It's funny how the only thing that gives me solace is pretending I don't exist(?)

I sometimes wonder if the whole point of my life right, current incarnation or whatever the fuck, is to realize how pointless life is, and to wish for it to never happen again.

this pride, I’d like to remind everyone how thoroughly the aspec community was obliterated on here. I don’t think I’ll ever get over the whiplash of going from literally creating a tumblr to learn more about aspec identities and being so excited to finally have a place where I wasn’t broken—to watching the lgbt community and surrounding ‘allies’ utterly destroy what we had, watching blogs delete or quietly re-closet themselves, and being afraid to put anything regarding asexuality or aromanticism in my bio. I started blocking people once I started having nightmares
it’s still so hard to get people to take aphobia seriously, and ‘aphobe’ is constantly treated like a joke. I get anxious about mentioning my qpp in anything, I’ve seen how far people will go to tell someone their relationship is fake or ‘cringe’. sometimes it seems like noone remembers what it was like before, when we weren’t afraid. that we came looking for acceptance, and were thrown out on our asses for being largely neurodivergent.
I’m so glad we’re rebuilding, but I’ll never forget what that felt like. what it feels like

stop making fun of bad people for being fat or having small dicks or being socially awkward or whatever else you seem to think is a fair target. none of that shit has anything to do with why theyre bad. i don’t care if a nazi has a stutter or a terf has thinning hair or whatever. at best youre missing the point, at worst your comments are gonna hurt vulnerable people more than they will ever affect the shitty person you’re mocking. why are you so attached to these bullshit standards anyway?

Nikê
glittering Goddess of Victory, beloved of Zeus and Athene, earth-shattering Nike
"To Nike, Fumigation from Manna. O powerful Nike, by men desired, with adverse breasts to dreadful fury fired, thee I invoke, whose might alone can quell contending rage and molestation fell. 'Tis thine in battle to confer the crown, the victor's prize, the mark of sweet renown; for thou rulest all things, Nike divine! And glorious strife, and joyful shouts are thine. Come, mighty Goddess, and thy suppliant bless, with sparkling eyes, elated with success; may deeds illustrious thy protection claim, and find, led on by thee, immortal fame."
— Orphic Hymn 33 to Nike (trans. Taylor) (Greek hymns C3rd B.C. to 2nd A.D.)

Oh hey so this is the second school shooting where on-duty cops are explicitly not able to be good guys with guns because they cowered in fear from a teenager with a rifle
So fucking sick of this "just send in armed guards and resource officers" shit when it's repeatedly proven not to do a goddamn thing
whatever solution there is for school shootings, it's clearly not putting in a guy who makes $130,000 a year to wander around a high school with a gun.

We live in a society in which everything is sexualized, and yet heterosexuality is somehow decoupled from the sex part of it.
Being straight is so ubiquitous, it’s somehow not thought of as a sexual thing most of the time. I think it has something to do with conflating sex and love, which is a whole other barrel of monkeys. But I think this explains so many homophobes and exclusionists’ views:
That simply being gay is seen as being openly sexual, even when the person in question is just kissing or holding hands with their partner, or even just mentioning their orientation
That an asexual person mentioning that they are asexual is “dragging people into their sex life”
Meanwhile, a straight person mentioning that they are straight, talking about their partner, and being openly affectionate in public with them is not seen as being unnecessarily sexual or corrupting the children because that’s just love
Related, that assigning children as heterosexual and joking about it is normal (onesies with “ladies man” and such on them)

I think some people are confused by Agrippa’s conception of the division between the mind and the soul.
Basically, Agrippa conceives of the stars as the divine engine that drives the world. If the world is a vast clock, the stars are the gears that make it all tick. If clockwork is pure mathematics instantiated in physical objects, which tell the time the stars are the divine will manifested as these celestial bodies which create the world.
Agrippa sees the soul as the pure forces that make up you, its the thing you refer to when you say “you.“
He sees the soul as the raw sensory data that gets fed to the soul. The mind is the medium through which the physical world must pass to reach the soul.

if a hand kiss isn’t done with either reverent trembling and closed eyes or with a certain slow sensuality and direct ‘fuck me’ eye contact, you are wasting my time and everyone else’s

You truly never forget a genuinely kind hearted teacher. When I was in 4th grade my mom went into deep depression for a while and basically had no energy to do my hair anymore aside from brushing it and since it was really long it’d be a knotted mess by the end of the day and my teacher took note and one day asked if I’d like for her to start doing my hair every morning and I happily agreed. From then on while all my classmates had breakfast I’d go into class early and she’d do my hair any way I wanted. She even took a curling iron to curl it for me and got me the prettiest butterfly shaped hair clips because she knew I loved butterflies. Mrs Templeton I love you and still think about you 14 years later…
