I felt so vindicated when that study on period blood loss that used ACTUAL blood instead of water came out and confirmed that women bleed a lot more than we were previously told because I had BEEN saying that the amount that was showed in studies was absolutely incorrect for years. My old doctor was like "I'm sure it feels like it's a lot more than that, but it's only about two tablespoons a day!" As if I wasn't filling up three overnight pads a day and still bleeding through and somehow getting it all over my underwear. I lose like 8 ounces on day two alone, fuck all of these people who do jank ass studies you can't trust any of these men in the labs

A public health researcher I know had an informant who was recording the contents of her diva cup every cycle and when she brought the data to her doctor he was like "that's not true". 🙃

WHY IS THIS SO ACCURATE I AM DEEEADDD

[daysleftofsecondterm]

Beautiful, you don’t HAVE to forgive them. You just can’t ridicule them after leaving for being “tainted” or “evil” or whatever the acceptable word is now. Do not punish the behaviour you want to see.

“But they should’ve known sooner” and we should’ve known sooner that Destiel was never gonna meaningfully happen outside of queerbaiting, what’s your point?

“I never want them near me” that’s fine, but you do realize to insult them, YOU have to get near THEM, right? Wouldn’t it be more conducive to what you want to just leave each other alone?

“What if one of them tries to approach me?” Then you block them online, or you keep the conversation clinical and polite irl. You do NOT take time out of your day to berate them for their old views. Your mother raised you better than that.

As a matter of fact you can!

This is fundamentally how cults WORK, btw

Villainize outsiders, which can look different depending on the cult, make everything an us vs them situation. And then when those outsiders show themselves to be hostile (doesn't matter why) the cult is proven right all along on one of their foundational messages

The sign of high quality is the fact the book was banned by the government. Trash literature NEVER EVER had any troubles with the law.

[cuntybearjamboree]

FARENHEIT 451 IS ON THE BANNED BOOKS LIST??? IT’S LITERALLY ABOUT THE SOCIETAL DANGERS OF BANNING/OUTLAWING/BURNING BOOKS ARE YOU FUCKING KIDDING ME

[dancing-coyote]

That’s the reason it’s on the bloody list.

BECAUSE IT’S ABOUT HOW BANNING AND BURNING BOOKS IS WRONG.

Jesus Tapdancing Christ... THIS is a good welt pocket and the people who designed Simplicity 2895 ought to be blasted well ASHAMED of themselves for the crap way THEY wanted a welt pocket made. *SNARLS*

[makereadgrow]

This is how I learned to do it and a good example of what you want to see in a short form tutorial: pinning, pressing, seam finishing, good fabric handling.

I would mention that you can make the pocket facing with a small panel of your matching fabric that is visible and the rest in a lighter fabric to reduce bulk. That's a lot of denim layers for comfort.

“your rent should be a third of your income” well wouldn’t that be nice. wouldn’t it. lower the rent pussy

[moniquill]

Casual observation from someone old enough to remember: in the year 2000 financial advice was that rent should be no more than 1/4 of your income.

[vergess]

Until the mid 80s, the advice was that if you must rent instead of owning, then that 20% of your monthly income (oh yes, only 20%) should include all your utilities too.

After all, rent costs more than a mortgage, so it should offer more too.

The housing market is a fucking travesty.

I never thought I would be siding with the pope’s involvement in politics and cheering him on. I will say that.

[byjove]

[byjove]

“Well actually, the pope is bad-” yes. That is why I am saying I never thought I would agree with the pope meddling in political matters, I have picked up a history book. That is the entire point of this post. I hate the Catholic Church with a passion. I am shocked to agree with the pope on this one thing in this particular time and place.
