when you show up to the met gala you should immediately be faced with a panel of fashion experts and art historians before you even get to the red carpet and you have to explain your outfit choice and why it is on theme for that year’s event like you are defending a phd and if you can’t produce a coherent defence they turn you away at the door and the people of manhattan are allowed and encouraged to throw rotten produce at you as you get back into your car in shame

i wish there was a way to say "you're right, but this is really ineffective and even counterproductive messaging to anyone who doesn't already agree with you" without sounding like an asshole

I think one of the funniest abortion stances I've heard was from my parents neighbor. He's a like, hard-core libertarian viking larper guy who is very tall and very fat and very bald.

He believes a fetus is human with a soul, but also its "basically attacking the woman's body" so if she wants to get rid of it, that's "basically self-defense". He compared it to shooting a home invader. So he supports abortion not as healthcare, but as killing a baby in self-defense

i don’t want to be angry anymore i’m never going to hate again unless someone says something really stupid or if i see something i don’t like at all or maybe just whenever i feel like it

its probably a normal sign for the economy that all of my adulthood fantasies are like "imagine having your own kitchen living room and bathroom to decorate" "what if i could get on a train" "maybe one day i could purchase a sturdy pair of shoes" "i should save and invest in a single bicycle"

btw it's so fucking stupid you can be anxious physically in your body even after you've decided mentally you don't care. I'm supposed to be in charge here

I know we make fun of Victor Frankenstein for not actually being a doctor, but I genuinely feel like that makes him 100% more relatable

That is not a grown man who knows what he's doing. He's not a doctor. He's not a scientist. Yes, he's a genius, but he's a genius teenager. A college student. He rocked up to the college and went "I'd like to study alchemy please" and they were like "?? What the fuck are you talking about? Alchemy doesn't exist??"

He doesn't have a lab. All his books are outdated by 600 years. He's only ever had two (2) friends in his entire life and one if them is his adoptive sister. One of his professors hates him. He's got three presentations and two essays due tomorrow and he hasn't started any of them.

The creature is a three months long allnighter made in an unholy mix of hubris, sleep deprivation and spite. It's an essay finished at 3:40 in the morning after you consumed nothing but energy drinks for 24 hours straight. While writing it you felt like you were god himself creating the most perfect thing to ever exist. And then you proofread it and it's so horrible that you just straight up pass out because you can't deal with this right now. Or maybe that's just because you haven't eaten in the last four days. You wake up. The essay has stolen your clothes, escaped your dorm and is going to kill your family

actually fucking disgusting that glasses cost any money like if you actually think about it for more than a few seconds it is so unconscionably inhumane. this goes for things like insulin and mobility aids and hearing aids too ofc but fuck man, fucking glasses? the thing you need to fucking see? its genuinely sickening and inhumanly evil that those cost ANYTHING.
