fat women on tumblr dot gov: i think i deserve to live happily and not have ppl tell me i’m disgusting just for existing and making wild assumptions abt my health

the notes: let’s not forget skinny ppl matter too… they’re different problems but let’s not invalidate other women… sometimes i can’t find jeans that fit either… someone asked me if i was going to finish my burger once and i died

I've never noticed this before. I am definitely an asker, not a guesser. I can't even fathom the idea that someone would ask "what game are you playing?" and NOT expect you to answer the question that they literally asked you? It makes no sense to me

To my friends on the spectrum, let me explain to you an unspoken social rule that possibly nobody has ever explained to you before

If a neurotypical asks you, “What game are you playing?” they’re not asking you to describe the game.

They’re asking you if they can play too.

If a neurotypical asks you, “What are you watching?” they’re not asking you to explain the plot of the movie/tv show to them.

They’re asking if they can watch it with you.

.

When neurotypicals ask you “What are you doing?” 

What you think they’re asking: “Please explain to me what you are doing.” 

What they’re actually asking:  “Can I join you?”

Now here’s the really fucked up part. If you start explaining to them what you’re doing? They will interpret that as a rejection. 

What you think you’re saying: [the answer to their question]

What they think you’re saying: This is an elite and exclusive activity for a level 5 friend and you are a level 1 acquaintance. You are not qualified to join me because you don’t know all this stuff. Go away.

.

This is why neurotypicals think you’re being cold and antisocial.

IT’S ALL A HORRIBLE MISCOMMUNICATION.

One thing that seems to be a consistent trait in almost all reactionary ideologies is this idea that everything is “biological” or otherwise innate. It’s the easiest way to justify inequality and prevent people from trying to change the social order– just convince people that it’s a “natural” order and that it’s impossible to change, and that obeying that order is somehow moral, that adhering to the hierarchies laid out by the society you find yourself in is the most moral thing you could do.

Misogynists invoke it. White nationalists invoke it. Capitalists invoke it. Transmisogynists invoke it. You just start to see it everywhere. “It’s biology” means “I have a god given right to hurt you.”

some illustrations i’ve done recently 💫

The notorious Untitled (Peyote Vision) (1955).

By actress, poet, occultist, artist, and general crazy person (but in a good way), Marjorie Cameron (1922-1995).

In 1957, artist Wallace Berman used a reproduction of this drawing as part of his assemblage, Temple. The LAPD raided the exhibition and arrested Berman on obscenity charges.

y'all. I lost this vape 2 years ago, then I had an exterminator come and I found my vape on a table. I asked all my roommates and none of them found it, so the only explanation is that the exterminator found the vape and set it on the counter for me. WTF

why can’t people accept “the media is over-hyping coronavirus” and “coronavirus is concerning given the lack of knowledge surrounding it” are both true? like can I order some nuance

This is probably the most Gen Z headline I’ve ever read and I can’t get enough
