okay i looked on the wiki and stuff and i genuinely cannot figure it out, what is diary of a tourney kid???
a totally normal soundcloud account themed around the hit jeff kinney book series diary of a wimpy kid that will totally not rewire your neurons completely
#i know this is likely a genuine question but like.#im kinda exhausted today so you get the funny answer#if you want smth juuuust slightly more serious: deranged soundcloud-hosted fanfiction with audience participation via voting#the wikis kind of outdated so id recommend just hopping into the discord server linked on said sc#and asking questions#be prepared to possibly be overwhelmed with people stumbling over eachother to answer you though.#we dont get fresh faces very often so it can be hectic but like. we dont bite i promise#also like. listening to the tracks and reading their descriptions can generally help a lot#doatk#ask

I really should've known the episode was gonna end on a cliffhanger.
But alas, I still have class tomorrow, and I have to go to bed, so...
That said, I feel so bad. Derek really tried so hard to keep Scott and Stiles out of it, and Chris really tried so hard to keep Allison and Lydia out of it, but one episode in, one day back at school, and they're already all being dragged back in again.
I guess when you're tied to the supernatural, there's really not much you can do, huh....
But man, do I appreciate our protective parents and our protective Alpha for the effort they put in.
Unfortunately, these things never last long...
So anyways I guess I have to wait to hear more.
The season continues tomorrow.
#these poor kids#the worst part is#they're good at what they do#and they know it#so they don't even feel okay running away from it#'cause like#they know how much they can help#and they don't want to#but gosh darnat do they want to#i mean#look at allison#so desperately trying to avoid investigating#but doing it naturally#look at scott#picking up on everything derek wasn't saying#not wanting to look#but wanting to look#and asking questions#and hating what he finds#but wanting to help#stiles doesn't even try admittedly#but he's always investigating something lol#it's just how he is#anyways#i can't wait for more lol#teen wolf season 3

i dont consider myself a 'fashion guru' by any means but one thing i will say is guys you dont need to know the specific brand an item you like is - you need to know what the item is called. very rarely does a brand matter, but knowing that pair of pants is called 'cargo' vs 'boot cut' or the names of dress styles is going to help you find clothes you like WAAAYYYY faster than brand shopping
#also theres no one good place to learn this generally ive picked up yhe knowledge by asking questions#or reading through catalogues. paying attention to the words used to describe clothing styles i like

I want to add another point and perspective to this as well because I just had this discussion with my partner about why people are staying narrow-minded or why there's such a lack of understanding for issues like queerness or race theory.
But instead of purity culture we were more focusing on the aspect of capitalism and it's influence on suppressing knowledge and thus furthering hate and discrimination.
It's not just that people willfully don't know or care about these topics and grow to be hateful but that they are literally forced and made to...
Capitalism takes our time, the most valuable resource we have, and for example by being stuck in a 40h work week, living paycheck to paycheck, few people have the time nor energy to use their precious little free time to sit down and learn about a topic that is new to them. They also on top of that may not even have the resources or access to that knowledge.
So it's not just purity culture that's the issue here.
And to get back at OPs original point about non-LGBTQ people asking questions - ehy would you not just be glad they ask and show interest? Why would you not just answer them?
I would always answer them! I would always take the little time I have to educate them because I'd rather give them a proper explanation when they're already showing me they want to learn, then to rebuff them and tell them to do their own research, leading to them either finding false information (because they never learned or would also still have to learn how to select correct or filter only the needed information) or having them not even get to doing their own research because to them it would be a mammoth task...
Because I remember being them once, I remember the time and effort it took to learn, to make mistakes along the way and feel uncertain and overwhelmed looking at all the terms and words and information. I may have been privileged enough to have had the time to educate myself thoroughly on my own and have the persistence and resources to do so, but I also know that I could have been less fortunate and then some help and the opportunity to just ask without judgement would have made all the difference.
thinking about that time I was at some kind of diversity and inclusion thing that involved discussion in small groups and one straight girl said she really wanted to be a good ally but sometimes there were some things she just didn’t know and was too afraid to ask for fear of accidentally being offensive. and as the only queer person in this 4-5 person group I said well go ahead and ask me, I don’t care if you accidentally use the wrong term right now or whatever, it’s better to talk about it and learn something, I love talking about queerness and I’ll answer the best I can. and she just looked so nervous and in the end wound up refusing to ask for fear of causing offense. and it wasn’t just the group setting, I’ve known straight people to act similarly even when it’s just one on one
and just. you guys. this is what purity culture and the “if you don’t know something you were never a real ally in fact you’re a bigot in fact you’re worse than bigots because you pretended not to be one” attitude does. how can our allies be allies if they’re scared to talk to us? to ask questions, to make mistakes, to learn? can we please bring back the idea of “in good faith”? there’s way more to say here about identity politics and virtue signaling and acting like language is more important than action but I’m too tired for that right now
please feel free to add to the discussion (regardless of if you’re queer or not), I would love to hear about people’s experiences with this and if others feel differently about it

It's like we all collectively forgot as a society that friendship and just connection in general takes effort. Even if you meet someone you immediately click with, it takes hanging out about 20 times (!) to become friends. And guess what, some of those 20 meetings might be awkward or unimpressive.
We all want to reap the benefits (having a friend circle, having a partner, getting married) without doing the work (going to events, interacting with people, learning to handle conflict maturely, dating). Myself included. If I could, I'd never leave the house or go on another mediocre date again... except, that's part of the process.
I guess what I'm trying to say is, the cure to the loneliness epidemic is touching some grass and building tolerance for tedious in-person interactions.

Attention Pennsylvania voters!
Senator Bob Casey’s race is now at a margin of 0.53%.
An automatic recount in PA is triggered with a margin of 0.5%. That’s a difference of 0.03% or a little over 2,000 votes. We need to make sure every ballot is counted here, and there’s thousands of uncounted ballots right now due to voter error.
Did you mail in a ballot? Check to see it was accepted here:
If it says anything other than accepted/counted/etc, your ballot needs your attention. A mistake in filling it out means that your ballot will not count unless you “cure” it. Check your county’s curing policies:
See full instructions for curing by county here.
You have until November 12 to cure your ballot in PA.
Do you know someone who mailed in a PA ballot? Please pass these links on to them. You may be the difference between their vote counting or not in a super close race.
Everyone else, you can help PA voters cure their ballots. If you live in Pennsylvania, you can help canvass in your county (see links in this thread). If you are in another state, you can sign up to call voters and help them cure by phone.
Want to help another state? Sign up for a shift through November 19.
#signal boost#us politics#kamala harris#pennsylvania#bob casey#us elections#if you’re feeling sad i promise this work will help lift your spirits#it feels good helping empower voters to make sure their vote counts#pennsylvania has tons of rules with mail in ballots where voters can make mistakes#the harris votes in pa are most suspicious to me#we just learned all the pa democrats in the state legislature held onto their seats#highly unusual for harris to be so low if downticket races are doing this good and bob casey is this close#a recount would mean all ballots recounted and charged to the state not the campaign#edited the signup links to go directly to the mobilize pages#if you have any questions please don’t hesitate to ask#by my count we still have 16 house races too close to call and the seats are 199-211 currently so every seat counts to hold trump back#full instructions link is now updated
