For real tho health freaks who scream about how sugar and salt will kill us all and try to push for restrictions on things like candy and chips for SNAP recipients or politicians who try from time to time to replace food stamps all together and give out Government Approved Staples like bread and peanut butter and Government Cheese are gonna kill a whole lotta sick and disabled people like
Diabetics
POTS sufferers
Hypotensives
People with peanut allergies
People with celiac disease or wheat allergies
The lactose intolerant
People who can't eat solid food
People who are undernourished for any reason and need all the calories they can pack on
So-called "picky eaters" who can't tolerate certain tastes and textures without getting violently ill
A myriad of other human conditions that cannot be neatly tallied into categories because the human body and human experience is vast and infinitely variable
But I don't think ableds really care about us and our health like they like to claim so they can harass us about it, do you?

something about how when a guy sonic character has nothing going for him in canon or is from a game people dont like people will flesh him out and write 500 page fanfictions about him detailing their au backstory for him anyway. if he does something really really bad whether it was a mistake or fully intentional people are willing to think about and understand why he did what he did. or theyll just ignore it entirely or blame it on bad writing. but when a girl sonic character does any of those same things shes treated like the spawn of satan

I truly apologise but I've never found a character more irritating than Ruby Rocks. It is severely impacting my ability to watch a crown of candy because this bratty literally-the-embodiment-of-the-status-quo bitter bastard child won't stop sulking and being shitty to the only good surviving member of this royal bloodline (Saccharina).
The immediate Rocks family in general is so unsympathetic, I'm sorry but if you want me to feel bad over your personal growth journey you can't ALSO be a monarch who has absolute power over an entire nation-state. If you had literally the best education of everyone in your country and you're still an idiot I don't know what to tell you except that you're a resource hoarding pig who has not earned an iota of the power or luxury you have. They have SERVANTS and all they do is complain about going to class or doing their job. Hey if it sucks so bad demolish the state and redistribute your wealth <3 you won't <3

Me: yeah I just don't want a repeat of last year when I was asked to sew one dress and ended up sewing six.
My therapist: Boundary setting. It's ok to say no to things.
Me: yeah I know. But I think this is just going to be some alterations. The show opens really soon. So it should just be alterations.
*A couple hours later*
Person: How do you feel about sewing full garments? They'd be pre-cut.
Me: It depends on the garment.
Person: Just a few skirts in the period style.
Me: Ok I think I can do it.
*A few more hours later*
Me: *Lying in bed trying to sleep*
Me: ...wait a second... GOD I AM STUPID

It still makes me mad BTW that we're supposed to be rooting for Elizabeth's plan when the plane crash is just. Morally gross to me. Like you can sit here debating over Rapture, the innocence of the population, if Elizabeth's hand in the war was the spark that lit the flame or the punctuation mark on a sentence--but none of that changes the fact that the plane crash does not happen with Fontaine's input--which means it doesn't happen without Elizabeth putting the gun in Fontaine's hand.
The writers had her look through all of time to see the ending and gloss over the fact she had to approve of the death of 90 people for 1. She rationalized those lives away so she could die feeling better about herself. It's dumb writing! And they don't even bring it up! The people on the plane crash don't matter! They don't get acknowledged, they're just a a footnote in the grand scheme of tying canon in a knot. It's the complete opposite of Infinite's ending where the multiverse comes before one person, now one person is more important than everyone else.

idk the whole "standing up to celebrities" thing seems kinda useless, I mean, did you really think they were gonna like save you in dire times or something? fuck no. the celebrities are wastes of time and energy, focus on the real target which is politicians, celebrities are a waste of space tbr
