[carrickbender]

Sunday 7-

I had 2 drs appointments on Friday, one of which was a CT that was supposed to help figure out why I have so much pain in my right testicle(TMI). It saw nothing, so now we get to keep guessing. Boss told me to "take weekend off", but was doing the morning orders/teams call every day between 5-7, trying to fix stuff and do reconciliations. Glad they trust me with this, but wanna give a 'high five' to my imposter syndrome telling me im gonna get fired any day.

- had to take Henry to urgent care on Saturday, and it turns out he has the start of pneumonia. Wanna give a big shout out to the ARNP who told me she really thought he should just 'ride it out' after 10 days of awful coughing and that their kids 'were still in it after a month'. Yeah, the PA said there was no way he wasn't leaving without antibiotics. Made me feel like an asshole parent... he's on day 2, and already more of himself.

- I went back up there today for me, and I have pretty severe bronchitis. He put me on a different antibiotic, more steroids, refilled my inhaler, and actually listened to me. I mean, I appreciated his care and actual concern. Fun situation: while I was there, a tree fell across the powerlines and tripped off most of town, so they had to go to back-up generators. There was a hall full of people, in a brown out, that the staff were managing like pros. Seriously, we are lucky to have that place.

-after today, I have 4 payments left on my car. 4. I think we will wait till June, and then it's 4 door vehicle time. The lunabug is getting taller, and we want to go see my dad/stepmom in Eastern Wa in something that has space. Everybody and their dog has sent me one of those damn, "interested in a new car loan? It's OK to check your rate, and won't hurt your credit" messages and as soon as my credit union chimes in, I'm sure we'll have something to talk about.

- speaking of something to not talk about, I learned a new term and joined a subredit today called 'dead bedrooms', and yeah, checks out completely. I don't have a therapist yet, so it's not a bad sorce of info or me trying to figure out what I have messed up(apparently, yet again).

- so I had to stop at Walmart(yay for small business destruction by a corporate giant!) for meds/a few groceries and this dingus in an f250 with a WA st license plate celebrating wrestling decided he needed to back into a compact space that was in front of me. He almost hit the first car on the way in(who had to stop and back up), but then he literally backed his 'not a farm truck but a penis extension' into the compact space in front of me, and thanks to me backing up knowing he would have been sticking out if I didn't, he took 3 feet of my spot and his hitch was literally 4 inches from hitting my car. In my space. And that entitled piece of shit didn't even look to see how close he was, he just walked away like he was the king of backing up. Look, I have no problem with wrestlers, but the only one who matters in my life is John Irving, and I think he would have been sensitive enough not to be a shit bird like that! (Part 1 of 2 rant)

- I wanted to share a thought or 2 about something I've seen going about on here for a little bit, because I think i need to say avfew things:

I love that I have so many people I follow here who take stances for the poor, marginalized, POC, and other underrepresented communities-not just in a perfunctory way of saying 'I support you'; but quite a few of you are actually involved in helping bring about change and strengthening communities by being unselfish hands that help heal hearts- you inspire me to be a better person, really. As a person of faith, I see you doing the work that many faith leaders of old spoke of when they talked of when they said, "serve as you have been served, and love as you have been loved"- and seeing that faith in action, it has made me read more about liberation theology and revisit the works of the Rt Rev Bishop Desmond Tutu, Dietrich Bonhoffer, and Dr Martin Luther King jr(and of the later, 'Why I oppose the war in Vietnam' is just as relevant now as it was then). I thank you all for this inspiration and work.

But what I have really come to realize about myself is that I am a person of privilege. I am a white CISmale, straight, accessed a good education at a young age, had a huge extended family that helped raise me when my mom had me at 17, have never had to worry about my gender causing me to be looked at differently, have a good job(for now), have access to clean water, don't live in a food desert, and save for the fact that I understood discrimination at a very young age thanks to my last name, I know that I have lived a mostly privileged life.

But there is one privilege I will never take for granted, and that's voting. And yes, I don't always vote my conscience because at heart, I am a democratic Socialist. But I always vote in my local and state house election because it is in places like your local school board or your city council where you can stop the spread of groups like 'Moms for Liberty' or any of the other neo-fascist organizations that seek to change education or change for the worse how cities deal with their population experiencing homelessness. If I stay home from these elections, I feel like I'm spitting on my great grandmother's grave(whose name I found on the voting roll of the first year that women could vote in Basin, Montana). I feel like I'm not being a good parent or a community member for sticking up for my sons right(or other kids rights) to read books in the school library that have a rainbow(let alone letting kids see representation for non-traditional families that are just the same as everybody else!). So please, if you're feeling crappy about the election, this right here is the biggest way to affect change if you don't know where to start or affirm.there is something you can do to really make a difference. Don't see enough representation of POC on your city council, especially in multi-ethnic communities? Hear a trans voice that would make for a great representative for all people? Fill in those boxes, act locally, and get those folks elected! It works if you work it!

I hear a lot of voices talking about Joe Biden these days, and I feel numb and angry about a lot of things that have been done in our names too: I hate HATE what is happening in Gaza(PBUT); I hate our support of Saudi Arabia and the proxy war in Yemen; Our jaunts in Zaire and Jordan; I hate that we are no closer to universal Healthcare, but I understand that that road and others lead through a Republican congress. I love that child poverty is declining, but programmes that were designed to make this a reality are sunsetting. We have a barbaric and truly archaic policy on immigration, and every time(that's not hyperbole, either), every goddamn time a good bill has been proposed to deal with the issue, the bill has been met by the xenophobic forces on the right and their deep pockets fueling the media and it is destroyed out of fear. And let's not forget student debt forgiveness, the continued dismantling of public education by states like Texas and Florida, Our goal of dismantling of the prison industrial complex, the protection of reproductive healthcare, and the dire need for nationwide police reform.

Yes, our laundry list is long, but it is full of necessary things that need to change or be codified in order for a great change to happen for generations and the continuatonof this great experiment called the U.S.A.

And for all of this and more, I ask: where are the leaders of our generation on this? Where are the ghosts of John Lewis, of Paul Wellstone, and of Shirley Chisholm? Thankfully, our leaders and the ghostsbof their forebearers are there- they are doing their best, and thankfully we(those of us on the progressive side) are represented by POC women who will go to the mat for these issues and more, being inspired by those who came before them. But the more that I think about it, it's time that we offer an ultimatum: we'll give you our voting block, Joe. We'll help bring along the majority of the 9 million new voters who are coming of age this year, so you will have a supermajority with which you can put forth truly transformative legislation. Sure, you'll get us- for now. But if it's businesses as usual, if we are not knocking over the tables of the money changers, and if we are not investing more in programmes of social uplift than we are for the military industrial complex, then we strike. Not in 2028, as one of my absolute favourite people on here suggest, but in 2026, in early summer. Because it is people like me, those of us who have know privilege and continue to know it, who are finally waking up to the truth that we need to do the work. We need to do the heavy lifting. I'm willing to make that offer, and I hope I'm not alone, because there either needs to be a change in the way our political system operates, or we walk away and start our own political entity. I hope I'm not alone in the way I feel, and I hope that we can all make the proposition. We have the leaders, we have the people, now it's about courage. It's time.

But for today, if you can pull the lever for democrats nationally, I totally get it. But consider what I said about voting locally, and in local races and elect people who represent your values. It matters.

- ok, rant over: if you made it this far, know that I love you all and I hope this week brings good things for you. Remember what Pete Seeger always said: "Take it easy, but take it". Much love yall!

Shit posting, but I swear y’all are worst then Reddit and Twitter. Y’all just really are making random crap up.

Y’all use anti-fem and anti-queer talking points to back up random crap, and then claim y’all are inclusive feminist and pro-queer. Please stop. The oppressor cannot be the oppressed.

People can’t be oppressed for these reasons alone:

White people can’t be oppressed. Billionaires can’t be oppressed. Men cannot be oppressed. Cis people cannot be oppressed. Heterosexual people cannot be oppressed. Able-bodied people cannot be oppressed. Neurotypical people can’t be oppressed.

They can be oppressed for other reasons if they fall into another category, but are not oppressed by any of the categories above. I’m so tired of this.

REMINDER THAT FELLOW GROUPS DONT HAVE POWER OVER THEIR EXACT COUNTERPARTS: non-men, poor/middle class, people of color, transgender people, queer people, disabled, or neurodivergent people

I might as well go into one of those subreddits that think every minority is at fault at this point.

#queer feminism #disabled #poc safe #women #Misandry doesn’t exist #heterophobia doesn’t exist #cis people do not face oppression #reverse racism doesn’t exist #able bodied people are not oppressed #poor/middle class literally has no power #neurotypical people too #how is this even a debate at this point #not to mention tik tok #go outside #chronically online

[greelin]

consider how deranged you sound when you say shit like “that’s what you get when you live in the south lol”

#like. gay people live here. transgender people live here. poc live here. #this is not just Cishet Gun Loving White Republican land #it should be safe here for lgbt people. poc. people who just want fucking access to care. LOL

to celebrate lesbian visibility week, all lesbians have legal immunity and thus are allowed to, and encouraged to, freely kill every man and lesbophobe who dares open their steaming gob to spew lesbophobic bullshit inside and outside the wider community, and especially around our own.

stay safe, protect each other, and have fun out there ❤️🧡🤍🩷💖

i am just going to say it. baeddelism is white woman feminism for white trans women. it is v clear that ppl understand that queerness does not absolve their whiteness until it’s white trans women.

the number of trans woc who pull this shit is so low. i have met some but the vast majority of this community is white and i can’t imagine why.

ur not any different from any other white person trying to claim which part of their identity makes them the most oppressed on the earth. we see it with white neurodivergent ppl. we see it with white disabled ppl. we see it with white transmascs! white transfems are still white and understand feminism through a white lens like any other white woman does.

#transandrophobia #transmasc safe #i don’t want to see any white ppl argue w me #trans poc are permitted to give their opinions

[mergaliscious]

it's interesting how every trait that ppl use to demonize narcissists (except for the ridiculous ones to demonize that are actually harmless) is also very prevalent among the general population, especially among untraumatized and privileged individuals

like yeah, *some* narcissists are assholes, but the traits that make them assholes are extremely common among people who don't have NPD and were simply never told they have to care about other people

it's like neurotypicals/egotypicals will accept this sort of behavior *unless* it was developed as a coping mechanism. Like it's only bad if it's a symptom of mental illness. And fuck that.

#Oh you think you're better than others bc your parents told you being white makes you superior? #Well let's give you some education and space to learn and shame POC for not wanting to be around you! #Oh you think you're better than others because you've experienced horrific abuse and had to convince yourself you're special in order to... #Survive? Wow you must be a terrible person! /s #Idk if it's a good idea to tag this as narc safe #Bc while I am saying these arguments are bad I am still talking abt them #Also ftr the traits I mention in the parentheses are like... Being obsessed with ones reflection #I've seen that used to demonize narcissists but like who does it harm???

For POC littles🍀

by puppy-bites

Hi kiddo,

I know it gets lonely sometimes not seeing others that look like you in the agere communities. But I’m so glad you are here and I’m so proud of you for expressing yourself. Regardless of people who say “You shouldn’t be doing this.” Or “POC’s don’t do stuff like this.” You have a right to do things that bring you joy. I see you and you’re doing amazing! You deserve to regress as much as anyone else you are more than other people’s opinions!

Stay safe and I love you!💗

Looking at a lot of Loustat shippers and how they view/talk about Louis, is making me think of the BtVS fandom, the first fandom I joined when I was 16/17.

Anyway, a lot of the Spuffy shippers were out there calling Buffy derogatory names, saying SHE was the actual abusive one in the relationship, writing the most vile essays/fanfiction about her needing to be brought down a peg and admit she was wrong and Spike was right, saying the show was boring without Spike, despite Buffy being the main character, could not talk about Buffy as a character separate from Spike, propping up James's acting skills over Sarah's, made it sound like Spike was a better parent to Dawn than Buffy was (?), saying that the other men she was in romantic relationships with were much more abusive than Spike, excusing Spike for basically all of his actions and woobifying him because of his trauma....

and then you'd have the more critical Spuffy/non-Spuffy shippers (mainly woc) pointing out the blatant misogyny and victim-blaming in this way of thinking, pointing out how Spike represents some of the worst aspects of racism and the patriarchy, both textually and subtextually, even providing scholarly articles and literature to back up their claims, and asking why do you even ship Spuffy if you hate Buffy? Which of course received extreme backlash and harassment from people racing to defend Spike themselves, saying, no of course they didn't hate Buffy, but Spike is more complex than you're making him sound, and no he's not a racist or hates women, he's actually a feminist and a punk/anarchist and doesn't kill based on race, you're just a vile sjw and an anti who loves ruining everyone else's fun.

Anyway. Why do you even ship Loustat if you hate Louis?

#lol they also called spike the woman in the relationship too if i remember correctly #louis receives the same treatment as a woman does...both in fandom and in the show much to think about #the woobification of evil blonde men and the vilification of their women pipeline #with that villification of louis even more amplified because he's now a poc! #buffy summers #louis de pointe du lac #btvs discourse #buffy the vampire slayer #iwtv discourse #interview with the vampire #fandom racism #anti lestat de lioncourt #anti spike #to be safe #and yes...i was a spuffy shipper 😭luckily with some critical thinking skills #but yeah..louis and buffy apparently are boring and bad and are soooo hopeless without their men and you can't talk about them #without bringing up their men up like idk maybe you don't like them as much as you think you do!!!

[byler-alarmist]

What scares me most about Byler endgame is the reality of it likely coming out long after the US presidential election 2024.

#not to be us-centric #but it really does affect the world #like if we think things are bad now #i'm afraid 2025 may find us living in even scarier times #young cis white queers i'm talking to you - don't get too comfortable in this heartstopper era #don't make the grave mistake of thinking we have come so far and that things can only get better #as trans and poc queer ppl know we still have a lonnnng way to go #and even the rights you do have must be continually fought for #they can always be taken away #yes even in the 21st century #i fear we may be headed into darker times #sorry for doomposting #byler tumblr #please do whatever you need to feel safe #but just remember that we will all need to be a bit brave #and stand together #don't let infighting distract from solidarity #byler nation #stranger things #us politics #tw politics

whenever i say i hate dutch more than i do micah ppl r always thrown off by that but it's like. anything micah does, dutch does with this veneer of self righteousness. dutch is just as violent and bigoted but he hides it all under this false bravado.

and it's not even his betrayal to arthur and john, or the gang in general, it's the violent destruction he sews in his wake that he doesn't seem to care about - or even notice - that makes me hate him so much.

of course, he's also wildly more interesting to me than micah is. his rich history with characters i do love and care about (like arthur, john and hosea) and the respect they have for him perplex me. but he's not really any better than micah. he's just a little better at not looking and sounding so overtly evil.

#but this man exacerbates a whole genocide to avoid personal accountability #he infiltrates a situation he's being told is sensitive #that he knows will have catastrophic fallout #and does it anyway #all while bolstering himself as some saviour #he totes his gang as a safe haven for POC but lets in people like micah or bill #he sends lenny out on jobs with micah like that's not uncomfortable at the least and dangerous at the most #he assaults and murders women #he just looks and sounds nice #and most of this he does as early as before the game even begins #i am a dutch anti #i am also very intrigued by him #dutch van der linde #thinky

I think Jeremy as the father of Bonnie’s children is the best option for canon in Legacies they made him guest star with barely any mentions of Bonnie.

Jeremy was the worst boyfriend Bonnie had. She was practically his parent with how often she had to look after his wellbeing. Bonnie shouldn't have to mother the father of her children. Jeremy didn't even do anything to make up for the emotional abuse of cheating-season5. That's why Bonnie still carries the weight of his infidelity around even when they get back together. Tbh, a big reason why I’m anti-Beremy outside of cheating is that it is mainly about Elena not necessarily Bonnie and Jeremy. A lot their moments are Elena-centered discussions. Bonnie deserves far better and so does the Bennett line.

JP mentioning how Bonnie’s permanent death was supposed to be for s5 on Twitter. How she said Kat “begged” for her job mixed with the discrediting and ignoring the Bennett’s in TO/LGCs. Bonnie was never going to get anything after 2017. She couldn’t wait to be free of Bonnie. She hoped Kat would give up and quit the way Trevino did.

LGCS writers bluntly said Bonnie wasn’t an important character for their musical but we all know what that double entendre meant. Bonnie’s not important at all once Elena/Caroline got their happy endings and families. We don’t even have the luxury of seeing Bonnie at peace in the finale scene or reconnecting with her family after all those years. The only time we see multiple Bennett’s at once is when they’re saving the day.

Bonnie barely gets mentioned at all. Bonnie not ending up with Jeremy is truly a miracle considering how much JP hated Bonnie stans and Bonnie herself. There’s ZERO respect to Bonnie given how much Bennett blood the Salvatore Boarding School has and the ascendant in order to send children into prison worlds. Plecverse didn’t even respect the POC characters they had on LGCs. Bonnie wouldn’t have been the exception.

Thank you for the ask! 💜💜💜

#JP doesn’t know how to mention or talk abt Bonnie without saying something derogatory. #in her Entertainment Weekly vids she says very little on Bonnie and even when she did she attempted to put the blame on Kevin Williamson #that the Bonnie problem was bc she was a witch and a loophole so they had to hinder that loophole. #those POC actors was chosen for LGCS to clear up those arguments about race and didn’t do right by them either imo. #i do think after Kat’s mistreatment blew up again they tried to play it safe in how she treated them. #used to make jokes abt how much Bonnie was locked away in that basement of the school bc ain’t no way in hell #bonnie bennett #kat graham #anti Julie Plec #anti the vampire diaries #anti tvd #dria responds #anti beremy
