WHOAH

[inkskinned]

Recently I have been poised to be a villain, and it is delightful. When he touches her in the train, I am the bitch that stops him. When she is bullying the retail worker, I'm the ungrateful wench who steps cleanly in front of her and cuts her off. When a person begins to argue in bad faith, I am the dirty bimbo who simply walks away. I unfriend and block and stare down and sigh at to my fullest discretion. It is a relief. If you seek to hurt others, this is simply a matter of efficiency for both of us. We both know that no matter how gentle and kind I am, some quality must label me broken and therefore able to be disregarded. It is easier if I speak up now and I can defend those who need defending and you can relax safely knowing I fall squarely into the loudmouthed whore section.

I have already spent too much of my life trying to make peace, believing that my patience could somehow worm into someone else's heart. I have given that up. It only works if the other person has a heart. And how often! Asserting my own voice is seen as violence. How often asking others to behave better is devious, controlling. How often I am a witch for saying: no, your actions have consequences.

What a delight! I don't have to please you. I owe you no spot at the table, no platform to speak from, no generous analysis of your meaning. You never rewarded me the same comfort. So if turning the tables constitutes blind rage, so be it.

"Don't fight fire with fire." Not any longer. Don't go around setting them, and you and I won't have a problem.

when lizzo said “self love is survival” and when hannah gadsby said “do you understand what self-deprecation means when it comes from somebody who already exists in the margins? it’s not humility. it’s humiliation” and when mitski said “i used to rebel by destroying myself, but realized that’s awfully convenient to the world. for some of us our best revolt is self preservation”

when audre lorde said “caring for myself is not self-indulgence, it is self-preservation, and that is an act of political warfare”

when Jenny Slate tweeted, “As the image of myself becomes sharper in my brain&more precious, I feel less afraid that someone else will erase me by denying me love”

Dog owners please be aware.

[teamvoorhees]

REBLOG THIS PLEASE

[vaspider]

This is Snopes-confirmed. Also be aware this is very common in sugar free food of many kinds. The retriever puppy who I know of who died of xylitol poisoning got hold of a pack of sugar-free gum.

[veterinaryrambles]

Always good to remind folks - if it has xylitol, KEEP IT AWAY FROM DOGS! It induces profound hypoglycemia and liver failure and is life-threatening :(

[ruffboi-mags]

[yespumpkindoodlesthings]

Xylitol is also the typical ingredient in sugar free candies and some baked goods. Other names, if you’re checking labels:

What other names is Xylitol known by? Birch Sugar, E967, Meso-Xylitol, Méso-Xylitol, Sucre de Bouleau, Xilitol, Xylit, Xylite, Xylo-pentane-1,2,3,4,5-pentol.

A list of brands and products containing xylitol

Hedonism as a concept is so dope and yall gotta unbrainwash your religious upbringing nostalgia and realize that life IS about kicking back and eating grapes around a fire in nothing but a swim suit and drinking margaritas. A little hedonism never hurt nobody

[alexoun-blog1]

This post makes me want to rob you

What and earn all of ten dollars?

Oh hey I haven’t yelled about voting in a while

[dancinbutterfly]

Reposting this because some of y’all need a reminding.

[prismatic-bell]

Another reminder:

VOTE YOUR WHOLE BALLOT.

A Democratic President does nothing if Congress is controlled by Republicans. Your local elections are important, too. (It took us 20 years, but you notice we don’t have issues with our sheriff out here in Phoenix now we’ve voted out Joe Arpaio.)

Don’t skip any. Look up names on your phone while you’re in the ballot booth if you have to. VOTE YOUR WHOLE BALLOT.

[dinosaurrainbowstarfish]

A PSA because a lot of people don’t know this: You CAN take your phone into the ballot booth, no one will stop you. You CAN google names from inside the ballot booth, no one will stop you. The only time you can get in trouble is, in some states, if you take a photo of your ballot. You CAN also take a long time voting. There are lots of booths usually, don’t worry about the line if you need to think about anything. Voting is not a high school exam. You’re allowed to bring your phone. Please do that in case there’s something on the ballot you don’t understand!

[elliesgaymachete]

You can also register to vote by mail! That means you can use google and take all the time you need to fill out your ballot! I don’t know how it works in other states but California specifically has made voting by mail extremely easy and hassle free and most people I know vote by mail.

[mllemagnetic]

Take your phone in there!! It is not cheating to look up the answers on this test - it is in fact encouraged in an open and free democratic society to be as educated as possible!

What People Think Being Bisexual is Like vs. What It’s Really Like.

[charlesoberonn]

Social media is wonderful because it let the common folk enjoy endless posturing, making of enemies, and flaunting of wealth and romantic prospects. All of which was previously reserved for the aristocracy.

[charlesoberonn]

What's the difference between posting a selfie at the gym knowing your highschool bully will see it and showing up to the archduke's ball with a new silk gown from Italy to oneup Janet of Salisbury?

Just an FYI for those in the US with insurance issues

[teratomarty]

Important information! Insurance coverage decisions are made by medically ignorant bean-counters. Until we can dismantle the whole shitty system, know how to scare them into submission.
