No offense to anyone in particular, but allo people will literally be like ‘romantic love is the most beautiful thing in the world!!!! It’s the peak of being human and the human experience!!! Aro people are a tragedy and should be pitied!!!’ and then will be thoroughly heartbroken and traumatized and have several issues from numerous unhealthy/toxic/uncommunicative relationships they got into because they believed romantic relationships will fix them and/or fill in the hole amatonormative media has left in their chest when it told them they’re not whole until they have ‘another half’, and will keep chasing the possibility of finding The One at the detriment of their mental wellbeing and possibility to discover who they are when they aren’t chasing that high. like… thanks, babe, but I don’t want that.

Capitalism can sometimes create two seemingly opposite problems. For example:

Medical systems where doctors have incentives to over-prescribe drugs because medical companies will profit more and medical systems where doctors have incentives to under-prescribe drugs because health insurance companies will profit more can both exist under capitalism. Sometimes in the same area. Sometimes the same doctor is subjected to both incentives depending on what drug we’re talking about.

Rather than debating about whether capitalism wants us all drugged into submission or capitalism wants us all deprived and in pain, we can simply conclude that the profit incentive combined with the authority of the doctor over the patient is always going to harm us in new ways. & that people who were over-prescribed medication and people who were under-prescribed medication both need autonomy over their body and a reliable medical system that isn’t profit driven.

[queeranarchism]

I want to add to this: systems of bigotry also regularly create two seemingly opposite systematic injustices, oppressive behaviors or prejudices. Like a minority population is seen as both ‘lazy and taking hand outs’ and ‘taking all our jobs’ at the same time.

Do not look for consistency in oppressive systems. It isn’t there. Oppressive systems are not created by an intelligent designer. They’re not based on a coherent theory. They grew from power in a ‘whatever works’ kind of way, exploiting every opportunity to be shitty to marginalized people.

Old people love to own two identical ugly as shit dogs

[kimreesesdaughter]

Please kick it with your little cousins, nieces/nephews and siblings on breaks when you come home. You have no idea how cool you might be to them. Ask them about school and their hobbies. Please let them know you care and love them. Don’t ignore the kids. Please.

[kimreesesdaughter]

Your little cousins and siblings don’t see your anxiety or depression. Your nephews don’t see your failing grades or that final you didn’t study for. They see the big kid with the cool shoes. Your Toyota Corolla is a spaceship to them. They’re fascinated you can drive. & while you think they need you, it might very well be that you need them.

Hello, pause for a sec.

Many places are removing masking requirements. And I’m here to ask, if you are young and able-bodied, please keep wearing a mask anyways. We’ve known for two years that masks protect others more than they protect yourself, and that masks work when most people are wearing them. If only at-risk individuals are masking, they’re more at risk.

Protect others. Help disabled people exist safely in public. Wear a mask.

Tell fat teenagers that being fat won't ruin their lives. That happiness and love are possible in a fat body. Support fat teens.

[mistermustachio]

Don’t just tell them that happiness and love are possible, tell them it’s normal.
