it always rubs me the wrong way that when people make fun of the british it is more often than not things that poor people and british people of colour do. like making fun of english breakfast for example i understand, it may not look appetising. but that's because it's a poverty struggle meal LMAO 😭 if you wanna make fun of the british then make fun of the racist xenophobic rich white english tories (because remember that great britain also contains countries that are colonised and to this day are negatively affected by the english, namely the entirety of wales)
"british" includes british poc too, and their status as a person of colour doesn't make them.. not british? so if you don't mean to offend marginalised groups then... don't say british people. say tories. say old white english men. say the royal family. please, have the sensibility and sympathy to acknowledge that the youth of britain are not responsible for colonisation or actions of their government and are in fact harmed by it as well.

After still needing to unfollow people because of their smooth-brain takes about Mexico, I'll say it on main:
You have never experienced a driver death, or even a serious injury, and it shows.
Then again, you probably would have been one of the people saying that Jules Bianchi dying is a shame, but the idea that drivers can be killed is what makes F1 exciting. Wait, no, Jules was handsome, you probably would've wished it on someone else. Unless you didn't like him for some bullshit reason, then he would've deserved it, right? That's the type of shit I see in your posts and tags about drivers you don't like. Karma will come for you.
There is no reason for men with this level of talent to do things that intentionally endanger other drivers. It's not cute or cunty or a slay, it's fucking dangerous. At the absolute kindest, it's grossly unsportsmanlike. If you don't understand why things are dangerous, sit down, shut up, and listen to all the people explaining it to you. Maybe listen to the 19 drivers who agreed it needs to be addressed.
I hope you never experience watching one of these men die or get seriously injured, for their sake, not yours. I hope you can grow up and realize great drivers don't need to intentionally put others at risk without needing to personally see someone lose their life on a track.

the hse's advice on covid self-isolation is such dogshit. 'you can come out of isolation after 5 days but don't interact with anyone high risk for 10 days' cool how do i know the person sitting next to me on the bus isn't high risk. the person in line behind me getting groceries, the person i make small talk with in the pharmacy queue. literally eugenics-adjacent advice

one thing I have learned about being poor is that you cannot for a moment stop thinking about it
#theres no peace#every little thing reminds me we are poor#seeing friends having electricity wifi heat food gas. it all costs money. and bills and fees and charges happen all the damn time#im constantly worried that i am measing up somehow or im not keeping track of my finances properly#the person handling our disability assistance application keeps coming back with question after question about my job#and i have so much doubt and fear that ive made some mistake in my answers that will disqualify us from support#and theres this sick backwards stupid thing where applying for and being on disability support is discouraging me from trying to make money#because the more i make the less likely we'll get support but i need to make money to live#its just fucked. and once we're on support i have to make monthly reports of my income so ill feel like im explaining myself all the fuckin#time#cus the system isnt built in a way that makes sense for self employed ppl who have business expenses to account for#sorry for the ranting i cant sleep#truly truly i think poverty is making me a worse persin#more anxious more resentful more jealous more miserable more spiteful#i have so little and there is so little i can do to help it#i want things in a more desparate and even childish way than i used to eant things#spend a lot more time fantasizing about magically having expendable income#not to mention the constant exponential guilt that comes from asking for help or recieving help. its guilt i need to unlearn but i feel it

Would anyone mind sharing cute things with me tonight? It's been a rough evening. Doesn't matter if it's cute screenshots or pets or plushies. Just something cute.

Just heard about what happened to Inquisitore3 on Tik Tok.
To say that I am disgusted and outraged is an understatement.
I'd say that the three people who were directly involved in spreading false grooming accusations that led a 23 year old to take his own life should be held accountable for their actions, but as you'd expect, all three of them have either deleted or privated their accounts to escape the consequences.
How fucked up do you have to be to deliberately collaborate to ruin someone's life for kicks?

Direct investment in social housing pays for itself through social rents, reduced costs of temporary accommodation, and higher social wellbeing.
There is simply no justification or need for this cost to fall on current social housing tenants by raising their rents.

"A moment on the lips, a lifetime on the hips" being said like that's a bad thing. How beautiful is it that the memories and experiences my body has gone through will be etched into me, even if temporary, even if it isn't "flattering"? Why would I want to be alive if it meant that I am not permitted to live? And why should I avoid myself like I am a sin, like I am a curse, worse than death and pain?
I will envelop myself in layers of care and love, even if it means that I am slightly different. I will continue to do so even if I am alone. I have survived long enough. I will rest now, I will find peace.

“Something’s wrong,” Inosuke says. “Obviously. I’ve never seen him this sick before,” Zenitsu says, lighting a lantern and pulling paper and ink from his bag. Inosuke shakes his head. “I don’t think he’s sick. I think somethings wrong.” -- Tanjirou will do anything for his friends. They need food? He makes some. They need encouragement? He gives it. They need help? He is already there. So what happens when he's the one in need?
In this AU, just the once, everybody lives! Or more accurately: everyone survives, living takes a little learning.

got thoroughly yelled at by my parents (well. mostly my father. as per usual.) Again over a monetary situation and really just barely grasping for any justification to not suck it up and kms already .Only reason im having a panic attack instead of actually doing anything is he was so mad he wouldnt even finish a conversation with me just hung up so I didnt get chewed out half as much as normal but I Know its still coming eventually. no helping it when he gets apocalyptic like this. and I was finally having a slightly better time these past couple days too. whatever karmic law I've offended please just take me now I am not stable enough for any of this. If you want me back in the cycle of reincarnation hurry up and commit Im so deeply over this death by a thousand cuts shit

So I'm moving across the country in the next coming weeks which has brought me to downsizing my craft bins and going through my huge collection of paints and wool and fabrics. If you don't hear back from me assume I drowned in embroidery suppplies.
