Go Look At Your Own Reflection In A Mirror Till You Drop Dead From Your Own Self Importance, Because

I was high off of the lack of sleep, I don't do any drugs as advised by the adults...

An On Duty Female Resident Doctor of Chest Medicine from R.G Kar Medical College, West Bengal was murdered in Hospital’s Seminar Room. She was on a 36 hours duty Did dinner at 2am with her juniors and went to Sit in Seminar room to study. But in the morning her body was found in a half naked condition.

next morning, the authorities tried to brush it off as a suicide. But when the truth couldn’t be contained, the post-mortem report clearly revealed rape and murder. The college principal resigned but was then appointed as principal in another college.

why the authority consistently shields criminals from accountability. What kind of governance is this?

The common man is suffering. Misogyny still permeates every area of our lives. We frequently hear news of rape and murder, yet the government doesn’t take action until there’s a national outcry.

What kind of independence are we going to celebrate this 15th of August?

Girls are so fucking hot thank god im gay

Still learning...

When I was in ninth grade I wanted to challenge what I saw as a very stupid dress code policy (not being allowed to wear spikes regardless of the size or sharpness of the spikes). My dad said to me, “What is your objective?”

He said it over and over. I contemplated that. I wanted to change an unfair dress code. What did I stand to gain? What did I stand to lose? If what I really wanted was to change the dress code, what would be my most effective potential approach? (He also gave me Discourses on the Fall of Rome by Titus Livius, Machiavelli’s magnum opus. Of course he’d already given me The Prince, Five Rings, and The Art of War.)

I ultimately printed out that phrase, coated it in Mod Podge, and clipped it to my bathroom mirror so I would look at it and think about it every day.

What is your objective?

Forget about how you feel. Ask yourself, what do you want to see happen? And then ask, how can you make it happen? Who needs to agree with you? Who has the power to implement this change? What are the points where you have leverage over them? If you use that leverage now, will you impair your ability to use it in the future? Getting what you want is about effectiveness. It is not about being an alpha or a sigma or whatever other bullshit the men’s right whiners are on about now. You won’t find any MRA talking points in Musashi, because they are not relevant.

I had no clear leverage on the dress code issue. My parents were not on the PTA; neither were any of my friend’s parents who liked me. The teachers did not care about this. Ultimately I just wore what I wanted, my patent leather collar from Hot Topic with large but flattened spikes, and I had guessed correctly—the teachers also did not care enough to discipline me.

I often see people on tumblr, mostly the very young, flail around in discourse. They don’t have an objective. They don’t know what they want to achieve, and they have never thought about strategizing and interpersonal effectiveness. No one can get everything they want by being an asshole. You must be able to work with other people, and that includes smiling when you hate them.

Read Machiavelli. Start with The Prince, but then move on to Discourses. Read Musashi’s Five Rings. Read The Art of War. They’re classics for a reason. They can’t cover all situations, but they can do more for how you think about strategizing than anything you’re getting in middle school and high school curricula.

Don’t vote third party unless you can tell me not only what your objective is but also why this action stands a meaningful chance of accomplishing it. Otherwise, back up and approach your strategy from a new angle. I don’t care how angry you are with Biden right now. He knows about it, and he is both trying to do something and not doing enough. I care about what will happen to millions of people if we have another Trump presidency. Look up Ross Perot, and learn from our past. Find your objective. If it is to stop the genocide in Palestine now, call your elected representatives now. They don’t care about emails; they care about phone calls, because they live in the past. I know this because I shadowed a lobbyist, because knowing how power works is critical to using it.

How do you think I have gotten two clinics to start including gender care in their planning?

Start small. Chip away. Keep working. Find your leverage; figure out how and when to effectively use it. Choose your battles, so that you can concentrate on the battle at hand instead of wasting your resources in many directions. Learn from the accumulated wisdom of people who spent their lives learning by doing, by making mistakes, by watching the mistakes of their enemies.

Don’t be a dickhead. Be smarter than I was at 14. Ask yourself: what is your objective?

Your poets? Dead. Your history? Secret. Your darlings? Killed. You? Probably not straight

Oh my god I have somehow managed to finish 7 lessons in one day, my brain is truly braining today....

I feel like God and I could probably do anything if I can do this.....

So that's 7 done out of 52, 45 more lessons to go....I'm so not ready for this, and my first exam is in a week...

i want to be a sweet and friendly girl but there’s all this anxiety. and the horrors

Maybe your home feels like your home, because in there you have a place that you can comfortably shit in.

Still can't (and will never) get over the fact that Ever After High was cancelled because of Disney descendants, and that is why I refuse to watch those movies 😭😭😭😭
