"you don't owe anyone anything" You are a tar pit. Speak for yourself. I personally owe the cafe employees my dishes put away and my friends a listening ear and small scared insects a cup and a gentle trip outside. Hyperindividualism is a rancid infection borne of capitalism and willfully misinterpreted therapyspeak and I will defy it by continuing to be kind regardless of whether or not it benefits me personally

"For women, only one standard of female beauty is sanctioned: the girl. The great advantage men have is that our culture allows two standards of male beauty: the boy and the man. The beauty of a boy resembles the beauty of a girl. In both sexes it is a fragile kind of beauty and flourishes naturally only in the early part of the life-cycle. Happily, men are able to accept themselves under another standard of good looks — heavier, rougher, more thickly built. A man does not grieve when he loses the smooth, unlined, hairless skin of a boy. For he has only exchanged one form of attractiveness for another: the darker skin of a man’s face, roughened by daily shaving, showing the marks of emotion and the normal lines of age. There is no equivalent of this second standard for women. The single standard of beauty for women dictates that they must go on having clear skin. Every wrinkle, every line, every gray hair, is a defeat. No wonder that no boy minds becoming a man, while even the passage from girlhood to early womanhood is experienced by many women as their downfall, for all women are trained to want to continue looking like girls." — Excerpt from Susan Sontag's 1978 essay The Double Standard of Aging

gen z has to reckon with its radicalization problem. you are not a morally pure and superior generation of youth come to save the world, your men and boys are radicalized at an unprecedented level and you ignore it because it’s too hard to address but you have to. these boys are in your classes, they date your friends, you know them and you cannot continue to pretend this is an “old white guy” problem

girls are contributing, too. the coquette aesthetic, the “i don’t want to girlboss i want a man to pay my bills”, girlmath girljob girlmoney. it’s a joke, it’s clothes, it’s whatever, i get it but it is driving a mentality of traditional gender roles and you know you’re joking but your boyfriend doesn’t. your kid brother doesn’t. you have to stop this shit it is a contributing factor

Actually on the subject of "ironic" internet homophobia I also seriously need some of you to realize how fucking annoying it is when y'all see some random gay dude just living his life minding his own damn business and half the comments are just like "haha look at the fruity fairy limp wrist sissy twink fag (derogatory)" and see absolutely no problem with talking like that at all much less to some stranger online. It's condescending and tone-deaf at best and outright malicious at worst.

"Oh but sometimes gay friends talk like that to each other playfully" first of all a stranger on the internet isn't your friend, he's a stranger on the internet, and second of all considering y'all never stop bitching about how you think pride parades and gay bars are supposedly too horny and unsafe for minors or whatever, I know damn well none of you have ever actually gone out and met other gay people irl

Diet companies won’t tell you this but starving yourself is a lot worse for your health than overeating

It’s the strangest summer you can remember — the pool shed is haunted, the nights stretch forever.
