weary as the day is long

i cannot hate myself into a version of me i will love.

i cannot punish myself in any way that will unmake the past.

even if there is fearmongering and inacurrate studies about negative impacts of young children relying too much on ipads for stimulation you'd have to be insane to say it actually has no negative impact whatsoever. you do know a child's brain in early stages of development is not in fact the same as yours, right? help it's so dark in here...

me remembering i have a name and body and people know me:

thats the thing thats missing from america-centric discussion of fascism: this shit is global. every country in “the west” is seeing the same rise of fascism in real time, all of it focused on murdering migrants. like giorgia meloni is campaigning to deport people to “migrant camps” in albania. last year the greek coast guard outright drowned a boat of 500 asylum seekers. and as that last post said im not dismissing the suffering of people within the US, i’m just saying its so supremely frustrating that every conversation is about the minutiae of american domestic policy and not the horrifying ultranationalist global trend scapegoating arabs and africans.

my point is you need to be horrified that “border control” is an accepted talking point. you need to be aware of the fact that climate change is currently driving what will become the largest forced movement of people ever as the “third world” becomes uninhabitable. people—specifically people from africa and west asia—are dying in the name of white supremacist “borders” around the world. and whether your european or american when you see this rhetoric manifest in your country you need to push back.

its called peace and happiness and kindness and joy and simple fun. Its called a Good time

just saw a sign on the side of the road that said “you misunderstood: bring back my lawnmower” that six word story goes crazy

Monet was so right to be obsessed with flowers

the word 'swim' is doing a lot of heavy work here
