welcome to the horrors

@pissy-lissy

it's not toxic positivity to say "humankind has the capacity to do good when you least expect it" it's not naive to say "make room for joy or else it will fucking body you when it comes" and it's not stupid to say "I believe we will win." are you going to lay in a ditch for the rest of your life, darling?

kindness is defiance kindness is defiance kindness is defiance kindness is defiance my hope is not because i don’t see all the evil it’s in spite of it

Have you guys noticed how much the internet/technology just does not listen to you anymore? I click “don’t show this artist” on Spotify and I get recommended a music video by them on the front page. I click “skip this update” on a pop up every time I open a file organization app and it’s right back there every time. O click unsubscribe on a newsletter and it keeps showing up in my inbox!! I click “delete my account” and the next time I open the website they suggest I “reactivate”.

"You could get up early and do it before work" I could also wait for a magic beanstalk to start growing in my living room LMAO. Let's focus on things that happen in the real world

Actually genuinenly enjoying my customer service job sometimes

Customer (calling from Ireland): “Yes hello, I would like to -”

Sheep in the background: *gentle baa*

Customer: “Uh, sorry, what I want to do is -”

Sheep: *slightly more insistent baa*

Customer: “No, not now! -cough- Excuse me. I have a reservation and -”

Sheep: *VERY LOUD ACCUSATORY BAA*

Customer: Arnulf! Please be quiet, I am on the phone! … Sorry, I sincerely apologize on behalf of Arnulf.”

me: “I love and forgive him.”

Customer: “Don’t, he doesn’t deserve it. Anyway, I’m calling about -”

Arnulf: *small, very self-satisfied baa*

I still love this lol

It’s ruining my notes dude :’D

video description:

Video starts on a black woman wearing a light pink snapback hat with gold glasses and a blue shirt, sat in the backseat of a car on the passenger side, captioned "What is the most pettiest things you've taken after a breakup?" She asks the camera, "What's the most petty thing you've taken from your ex after your breakup? I'll go first."

Video cuts to a black woman with short hair in a floral shirt standing before a brick wall. What she says is as follows:

"Many years ago, just a few days before Christmas, my ex informed me that he was no longer happy; he was seeing someone else and um. He just wanted to 'move on' with his life. And he suggested that I move out after the holidays because" The woman shrugs.

"You know it was his house. And I understood that." The woman rolls her eyes.

"I left that same day. I called my sister she brought a U-Haul, and we got my stuff outta there. But when I say 'my stuff' I meant My Stuff.

"I took everything. He had nothing when I got there; I left him with nothing.

"And, to top it off..." She looks to her left, before looking at the camera again.

"I took the damn Christmas tree. Yes I did. Tied it to the top of my car, ornaments and all, I was riding down the highway ornaments falling off.

"I felt like the Grinch.

"It was exhilarating." A short pause.

"Ho ho ho you mother- I can't say that."

The TikTok logo appears, showing the video came from @ theraven225.

Hey. Look at me. Please leave yourself a note somewhere you'll see it later that says "it is going to take years if not decades to get the United States government to the level of functionality it had in November of 2024." If we elect a democrat in 2028, we are not going to be up and running by 2032.

Please make sure you have a reminder in your phone reminding you to not look at 2028/32/36 Democratic candidates and say "why are they not promising/delivering Cool Shit?" because you are going to understand that to get Cool Shit we must have competent people running a decently funded government, and we are not going to have that.

We are not getting UBI. We are not getting single payer healthcare. We are not getting free college or free preschool. We are not redistributing wealth on a large scale. We are not getting free internet. We are not getting ranked choice voting.

If we are lucky, we are going to get an IRS that can collect taxes, qualified schoolteachers, research grants, Social Security, and a government that thinks maybe it should be a priority for people around the worlds to not have AIDS, malaria or TB.

To be clear, I don't mean we should forget or take our eyes off the ultimate long-term goals of getting Cool Shit, but to get there, we're gonna have to support things like "half-measures" and "small steps" and "not tearing down people who won't get us all the way there" and "understanding that they are starting from the basement basically because every government institution is being decimated"

rewatching Jessica Jones I just need to say I am so. glad grateful relieved happy. that they let her be a fucking mess. a disaster of a human being. she’s not Hollywood SexyTM (though she is played by one of the most beautiful women in the world) she’s just a hot mess. she wears the same jeans every day and has a drinking problem and forgets to plug in her phone and gets her hair stuck to her face and she has ptsd and they say it in the first episode rather than just alluding to it and she’s mean and she sleeps with no pants on and she’s a bad friend sometimes (most of the time) but she’s damn good at her job and she’s an abuse survivor and she forgets to replace the toilet paper and flushes tampons and she’s just. she’s a normal, real, human woman. it’s a breath of fresh air for a woman on tv to not be sexualized any more than the men in the same show. I love it. I need so much more of it
