From The Helsinki Affair, by Anna Pitoniak:

"One day, as he was texting her about the shortstop the Yankees had just traded, he thought: Why am I boring her with this? She doesn’t care about the Yankees. And then he thought: I’m telling her this because I love her."

this is the anti-defamation league’s hate symbol database. it’s massive and includes details about what symbols mean and where you might see them.

i’m a tattoo artist and use this all the time when i see a symbol i don’t recognize—better safe than sorry. it’s saved me from working with white supremacists a few times.

I'm glad to see the arrow cross (last one( there! It originates from Hungary and was used by the nazi party here, but it was banned after WWII. It barely shows up in guides/warnings like this and idk if they still use it but better safe than sorry.

ONE CAVEAT

18, in this context, stands for A-H, or Adolf Hitler.

HOWEVER

You’ll also see it a lot in Jewish spaces, especially Jewish monetary gifts or donations. The reason for this has nothing to do with Hitler, and everything to do with Hebrew esotericism. Basically: every letter in Hebrew has an alphanumeric value, and these can be added together to create auspicious numbers, provide extra connections, etc. One example of this: the alphanumeric values for “man” and “woman” put together equal the numeric value of G-d, which gives a whole new meaning to “man was created in G-d’s image” and then woman was taken out of man.

The Hebrew word for life, “chai” (it’s not pronounced like the tea, it’s more like you’re clearing your throat really hard), is made up of two letters that equal, you guessed it, 18. It is one of life’s bitter coincidences that one of our blessings can also be used by Nazis as a curse.

All of this to say: a lot of these are “oh yeah, that’s a Nazi,” but if you see an 18, look for some context first.

When I worked at Target, it was during the winter, and this guy comes up to my register with a neutral-colored beanie with a fake fur pompom on top. All embarrassed and cringing, asking me if it was a woman’s hat and if it would be weird for him to get it.

I was like, “It’s just a hat. If you like it and you wear it, it’s not a woman’s hat, it’s just your hat. You don’t need to follow what the tag says if you don’t want to.” And it was like I gave him some kind of awe-inspiring wisdom he’d never considered, and he left with that hat on his head.

More cishets need to hear and internalize this message because so many of them are avoiding things that would make them happy just because of it having a label on it for whatever gender.

[autumnyte-old]

When I was younger, I wish someone had told me straight-up that not all adults experience “a calling”. That many of them never find particular purpose in a career. That sometimes, their job is just what pays the bills and they have to seek satisfaction and fulfillment elsewhere. 

Because as an adult, this pervasive notion that there exists a perfect path for everyone, that people should love what they do, and that work is meant to function as a vehicle for fulfilling a person’s grand life destiny is not only inaccurate for many of us, it can be toxic.

The ideal is so ingrained that I have to remind myself constantly I’m not a failure because I don’t adore my job, and because I’m not rocking the world with my work. That is okay. 

Sometimes, work is just work. There isn’t always a perfect career path, magically waiting to be discovered. There might not be this THING you were born to do. Sometimes, you discover that what you really want to be when you grow up is “paid”.
