Correct!

If someone commits and act of violence, do I hope they get help and are able to find peace? Yes, I do. Am I required to start supporting them just because they've done so? No, I'm not.

Two things can be true -

1) All people, including violent men, deserve empathy

2) It is not necessarily our job to provide that empathy

A trained mental health professional can and should provide care for someone who has perpetrated violence, but that doesn't mean people in general have to

Bathroom mirror picture of me (white lady with ashy brown hair in a ponytail) wearing heavy makeup and a form fitting red floral dress

Every once in a while I like to do hot girl shit

I FINALLY HAVE AN APPOINTMENT WITH A PRIMARY CARE DOCTOR AFTER BEING ON WAITLISTS FOR OVER A YEAR

Healthcare in my city SUCKS but I am both very happy and very nervous to be going to a new doctor

Baby fever is WILD because I feel like the closer I get to 30 the harder it is to NOT think about pregnancy and babies (as someone who is planning on having kids)

Like for the first time in my life I'm looking forward to my periods because at least I get a break from whatever the fuck is happening

I feel like I'm also losing mine, like I will always believe she's queer no matter what but it's getting less fun to theorize

Ooh I love the idea of a nightgown honestly

Where do people buy cute pajamas? Like, I wanna feel cute but also be comfortable. I need something that is in between lingerie and the old navy matching family pj sets 🤣

i think millennials gave Nickelback hate because we knew they’d be too strong otherwise

"sex doesn't belong in YA books"

Listen, I learned more about birth control, menstruation, and how to get and give consent to different acts from Tamora Pierce books than I did from my school. There's a huge difference between smut and showing teens what healthy sexuality is.

I do not have a sweet tooth, but I do have a cheese tooth

That is VERY interesting

But also with the new rumors of NYC being the spot, makes it easier to get that info if it happens

Couple of thoughts -

1) It seems weird, to me, that anyone, even the kind of person people drop everything for, would wait until 3 months before a wedding date to invite people

2) Marriage licenses are ✨public record✨ and in most states, have to be secured at least 3 days before the wedding date

I think I have been one of those very lucky people for whom a pap smear is genuinely just uncomfortable (I also had an IUD inserted with similar pain to my typical period pain)

But also agree that tattoos are NOT THAT BAD on the pain scale of most women/AFAB people

I definitely think tattoos hurt, it's just not THAT bad. I feel like it's way more about how long it goes on than about the location

Nothing reminds me how different everyone's bodies are more than seeing something like a "tattoo pain level chart"

Because my ankle was the worst, that's very true, but my calf was SO much worse than thighs or bicep areas, which are always noted as more painful than calves

Sure glad my husband isn't on the internet referring to my hobbies and possessions as "boner killers". Then again, he's got a personality, so he's got lots of hobby stuff everywhere too.

Every once in a while my abusive ex from high school/early college (I am 29 now) will watch my instagram story or view my linkedin profile and I draw a small amount of pleasure in knowing he is still too stupid to figure out how to do those things in a way where I can't see that he did

I know not everyone is a fan of The Handmaid's Tale so skip this one if you'd like

But the first episodes of The Testaments are SO good, the way they manage to portray every. single. solitary. man. as a fucking CREEP without a single word being spoken is both horrifying and so well done.

Men finding something "sexy" doesn't mean it's made for them! Men will literally put their d1ck into anything!

And also like, in general, if I post a pic in a swimsuit, someone's gonna find it sexy. That doesn't mean it was my goal! That's a very weird way to look at the world y'all!

I think people who are adamant about not being interested in therapy are people who absolutely know they are unhappy with their reality, but are deeply afraid of taking accountability for their own hand in shaping it

YES because insisting that all femme expressions of sexuality are performative is ridiculous

Sabrina's just leaving loaves of bread so she can can "deadass thought I made it obvious" whenever everything finally goes down

Apathy and ignorance are a problem, yes, but in a world where the news is CONSTANT and it's all available on a device you have within arms' reach at all times, sometimes you have to take a fucking break

It's okay to turn it off for a few days and just let yourself be a person

I would do anything Margaret Qualley told me to do and I truthfully think my husband would understand

House Tour is gay and anyone who says it's "for the male gaze" is homophobic

Okay so for all the crazy "dictionary definition" people

Dictionaries are DESCRIPTIVE, not PRESCRIPTIVE

They DESCRIBE language that is used in a language, which is why words are added so frequently

Language has been evolving as long as people have been using it

Honestly probably why they decided to say something because swifties would for sure ruin it if they thought there was any chance

This did make me double check that I ordered the signed copy, which I did, so go me I guess

The edible I just took hit SO fast, happy Friday night to me 😊
