USAmericans: Assuming someone is generally on the same side of politics as you, do you respect their political opinions* more or less if you find out they didn't vote (by choice, not because they can't)? Did YOU vote in the 2024 election?
*This is not about if you agree with them, just if you're willing to hear them out more or less if you find out they didn't vote.
* I respect someone's political opinion the same regardless if they vote or not, I didn't vote
** I respect someone's political opinion the same regardless if they vote or not, I voted
This is not about if you agree with them, just if you're willing to hear them out more or less if you find out they didn't vote.
using tumblr as a journal as a substitute for in-person reflective conversation sorry
Cause honestly too much of my life is shame about not doing things. And that shame so rarely helps me do any of those things. And when it does serve as some sort of motivating force it’s not in a way that lets the accomplishment feel better than a slight relief, that must be given with a disclaimer that more or better could have been done.
I do wonder if I’ll ever fully break out of the nearly lifelong shame of feeling that I am never in difficult enough circumstances or dealing with enough tangible problems to justify how much I feel I struggle with things that others manage to do even when in far more difficult and less privileged circumstances.
Even being optimistic I feel like it’ll probably never fully go away, but I know its not really helpful for me or anyone to have that as a primary driving force to actually change and grow and do things. I’ve been trying to find deeper and more clear and compassionate driving forces to hold onto and use as guidance, which of course doesn’t erase the struggling or the shame felt about the seeming unreasonableness of it, but hopefully it helps me learn to do more.
A couple links for free ebooks shared by people I follow on insta in case that's of interest to anyone:
Haymarket Books (They have another free collection from May that is Palestine specific)
The Haymarket Books one is for the next two weeks btw

omg did not expect to see “we have mainstream research evidence for transmisogyny now” this morning but happy friday?? thanks dr. devon price for pre-digesting it
and of course there’s the angle of, well lmfao yes trans women have been saying this in mainstream print since at least 2007 and doubtlessly in other fora for much longer, but sometimes an argument from authority has more force and how do we emotionally reckon with ongoing lack of agency in conversations about us, but i digressss
Hey guys. Some of you guys would have heard by now that the philippines will face four storms consecutively. I'm currently in the middle of preparing, with the funds my partner gathered for me last month; only I've come across a couple of problems; firstly. That our fridge broke. We live in a wooden house, and when it rains, our walls are very humid. I suppose it caused some short circuiting in some of the wires. I've had the fridge repaired, but it also spoiled 2-4 days worth of food. Secondly. My mom's wallet got stolen. It had around 150 usd in it, that was supposed to go to our groceries for the last leg of November. I've been unable to find work on twitter, as a dying platform. And I am somewhat late in fulfilling my October commissions.. I have not been able to make art as a hobby.. in almost 2 months. None of my social media is growing because I work 10 hours every day, and I'm exhausted to work afterward. I have around 3 jobs, and with dollar dramatically falling, while food prices continue to skyrocket.. I am drowning. I am the only person in our house. I pay for my sisters tuition fees, I'm pretty much her parents in all respects. Elon Musk destroyed one of the platforms where most of my clients come from. And my other work will only pay me once I deliver 200 pages of work. Humbly, again, asking for help, prayers. Anything.
There's a 15% off sale on inrprnt, please come pick up any print at all if you'd like.
My patreon is only a dollar a month. Ever since Apple chose to bill iPhone users 30% more, I've devastatingly lost almost 60 patrons.
You can send me a direct tip on ko-fi if you like and have the means. Everything goes to repairing our house, and food, and insulin.
Also have a PayPal here..
Prayers and reblogs appreciated. Thank you so much for looking out for me for almost the whole year now. I'm sorry again. I'm desperately trying to repay the favor with new art and free stories. I will do my best.
I have evil furry convention plans.
seeing someone comment landfillcore under a holiday decor haul a few years back permanently changed my consumption habits. what an evocative word. I think about her all the time
Celebs leaving twitter and the guardian announced they were moving to bluesky yesterday too oh it's really a wrap for that site
There’s a bunch of right-wing people posting memes about “”DOGE”” making the government more efficient by removing funding from “”dumb bug researchers”” and I am now realizing how little the average person knows about entomology and its importance
Excuse me while I get sad .
There is a community note correcting this post about the importance of researching insects - including the reproductive habits of insects. But still the fact this was posted and 2k people liked it makes me sad 🥲🥲
"stupid researchers studying the mating habits of beetles" people when they can't afford groceries because an invasive beetle species is decimating crops
