[marxism-transgenderism]

Lord in heaven,

who brought forth wonders

by fire and water for our Fathers,

cooling Abraham’s Chaldean kiln,

so in its flames he’d not be burned;

who altered Dina’s fate in the womb,

and made a serpent of Moses’ wand;

who whited with illness Miriam’s hands

and turned the Sea of Reeds into land—

transforming the muddy bed of the Jordan

into passable sand,

and making from stone and shale

a pool whose springs would not fail

if only you would make me female!

If that alone might be done,

how wondrous then would be my fortune!

Spared the arduous labor of men,

I’d settle down and raise my children.

But why complain and bitterly whine?

If my Father in heaven is so inclined

as to fashion me with a lasting deformity,

how could I ask that He take it from me?

Worry about what just can’t be

is incurable pain and endless misery;

empty condolence is hardly an answer.

“I’ll just have to bear it, “ I said, “though I’ll suffer

until I wither away and die.”

And since long ago I learned from tradition

that both good and bad deserve benediction,

in the faintest of whispers I’ll mutter each morning;

Blessed art Thou, O Lord—who has not made me a woman.

— Qalonymos ben Qalonymos, "On Becoming a Woman" (1322). Qalonymos was a Jewish philosopher and translator born in 1286 in what is now southern France (link).

not caring too much about a fandom’s favourite guy is the worst. you’ll think “oh i’ll look into the tag see if anything new and cool’s there” and it’s just that fucking guy again

the curse of adhd:

i will remember with absolute clarity, when the thought strikes me that i have a text to send someone, that this is the fourth time in three days i've attempted to send this specific text

i will forget, in the time it takes me to pick up my phone, that i picked it up intending to send a text

dipper is a weirdly special kind of character to me because I was that type of kid, the one who wanted to grow up too fast and got irritated at their sibling not taking things too seriously and never wanting to seem childlike. i connected heavily with him, and honestly the entire arc of Gravity Falls being in part about him learning to just be a kid really helped me in the long run. it was a great wake up call seeing a character so similar to me at that age learn to finally stop trying to be an adult before i was ready.

If you saw me agreeing with being annoyed about wasted helium in a fictional context and were like "I bet she has some more helium based anger in her life" good news LAPD fucked up a raid on a medical facility they thought was a pot farm and flat out ruined thousands of gallons of the stuff.

Crocodile finds a strange stray cat an 11-year old Nico Robin (AU where they met 13 years earlier. Robin's been on the run from the World Government for 3 years. Crocodile's 27 and has not set up base in Alabasta yet)

It seems like I have become possessed. By some sort of demon.

ID in alt and under cut

ID: digital painting of Cinderpelt and Brightpaw from Warriors. They are two cats curled around each other. Brightpaw, a ginger-and-white cat, is badly injured with cobwebs as bandages around her face and other injuries. She is unconscious and lying on her side in a moss nest. Cinderpelt, a gray cat, is curled around her with her tail over Brightpaw's back, looking at her with concern. They are in a shaded den surrounded by autumnal ferns, with a pool of water in the corner, and a strip of bright sunlight illuminating their faces. end ID.
