I was at friends last evening and we were eating in the backyard and suddenly a fox jumped from nowhere and crossed the backyard it was so amazing!! I never saw a fox this close I was so happy!

Aww! That's so cool! I'm glad it didn't try to steal your food 😁they're just so cute. I know, I know they're wild animals and it's important to keep a distance and not like treat them as a pet. But we can be happy to see one up close!

Thank you so much for sharing!

#lovely anons #i'm always so happy to see one too!#so i totally feel you anon #it's so difficult to keep a distance ugh cause they're so cute #and i just read an article yesterday #where a fox woke a guy up by standing next to the bed #like on the fourth floor #the fox used a scaffold to climb up there #and then through the window #imagine you wake up and there's a fox just standing next to you

forgive any incomprehensibility but the notion that the world can be cleanly split between the two immutable categories of 'the neurotypical' and 'the neurodiverse' ignores the reality that any person can at any point for any reason be arbitrarily 'diagnosed' by a 'professional' and shuttled between categories with no regard for the notions of 'accurate traits' or 'specific symptoms'. nice dichotomy what lies outside of it? you understand me?

#N posts stuff #i'm reading some old issues of 'Phoenix Rising' and a line in one of the articles really caught me #''we are questioning the very foundation of psychiatry which uses mental illness; which is often just behavior that is judged strange #by some usually conventional middle-class-standard of morality''#also thinking about that post i reblogged yesterday claiming that 'posture sway' is a Symptom of adhd like.#Embracing the pathologizing of average behaviors VS the like. weaponizing of diagnoses against 'undesirables'#idk am i making sense? lol #like people talk about this re: disability - the notion that anyone can become disabled at any time but that's usually in the context #of like. 'anyone is one bad accident away from being disabled' but Neurodiversity in particular does not even require that much #another Phoenix Rising tells the story of a woman who like. got a little sick at work and diagnosed as 'stress' and prescribed a #heavy tranquilizer that caused side effects no one had told her about; she got confused at her appointment and her subsequent #panic got her involuntarily committed as psychotic where they upped the medications and gave her ECT until the combo #caused so much brain damage that she seized and died. bc she threw up at work one day. the categories are not immutable and #the people who define them have agendas. who benefits from buying into this dichotomy? you understand what i'm saying?#anti psychiatry

According to a formal statement made by Stacy Gilbert, the former senior civil military adviser in the state department’s bureau of population, refugees, and migration, the United States has deliberately fabricated documents in order to make it look like Israel was not responsible for blocking aid in Gaza, despite several reports made not only by the United Nations, UNRWA, etc, but also Gilbert and other internal officials.

This is really important because under the Foreign Assistance Act, any country that blocks the delivery of US aid would be no longer be allowed to receive weapons and security assistance from the United States.

They intentionally falsified documents to ensure that the US government would be able to continue directly supporting genocide with arm sales.

#the article came out at about 2:00-2:30pm EST yesterday #obviously i encourage you to read the article yourself #you should always do that. dont just look at summaries and think youre getting everything #/lh #palestine #anyways whether you figured this was already happening or not its definitely something to have an official affirm what you already knew

shoutout to walmart for doing more for my community than the government officials are

#the situation here is being handled so poorly 👍#there was a news article i read that listed everything city officials said they were doing #but have given no evidence or proof of ACTUALLY doing and the article said they would continue reaching out #bc the officials were not responding to them #it took fucking KEMP for us to finally request federal aid #we weren't under a state of emergency until 2 hours AFTER the hurricane hit #i just #its fucking ridiculous #but there are some walmarts providing water hot meals wifi spots charging stations #abd i saw shower and layndry services listed as well ???#while the city gave out water twice in a location that was out of the way for much of the city #during a time when getting gas is a 4+ hour trip #while we're under a curfew #AND they cut our water for 2 days while none of us had power and it was 80-90F outside daily #now we're on a boil advisory #which again so much of the city can't do without POWER #but at least i could shower so long as i was careful jfjsjcj #anyway #yeah. YEAH.#fuck this city fuck our government fuck our mayor #hopefully biden approves our request for assistance and then maybe we can actually get something happening down here #sorry i just #i read about the walmart stuff and remembered all of the nothing happening from our government #and got angry #also i went to one of the water things they did yesterday and ended up just driving home bc the line was SO LONG #and like i get it i do but maybe idk have more than one set up in different areas??#or have it last longer than an hour or two????#idk. idk. im annoyed.#shh ac

oh the autism/catholicism combo is BULLSHIT I'm really interested in what I'm studying so I feel like it doesn't count as studying because I'm enjoying reading articles and not suffering enough

#this should count as a WIN why do i feel like im slacking off when i literally read 15+ articles yesterday #rays european hot girl phd #just because im not miserable doesn't mean im not working hard and being productive

tfw the israel-palestine situation is the first time my dad and i agree on anything politically

#diya says #i was fully expecting him to be pro-israel solely bc my parents are very conservative and i think he used to be #but this morning he literally was like 'i read this article on the history of gaza and it's so messed up what israel is doing over there'#and i was so pleasantly surprised #bc just yesterday i had argued with him over the voice referendum and just hearing him agree with me was startling #and then we talked about how the west is obsessed with the middle east #and how america fucks over every country out of self-interest 👍

just found out that donal finn was starring in a play 20 minutes from my house for 2 whole months this past fall, and i could have gone to see him in it and then MET him afterwards if only i’d known. don’t text.

#i just read an article by some wot fandom people who met him at that play! like he was just around talking to people afterwards!#it would've been right in the sweet spot where i know who he is but no one else does #so it would've been cool to meet him but also easy #he will never have that perfect level of celebrity again! and will never be in boston again! it is not a city that actors just Come to #if only my sudden crush on him had struck a few months ago rather than yesterday. my donal stalking skills were not up to snuff in the fall!#my disappointment is immeasurable and my day is ruined #donal finn

that fun moment when you realise some vaguely uncomfortable truths abt yourself but also you have No Clue what to do with them so you kinda just. ignore them

#turns out i may be more of a dirk kinnie than i originally thought #this is not a good thing #me.txt #dont read this i just need to get it out somewhere #so i. think i might be depressed #or like. my anxiety is *way* worse than i thought it was #idk i did a k10 test last night which is like a test therapists and psychologists and shit use to assess anxiety and depression levels #and apparently ive been experiencing 'high levels of distress' for the last four weeks #and it also linked a ton of anti suicide helplines and articles which i dont need but *fuck* that was kinda uh.#wild to see under an assessment of my mental health #idk #i had a really bad spiral yesterday which im still kinda riding out the after effects of now #so odds are i was projecting how shit i felt then onto the last four weeks #but still uh. not great i dont think #eh there isnt shit i can do abojt it

unfortunately a huge liker of the 1975.....

#⋯ ꒰ა starry thoughts ໒꒱ *·˚#what the fuck i literally only got into them. in january #and within the same month i got tickets for their concert in may. and i've streamer their music an abnormal amount #and funny to think i only started listening properly because i wanted to listen to alt music more because my classmate said my new short #reminded them of that. and then i just so happened to get attached to one of the songs. and remember i listened to another song the last #month. and now i'm here having read a fuck ton of articles and listened to all the music and. all that. oh my god #reminds me of the song 'girls' a bit ... feels like it was just yesterday! things fly by so fast #this is a joke btw uh i am actually glad to be a fan. don't come at me!

interesting how a contagious and deadly virus coming on its third year has also coincided with the making of probably hundreds of podcasts about death

#just got an ad for Another true crime-esque podcast but this one was about last words said on deathbeds.. death plain and simple #its interesting taking art history rn actually and reading all of these articles about how in times of war and mass death artists were #trying to find their way to deal with it and how it came out so differently for everyone #its the same thing now #i drafted a post yesterday saying how we're living in the 60s again and with every new ad about some podcast that talks about death you #can tell they're frightened and traumatized (rightfully so)..#theres this big scary thing we're all surrounded by but no one talks about it because its too hard #the 60s was the vietnam war. it was the cold war. it was the mccarthy era. it was civil rights protests. it was the predecessing years for #the 'war on drugs' that got passed in 1970 #and this era created some wacky art #and our era is creating wacky art #art is a reaction
