i miss when DID was treated as a disorder and mental health issue instead of an identity label or something
Well, many mental health issues are hard to empirically measure on an individual scale and therefore identity labels, it isn’t alone in that regard at least.
Also, the doctor’s recommendation for anything considered a disorder will always be curing it, if someone is one of those who don’t like that idea when it comes to DID… then embracing a different view of what it is may be preferable.

“No one can love you until you love yourself” is like the worst possible way of articulating “if you don’t respect and value yourself, it’s very easy to become attracted to people who don’t treat you right and then justify their mistreatment, so be careful.”
so THAT’S what it’s supposed to mean. that actually makes sense.

im sure theres a word denoting the divide btwn what you believe as a citizen of civic society and what you believe as an animal with anger synapses. as a civic citizen i do not believe in the death penalty nor do i think anyone deserves to die for being stupid on twitter. as an ape,
I feel like making this distinction would also help with venting. “I acknowledge my feelings are irrational and primitive, and would never wish death on another human being. That being said, the asshole who slammed a door in my face deserves to be eaten alive by ants.”
They didn’t just cut out the parts with the oat milk, they skillfully edited over all the god-damn branding and replaced the audio.
But what I still find most hilarious about this whole commercial is the fact that everything they show in this solar punk world seems to be made with sustainable, zero waste and reusable materials.
Everything EXCEPT THE FUCKING CHOBANI BRANDED STUFF! The only plastic you see in this whole commercial is all the straight to the landfill packaging made by the very corporation that tries to sell how sustainable and “green” they are. Unintentional self satire at its finest.
They couldn’t even show their yogurt and milk in (basically infinitely reusable) glass containers because they pretty much only sell their shit in plastic
It is such a perfect example of the true face of “green” capitalism, it’s hilarious.
The punk in this solarpunk comes from cutting the corporation out of the picture
ALSO
Another really interesting thing about this edit is that they changed the label on the side of the apple-picking machine.
From “donations” to “commons”. It’s a subtle change, but it makes a huge difference in the world-building of the video. The former implies that this big orchard belongs to an owner and that they’re donating the fruits to “the less fortunate” (and, by extension, that poverty is still a thing); the latter implies that the orchard belongs to everyone and that the fruits are free to take in the spirit of solidarity.
Waffle To The Left brought out the potential in this gorgeous video and made it an actual solarpunk utopia — without brands and without corporate pandering, complete with true common ownership over land and resources.
I’m not making a funny meme post, cops are evil and exist to oppress and terrorize minorities but specifically black people. the good cops who exist either quit or get fired. cops are inherently evil.
I can’t wait for liberals who are just centrists with blue paint and other bad faith actors to try to argue with me about my wording here and the decision to call them “evil”
the idea of a cop and their history is inherently evil and if you want to die on a hill of arguing with a black queer person whose family faced police brutality and racial profiling go ahead but I don’t give a shit about your opinion.
“Oh but what about the ones who are called to help mental health crisises-” Mental health professionals exist, need years more training than cops, and won’t shoot you for being depressed. “What about when your house gets broken into or I get mugged or assaulted-” At best they write a report that might get dealt with later, at worst they come in guns blazing and hurt the people who were actually affected. When my friends have been assaulted, the cops just wrote a report (and were awful to those friends the whole time!) and it was the detectives and courts who actually did anything about it. “What about-”OP is right. Sit down and listen.
Do some research and unlearn your biases and help the people who are affected. It takes time and effort but for the love of all things good, learn it. I know I’m not perfect but I still gotta fucking listen to the groups who are being affected (especially POC) and take the initiative to learn how to be helpful.
THANK YOU!!!!!!!!!!!
PLEASE PLEASEEEEE
DO NOT CALL THE COPS ON MENTALLY ILL PEOPLE, ESPECIALLY IF THEY ARE POC OR QUEER MINORITIES
cops are not trained to deescalate situations but instead will further stress out or traumatize the victim in the situation. or in most cases murder them. cops are not here to protect you or your friends or any other marginalized group of people. they are here to make your lives MISERABLE and collect their paycheck. deprogram the copaganada from your brain.
the action this person took is bad because it’s directly harmful and exploits and leverages their social capital “also they’re cringe” not what I said “adults who like cartoons are always shitty” no they aren’t “their artistic tastes reflect their bad morals” I don’t believe that is the case “typical tenderqueer” I honestly just think you’re being homophobic “mid 30s polyamorous neurospicy kinky asexual picrew icon fanfic writer” do you even care about the bad thing they did or are you just using this as an excuse to make fun of people you don’t like

Cats and small kids are curious about what you’re doing in much of the same way. Sometimes when you seem to be up to something, they want to see what it is. If you try to keep a cat from sniffing something to find out what it is, they’ll keep insisting, louder and louder, “let me sniff, let me sniff,LET ME SNIFF, LET ME SNIFF!!” until you do.
And then they sniff at it for two seconds and go “oh, oooh. Now I get it. Don’t care” and wander off. But the demand to know will remain for as long as the thing is kept from them.
This one time when I was in nursing school, I had a training period in a kindergarten. One day I was chatting with one of the workers, telling her about this one time when I was in Kentucky due to my boyfriend at the time living there, and I saw this huge locally native spider-
And then I got interrupted by this one specific kid - a four-year-old boy who had taken a liking to me, sharp as hell and never missed a single thing. Looking at me with a deeply baffled, wide-eyed frown that kids that age do when Shit Does Not Add Up, he asked me: Boyfriend? If you’re a boy, why did you have a boyfriend?
Not sure what else to say, I just shrugged and said that it happens sometimes, sometimes men fall in love with men or women fall in love with women. And I could practically observe in real time as his confusion disappeared in a blink, as this previously completely unfathomable piece of information entered his brain, was swiftly processed, and instantly filed into “boring grownup shit that I don’t care about”. He only had one follow-up question:
first you have to remember that the first disco ball was painstakingly put together by hand from nothing but an idea and lots of intricately cut glass and bandaids and then you have to think about the experience of being under a disco ball for the very first time, bathed in reflections of an era that has not yet come to past, and finally you end up wondering what else there is around you that has yet to be unearthed by something with so much as a silly name
I remembered this post a few nights ago while I was out and looking up at this massive disco ball and I needed to find it but I couldn’t so I just googled disco ball and stood there in the middle of the concert floor reading the disco ball Wikipedia entry. anyway did you know that the disco ball is German in origin.
best part of running games of jackbox for random library teens was definitely all the times when jackbox would prompt them to be vulgar and i would be like i hope everyone can really impress me with how clever and not obvious their jokes are and this completely worked on them they were like i must find a joke even better than cum. but is it possible…? i must try. for Her. a woman who i just met who works at the library
