life is throwing hurdles at me like it’s a fucking track meet
“please explain this gap on your resume” i was kidnapped and used as a sacrifice for a dark ritual :/
hello tumblr. would you like a strong and emotionally unavailable elf sword sapphic who is secretly a huge sweetheart
her name is Arkune she is my everything (created in roughly 2013-14 and has been redesigned numerous times over the years)
fatherful behavior. opposite of fatherless behavior. I am like this because my dad was so present in my life
two sentence horror story:
curated thrift store playing Spotify chappel roan mix. one tshirt is $20.
if you are having some/all of these experiences:
trouble finishing chores/housework that you can usually stay on top of
activities that are usually part of your daily routine (e.x. cooking yourself dinner) feel stressful and overwhelming
absolutely no desire to create or engage with your hobbies (except possibly one easy/“safe” one that takes little to no mental energy)
waking up tired even though you swear you got 7-8 hours of sleep
TAKE A DAY OFF OF WORK/SCHOOL because you very likely need a mental health/rest day!
lie and say you’re sick if you need to, and don’t feel guilty about it. taking one day off to recuperate is better than burning out
you deserve rest. take care of yourself.
saw something on Twitter the other day that really rubbed me the wrong way
I stumbled across an artist on Twitter and was scrolling through their page and noticed they post art memes of “tomboy phenotypes”
some of these “tomboy phenotypes” quite literally boiled down to “woman who plays video games” or “woman who wears hoodies and forgets to shower sometimes” and it struck me as so odd.
a woman can play video games and wear hoodies and forget to shower sometimes and still be super feminine? if she wants to be? those things don’t necessarily make someone a tomboy?
the line of logic that playing video games and sometimes faltering on your hygiene are “masculine” enough to classify someone as a tomboy is kind of stupid and also begs the question — if you consider a woman a tomboy if she does something so innocuous and common as playing video games, then what are feminine qualities? would you therefore only grant the title of “feminine woman” to like, I don’t know, a barefoot tradwife whose only hobbies are cooking and baking?
it just kind of seems like a slippery slope, and very similar semantically to how people try to rob trans woman and woman of color of their femininity for what are otherwise nothingburger traits like “was angry once” or “has a deep voice”
I guess the point of this post being that gendering traits/hobbies/clothing are stupid and we should stop doing that, and instead focus on the unique experience of each individual and how they feel that their gender presents itself (and yes this includes letting people trans their gender, TERFs don’t even touch this post)
Going to fuck around and write an article titled Men Are Disgusting and Women Don’t Exist: How Oppositional Sexism Creates Distinct Forms of Queerphobia and Encourages Infighting in the LGBTQ+ Community so that people can finally realize why we should be punching up and not fucking sideways
