I am once again thinking about how odysseus who witnessed the horrors that the captured women went through (one of his main duties in the iliad was taking the women back home and making sure they were as comfortable as possible and safe because he was the only one trusted not to violate them further due to his devotion to penelope. And in the odyssey part of the reason circe sent him to the underworld was so that he'd have to listen to all these women's stories (before he could talk to the prophet) ). Who was one of the few that saw women as people and respected their space and opinions. And was then put in those exact same situations. I don't have the motivation right now to do a full literary analysis of this (I'll site the sources too) but oh man one day I'm going to write a full essay on this.

crazy to think that people my age want to have sex… and that many of them have had sex before… and that they are actively seeking out people to have sex with….. and that they talk about sex with their other sex-having friends……. couldn’t be me but y’all have fun tho! stay safe out there and stuff

I remember the exact moment too I was on a road trip after The Worst Day Of My Life in the backseat w a broken toe working my way through the beatles by bob spitz and got to some part abt john and brian and I sat there at some fuck ass gas station in kansas having Realizations and reeling. which is, in retrospect, incredibly funny

My 3 little cousins were baptized today. "Triggered" is kind of a strong word but being in a catholic church again... I'm a little fragile rn ngl.

So I posted this photo of my living room and my queer art wall to a maximalist FB community I follow:

… and unsurprisingly some jackass showed up in the otherwise kind comments to say, “Because knowing how someone has sex is so important.”

I am restraining myself from commenting back as the mods are usually good at nipping this sort of thing in the bud but … oh, honey, if you think my mom’s wall of bland family photos of her mostly-straight relatives doesn’t tell me and everyone else how they fuck to make all those kids, you’re in for an unpleasant surprise.

(Also, considering the number of real people in these photos and art pieces who died at the hands of bigots, Nazis, and homophobic government handling of an epidemic, then yes, their sexuality and gender is sort of important.)

One of the most delightful things about my sims drama is telling someone about the insanity of it all, and capping it with, “And by the way he’s a cat boy, the only cat boy in the world, just for context” and watching my friends lose it laughing or groaning in pain.

Get you a friend who wants to listen to your sims insanity bullshit lol

[lesbianusahana]

Do not get the wrong idea… although my username and icon are lesbianusahana and I frequently talk about how gay I am I’d actually rather jump out a window on a several story tall building than come out to my family as a lesbian

every time a female character in a male written anime/manga decides to quit fighting or being a “tomboy” for a shitty boring male protagonist, another far right incel is born

i dont know if i ever shared this story but washing my hair and thinking of my dad reminded me of it

when my dad died, he had his hair pretty long and in a ponytail and we asked for his ponytail to be cut so we could save his hair

it might seem weird and it hasnt been done in my family before in my knowledge but we all consented to his hair being cut and it wouldnt have been something he opposed

when his funeral was coming up i was debating cutting my hair the same way, just forming a ponytail and having my cousin cut it but before the funeral when i was messaging my cousin to ask her, i felt a warm tingling pressure on the top of my head

i dont know if i believe in ghosts and never physically interacted with ghosts (i guess you could say ive "felt" them before, like feeling a towering but gentle male presence in my grandmas house that matched with her father's description) but ive never physically seen apparitions or heard voices or felt touches

it felt like my dad was placing his hand on my head and it was so weird and comforting that i decided not to cut my hair and only once that thought crossed my mind and i deleted the message to my cousin was when the sensation stopped

call it a hallucination brought on by grief or a supernatural occurrence but it definitely sticks with me now and id like to believe it really was my dad telling me not to cut my hair for his sake
