one of the things about the trends and the body image and all of it is that. you can't unsee it. and it doesn't matter that you know logically it's stupid and that logically any person who has a problem with your body can fuck off and die, but it's almost like gore. you flinch even knowing the blood onscreen is fake. you sense a pain that was invented. your body creates the phantom sensation - this thing should be avoided. so okay.
it's not that you won't wear the skinny jeans or the choker or whatever isn't "in style" anymore. and sometimes the demands are so buckwild that you can just ignore them, plain and simple.
but you do think twice sometimes. you do notice things about yourself you hadn't even considered. you notice the hip dips and the shape of your cheekbone and the skin over your eyes. it's been pointed out to you - so you notice. and sometimes it's like fuck you i look fucking amazing and sometimes it's like nobody even remembers that being a thing probably and sometimes - it's fucking devastating. like someone drew a bright red circle around each insecurity. on those days, you wonder - does anyone else see?
because the blame is on you either way. you have a terrible catch-22. if you want to fit in, it's on you to be sure that you look good, that your makeup isn't the "heinous" 2016 style (even if that's the style that flatters you), that your bodyfat settles in the appropriate landmap. and at the same time: it is also on you to ignore the programming. it is on you to get over your decades of social exposure to a trillion-dollar industry and just not care! about these things.
in the comments of course there are people who would advise you nothing with nuance. just ignore it! sure. nobody actually cares about these things. absolutely. this isn't how normal people look. of course not, you know that. you weren't born yesterday. you know about the photoshop and the pricetag and the brand manager.
but like. the media still exists. there are videos on how to manage your hip dips (your skeleton. you know it's your skeleton, and it doesn't matter, does it, because it has a name now, doesn't it?) and how to finally correctly wear the clean-girl-trend and how to have enough money to wear the latest "casual outfit". there are videos critiquing your entire generation for how you dress. how "cringe" it is to wear a certain style of necklace. an influencer says - let's be honest! nobody cares if you just have confidence!
but people do care. you've seen it. you know they care. you've been made fun of enough. it's not, like, a horrible sin to just want to fit in. it's not saying anything new to say i just don't want to be made fun of.
somewhere along here, you learn - your body is more like an accessory. not a home, not a sensation. it is an object like mom jeans or opera gloves. something to manipulate, not something to love.

I know first hand how hard it is to find reliable small pet care advice you can trust with your pet's life. To make it easier, I wrote multiple blog posts backed by scientific articles and explained not just what, but why. Because the vast majority of pet care websites out there don't do that, or they only get one species right and the rest suffers. Or, their first priority is not one which aligns with your pet's best interest. I'm striving to be different in all the best ways with ReliaPet. By caring for pets and their people. https://www.reliapet.net/

two things that bug me as a fanfic author: 1. the show not providing information that is relevant for a community to tell stories about the same thing ('what is the name of the moon where vader and obi-wan fight in episode 6 of the kenobi show?') and 2. the show changing* known information and invalidating years of community work ('what is din djarin's actual first name?')

Seeing alot of horrible shit scrolling around rn. Wanted to remind everyone you matter. People love and care about you. There's alot of hate out there right now and it's easy to get swept up and feel lost and alone. It's easy to feel forgotten but know this: No matter what I'm proud of you, you all have a place here and if any of you ever need someone my door is always open. Stay safe and please look after yourselves.

Ok I think this is great and I fully support but I want to add in and say we should talk about passive suicidal people more. I feel like more people should check in with the people in their lives and be like hey don’t just stand there if a car is coming at you, we need you here with us. Like telling them not to unalive themselves is good, just not as effective when they think ok I’ll just look at the train coming my way and not move so it’s technically not suicide. I just think when you make it a bit more personal, they feel a little more seen and think maybe someone cares after all. Lord knows I needed that when I was younger. (Also the message above is great I’m not criticizing it I promise I just want more people to think about stuff like this)
To any suicidal followers I may have: This is a sign to not kill yourself. You are loved and the world is special because you are in it. Keep holding on.
-PLEASE REBLOG THIS YOU MAYBE ARE SAVING SOMEONES LIFE
You are special and amazing , If you need to talk or some help send me a dm and I will talk to you.

Before January 2025:
If you are a USAmerican in a relationship that might be affected by legislation that dissolves same-sex marriages, who may no longer be recognized as next-of-kin, especially if you have children, get your rights in writing!
Your marriage certificate may not be enough to prove you have rights to make medical decisions for non-biological children or for a same-sex spouse or partner.
Go to a lawyer, get it spelled out as clearly as possible that you have a voice in emergency medical and legal situations.

white americans when you tell them that the idea of climate change as an impending disaster is a reductive first world perspective because it’s a tangible reality for many in the global south already:

hey for everyone talking about jury nullification etc etc: it only works if you lie and say you dont know what it is. if youre chosen for jury duty and they ask you if you know what it is, you say no. here's an article going more in depth, and here's the cgp grey video about it.
like. just so we're clear, it's good to know about, but if you go into a courtroom and start talking about nullification, you could very well have voided your place on that jury. be smart about it 👍
