if you have violent intrusive thoughts I love you. if you have sexual intrusive thoughts I love you. if you have bigoted intrusive thoughts I love you. you are not your thoughts and you are worthy of love and care and help and affection. you are not a monster you’re a person going through it and that’s okay
I respect neopronouns and even played a bit with them myself back in the day but I also think I need a pronunciation guide for some of them
You need to be prepared to answer the question “How do I pronounce that?” when you come up with your pronouns.
I’m not trying to discourage you from coming up with weird pronouns. Be yourself. Confuse the cis and whatnot. But like. Know how your own pronouns are pronounced if you want them used irl. I’ve come across people with neopronouns who had only ever used them online who didn’t have an answer when asked how you pronounce that. Don’t let this be you. Have an answer ready.
This is a good post and these tags are a great addition
The thing about Cottagecore is that is a fetishized aesthetic of country life, divorced from labor and idealized by a primarily urban audience with a backward looking ethos of tradition. They are not prepared for the stresses of a rural life: farming; harvesting; tapping pumpkins to ensure none of them have been replaced with flesh; losing out on income by having to use one of your pigs in a blood sacrifice to paint protective sigils over your doors and windows; checking cracks and chimneys for the flesh-vines of the Pumpkin Lord; having to decide, before the Growth is complete, whether that’s really your tradwife or an amassment of vines, leaves, and blood in the shape of your tradwife; ignoring their desperate pleas that “I’m me! No! No!” as you burn them alive, realizing too late you picked wrong; and the exploitative corporate nature of commercial farming in 2024. All seen through a deeply colonial lens, of course
When I made this post I did not expect it to be an effective test of which Tumblr users actually read a post fully before reblogging, and yet
me: man i wish dodos still existed so i could eat one
brain: there are many extant species of pigeons and doves still
me: hmmm is it morally right to eat a dove
brain: the morality of eating meat is not affected by the beast it originates. the idea that certain meats are “wrong” to eat is a societal expectation
me: okay what diseases do pigeons carry
brain: some but with proper preparation and with a disease-free specimen you will be okay
me: what is stopping me from eating a dove
brain: your cowardice. you fear social rejection and dread the idea of judgement. but, those who judge you are just as biased and imperfect as you are. you must accept that this is an inevitable part of life, but it should not hold you back. you are in charge of your own destiny
me: okay lala ^_^ *googles “dove resippy” for 4 hours and salivates so hard it floods my room and i drown*
just a reminder that flies rubbing their hands together =/= plotting a nasty scheme

FINALLY SOMEONE SAID IT!! I HATE THE STEREOTYPE THAT US RUBBING OUR HANDS TOGETHER MEANS WE ARE PLANNING SOMETHING DUBIOUS!!

^^ Boosting! I constantly get non-flies giving me death glares whenever I wash my hands in the restroom. Like, that’s what you’re supposed to do after going to the bathroom! Sorry for being hygienic I guess 🙄

Reasons why flies might be rubbing their hands together:
It’s chilly out and they’re trying to warm up
They just put hand sanitizer/lotion/hand cream on
They’re rolling a ball of clay together
What you should do if you see a fly rubbing their hands together:
Leave them alone! It’s none of your business
Hope this helped! :)

people also forget that hand-rubbing is a very common stim!! neurodivergent flies constantly get stigmatized for showing any traits of their neurodivergencies in public!! please don’t forget that!!

Can’t believe this guy is still at it, honestly. @staff@tumblr Please take action against fake fly troll accounts such as these ones!

🤣🤣🤣 Oh the excuses this fake is making, LOL! I haven’t been this entertained since the Bombylius major discourse last year!
🪰 compoundeyehaverFollow
why are you still arguing with the troll instead of just blocking
🪰 crane-fly-wivesFollow
Just think it’s entertaining to see the lack of logic that bounces around in the brains of these non-flies sometimes 🤷♀️ Every response this so called “I am a real fly, trust me” user has given me has just made me crack up and flap my wings together.

I am gonna rub my hands and plan more evil schemes involving you next

Of course a Grasshopper has the nerve to comment something insensitive on this post. Honestly, just mind your business 🙄

okayy

Hey, you can’t really preach for not discriminating against flies and then discriminate against a grasshopper, dude. Not cool.
🪰 crane-fly-wivesFollow
I think I certainty can, with my past experiences of Grasshoppers always finding the ways to say the most uneducated and baseless takes on my previous posts and discussions. Plus, after the Fly-Grasshopper War of 247 BC (in which my ancestors fought in, mind you) and the consequences that followed it, I think I am well within my rights. But go ahead, frame me as the bad guy here. 🤣
So, yeah, it is rather hypocritical for you to pull out these cards when grasshoppers have also been punished and gotten the short end of the stick throughout bug history.
🪰 crane-fly-wivesFollow
The implication that all flies are responsible for a few greedy politicians is quite comical, really. 🥱 Not to mention that many Grasshopper politicians in Bugland and Bugtopia have also had histories of introducing laws that have severely affected communities majorly made up of Flies. But sure, keep arguing with me about this, buddy. I got all day 🤣

Just because we aren’t seeing more posts about Palestine, doesn’t mean the genocide has stopped. Let’s keep Praying and speaking up for Gaza, Palestine.
While South Africa is truly creating history by bringing Israel to court to finally hold them accountable in war crimes, please do not forget that we still have to do the work for a truly free Palestine. Keep boycotting and keep pressuring your governments to help end the illegal occupation.
