"cozy bookstore" "cozy cafe with a bookshelf" "omg imagine if there was a place you could just sit and read at" we have this its called the library. you guys want to go to the library. the two college libraries near me have cafes inside and they are open to the public. people need to go to the library
i dont consider myself a 'fashion guru' by any means but one thing i will say is guys you dont need to know the specific brand an item you like is - you need to know what the item is called. very rarely does a brand matter, but knowing that pair of pants is called 'cargo' vs 'boot cut' or the names of dress styles is going to help you find clothes you like WAAAYYYY faster than brand shopping
this also goes for aesthetic or -core titles. 'y2k tank top' is going to get you resellers and fast fashion brands advertising to people looking to meet a current trend. 'thin strap crop tank top' is going to get you a diverse group of results and not upcharge you to hell and back
additionally, shop second hand when you can, second hand and thrift sites typically organize clothes by the cut and color. theyll be more affordable than a depop seller curating you a style to sell you
useful terminology for different kinds of clothing shapes :)
here are more terms! these are all from enérie. it is a really good blog that has lots of fashion terminology and it's a good mix of menswear and womenswear! they also have a book as well compiling all their diagrams. you could also look into getting a visual fashion dictionary for terms as well!
I’m trying to do pen and ink art and I remembered why I never do pen and ink art

I do think the Hank Green AI thing makes it abundantly clear that if you have ADHD or any other mental illness and/or you are prone to addiction you need to avoid AI at all costs. This shit will rope you in, and if you have a mental illness that say, starves your brain of dopamine, you're gonna be extra susceptible to that. I won't use AI for a lot of reasons but one of the big ones is knowing how it would fuck with my ADHD and bipolar. Like yes, it's bad for the environment and giving money to rich scumbags and runs on plagarism, but even more than all that, it's straight up not safe at all and you really shouldn't use it if for no other reason than to protect yourself from whatever the fuck it might do to you.
good morning
You’ll need the link!
We got Musk off our land. Let's build a monument to remind him he's a sad little b**** with no friends.
Talking to friends with inept parents is crazy. No wonder they’re like this if their parents kept fumbling
“I’m having trouble adapting to my adult responsibilities” well no wonder, nobody raised you 😭😭😭
Hot tip for future parents: you actually have to guide your kid to adulthood. Feeding them and waiting for them to grow up is not enough since they are not house plants. A little more thought and care is required.
for those lacking certain "adulting" skills, especially things around the house, check out:
mom, how do i...?
and dad, how do i...?
^ there are tons of other resources but these two will teach you some personal hygiene, home or apartment repairs, easy recipes and basic cleaning techniques, even how to schedule doctor's appointments
if youre a renter i cannot recommend the trans handyma'am enough, mercury is a lifesaver, and her channel and accounts are always accepting new questions
there are so many resources, a lot that you dont have to even ask for, just know how to look 🩷 much love
Old words I think we should bring back
Prithee: shortened version of “I pray thee”, basically means “please”
Wottest: to understand, in a sentence you would say something like “I wottest not”
Marry: an exclamation meaning “indeed”. We could use more fun exclamations imo. You’d say something like “Do you like my drawing of my OC?” “MARRY!!!”
Anon: meaning “later” or “at another time” or “soon”. So you would say like “I’ll do it anon”
Beshrew: means “to curse someone”. Not witchy curse, more like “I hate you and hope bad things happen to you”. Can you imagine being in a fight with someone and ending it with “Whatever, I beshrew you”
Troth: it’s a little hard to explain this one, it basically means your honor/faith, means “you have my word” when use it in a sentence like “by my troth”
Good-den: another way of saying “good morning”
Haply: “by accident/coincidentally” or “maybe”
there might be more if so I’ll edit this and add them :3
Today’s old word I’m using now, is fink
It means an informer, a strike breaker, or a contemptible person
AMERICANS!!! DO NOT DO THIS TO FLOCK 'SECURITY' CAMERAS. REPOST AND SPREAD THE WORD
do not get IR blocking fabric or thick wool to cover your nose and mouth
do not get IR blocking sunglasses since facial recognition has moved up to targeting and identifying the upper face
do not avoid having your phone or any bluetooth devices around these cameras as they can detect and track those signals
do not buy cheap green lasers 1 milliwatt or above from etsy or walmart or amazon (i will not try and find a link if you ask)
do not use them to fry those fuckers from a distance damage the delicate inner sensors by pointing the beam in the lenses
AND unless you want to cost Flock more money in repairs, do not buy a small circle saw or a reciprocating saw and cut down the pole
OR do not climb said poles, spray paint on the solar panels, cover the lens with paint or a sticker, then use bolt cutters to sever the wires
when doing all these things, DO NOT avoid using latex gloves as fingerprints can leak through
DO NOT USE DEFLOCK TO FIND FLOCK SURVEILLANCE CAMERAS NEAR YOU
remember, flock is for YOUR safety :) even though crime rates have not gone down since they were implemented, they're being abused to track down exes and s/os, and many face pools or houses or schools or gymnasiums! Where there are no liscence plates to be found!
DO NOT DO THESE THINGS and enjoy a life under surveillance!
enjoy living in the country where 87,000 of these cameras were used to track down a woman who got an abortion!
enjoy living in the country where there's no consequences for a flock exec to watch a inside of a gymnastics place without their knowledge!
Remember, this is their American Dream.
EDIT: 53 cities have cancelled contracts with flock and are now turning to Axon, in which 🎺 invested 1-5 million dollars earlier this year. Do not limit your focus to one brand.

progesterone tracker is here.
oestrogen tracker is here.
testosterone tracker is here.
if you experience any disability or neurodivergency please fill out this form. it is equally important to me to have data that says progesterone doesn't affect autism or testosterone doesn't make you hard of hearing or whatever, as it is to document changes. so if you have any health condition. please fill it out. even if it to say "no change". i am begging you all.
and if you can't. please. please do reblog. i need this to be as big as humanly possible. it is the best way forwards to inform decisions.

Sex isn't real.
I've been getting increasingly frustrated by the idea "there are more than two sexes." You are still doing the thing where you draw rigid lines and there will still be people who fall through the cracks.
There are no sexes. Sex is defined by a bunch of arbitrary traits, some of which you will have no idea about unless you get expensive testing.
Intersex is only a useful term because the current world has drawn these lines and made two boxes "male" and "female." If there were no sexes, there would be no need for the term because there can't be subversion of rigid definitions if there aren't rigid definitions to subvert.
So what are you suggesting we do, just abolish all mentions of sex?
I think that for language to be the most useful and communicative, it has to be clear and concise. So mentioning what traits you are talking about explicitly is the way to go. Some examples:
People who menstruate may go on birth control in order to manage their cycle.
Those with a prostate should regularly get checked for prostate cancer, especially after age 50.
Oestrogen is a crucial part of having healthy bones, a rapid decrease in oestrogen levels makes someone more at risk of osteoporosis.
Facial wash for beards.
Taking testosterone after going through oestrogen puberty won't make you taller but it can make your face seem more angular.
People who don't produce any or enough hormones naturally have to take hormones for their health.
Internal condoms and external condoms.
Got a little carried away but you see my point. It is so much easier to just list the actual traits you mean than to try and list every type of person affected.
A person can have xx chromosomes and have a penis, testes, testosterone dominant body and all. Now tell me, is this person transgender? Why do you think that? Is this person intersex? What do you think they're assigned sex at birth is?
Trick question. Anything you answered was wrong. This person could be any of those and you wouldn't know and you shouldn't care.
A person can have xy chromosomes, a vagina, large breasts, and lots of body and facial hair. Are they trans? Which HRT do you think they're taking, if any? Are they intersex? What gender were they raised as?
Another trick question. You're wrong, no matter what you answered.
Do you see how there are so many situations where a person can have a certain sex trait? Male and female, as terms, lump together a group of traits that don't mean anything in conversation!
And what even does "male" mean? To doctors at a birth it means a baby with genitals longer than a certain amount of cm. At what threshold does someone go from "male" to "female"?
There's chromosomes, there's hormone levels, there's a bunch of organs that are all related to sex, there's facial hair, there's breast size, there's a whole spectrum of genitalia.
When does someone cross that line? What's the tipping point?
Anyway anyway my long ass rant is over. Thank you for reading. Stop using male and female when you could just name the traits you're actually talking about.
It's really fucking weird to try to figure out the exact anatomy of every person you meet.
And while we're at it, stop using amab/afab. They're really not useful discussion terms and they don't mean anything.
Watching a tv show where this guy is yearning for his wife and I pointed and said “gaaaaaaaay”
"OR WOMEN IN GENERAL"???? HELLO
Reblog to bully people who don't like female characters or women in general off the internet.
Common trans misconceptions (so you don't have to learn the hard way)
Binding won't make you board-flat. There's still mass there, but it will make it less noticeable
You CAN still get pregnant while on T, and you CAN still get people pregnant while on E.
Not all medical professionals are transphobic, but some are and a lot of them are not super informed
The only thing you need to be trans is a gender identity different from the one you were assigned at birth. You don't need dysphoria or hormones or anything, just that.
It doesn't matter how or when you figured it out, your experience is valid!
I still like the term parental unit that we used to use as a joke in middle school and high school. Did everyone else do that or was it just a my social circles thing?
Anyways telling the kids to go collect their parental units at the end of an event is a) funny b) gender neutral and c) just refers to the person currently doing your parenting
Also if you’re on joking terms with your parents “greetings, child” “greetings, parental unit” is a top tier greeting. Makes you sound like robot aliens.
