Without fail, every time a woman is talking about how she does not want to have children and never wants to be pregnant and how medical professionals, romantic interests and family members keep trying to bulldoze her decision and keep expecting her to change her mind because motherhood is something that is expected of all women and it is abhorrent to think a woman could not desire it, a random mother spawns in the comments to be like “Well, actually, you never know! I didn’t want children and then I got pregnant and I realized I love being a mama and I have five little babies now! Could happen to you! 🥰”

Sister, keep that to yourself or make your own goddamn post, you are ignoring that woman’s central concern and belittling her, you don’t even think you’re doing it. Formerly childfree women who ended up having children and loving it are like detransitioners in the sense that there is nothing inherently wrong with changing your mind about having children or realizing you were mistaken about your gender identity but immediately weaponizing your indecision to tell people that the barriers to healthcare and the violations of their bodily autonomy and the way society ignores that person’s wishes is actually okay because you were wrong. Some people do know themselves.

in less than three years we will have adults born in the 2000’s 

[macleod]

the funny thing about this is that both people born in the 2000s are reblogging this freaking out because they arent ready to be adults and people who were born before the 2000s are freaking out about how they feel old and that it cant be happening because all people born in the 2000s are like 4

[macleod]

in less than two years we will have adults born in the 2010’s

pride month is almost over I would just like to say happy pride to boring LGBTQ people in particular. everyone expects us to be brilliant creatives and scientists and interior decorators and quirky professors and tortured artists but some of us wear nothing but Kirkland Signature clothing and watch Friends and The Office and are incapable of having an interesting conversation and that is okay. our diversity is our strength.

It’s genuinely paining me to realize that this entire fandom fell for Nezha’s persona of a bleeding heart altruistic democracy supporter. I’m a political scientist and I am unfortunately WAYYYY too familiar with the archetype of ‘man who supports democracy as a means to affirm his own political legitimacy while not giving a fuck about its participants.” You can’t authentically support democracy while degrading women and executing potential political enemies and signing over executive power to a foreign country. Please god PLEASE stop saying he was just trying to do the right thing uwu 🥺 I will explode

took this beautiful candid picture of my friends. i love them so much.

ways to make your hot, older, ambitious boss want you forever:

1. piss her off on day 1

2. dress up hot

3. leave her after you peak in your career with her

[harleychick91]

Step 4: Return after 2 decades

Step 5: Roll with the punches for a little while because YOU broke her heart

Step 6: Get invited to the Hamptons

Step 7: We all know what happened after everyone was gone….

Step 8: Save Runway

Step 9: live happily ever after running the magazine you both (now) love

megumi with chronic nerve pain and brain fog from sukuna's possession and exposure to gojo's domain is very precious to me. you must understand that this is canon to me. he takes pregabalin. he has to write things down or he'll forget them. long car rides are difficult. yuji is very patient and loving with him always.

middle school boy fans of JJK do not understand how fucking romantic it is to have every sense tell you who someone is and then say “but both my heart and my soul know otherwise”

"lock in" is probably one of the most important phrases to enter the public lexicon in the 2020s
