birdsohmygodbirds replied to your post: Ugh I feel like shit. It’s like I’m just sitting...

:( im sorry you’re feeling sad! people suck sometimes, and i’m sure things will get less hopeless in the future, so for now make yourself a cup of tea or whatever, let yourself cry if you need to, and wear a flower crown everywhere you can :D

Thanks, I guess it's just kind of been a bad week, Note to self: learn to make flower crowns. ^_^;

So.... I'm feeling kinda down with all the father's day stuff I'm seeing on my dash and it kinda keeps making me think of what things would be like if my dad hadn't been as awful as he was.... curiosity's a bitch.

But anyway, "Dad" Happy father's day, I guess. For the all times you weren't there for me.

so wow my english teacher really hates me. She snaps at me any time I ask for help and then says she'll get to it and never helps me and then gets frustrated when my work isn't done the way she wants it and I think she's going to fail me for my final because she didn't even give me like, half the work until today and it's due today like.... next period and I'm just putting this here because I'm scared and I hate a lot of things and it kind of sucks really bad for me right now because if I fail this project I fail english and my entire family will hate me and my friends will be disappointed and oh god this sucks.

I hate when people get mad at me for not having money to do things.

it really sucks, and reminds me that I'm poor and living in a really shitty situation I can't escape.

like, gee, thanks, I forgot I'm seventeen, supporting myself and my mother and her bad habits on part-time minimum wage and going to school and barely passing 'cause I'm so busy doing other things to try to make my life a little better.

Skinny girls can be pretty too, even if we're white.

I am getting really tired of seeing things like "Skinny white girl does 'X'" or "Oh, sure, another skinny white girl, let's see some big black girls" from activists because, I mean, HELLOOO, that is devaluing girls just because they are white, and/or thin. You're so damn concerned about your bigger black girls and shit, I mean, sure, society don't paint a pretty picture, but public media promoting thinness and light skin as pretty =/= online community should debunk all confidence a "skinny white girl" can have in herself.

here's what I'm experiencing: 

Black girl of average weight: wow, I look great today!

Public response: Yeah! You do! Go confidence!

White girl who is somewhat thin/underweight: Hey, I think I look pretty good today too!

Public response: eeew why are you so overconfident, you're so full of yourself, You look just as good as everyone else get over yourself. stop promoting bad body image!!!!!!!!!1!!!!!

now, I know this happens with guys too, but I've been seeing it for girls a lot, which is why I focused on females. 

#soap box rant = over
