This would have had me crucified on tumblr 10 years ago but maybe we are ready for this conversation now:

If you are a socially anxious person, you have to socialize. Your panic/anxiety attacks will only get worse and trigger more frequently if you constantly avoid contact with The Public. Not saying that you need to be a social butterfly- but there is a genuine problem with not being able to order your own meal at a restaurant. And it cannot be solved by always having someone else do it for you.

This is a PSA to about 3/4s of the Portland Youth populace

everyone who reblogs this and is like "I ordered my own tea this week" or "I only barfed once when I had to give a presentation'- you are doing amazing sweetie. Have patience with yourself, you are relearning a skill so difficult that people get 4 year degrees to do it professionally.

he’s made more than one of these and they’re making me insane because for two days i haven’t been able to stop saying ‘i knew it! he’s a vampire! i knew it! i knew it! he’s a vampire! i knew it! he’s’ (x)

[wizardarchetypes]

i knew it! he's a vampire! i knew it! i knew it! i knew it, he's a vampire! he's a vampire, i knew it! i knew it! he's a vampire! i knew it!

I mean shit, we already playin' the antiblack olympics world wide. I want to know what all the hype around the croissant is. Since allegedly America sucks at making 'em.

[tartrazeen]

There are excellent points on both sides

1. Rob the Louvre

2. Get her a croissant

3. America doesn't suck at making them. It sucks at packaging them, because they're always a little too stale and somehow wet on the outside...?

[idiot-haul]

Why is it referred to as coming out of the closet? 

[idiot-haul]

It could be coming out of anything. What wasted potential.

#if you want the pedantic answer bc I’ve actually researched this for my thesis#there doesn’t seem to be a for sure agreed upon origin of the phrase BUUUUUT#it seems to be a combo of two earlier phrases ‘coming out’ and ‘skeletons in the closet’#coming out started to be used by gay men in 1920s new york bc a “coming out” was the 1st time a debutante would debut into the dating scene#so gay men would have their “coming out” when they first went onto the gay dating scene#a skeleton in your closet is a shameful/dirty secret that would often only be revealed once a person died#for a lot of queer people their queerness was something they literally took to the grave#so being 'in the closet’ meant you were the skeleton in your closet#I couldn’t find an exact confirmation of when the phrases began to be combined but it seems to be around early 1970s gay liberation movemen#at the time a popular protest chant was 'out of the closet and into the streets’#which I think also helped to popularize the term#I’m putting all this in the tags bc I realize this is a silly post that is meant as a joke and I didn’t wanna ruin the punchline#but I also wanted to provide an answer for those who were curious

ive been thinking about how some trans spaces and media lack representation of bottom surgery and itd be nice if we could talk about and depict it more. but my attempts to formulate this into a coherent thought lead me to standing in front of the microwave idly thinking "we should normalize men with penises" as if thats a brave new frontier nobody has ever considered.

[sodomit]

I like this post. Because it shows that sometimes, what at the surface sounds like reinforcement of the norm, is actually necessary for a minority that's not included in the norm.

Y'all have seen this post, right?

It was a vaguepost of a trans man who complained about feeling pressure to be feminine. Yet people refer to it completely outside of queer context.

[its-time-to-be-silly]

The five stages of media depiction of minorities:

1) No positive representation. The minority is barely mentioned, or only as an offensive caricature

2) Approved Positive Stereotype. Generally modelled around the version of the minority most palatable to the majority

3) Inverse of Approved Positive Stereotype. Messier, more diverse representation that wasn't previously allowed. Artists shy away from 2) <- we are here

4) Careful balance of 2) and 3) (to show that the artist is aware of the diversity of experiences)

5) Depiction of the minority without careful scrutiny about which story is being told. Artists no longer feel a heavy burden to give 'correct' representation, due to presumed audience familiarity

Holy crap. Is this real? It looks real - and SUPER expensive!

No wonder AI dresses are all over the place. If this is what they're based on, I absolutely understand why they're so elaborate.

This is gorgeous 😍

What this is telling me is that I have two hang-ups to get over: how much oil I use at a time, and how much butter I use. In both cases, it's never enough.
