you can help us reunite, find safety, and start anew. 🙏🕊
Thank you, from the depths of my heart, for your kindness, compassion, and solidarity during this difficult time. ❤🍉

they should invent a grief that doesn’t define you in new and strange ways for the rest of your life
Something I think has to be considered here is that "hanging out with your friends" is, like most things kids do, a contingent activity. It requires parents to allow it.
And increasingly parents are absolutely unwilling to let their kids out of their sight. Everything must be managed or supervised.
I'm an older millennial. My niece and nephew are ten and seven respectively. They live in the same housing development my brother and I grew up in. Lots of kids their own age there, and woodland with town-maintained paths to wander in.
When I was seven I thought nothing of telling my mom "Mom, I'm going out" and getting on my bike and going wherever. Maybe my friend Steve was home. Maybe Priscilla was climbing up that one cool half-fallen tree in the forest. Maybe I'd just pile rocks in the creek.
Fast forward three and a half decades. My brother was complaining to me the other day that my niece wants to hang out with one of her friends all the time and he and said friends parents just don't have time to arrange it all. It turns out her friend lives in the same neighborhood, a quarter mile away.
And I'm like "Why are you arranging anything? Why aren't they capable of coming and going as they please? She can get on her bike and ride there."
He looked at me like I'd proposed throwing his precious angel into a shark tank. Let her wander alone? Unsupervised? Just... out there?
It also turns out, by the way, that my niece is a poor cyclist because she isn't allowed out on her bike without my brother or his wife with her.
My brother and his wife are not unique in this. I have never, ever had a conversation with parents in my age cohort who aren't raising their kids far more restrictively than we ourselves were raised. Everything is monitored. You call them out on it and the near-universal response is "It just isn't safe out there."
Now, my niece and nephew are a bit younger than teens... but with teens it gets even worse, because then their parents are still paranoid about what could happen to them, but also suspicious about what their kids will use their new teen bodies and brains to do to THEMSELVES or to others.
I wonder what percentage of the parents in that survey would be willing to, if their kids asked for the car keys to go hang out with their friends, would hand them over without a down-to-the-second itinerary, a precise list of who will be present, and a stern admonishment that they can track the car on GPS so watch out, mister. I wonder that very much.
Teens have limited agency. They have no money and their lives are controlled. You want to know why they're not doing something? Probably because their parents don't want it done.
And all this is without even getting into "maybe they're hanging out online. Why is being on a group video call in Discord talking about nothing in particular for three hours considered more problematic than hanging out at the mall talking about nothing in particular for three hours?"
(Both my local malls ban unescorted teens, by the way.)
I am an elder millennial who is also a parent and let me tell you: this is not how we want to raise our kids. This is a lifestyle that has been imposed from the top down by an extreme surveillance state. My kids have cell phones, in theory they should be able to wander wherever they want and call for a check in or a ride or whatever, but the truth is that if anyone saw a kid under ten roaming unaccompanied by an adult they would call CPS and if they were over ten they'd call the cops on the kids. There is no longer any community. Neighbors don't talk. Everyone is suspect. This is in spite of the fact that rates of violent crime, especially involving minors, are lower than they ever were back in the 80s and 90s when I was growing up (and a majority of those crimes it turns out we not committed by strangers, but but trusted people that knew the children).
When we lived in town we were literally across the street from a park with a play ground. I could stand on my front porch, see the playground, and call my kids in for dinner. But the one time I let them wander over on their own (with instructions to stay together and come home before dinnertime) another parent at the park called the cops to come knock on my door!!
The only way my kids have been able to have more freedom was moving out to the middle of no where so they can roam the woods behind our house. I can't even begin to unravel how to turn the culture around and allow kids to just be kids in the outside.
when i was fourteen i took a bus across town with my thirteen year old brother to go to san diego comic con. we were back well after dark. when my mom was fourteen she and her siblings roamed the wilds of the san francisco bay area and didn't come home for dinner often because their mom couldn't always afford to feed everyone.
my niece is fourteen and when i took her to the renaissance fair it was explicitly against the rules for teens under EIGHTEEN not to be ACCOMPANIED by an adult.
'fuck that,' i said. 'come find me if you need more cash.'
imagine being seventeen!!! and treated like some disruptive helpless toddler. AT A REN FAIRE.
I look young for my age.
I drove myself to Costco to buy myself groceries.
One of the employees thought I was an unaccompanied minor and called security on me.
I was 28.
She thought I was 15.
I showed security my license and they left me alone and told the employee to check fist next time.
I’m lucky she didn’t call the actual cops.
I used to walk to grocery stores with friends for fun at 15 without issue, but now as an adult I can’t actually grocery shop alone.
My ex-mother-in-law works for CPS and had several kids she’s removed from homes because parents let their kids play outside. When I brought up how I used to play outside unsupervised and often without even a friend group she responded that CPS should have been called. I told her my mom used to work for CPS, wtf. She was not swayed. She and my mom are the same age.
Kids just don’t have any freedom to exist anymore.
