man with excellent self restraint dismayed to realize that not wanting anything is more likely a depression symptom than a carefully honed skill that atones for other aspects of his character
Hope she figures out a better way soon
already transitioned whats my next move
Hi. Things are bleak, I know that. I know that we paid for Trump's last term with blood and it is likely the price will be blood again.
But listen to me. LISTEN.
You do not have to force yourself to witness horrors as an act of activism. It is not a form of activism. You can put your phone down, you can block that horrific video. We cannot win if you cannot fight and you will not be able to fight if you are hopeless.
Do not let them guilt you into this. People who are exhausted are easier to walk over. Take care of yourself, find community where you find joy.
^^^ remember this. do not exhaust yourself into hopelessness. take care of yourself and stay strong.
At first I was like, well I guess a severed hawk head can be considered art if it's meant to portray such and such. And then big reveal.

It sucks that there's only 20 minutes in each day. If there was more than that I would get more stuff done I'm sure
He said in an interview that he shouldn’t have been surprised that they would have no respect for vets when they are gassing moms

In case you, a U.S. voter, were feeling iffy about voting for Kamala Harris, here’s a reminder of the shit that went down under Trump…
Yeah, remember when his administration SENT UNMARKED PARAMILITARY FORCES into cities to quell BLM protests? Not “riot police” - tactical, militarized units with identifying tags and numbers deliberately removed or obscured.
Oh shit…. you probably forgot about that, didn’t you? There was so much going on in 2020, it’s natural to block out stuff, but if you have the power and the privilege of voting in this year’s elections don’t you DARE allow this man back in office, especially when he is CURRENTLY saying stuff like this:
[x]
[x]
[x]
[x]
[x]
[x]
In case you were a kid in 2020 and protected from seeing what happened
You need to know what’s at stake here. This stuff? was a TEST RUN. Look up everything that happened those years. Everything you can find from 2016 and Standing Rock to 2020 and Black Lives Matter and the Riots and then look up Jan 6 and the attempted coup on our government.
THEN VOTE
just saw someone say they were "hyperfixated" on cooking with seasonal squash i love that nothing means anything
i’m seriously traumadumping pepper all over these boiled eggs

I WISH THINGS HAD TURNED OUT DIFFERENTLY!!!!!!!!! goes to the supermarket
nothing has made me feel like an ancient grumpy crone more than the “using chatgpt for school is fine actually” sentiment among youths
if you use chatgpt to write your english assignments that is bad. you should not do that
this has been accelerated by watching my roommate who teaches freshmen composition slowly become ben_affleck_smoking.jpg as he has to fail multiple students every semester for using chatgpt
like. this is bad and this person should feel bad lol this completely misses the point of writing assignments. the point is the production, not the end product
critical thinking is a genuinely important life skill, whether or not you pursue higher education. fascism relies on anti-intellectualism!
AND IT’S TERRIBLE FOR THE ENVIRONMENT. what are we doing here
Your ability to think for yourself is one of the most valuable powers you have, and one of the only things no one can take away from you.
Do not give it away willingly.
I hope everyone grows tired of being cruel to each other soon
Sorry, I tried to trim it but it declined. Also I might have told it you were the one that wanted it trimmed, sorry. Anyway, best of luck

just learned that magnolias are so old that they’re pollinated by beetles because they existed before bees
They existed *before beetles*
Why is this sad? Why am I sad?
This is how I feel about Joshua Trees. They and avocado trees produce fruit meant to be eaten and dispersed by giant ground sloths. Without them, the Joshua Trees' range has shrunk by 90%.
(my own photos)
Not only they, but the entire Mojave ecosystem is still struggling to adapt since the loss of ground sloth dung. their chief fertilizer.
Many, many trees and plants in the Americas have widely-spaced, extremely long thorns that do nothing to discourage deer eating their leaves, but would've penetrated the fur of ground sloths and mammoths. Likewise, if you've observed a tree that drops baseball or softball-sized fruit which lies on the ground and rots, like Osage Oranges, which were great for playing catch at my school, chances are they were ground sloth or mammoth chow.
You can read about various orphaned plants and trees missing their megafauna in this poignant post:
