I didn't get to write or draw anything cute for valentines day, but that's okay. Jer and Adri weren't planning anything too fancy anyway, since their second anniversary is two weeks away.

also, i want to apologize to people whose messages were ever ignored by me or took me ages to reply to. i have no excuses, i’m just shit at communicating and a lot of time get stuck in my own head, postpone replying and then either forget about it or think that it is too late to reply. i’m sorry if i’ve ever made someone feel bad bc of this - honestly, it’s never personal, it’s just me and my inner problems. i will try harder to work on it. thank you for ever initiating conversations with me ♥

kids have no concept of anything. i walked into my kindergarten class and one kid asked me what my name was. when i said miss jones, he said “i like that name. did you know i’m in love with you”

[letthemountainsmoveyou-deactiva]

i asked my four year old cousin how old he thought i was going to be at my next birthday and he said 8. im 23

[roonilwazlip-deactivated2022021]

once i told a 6 year old that i had finished school and was doing “more school” [university] and she asked “why haven’t you found anyone to marry then”

[byeeyeslikeacat-deactivated2019]

We were at a museum and I was asking for the student discount and my nine year old cousin looks up at me with his eyes wide and says “wait you’re a STUDENT??”

[meelothemanly]

I used to babysit these three kids and the eldest who was around 11 at the time was talking about how adults are boring and when I told him I was an adult he said, “That’s not true, you’re my age”

[cractasticdispatches]

our aunt teaches and she has this story about a little girl who really was always pretty quiet in class and then on the final day of kindergarten she just up and stated ‘i’m all teached now. i don’t need to be teached anymore. i’m done of being teached.’

[diamondelight92]

once when i was 19, I told my little cousin that i was 19 and she looked up at me with huge eyes and went, “Does that mean you don’t have to bring an adult with you to the pool?”

[maraudersvibes]

My 6 year old cousin saw me driving for the first time, looked up at him mom and said “does that mean she is married now?”

[standard-fiend]

I watched my dad and my niece (3 at the time) arguing over a pair of pants and whether or not they were also a dress. My neice’s argument was that they were, in fact, also a dress because they were blue.

I asked the kids in my daycare class what they thought I should be for Halloween and this little boy goes, “ooh I know! A pickle! You’d be such a good pickle”

[aimmyarrowshigh]

On the first day of class with my favorite student of all time, I said, “Are you okay? You look like you have a question.” And she looked me right in the eyes and said, tremulously,

“Can a piranha eat a stapler?”

[manic-kin]

One time I was working with a kid and he looked up at me and asked “Do you have a boy?” I had no idea what he was talking about, but I told him that I did not have any boys. He looked shocked and then deeply concerned and said “Well, you better hurry up and shave your arms so you can get married; August is next month!”

[dinovia-grant]

I was sitting on the floor with my 3yo niece and we were playing with her younger brother’s alphabet blocks and the O had an octopus on it.  So I picked it up and asked her what it was.

“Octopus,” she said, all curls and smiles.

“And what kind of animal is an octopus?” I asked.  I was looking for “fish” or “sea creature” but I would have accepted almost anything–”weird,” “gross,” even “slimy.”  “Underwater” or “it lives in the ocean” would have also been acceptable. 

She looks me right in the eye and says, happy as a clam, “It’s a cephalopod.”

I haven’t been the same since.

A kid I work with asked me if my boyfriend was my dad because he has a beard

[tpkatastrophy]

Well I'm going to be late today.

[tpkatastrophy]

I finally copied some of the rigs over to the Omen, so now I have icon access while over here :D

[tpkatastrophy]

Guess who snagged a spot for pre-shift voluntary time off?  

Meeee ~ My new system is great, I set work texts as a very, very special ringtone so they can’t sneak by me anymore.  It works wonders and makes me laugh, too.  :P

Gonna go nap even though I had had literally 20oz of triple concentrated deathwish coffee.  I am that exhausted.

[justsomeantifas]

walmart like actively demonizes unions and encourages their employees to be fearful of them by spreading lies and propaganda about them lmao. like it would be really difficult to unionize walmart workers because as soon as youre hired they start making you learn anti-union propaganda and quiz you on it to make sure you’re adequately fearful of them and they do this multiple times. lmao they literally try to brainwash their employees into hating unions.

[justsomeantifas]

they even have like phrases they repeat over and over again “protect your signature from unions” “walmart just wants to protect you from being exploited by unions so keep your signature safe!”

[mockiato-deactivated20200315]

My wife was told that anyone talking about unionizing would be fired and blacklisted… and that anyone who associated with union workers will be fired

[justsomeantifas]

yup! and again the one walmart that did unionize was shut down.

[loptrcoptr]

I worked at Macy’s and let me tell you, they had all new employees, as part of their training, watch a special anti union video for an hour, alone. It was cleverly disguised with bizarre rhetoric, and actors in overalls pretending to be union reps, waiting to ambush you at your car in the parking lot and give you a dreaded UNION CARD. The horror!! It was a “just say no” video, but for civil liberties instead of drugs.

Remember: big corporations are not your friend. Union’s are s threat to their ability to manipulate and overwork you. DO NOT under any circumstances trust any anti-union rhetoric that comes out or your company— if they’re anti-union, they don’t have your well-being at heart, they want your obedience.

[trans-phantasm]

I hated Unions long before working at Walmart so…..

Doctors Are Now Saying That Menstrual Cramps Can Be as Painful as Having a Heart Attack

Finally people are starting to listen to what women have been saying all along.

And in other news, water is wet

[onlyblackgirl]

Not like women have been telling y'all this since the beginning of time or anything.

[frenchswissborder]

I mean, yeah, at one point three years ago I was curled up in a fetal position literally screaming/crying/gasping for breath on my bed in my dorm room, so my response to this headline is basically, “No shit.”

[phiralovesloki]

No wonder women are so likely to ignore heart disease/attack symptoms. If something isn’t as bad as my cramps, I figure it can’t be that bad.
