Goth music obvs has a reputation for being macabre but that glosses over the sheer number of gothic rock songs that are some guy being so desperately horny it sounds like it's causing him physical anguish. So not that different from other genres really

"Soul mate" story where the first thing your soul mate says to you is tattooed on your hand (or their name, or whatever indicator you want, it doesn't matter) except the pairings don't indicate compatibility at all. People seem to just be like. Randomly paired up. Traditionalists insist that marriage is for tattoo-defined soul mates but for most people in the modern world meeting your tattoo buddy is like "oh hey, it's you! That's neat!"

The careers of multiple scientists are fuelled entirely by trying to figure out what the tattoos actually indicate.

I consider increased interaction between American and Chinese people to be extremely valuable for two reasons: 1) it helps to indirectly reduce tensions between the US and Chinese governments, and 2) it threatens the nationalist agendas of both the US and Chinese governments by giving each of their populations a window into the other side of the world, which allows them to note their similarities with people in other nations and also to observe some of the various ways in which the other population has it better than theirs does. Nothing diminishes nationalism like a little bit of mutual "the grass is greener on the other side"

i think monster high would pass a reverse bechdel test (shout out to when clawd heath and manny joined the jackass show during the 13 wishes movie) but at least it would still fail the hayes code (doesn't punish their gays for being gays, they instead punish them for being teenagers and losers instead-)

I’m a strong proponent of lying to get the help you need. I always try the truthful route first but if that gets me nowhere? Lying it is.

I think it’s important to respect other people’s time, wellbeing and money so I don’t do it in situations where I know I’m in the wrong, like if I want to get into a place just for fun and someone could get in trouble for letting me in wrongfully I’d rather not.

But sometimes people just don’t understand why something is important in your situation so you have to turn it into something they understand. When I lived in England I constantly lied about being pregnant so gas station employees would let me use their bathroom because for some reason they didn’t have public bathrooms.

Or when my doctor’s secretary couldn’t get it into her head that my stomach pains were very serious and concerning and insisted I couldn’t get an appointment this month so that evening I “found” a lump that I was pretty sure was nothing but it meant I had a reason to call her the next day and get a new appointment immediately and when the doctor told me the lump was harmless I could tell her what my real problem was and she immediately scheduled ALL the tests and examinations because she understood how concerning it was. I just had to get past the fucking secretary with a lie.

Fuck I even support that elderly man who lied about having four children who were stuck in a house during a flood but when the rescue team got there in a dinghy they realized it was four dogs. The guy knew he had to lie because he was too sick to help them himself (able bodied people in the area were able to save their own pets) and they wouldn’t have helped him if they knew it was “just dogs”. In the video the rescue team can be seen choking up and padding him on the back while he cries with his scared dogs in his arms. The team is clearly not mad because they can see how important the dogs are to him but I have no doubt he was right in thinking they wouldn’t have helped if he had told them the truth.

So do what ya gotta do and lie lie lie.

the DSM-5 is not an arbiter of truth. it is a manual for insurance policies. that's it. that's all it's for that's why it exists. you must understand this if you are going to have a correct understanding of the ways psychiatry and psychopathology are primarily used as ideological tools of capital to maintain the integrity of the workforce.

The term 'ship' is too vague. I don't think they should date i think they should be fucking regularly. I don't think they should date i think they should yearn for eachother endlessly but never have it be requited. I don't think they should date i think they should kiss one night and never talk about it again. I don't think they should date i think they should hate eachother so much that it turns into bottled up lust. I don't think they should date i think one of them should have a one-sided crush on the other. I don't think they should date i think they should have a situationship that ruins their lives. I don't think they should date i think they should stab eachother

Hey so apparently the Trump administration is trying to include Natives in his unconstitutional birthright citizenship end order. They haven't been non citizens since 1924. He trying to fucking reverse the Snyder Act.

A lot, if not all, of his plans impact natives in some way. Remember to keep advocating for native rights.
