Comments: Body shaming is never okay.

Extremely irksome as an autistic person to ask a clarifying question and be told you’re “splitting hairs” when you genuinely just don’t understand because there isn’t enough information. Like, buddy. This is me at my most basic level of “what do you mean by that.” You wanna see me split hairs? If you really saw how thin I could slice a hair you’d hurl
I will split a hair into smaller halves every hour my demands of mutual participation in communication are not met

Might fuck around and paper my town with these. Feel free to join me.
Would you be willing to post the files for these so we can have the best quality copy for printing purposes?
Here's a folder with the files! I couldn't get the last one to PDF correctly with the image, so it's still text.
Just a reminder from me (a military brat) and my parents (both military from military families): The most definitive way to know a recruiter is lying to you is to listen closely to what they're saying. If you hear sounds, they're lying.

”getting thicker skin” is great in theory but I think for some people “get better at handling your thin skin” is gonna be way more helpful advice. I have strong emotional reactions to criticism and they might never go away, but i can continue to try and handle each situation maturely and that’s the important part. Sometimes irrational feelings are chronic and living with them is better than trying to beat yourself up into not having them.
This is great advice because it still recognizes that "handle the situation maturely" still needs to be the endgame.

horror movies are so much scarier when the actors look like an average sampling of the human population. and the house is a little messy
when everyone has veneers and the house is pristine and tastefully decorated: (in the back of my mind) these people were hand-selected for visual appeal. this is a set. this is a story
when the actor has a little acne and there are dirty dishes in the sink: aaaaahhhhh this is just like Me and My House ahhhhhhhhhh!!!!
when everyone has veneers and the house is pristine and tastefully decorated: (in the front of my mind) these people had it coming

you'll spend so long in deep discussions of gender online and then go talk to someone in your real life family and find out they still havent gotten past "women can be good at things" and its like oh okay jesus christ i forgot some people are still on the baby steps huh
Yeah. It’s crazy.

I've always said that the anti-vaxx movement was never about "oh we have legitimate concerns about the manufacturing of this specific COVID vaccine and I would appreciate further clarification on how it works, please" but they are against ALL vaccines and by extension, medicine in general. Whatever they are because of new-age "natural" fallacies, misinformation, or "bill gates is microchiping us" conspiracy theories, it should be approached as that. You shouldn't get in the minutiae of what RNA is or debunking a paper that has been debunked a hundred times over now, we should address WHY they are against vaccination and medicine in particular.
I think it's better to convince and educate people but we shouldn't treat people who openly spread propaganda about it just as harmless live and let live opinions, they are perhaps the biggest hazard to public health worldwide right now.

I keep seeing people talk about the "oncoming cult boom" like we haven't been here for like three years.
Here's a fun game:
Go onto incognito mode and start a fresh account ok the social media website of your choice. When it asks you about your interests, pick "health and wellness" and/or the religion of your choice and fill the rest in with whatever you like. See how long it takes the algorithm to give you straight up cult recruitment videos.
When I tried this on TikTok I got some in under 30 seconds.
this is important information but i also feel like a lot of people aren’t really able to identify cult-produced media on their own. here is a (non comprehensive) list of red flags for this:
- presenting an image of a wholesome, good, unified in-group while simultaneously presenting the out-group as shameful, dirty, or evil
- presenting the narrative “i would be dead if i didn’t join X”
- bragging about adhering to high-control rules, such as restriction of sleeping, eating, or ability to leave
- heavy emphasis placed on “retreats,” aka trauma bonding or brainwashing members en masse in a secluded area
- spiritual leader (typically a living person, or often in the case of older cults, a board of directors) presented as an infalliable extension of god
- “comfort zones” and similar concepts presented as an inherently bad thing that you need to overcome
- constant recruitment efforts
- public faces of the organization are typically extremely extroverted and physically abled, and there’s a spoken or unspoken shame placed on the group members who don’t resemble this
- there is an ex-member community that insists the group should be acknowledged as a cult (search for “ex-[group name]” or “[group name] abuse” to find relevant online pages)

Not gonna lie, the apps seem like a bit of a red flag to me. “Yes just put your location into our friendly little app, that’ll keep you safe from ICE and DEEEEEEFINITELY won’t bring them directly to you 😇”
But maybe I’m wrong. Maybe there’s a ton of help available. Chat, you got anything?
iceout.org is probably what you're looking for! It uses both locally-reported and crowdsourced data to show ICE activity and its severity. Since it's used to mark where ICE has been, it shouldn't risk exposing one's own location to them.
That helps a great deal- thank you!!

if you ever find yourself thinking “wow I scraped the bottom of the barrel with my energy with that and came out okay!” that’s the devil talking. you did not come out okay. you borrowed energy from the future. you will repay it if you don’t rest and replenish the borrowed energy first.
this one took off quickly - are you guys ok

Probably this century will be the first one where someone suffers a penis injury when the spacecraft they're in unexpectedly accelerates mid-coitus
I bet the graph of those injures per year will be like that graph of airplane speeds, where it goes up for a while then plateaus, and people in the 2100s will write articles about how this shows our stagnation, degeneracy and lack of belief in the future.

you will probably not look like a skinny white anime girl when you transition you will likely look like someone's mom and you need to realize how swag this is
I saw a picture of my mom last week and did a double take because we both realized how similar we look. skinny white anime girls are not real women but your mom is. I promise you look like a real woman
