ain't you my babe?

Maybe in this season, drunk and sentimental, I’m willing to admit a part of me, crazed and kamikaze, ripe for anarchy, loves still.

i think i’m missing your name on your blog 🥺 i see ur posts and am like ah yes nuhfuhwimb back with the quality content

not me seeing this after almost two months of no activity whatsoever on this blog lmao 🙃 gotta love that inconsistency, babey!! in any case, my blog name is 'nfwmb' after the Hozier song of the same title! It stands for 'nothing fucks with my baby,' and it's great! 10/10 recommend. lmk when you've taken a listen so we can both cry over hozier's gross miscalculation that life will, in fact, always be there to fuck w anyone and everyone, yay!

“I don’t understand how people could still vote for him after everything—”

Because every woman who’s worked literally anywhere knows that people will do backflips to choose anyone over a woman who is qualified to do her job.

the thing is I already know that men and society at large hate women. I know that young men in particular increasingly skew right and towards misogyny (I've read the articles, although all I really need to do is spend any time on any part of the internet to see the evidence). but then every so often something like this happens where it still somehow surprises me. like my god.. they really hate us this much.

it was a lose-lose for non usamericans anyway. but i feel for everyone plain and regular that's gonna have their life be living hell for the next four years. leave your house more and seek out your own community and build your own collaborative space with your closest neighbours and look out for each other as the paradigms shift. theres nothing youll need more than understanding and generosity and solidarity & nothing youll regret about extending them to the regular people youll live around for the next four years

“We shall overcome. Deep in my heart I do believe we shall overcome. And I believe it because somehow the arc of the moral universe is long, but it bends towards justice.”

"This country hates women." Nuh uh. Say the quiet part out loud. This country hates black women. This country hates black women. Why run from it when we are literally looking at evidence of it right now? People would rather vote for a white male felon, rapist, and traitor than they would for a highly educated sitting Vice President, who happens to be a black woman. Say the quiet part out loud and, for once in your lives, stop goddamn running from that truth.

This may seem silly but this is what I needed to hear in 2016, so I’m going to say it now. It’s okay to feel hopeless or angry or scared or betrayed or even just mildly nauseous. However you feel is the right reaction for you. You’re just not allowed to kill yourself. You are too good, too valuable, too important for this to be the thing that takes you. Yes the world is a mess, but taking one good person out of it isn’t going to make it any better.

So take care of yourself. Wrap yourself in that blanket. Get that hug. Eat that mug cake. Find your life preserver whatever it may be and keep going. You are stronger than you realize.

Deciding to do something when you’re feeling defeated is hard. If all you can take care of is you today, focus on doing that. Tomorrow or a week from now you can look at what your community needs to do to weather the storm in the long term. Yes communities are hurting now, but having to grieve one more person isn’t going to make anyone’s life any better. Please keep going. Please don’t let this election take you too.

at the end of the day, this is a stupid, racist, selfish, necrotizing country

[dostoyevsky-official]

i shouldn't omit sexist. from vance's breeding fanaticism to florida's ballot rejection of abortions to the sadistic sexual hangups of osama bin laden's killer, going after young male harris voters as "concubines," psychosexual male fantasies of control and repression are fueling a reactionary movement
