It’s Sad How Much Of What Is Taught In School Is Useless To Over 99% Of The Population.

The thing that gets me about the "Dude" discourse is that it feels like a simple question of respect?

I don't like getting called dude or bro. Most transfems I know don't like getting called dude or bro.

It doesn't really matter if it's intended to be used in a gender neutral way, cause that's often not the effect that it is having.

And not calling someone dude or bro or anything like that is super easy.

And if you mess up, you can just say "my bad" and move on.

i saw the tv glow said to come out you have to kill a part of yourself, the version of yourself you've created to protect yourself, the imaginary vision of yourself that was fed to you

do you guys think Karl Marx would've liked Thrift Shop by Macklemore and Ryan Lewis because it promotes waste reduction and the subversion of both capitalism generally and brand commodification¹ specifically through second hand buying or do you think he would not like it because it still promotes consumption as an activity especially of items one does not actually need.² or do you think he'd like it cause it's a banger³

Reblog if you’re a transfem who is shy and you fear abandonment, even when you know that your friends are amazing and would never leave you.

Or if you like pizza.

That feeling when your nephew calls you gay because you are wearing maroon.

*hikes up my pant leg and points to a jagged scar* you see that? heh...yeah...that's from a gnome bite. it got really badly infected because the gnome was in a sugar rush. scary stuff...but i made it out *flexes my bicep* Ladies,

googling shit like "why do i feel bad after hanging out with my friends" and all of the answers are either "you need better friends" (i don't; my friends are wonderful) or "your social battery is drained, you need to rest and regain your energy levels" (i don't; i've got tons of energy, it's just manifesting as over-the-top neurotic mania). why is this even happening. it's like some stupid toll i have to pay as a punishment for enjoying myself too much
