#maybe it’s cuz I learned it in school
Text
You know I think we can resolve a lot of our problems and moral dilemma by asking ourselves "does this really matters that much?"
#this is mostly in relation to current moral panic specifically in france but i think it van apply to a variety of contexts#like idk if yall know but france hate muslim people (specifically women) so much and it's so absurd#like... so much debate over muslim girls in school specifically#'we can't let them wear hijabs cuz hijab is a symbol of oppression*' okay well does it really matters that much?#isn't it more important to let them go to fucking school in peace instead of forcing them to remove it#(*i know it's stupid but that's the mainstream view of the hijab in france)#'but we have to stay religiously neutral at school' why? i understand teachers being religiously neutral but students who care?#wouldn't it be better to let anyone exprime their identity instead of forcing a standard‚ so‚ y'know‚ people can learn about diversity?#'well sometimes they refuse to go to swimming lessons because they don't want to be half naked in front of boys/men'#yeah i can understand that somehow not sure it's specific to their religion tho maybe we shouldn't force kids to get half naked idk#maybe we could allow them to go to female only swimming lessons if they want to#'WHAT?! but that's separating bous from girls that's sexist and we won't surrender to that backwards vie-' does it really matters?#obviously i don't believe society should be segregated between men and women but here isn't it more important that those kids learn to swim?#(yeah i fucking hate this debate)#and that works for a lot of subjects#'but trans people-' that's 0.09% of people what the fuck are you talking about#'but if we let kids transition and they regret it' yeah what if? sometimes people do shit they regret (but let's look at the stats too)#if they have regrets we should support and help them and that's it#and like‚ sometimes the answer is 'yes' and if it is you have to keep fighting for your cause#but you have to choose your fights donlt waste energy again things that don't matter that much

Those posts that are like “Americans don’t know geography and are so stupid and self centered” that are then filled with Americans being like “WELL ACTUALLY ITS BECAUSE THEY DONT TEACH US IN SCHOOL THATS NOT OUR FAULT” make me roll my eyes because like. If you don’t know basic geography because, supposedly, you never ONCE had a class that taught it at all, you should probably get on that. If you can whine on tumblr you can learn where other countries are and a little bit about them
But also as a certified American, I distinctly remember in my freshman year world geography class (a REQUIREMENT class we needed to graduate) there were ppl who dead ass could not even identify the state we actively lived in let alone countries on another continent and also completely avoided actually learning these things so maybe Americans are just fucking stupid and self centered

Thank you for the rec @into-the-clintoris !

Umm oh my God i loved the idea of this prompt. Also apropos of nothing i envisioned them doing this as a high schooler... And then as a high schooler i envisioned them being a scene kid and it NEEDED to happen. So uh. Here 😈🐝
Image ID: A sketched digital illustration of Hollis from “The Adventure Zone: Amnesty” as a teenager. Hollis is light-skinned and wears their hair cut and dyed in a scene style, with long bangs swept across their forehead, two longer sections of hair in front of their ears, and stripes of bleached “raccoon stripes” in the front. There is also a section of hair dyed orange. They are wearing a black tank top, jeans, and a bright orange raincoat tied around their waist. They are looking intimidating with a metal baseball bat across their shoulders, which has the words “they/them” carved or etched into it.
Below the image is a screenshot of the Direct Message request for the drawing. It says “Ok hopefully this is simple enough for what you were looking to draw but I’ve always had this headcanon that TAZ Hollis carved “they/them” onto a baseball bat and used that as a weapon so they could literally beat people over the head with their pronouns. So that. Please draw that.

ughhhhhh remind me to never ride motor vehicles ever again
#when i was little‚ i used to read books on seven hour car rides. i was practically immune to carsickness.#as i got older‚ that immunity persisted. to some extent.#as i got even older‚ i started taking meds. like‚ a LOT of meds. enough that even I couldn't take them all in one swallow.#and somewhere along the way‚ i was prescribed a pill that tended to make me slightly nauseous on occasion.#and then that immunity disappeared.#and now i get carsick. i have never gotten carsick before‚ and i do not know how to manage it.#i ALSO had not gotten seriously sick in so long that i forgot where the threshold was.#on November 17th‚ 2023‚ i threw up on my school bus for the first time ever.#(partially due to the fact that i never rode busses before that year‚ partially due to the immunity.)#i didn't know where the point was where it got to “we need to stop the bus” and i learned the hard way.#luckily there was only me‚ the bus driver‚ and his kid‚ my friend on board. so it was generally fine. but that was where i learned the signs#and todayyyyyyy i had those signs once again. and immediately panicked.#luckily we were maybe a minute from home so i just hopped off the car and ran to the bathroom#i was at the “swallowing down saliva” stage which is fun cuz the saliva tastes weird so youve got that taste in your mouth for the next hour#i did NOT throw up. i was very near it tho#this has been a memoir in my tags#and i need to take several lay downs#existenceunrelateds

i don't know when or why it started, but at some point in the past few months my right leg has started jittering whenever i laugh???
#eliot posts#like i'm not complaining bc it's kinda cute. like a dog whose leg twitches when you scritch its stomach.#but why???#also i think my laugh changed slightly?#it's still a delightfully hilariously ugly wheezy cackle but there's bits if a normal laugh in there too#then again it's been a while since i've laughed REALLY hard so maybe that's the same. but my ''chuckle at memes'' laugh is a lil different#i never laugh as loud when i'm physically alone than when i'm with other people#the last time i laughed like. really hard and uncontrollably was months ago and for The Worst reason#my friend had broken his knee for the third time#i was there for the first (high school gym class. during a game called NOODLE TAG.)#and he told me that the third was just from slipping in the rain#and i asked what the second time was#and friends. you are not gonna guess his answer here:#he broke it LEARNING KPOP DANCES#and i felt bad laughing at his misfortune but it was just such an unexpected and strange answer#and i was in a giggly tired sort of mood#so i fuckin LOST IT#like it got to the point where i could barely breathe and i fuckin drooled a little cuz i couldn't stop long enough to swallow my spit#but he was a very good sport about it. and i think even started giggling at me laughing at him#it's pretty easy to make him laugh (whether on purpose or accidentally like that) but it still makes me happy#and makes me feel accomplished#i love making people laugh so much#i think i lost a bit of the comedic edge i had back when i was a teen tho#bc i socialize in person way less than i did then bc i am no longer forced to be around people all day long#which is nice in some ways but awful in others#but i could get groups of people losing their shit. i think my specialty was telling stories#(lots -but not all- of folks have a sort of specialty with their jokes.#for example: one of my friends was a MASTER at bizarre but accurate descriptiond of shit)#my best story to tell was the 'honey‚ i had a rough week' story. i couldn't tell it very well over text abd after so long since it happened#but it's a rollercoaster. there's accidental amputation. accidental indecent exposure. drugs. death. piss. and a geriatric dog.

also the feeling of winning a politically based argument with my dad is soooo fucking good
#talking about bitchass sunak and how he's proposed a £5-10 fee for if u wanna go to the doctors#and i am EXTREMELY against that shit#the nhs is free for a fucking reason. nobody should have to drop a single PENNY to be able to live#anyway i said that (without the swears) and he started to tell me why actually it would “reduce nhs strain!!” cuz apparently ppl just go to#the hospital to “get out of the cold”#and then i said but dad you see how that's entirely another problem. to solve that problem you fix the cold ???????#(ie. drop heating bills. like come ON it doesn't take a 200IQ to figure that out)#at this point he walks outta the room and closes the door. reopens the door upon me yelling that he was avoiding saying im right#then he comes back and tells me (very patronisingly) that coming out of the cold means just coming into hospital with unnecessary problems#to which i said well i have not heard of anyone doing that (we are indian and won't go to the doctor unless like. we are fucking dying)#and he says you'll be surprised... and i was like ok. i bet its just ppl who are lonely. which again !! another problem entirely !!#and i said well putting the fee in place won't actually stop that. ppl who are lonely will keep being lonely#and maybe we'll see an increase in elderly suicides. or more reports of houses that people just stop coming out of#or MAYBE we'll start hearing reports of ppl who die of entirely treatable diseases and illnesses cuz they couldn't afford to go#or were in the middle of choosing between food for their kids and heating one (1) room and decided fuck it this recurring stomach ache#might just be menopause or whatever the fuck. i goes to my dad people play down symptoms all the TIME#and it starts from youth !!! from school !! we are told if u have a headache or a stomach ache just come in ^_^ its better than missing !!#like wtf. what kind of shit system is that. it feels horrible to come to school when people are very clearly ill#you deserve to be resting not suffering through a whole day in pain & not able to breathe & honestly u don't learn shit on those days#didn't tell my dad that. but. he responds by saying there's ppl whove said that stuff like milk bread eggs should be free. and i said yea#and bathroom products. by which i mean toilet paper and pads and tampons#and he was clearly expecting me to disagree with this because he said um ok. well yeah ! exactly#mans changed his tone SO fast once he figured out he was not winning this. it felt so good#i love being a semi adult in this household where despite always being treated like one not actually having the opinions to feel like one#anyway thats my storytime. moral of the story is basic necessities should be free. full stop

i cannooottttt stand the way that parents will just subtly reinforce gender roles in their extremely young children who don't know what gender is in the first place. i was playing music with some friends and a little kid and his dad were hanging about cuz he knew said friends and the kid wanted us to play the music faster and his dad was like 'ohhh he's a boy alright' and i just. lost a little faith in humanity. in what world except a cishet human's is wanting to go faster related to gender in any way?? he's a FOUR YEAR OLD. for FUCK'S SAKE. i cannot stand parents
