I don't know what brought you here, but I'm just glad you came. Prepare for mostly re-blogs of stuff I like or identify with.
Genderfluid, so She/He/They, whatever floats your boat.

Whenever I take a long car ride I end up exhausted afterwards, and I’m always like “why am I so tired? I was just sitting around doing nothing all day.”
But the answer, it turns out, is I was doing something. Riding in a car jars your body in many directions and requires constant microadjustments of your muscles just to stay in place and hold your normal posture. Because you’re inside the car, inside the situation, it’s easy not to notice all the extra work you’re doing just to maintain the status quo.
There’s all sorts of type of work that we think of as “free” that require spending energy: concentrating, making decisions, managing anxiety, maintaining hypervigilance in an unfriendly environment, dealing with stereotype threat, processing a lot of sensory input, repairing skin cells damaged sun exposure, trying to stay warm in a cold room.
The next time you think you’re tired from “nothing”, consider instead that you’re probably in situation where you’re doing a lot of unnoticed extra work just to stay in place.

antiabortion fuckers: i’m pro-life! i just want to maximize life, i want to save kids! that’s why i support the supreme court striking down roe v. wade.
reality:
These fuckers kill more kids with their violent ideology than anything else. be honest. we all know it.
antiabortion people want these young girls dead. they literally believe it is retribution for them daring to put their health first.
AND STILL THEY HAVE THE AUDACITY TO CALL THEMSELVES PRO LIFE??? WHAT A FUCKING JOKE.
