I promise you haven't fucked up as badly as you think you have.
A wise mentor once said to me while I was student teaching: "Did you actually fuck it up, or did it just not go how you expected it to go?"
Life changing words.

Doing a final project in my stats class, we have to pick a subject and collect data on it. We need at least 100 data points, and I figured this blog is big enough that a poll on here could get to that pretty easily!
Doing my project on if itās more likely to be born in certain months :]
I have gotten the OK from my teacher to collect data using a Tumblr poll, btw. Iām also going to have to send her this post as proof of where I got the data from / proof I didnāt just make up the numbers. So. Behave
"Stop saying 15 year olds with weird interests are cringe, they're 15" this is true however you should also stop saying adults with weird interests are cringe because who gives a shit
To wit:
I want to share some wisdom from my high school art teacher.
In my AP Art class, there was a girl who was just starting to experiment with mixed media. At this point she was still playing around, trying to decide what direction she wanted to go with her portfolio. So one critique day, she brought in an abstract canvas with some rhinestone highlights and painted and real peacock feathers. She loved sparkles and peacock feathers so she thought sheād try introducing them a *little*. And after everyone had given some input, the teacher gave her his advice, VERY roughly paraphrased here:
āSo hereās the thing⦠I do not like this style. These are just elements that do not speak to me personally, but I see that you like them, and youāre doing interesting things with them.
āMy biggest critique is, I only merely *dislike* this piece. I want you to make me HATE it. Go crazy with the things that you like. Donāt hold back trying to make it palatable to people like me. Because I am NEVER going to like it. And if the audience does not like it, it should drive them crazy seeing how much YOU love it.ā
Her portfolio was chock full of neon colors and glitter and rhinestones and splashes of peacock feathers and it was a delight. Our teacher despised every piece lol, but she got great marks and I think even won some awards. And more importantly, she was happy and proud of the results. Because she didnāt limit herself by trying to appeal to people who were never going to enjoy what she enjoyed.
Takeaway here: be as cringe as you want. Donāt limit yourself based on other pplās tastes. Theyāre not you, and you are incredible š
This is the most inspirational thing I've read all week. Possibly all year
some moral ocd haver with 4 followers: hmmm.... i dont know... saying puppies dont deserved to be kicked seems kind of risky. what if im not as well-spoken as i think and people misunderstand me and think im actually pro puppies getting kicked? maybe this can just stay in the drafts. i dont want to come off as an deplorable force of evil
pattern ive noticed recently
> Artist only draws skinny people >> No one says anything > Artist draws all people with body fat >> They apparently have some sort of fat fetish > Artist draws everyone aggressively white / pale >> No one says anything > Artist has all POC ocs >> It's "blackwashing" (its literally their own ocs) > Artist draws all trans people as perfectly passing >> No one says anything > Artist draws trans people that dont pass as well and dont fit into the cisgender norms (women with facial hair, men with hips, etc) >> They're making caricatures with the intent of harming people
ppl only ever get upset by things that arent the super hetero cis skinny white capitalist shit / directly oppose it. like cmon.
Because I am a mentally normal human being with no unusual neuroses I find that when I am feeling especially frustrated, doing math to prove the validity of my annoyance is an excellent way of processing and expressing my feelings.
For example: I was recently trapped in long-distance transportation with a man who apparently didn't bring any tissues with him and proceeded to sniffle on a predictable cycle of one wet sniff every 15 to 25 seconds for approximately three hours. To prove that this is ridiculous and I am not overreacting by being annoyed, that is about 1 sniff for every 20 seconds, or an estimated 540 sniffs. 3 sniffs a minute. That's ridiculous.
I don't normally consider myself a petty person. I don't normally do anything with this information. It's just for me: a way of asking myself, "am I having an episode of some kind right now, or is this actually bullshit?".
Once, however, while on stationary guard with another security worker I did in fact contribute to his firing by running the calculations in a fit of internal frustration and concluding that- in addition to routinely arriving 45 minutes late to relieve me for my only lunch and toilet break- he was also absent from our assigned area of operation for a legitimate and easily-proven 78.9% of our shift.
(It was a low-traffic location. I had a lot of time. I made a pie chart.)
Anyhow, this is all to say that my personal productivity is something I take great pride in, and my brain is normal.
And- after running the numbers- it appears that while my productivity has increased 54% in the past year, compensation for this labor has increased an effective 1.5% adjusted to inflation.
And I'm mad about that.
BUT āļø at least I'm not being weird about it
I extremely don't understand whenever someone who's mentally ill and unmedicated is like "I'm afraid to go on medication because what if I can't feel good without the meds?" YOU ALREADY DON'T FEEL GOOD WITHOUT THEM. THAT'S THE WHOLE POINT OF TAKING THEM IN THE FIRST PLACE
yeah yeah rainbow capitalism is bad and whatever but like. when I was a child, being pro gay was not the popular or lucrative choice. I'm happy that times have changed.
I miss rainbow capitalism. I do. I miss when it felt like public opinion was still pro gay. I understand it was always an empty gesture, but it mattered in a sense of knowing how socially acceptable being queer is. If that makes sense.
jeez. sorry you didn't like it.
u good?
girl obviously not
Iām having a stroke
Huh, must've been the wind
*asks a question* *gets an answer* āim not reading thatā
i love that itās a carefully worded, well-written, non-inflammatory answer too. which asker wouldnāt know because they wonāt read it. i love website
you are not going to believe what they did with Books
ive said this before but it was on my old blog so I'm saying it again
dehumanizing abusers is not effective at doing anything other than make people think they're ontologically incapable of violence
it's also creating a class of people who you can abuse while telling yourself that you're Good and Moral and Not an Abuser.
if you dehumanize the caught abusers then the uncaught abusers will use their humanity as proof of innocence
if you dehumanize the hypothetical abusers you create incentives for false accusations as a means of dehumanization whenever dehumanization is desired for other reasons

gosh, isn't it interesting that this symptom is specific to men for some unknowable reason? listening and learning
why is this symptom specific to men. think
#āI HAVE BIG FEELINGSā is only allowed for toddlers#you are an adult. use your words. stop making excuses.#bet these men dont do that around their bosses or anywhere there could be consequences they care about either š
lol āhave you considered your abusive boyfriend might have ADHD? Try having some empathy once in a whileā. Great. Love it.
Seriously, āthe angry man being aggressive and physically threatening is doing so to express that he is madā. WOW ya donāt say. āBut this common abusive behavior is different because heās specialā. Bro they all think the reason theyāre abusive is special and not actually abuse or not actually about hurting you or not actually about intimidating you!
