for real tho it feels exhausting that ive seen this whole "woman should be allowed to abstain from X beauty standard" -> "i perform X beauty standard, am i evil? do you think im evil? please forgive me i came up with a dozen excuses 🥺" since like 2015 (and i know its been going on longer than that) like girl thats not the poiiiiint

[strawberry-crocodile]

look me in the eyes. repeat after me. "i face societal pressure to perform this beauty standard. i should not face that pressure. i conform to this standard. i am rewarded for performing to this standard. i need to respect women who do not perform this standard. this is not about whether or not i am a sinner for wearing makeup."

[Image ID: A hand-drawn, multi-panel comic. A stick figure with a trans pride flag-colored head says "Wow, living as a trans person sure is cool". Three other stick figures tell the trans figure, "Kill yourself, you're trans". The trans figure says "Since I am human, my mental state worsens due to abuse". A caption reads "5 months later". One stick figure holds up a paper, saying "See, this study says that people that are trans are more likely to be depressed. That means that it's inherent to them being trans. We shouldn't allow them to be trans even if that means death for them". Another stick figure responds, "I've never seen a trans person so I agree". End ID.]

idk if it's pms, allergies, illness, fatigue from a few intense weeks, or all of the above--but my whole body's aching, i feel like my legs might buckle, i'm always crying, and my left eyelid has been twitching for four days

[metacarpus]

eyelid twitch and flu symptoms gone with period, now i just feel like a steaming puddle of blood (so it's business as usual)

[wutheringheightsfilm]

every day it just concerns me how little compassion people have. no compassion for those living in the global south. no compassion for immigrants. no compassion for disabled ppl. no compassion for addicts. no compassion for prisoners. no compassion for children. like holy shit ...

[wutheringheightsfilm]

i made a separate post about this but actually there are plenty of people cough white people who care about animals more than they ever do human people . not what i'm talking about make your own post

clean girl makeup is not "self expression" and the women who say that are just coping really hard

[urie]

you can use makeup for self expression. this is true and a lot of people do. but it doesnt count if the goal of your daily makeup routine is just to hide "imperfections" and use a million products just to look like you arent wearing any because you cant handle people seeing your natural face. put on some sparkly pink eyeshadow or get out of my face man
