Depression does not always mean
Beautiful girls shattering at the wrists
A glorified, heroic battle for your sanity
Or mothers that never got the chance to say good-bye
Sometimes depression means
Not getting out of bed for three days
Because your feet refuse to believe
That they will not shatter upon impact with the floor
Sometimes depression means
That summoning the willpower
To go downstairs and do the laundry
Is the most impressive thing you accomplish that week
Sometimes depression means
Lying on the floor staring at the ceiling for hours
Because you cannot convince your body
That it is capable of movement
Sometimes depression means
Not being able to write for weeks
Because the only words you have to offer the world
Are trapped and drowning and I swear to God I’m trying
Sometimes depression means
That every single bone in your body aches
But you have to keep going through the motions
Because you are not allowed to call in to work depressed
Sometimes depression means
Ignoring every phone call for an entire month
Because yes, they have the right number
But you’re not the person they’re looking for, not anymore

A long time ago, before I even met you,
someone replaced my chest with a broken record.
For years, it’s been stammering through
the same old tune.
I want you to know I’m trying.
I quit smoking. I’m doing yoga. And those days
I wake up wishing for death are getting fewer
and farther apart.
No, I’m not ok. But I haven’t been ok
since I was 11, maybe 12. I am still here though.
I’m still breathing. For me, sometimes, that
will have to be enough

As women, we are taught to be tiny. To have small bodies, to never be imposing. The ideal of our gender are thin and childlike, hairless and dainty. We are defined by our bodies; defined by our control over them. We are taught to obsess over our physicality and to be repulsed by our desires and intelligences.
We are taught to walk scared late at night. We cradle our keys between our perfectly manicured fingers, walking gracefully like a baby antelope in a herd of lions. That our virginity defines our character. That I am a frigid bitch if I do not fuck him, and a dirty slut if I do.
Michelle K., The Truth About Growing Up A Woman. (via fawun)

I had this dream where everyone knew who they were in their past lives and it caused so much drama and uproar. You had to list your notable past lives on your job and school applications. There was tumblr discourse like “is it morally acceptable to kin someone else’s past life?” There were articles with headlines such as “how to cope if you find out you were a nazi in a past life.” Celebrities were getting callout posts based on their past lives. People would dox your lives. Ariana Grande was a founding father.

I love my dog and I love having a dog and I’m never loving dog-free again. HOWEVER, only cat owners experience the pure, altruistic love for a total asshole. The radiant joy of a cat person telling you about the disgusting demon cat that they clearly love is how God feels about us.

After undergoing years of counselling, he says he has finally discovered he wasn't transgender. Instead, he says, he was a woman suffering with horrific complex PTSD after years of sexual abuse.
"Looking back now I realise that it was simply a feeling that if I didn't have a vagina, I couldn't be raped," he revealed.

Well, I’m sure this is just one isolated incident of the cops secretly collaborating & conspiring with neo-nazis, right? I mean, aside from the other three times mentioned in the article.
And also aside from that cop that ran a white supremacist website.
And also aside from that Florida police department riddled with KKK members.
And also aside from that nazi cop in Philly that got outed.
And also aside that Mpls. cop that runs a racist MC in his free time.
And especially also aside from that time the Greensboro police department colluded with the KKK to help them murder five anti-racists in a shooting rampage in broad daylight.

third wave feminism is so watered down that someone can send rape and sexual assault threats to women and still genuinely believe they are a feminists because they believe in “equal rights”
