Four Women by Jeffrey Catherine Jones
i think you should have to come out as cis or straight. stop assuming it's the default and everything else is a deviation.
you can reblog this btw. make cis people feel uncomfortable about assuming they are "normal" and we are "other". make straight people feel uncomfortable assuming they are "regular" and we are "deviant".
oughhh i love women i do. i really really like women a lot
temperaturebreaking play. oh sweetie are you cold? awww thats a shame. this isn’t even very much winter! you definitely don’t need more coat than that; i’m gonna wear shorts actually. it’s pretty nice out, i’m not sure what your issue is, but your constant shivering and goosebumps are really cute
You listen to music regularly? Why? Have you even tried quitting? Could you quit? You get music stuck in your head? Wow. You're so ruined and music brained. I bet you make your partners listen to music with you when you have sex. Music addiction has really ruined a whole generation. You know it's not realistic to expect reverb in real life, right? You're probably so desensitized that you don't even feel anything anymore when you hear a bird singing that it wants some fuck.
I don't have a problem with people listening to music per se, but I do have a problem with the music industry exploiting & mistreating artists.
Personally, I abstain from all music in order to keep my hands clean but really music should just be illegal outright to protect musicians from abuse.
holy shit this person in the notes
Oh my god calling myself a lesbian isn't fucking shoving myself into a box. No amount of anarchism is going to make me attracted to men
The destruction of the white supremacist cishetero patriarchy is not going to make me any less of a dyke. Your stupid fuckin' stateless utopia is not going to change my sexuality.
In your perfect world where we don't have labels I'm still not going to be attracted to (nor will I desire sexual advances from) men, and I deserve a way to communicate that.
Born to see a dick for the first time in college and think, “ew, that thing is weird” forced to have intimate knowledge of how one looks and feels down to the smallest minutia
This is the reality all maids face
Did more of the labyrinth hrt fic ever get written......
I didn’t realize there was interest! I forget what I published here but I have like 400ish words of story and 1900 words of outline, so not much.

On the 22nd of May, China announced a reform to the hukou system, meaning that its 357 million migrant workers will now be able to register for social insurance programs wherever they work. The system had previously registered each citizen with their place of birth and tied their access to social programs, such as healthcare, public education, and social housing to that specific area
It is impossible to understand the hukou system without understanding what it prevented. When Reform and Opening Up began in the late 1970s, 83 percent of China’s population lived in the countryside. Over the following four decades, more than 600 million people moved from rural areas to the cities, such that the urbanisation rate has now hit 68 percent.
In almost every other developing country, migration on this scale has produced vast slums: the hypercities of the Global South – Mumbai, Nairobi, Lagos, São Paulo, Dhaka, Cairo, Mexico City – are ringed by sprawling informal settlements, and across the Global South slum growth has consistently outpaced urbanisation since the 1970s.
China has managed to avoid this. Walk through Shanghai or Beijing – each with over 20 million inhabitants – and the pervasive slums and homelessness common to comparably-sized cities elsewhere are conspicuously absent. The hukou system was central to this achievement: by regulating the pace and direction of migration, it prevented a chaotic flood into a handful of megacities whose services and housing could not have coped.

While China's been progressively removing hukou limits for smaller cities of under 3 million residents for years, this is now a nationwide initiative
The contrast with the trajectory of the Western capitalism is stark. While China is moving to extend social insurance to – and improve pay and conditions for – its couriers, drivers and other platform workers, the dominant trend in the West runs in precisely the opposite direction.
In Britain and the US, the gig-economy giants have waged a sustained legal and political campaign to deny their workers the status of employees altogether – the better to avoid paying for sick leave, pensions, holiday pay or even the minimum wage.
Uber fought all the way to the UK Supreme Court in 2021 in an unsuccessful attempt to classify its drivers as self-employed; Deliveroo riders were denied collective bargaining rights by the same court in 2023; and in California, the gig companies spent over $200 million on a 2020 ballot measure, Proposition 22 – the most expensive in the state’s history – specifically to exempt themselves from treating their drivers as employees.
Where the logic of a socialist system, even amid the complexities of a vast developing economy, pushes over time towards the extension of social protection to all working people, the logic of capital pushes relentlessly in the other direction: towards the erosion of those protections in the name of profit.
The steady dismantling of hukou barriers is, in the final analysis, a reflection of a system oriented towards human welfare rather than private accumulation.

why are you so biased in favor of trans women and hate anyone who isnt one
reblog if youre biased in favor of trans women and hate anyone who isnt one
my endochronologist recommended I get a 4D neovagina so now I have to do time dilation
the problem is when gay historical romance became omg the duke can get gay married too and not and then the protagonist ran into all of her exes at the socialist rally in the middle of london
what if the riddler was a girl. has anyone thought of this
sometimes I have to stop myself from posting shit like "who made replacing a bike chain so erotic" because I remember the number of people who see my posts and I have to take a step back and reconsider my choices. sometimes I have to hide my true and sincere thoughts in a post about how I'm not posting them because it is funnier this way
artist's impression
whatever. it's just reaching between all its delicate parts to wrench out its guts with lots of sweating and straining. while it's upside down and immobilised. and then it's just taking the slick and shiny new chain and feeding it gently through gears and between metal before pulling it taut until the derailleur is extended and the chain clicks into place and can no longer be removed. I; think I'm bicycle. I mean bisexual
forgot what website I'm on apparently. peace and love on pervert planet
the fact that "eco" and "ethical" are two separate concerns in the global north, and that "eco" is a much more popular concern, with many "eco" products being made in actual sweatshops, is a big part of why i am The Joker
if you think this is an exaggeration or splitting hairs where it doesn't matter:
i used to work at a Local Organic Produce store that's popular with the lefties in my city who are interested in food justice. i quit for a lot of reasons, mostly the boss, but something i will always remember is one of our suppliers coming in to drop off produce, being told her check wasn't ready, and her laughing and responding it didn't matter -- even a low bank account was more than enough to pay the migrants who picked her produce. i am not filling in any blanks here. she said this.
after quitting, this was a common story i told people about my time there. some then became annoyed at me, acting like i was a wokescold trying to undermine the store's "eco" mission with unrelated "ethical" concerns. but, like -- if food justice isn't for the people making food, who the fuck is it for?
like, don't get me wrong. my contention here is that the things go hand in hand, and that something which is unethical isn't actually eco. after all, humans are a part of the fucking ecosystem, and if a product can only be made by unsustainably exploiting humans, then it's unsustainable. doesn't matter which chemicals were used in making it, or whether or not animals were factory farmed.
they *cannot* be separated. a product cannot be either eco or ethical — it must be both. a product that is made through human suffering cannot be eco for the reasons you said; a product that causes human suffering by contributing to the destruction of the ecosystem cannot be ethical. it must be both and we must insist on both
