Least fun parts of thrift shopping:

This thrift shop used to have jeans for like $3 and now everything is priced like it's new

Hear about a cool new thrift shop in town and you check it out and it's actually "vintage upcycling and consignment" so the shredded jorts are $250 on sale

This place used to get cool stuff but the tiktok haul resale people found it and now anything decent is snapped up and immediately resold for like $500 online

"Ooh this is cute" and then you check and it's shein

"Ooh this is cute" and then you check and it's Harry P*tter

The jacket of your dreams is in your price range but it's 3 sizes too small

Your absolute FAVOURITE thrifted item finally wears out beyond salvation and when you do research to maybe find a replacement it's been discontinued since 1983

Check the pockets and find used kleenex

STICKY THING

This was exactly what I was looking for but I can't get the weed remnants out

Planning for a flight now consists of planning out how to document the legal violations the airline is inevitably going to commit.

when you download a pdf and it's called like 1328723486basdf12.pdf but then you gently rename it to what it's supposed to be. that's forming a bond with a hurt and wild mythological creature and reminding it who it is.

it disturbs me that a significant number of people think that the issue with sexual violence, gendered violence, and misogyny is sexual desire rather than dehumanization, so they are relentlessly suspicious of others' (and their own) desires while simultaneously never at all interrogating others' (and their own) dehumanizing beliefs about other people, both within and outside of sexual contexts

Most people who voted Republican in the 2024 election simply hated minorities so much they’d rather vote against their self-interests than allow any policy to stand that benefits them in anyway. That is why the right tried so hard to stoke up anti-immigrant and anti-trans hysteria while being real quiet about what their policies would do for the average American. It’s why you are seeing so many people now saying “man I wish I understood what Trump’s tariff plan was going to do, I wouldn’t have voted for him” or “I didn’t realize the Affordable Care Act and Obamacare are the same thing and now Trump is going to cut my medical coverage, I wouldn’t have voted for this if I’d known!” they banked on their voter base being so full of hate that they’d cease all ability to critically think. And it worked.

Reminder that the response to “you’ll never be a man/woman” is not to list off all the ways that hrt has profound changes on the human body but to reject completely any sex-based or hormone-based definition of gender.

I get the impulse to justify yourself, I really do, but it is impossible to justify yourself to bigots, and trying to do so leaves behind so many trans and intersex people who don’t fit the acceptable narrative you’re trying to create.
