Sometimes i think about my relationship with romance and romantic relationships
Like, the mere idea of. Commiting to such responsibility of providing to another being love and care and attention and all of that it's so...scary, and yet it seems so nice and beautiful
From my online social life, I would see couples being happy with each other and doing like, couple things and being like "holy shit that's awesome and sweet" and I'll have hearts spinning around my head because of how lovely the idea is but i will also fear it so so badly because holy shit imagine doing all that 😨😨
Then i have my irl side of things and it makes me think. A lot. About how horrible this shit can get
My parents are in a horrible relationship of which my dad can not for the love of him escape, my brothers are fucking horrible to their fiances and children and everyone is horrible to everyone and I'll just go "this place is a freakshow and i have zero respect for anyone here"
Romance feels so real and yet so, dreamy, so fanciful, so out of reach,
It makes me think of my current crush too, and it's like, huh
Romance is so wacky and that's silly, honestly

i feel like a lot of the 'i hate kids' crowd would be more tolerant if they understood that due to a kid's limited experience of the world that 4 hour flight might just be the longest they've ever had to sit still for or that trapped finger might literally be the most pain they've ever felt in their short life or they might not have ever seen a person with pink hair ever so of course they want to touch it or nobody's told them yet that they can't run around the museum and they only just learned cheetahs are the fastest animals so of course they want to put that to the test. how were they supposed to know etc etc.

really love dynamics that are like 'it honestly doesn't matter if you view them as romantic or platonic, the point is that they love each other. the type of love is inconsequential, all that matters is that it's there'. gotta be one of my favorite genders.

my prof just explained on the syllabus that he’s included more points in the class than we needed to pass, so we could skip up like?? 20 small assignments/quizzes/participation!! and still get a very high grade!!
the idea was that we could focus on assignments that played to our strengths - only do the participation stuff if we like to talk out loud - only do the quizzes/readings if we want to do the class remotely - only do online discussions if we like to talk and share opinions but struggle with anxiety in class ect.
and that’s cool enough but then he pulled up DnD character sheets with drawings he’d done of these hypothetical student player classes and how our various accessibility needs could be gamified to ‘max out’ different aspects of the class to get high grades and like!!!!!
hell yeah!!!! let’s treat accessibility in higher education not just as a necessity but as the fun, engaging, and creative aspect of learning that it is!!! I love this!!
EDIT: For proper credit or further questions about his system please find my professor on twitter @/kurtishanlon

Sometimes I wish we would start calling out the performative radicalism on this site for the poser bullshit it is. "Remember, it's always morally correct to kill a cop!" "Don't forget to firebomb your local government office!" "Wow, it sure would be a shame if these instructions on how to make a molotov cocktail got spread around!"
Okay. But you're not killing cops or firebombing government offices. You are posting on a dying microblogging website to a carefully-curated echo chamber that has radicalized itself into thinking that taking the absolute most extreme position on any subject is praxis but that anyone discussing the most practical way to effect actual change is your sworn enemy. You do not have the street cred OR the activist cred to be talking about killing cops, babe.
