(i didnt write it out so that blacklists wouldnt catch it and keep it from people who need to see this post)

there are really intense flashing white lights starting from when the couple says “its the witch from next door,” and gets worse when she is describing what happened in her garden. 

be safe everybody, and SIGNAL BOOST!

Signal boost bc I’m epileptic and I wouldn’t want anyone to go into the movie not knowing

Things that are so great to remember when trying to go to sleep: that you haven’t heard back about your application for unconditional admission in your grad program and it’s nearing two months since they were supposed to have processed said applications. And you are also close to needing to apply for candidacy and graduation…but you can’t do that until unconditionally admitted…and you wonder if they lost your form or typoed your email address…and just generally get anxious over it and email your advisor because you need to fix this and you want to not be the only one anxious about this.

Merry Christmas to me, indeed @_@

it’s been reported by multiple folks on the scene of Antonio Martin’s shooting that police left him to die without getting medical assistance, he could have survived had they made the effort. so not only was he 18 and unarmed, even when they made the exaggerated move of taking him down for whatever reason and he was helpless on the ground no longer posing a threat to em (if there even was a threat) they left him to die.

update: from local to big name media, the wrong story is now being spread like wildfire throughout national news stations and websites claiming Antonio had a gun but witnesses have images showing this is a complete lie and the gun was planted there after the cops were able to lock down the crime scene and tamper with the evidence. do not let them change the story.

when asami’s father dies and she becomes an orphan but she’s sad for 0.00000000001 seconds and then goes on a vacation

No, bullshit. Shut up right now. I haven’t really been involved with controversy over the finale because I just want to enjoy it, but not this one. You guys don’t know what its fucking like to have parents like that. Thats one of reasons I love Asami so much, she went through something really similar to me, and I’m gonna defend her. I usually don’t talk about this on my blog because I don’t like to, but guess what? I testified against one of my parents in court for child abuse and assault of a minor with a deadly weapon. And they got punished for it, and I haven’t seen them in a long time. But I did talk to them once and went through the whole talk about our feelings thing. Sound familiar? Hiroshi tried to kill Asami, then they didn’t see each other for over 3 years. Do you even realise how that feels, to have your parent, the person who is supposed to love you unconditionally and care for you, literally try to kill you, try to end your life? Because I do. Asami does. Do you know how it feels to have a parent who is alive but you don’t talk to for years of your life because of how they hurt you? Because I do. Asami does. Do you realise how hard it is to have even a remotely normal conversation with your parent after what they did to you and after so many years apart? Because I do. Asami does. Do you have any idea how much a parent trying to kill you can fuck up that relationship for life? Because I do. Asami does. Asami is under no obligation to heavily mourn the man who tried to kill her. Being an orphan probably isn’t even that new to her, considering she’s seen her dad like twice in 3 years, its not like he’s been a significant part of her life. What do you even want her to do? Wear all black and stare at his photo and cry, why isn’t a vacation what she needs? To get away from the city where her dad tried to kill her, the same city where she watched him die. Why isn’t getting away a good thing for her? 

TLDR: Asami’s dad literally tried to fucking kill her, and she’s seen him like twice in the last few years, she is under no obligation to heavily mourn his death, and a vacation, getting away from the city where all that happened, is a valid way to grieve. 

Everyone, please reblog this, I don’t care if it means more people know about my story, I want everyone to know that it’s never okay how to tell a person how to grieve the loss of parent that tried to kill you. If the parent that did this to me died tomorrow, I can honestly say I would barely care, and if one of you told me I wasn’t grieving enough, I would punch you in the face.

there really needs to be a much more expanded idea of the “not like other girls” thing

yeah sure sometimes it’s from internalized misogyny and an attempt in trying to separate yourself as superior to the rest

but sometimes it’s a lifetime of “I know what girls are supposed to be and I keep falling short and am worth nothing because of it” that you can’t shake even after trying to shed the marks gender essentialism have left on you

sometimes it’s gender dysphoria where you feel like a liar and imposter every time you group yourself in with “girls” or “women” to the point where you start feeling like an imposter grouping yourself in with “people” or “human”

there’s so much talk about the first, so much insisting that it’s the only reason for that feeling of separation, that those of us struggling with the rest can never talk about them and never trying to heal from them without being branded as perpetrators of internalized misogyny and it’s just???  I’m so tired of it and so tired of this feeling and so tired of keeping it all bottled up just to avoid being branded as some sort of Enemy of Womanhood and I know I’m not the only one

Tis the season

Helping someone in need.

I’m posting this on behalf of a friend. We’re all stretched thin, but if anyone can spare even a dollar please do so. There is so much bad in the world right now wouldn’t it be nice to spread a little good?

Hello. My name is Nick. I am a 35 year old student living in…

Signal boosting this for my friend Nick.

Nick is one of the bravest souls I’ve ever known. Nothing about the past few years of his life has been easy, and yet he continues to march forward. Going back to school so that he can build a future for himself is a goal that I feel is incredibly important to him. Even if you give him 5 bucks I know it would help, and he’d be grateful for anything at all. It took a lot for him to even ask for help, he isn’t going to turn even a dollar away.

Please help him. If you can’t – I know we’ve all got our own cares and struggles and financial issues – then please reblog this to get the word out.

Thanks!

Tis the season
