my fave greek history story to tell is that of agnodice. like she noticed that women were dying a lot during childbirth so she went to egypt to study medicine in alexandria and was really fucking good but b/c it was illegal for women to be doctors in athens she had to pretend to be a man. and then the other doctors noticed that she was 10x better than them and accused her of seducing and sleeping with the women patients. like they brought her to court for this. and she just looked at them and these charges and stripped in front of everyone like “yeah. im not fucking your wives” and then they got so mad that a woman was better at their jobs then them that they tried to execute her but all her patients came to court and were like “are you fucking serious? she is the reason you have living children and a wife.” so they were shamed into changing the law and that is how women were given the right to practice medicine in athens

Yeah, this isn’t some Greek myth story about a hero or demigod or something, Agnodice was a real person who actually did this.

girl has sooooooo many ambitions and ideas for projects but can only get 1.5 basic tasks done per day

artists/makers with adhd — how do you… do it. how do u get your shit done. bc some days i really cannot. like today

yourheartinyourmouth

-create an environment conducive to creation

-drink a LOT of caffeine (poor man’s adderall) + hydrate+ debuff brain by 20% w substances (basically just weed)

-earbuds

-podcast. podcast 5ever.

-lots and lots and LOTS of natural light and just light in general

-accept that many times the brain just Don’t Wanna and there is sadly nothing you când do to wanna, but remember you can always do something else for a while and try again later, or tomorrow

-don’t stress if you don’t make :) read a book or watch a show or do something else with your hands 🙌 and realize that your rest needs are not the same as those of NTs (or anyone else, for that matter)

-have a variety of hobbies, so that if one isn’t working out, another might! you might not be able to paint right now, but you can knit or dance or cook instead

-move your body around before you try to create. most of us have trouble sitting still, and getting some physical activity in before you try to say, sit down and draw, can be a giant help. i like to put on a high energy song or two and just dance my ass off for like 3-5 minutes. i also go to the gym regularly to help with this, but YMMV.

loathe as i am to say this, h*rry p*tter can be kind of useful. like, whenever i meet someone in their mid-thirties who thinks that snape was “very sexy” and “morally correct, actually,” i INSTANTLY know that i’m dealing with a total dumbass. it’s efficient

It is funny that Hitlers last moments of life were pure misery and terror before he blew his own brains out, it is funny that Luis Carrero Blanco was blown up by a bomb so powerful it sent his car flying over a 3 story building, it is funny that Ronald Reagan got shot and that his wound led to health complications that plagued him for the rest of his vile life, it is funny that Margaret Thatcher lived in constant fear of assassination by the IRA, it is funny that Mussolini ended life looking like a prized ham in the deli section, and it is funny that Trump might die from covid.

America is the least educated country in the world when it comes to American history

For any of my followers who may genuinely have this question:

Gay people know Reagan as the president who laughed at AIDS and did nothing because “all the right people” (aka us gay people) were dying from it.

Reagan is the president under whose auspices the incarceration rate of Black people on drug charges ballooned to caricaturishly high levels.

Reagan is the president that abolished the air traffic controllers’ union.

Reagan is the president who espoused the flawed “trickle down economics” theory, cut federal funding for state welfare programmes by 80%, froze the federal minimum wage while taxes and costs skyrocketed, and established the capital gains tax cuts that set our corporate feudal state into motion.

Reagan is the president who gutted federal assistance programmes, purging the Social Security disability rolls, and caused my own grandfather to die because he could no longer afford to buy both food and medicine.

Then of course, there’s the Iran-Contra Affair, Star Wars (not the film, but the space based missile platform), school prayer, blah blah blah

But American History textbooks only remember him for “Mr. Gorbachev, tear down this wall,” treating him like he alone was the force that united East and West Germany and brought the Soviet Union to its knees.

Oh y’all: and so many fucking war crimes/human rights violations across the world. We literally trained death squads in so many places, such as in Guatemala where the UN implicated those death squads in participating in genocide against the indigenous population.

So I’m just going to leave this picture of an old Pablo Picasso here for reference.

kingohats

#I recognized the reference but had assumed it was more of a general influence however they used the same molding and everything#I’m sure it’s supposed to be more of a general statement rather than being about any one artist and I’m sad there’s no caption on her site#but Picasso was certainly one of Those Artist Dudes#which is to say he was an abusive douchebag to most of the women in his life (x)

Not to be dramatic but this is absolutely the right way to deal with creepy old men whose “art” is just pictures of naked women

I hate it when folks try to make GIRLS seem older/more mature by calling them women, and therefor trying to make what men do to them seem okay, or at least “less bad”

She was a GIRL

In 2016, over 75,000 mail-in ballots were left uncounted and discarded because they were received after mail-in voting deadlines, which all vary by state, according to CBS news.

Some states like California allow you to check with the Registrar of Voters on-line to verify both if a ballot has issued and if it was received to help prevent voting errors.

Remember, the most common forms of voter fraud are 1) gerrymandering, 2) voter suppression and 3) foreign participation through both lobbying and online misinformation.

OCTOBER 13. IT’S BEING DELIBERATELY SLOWED. OCTOBER 13.

Also know that in most states you can also drop it off either at a polling place or the county elections office too

The postal service is being deliberately slowed.

please please please everyone who can vote make sure you’re registered and check when your ballot needs to be in. they are deliberately slowing things down so be careful and cautious about this, play it safe.
