When arguing with a 15 minute city advocate, ask them “What happens if I get the opportunity of a lifetime…my dream job, 30 minutes away by car?” The mental gymnastics that ensue demonstrate how you just can’t plan and control something as complex as human society.

if you’re a bus driver you can smoke weed Friday night and test positive for the next month even if you’re stone cold sober for every shift. drug tests don’t reflect time of use and are therefore ✨useless✨
and that’s not saying don’t be sad about Betty white- but maybe y’all can understand that even at almost 100 years old it’s still emotional when people die and nobody is expendable
ICYDK current DoorDash discourse was explicitly made to mock a disabled person severe histamine intolerance via MCAS (which 1 in 6 people had pre-Covid, so a common chronic illness) so they can’t eat leftovers, because other disabilities prevent them from cooking every day
I just got kicked out of a mom group for saying my kid’s hygiene is a non negotiable priority for me, I am begging my fellow parents to bathe their children

no rude comments!! draxleigh has been crying blood from his eyes, should I take him in or should thieves oil directly on his eyeballs do the trick

I grew up in a ‘not math people’ house and dreaded/failed every single math class all through grade school, now my adult job is literally 100% math. I so wish I’d gotten a note like this when I was a kid

but he did all those bad things already sooo... only the good stuff takes time? it’s actually an extremely good thing to criticize our leaders and hold them accountable to do what we want them to do

if you are performing your job adequately during the hours you’re clocked in I don’t care if you’re doing heroin on your own time. if mitigating the damage often done by harder drugs is what you want to talk about, drug testing still isn’t the answer
40 year olds are really frothing at the mouth about how they’re the only generation who had nuclear war fears as kids as if I didn’t watch 9/11 happen on live tv and spend the rest of elementary school hearing about WMDs

I liked the part where he said living in our biggest and most diverse city wouldn’t make him feel as connected to the heart of the state 🥴🥴
i was young, healthy, in a committed relationship and *safe* when I got pregnant. if ONE of those factors was different? Who knows what I would have needed to do. my kid was a fucking blessing and every kid on the planet deserves to feel the love that he has
i love when people are like ‘well I just don’t like that some women use abortion as birth control’ like man that is some REAL expensive, invasive and inconvenient birth control so my guess is you’ve never actually heard of that happening

I'm originally from Europe. I honestly can't remember the last time I drank a glass of water. Im fascinated by America's obsession with hydration.
today is the day I accidentally got my 70 year old mother so stoned that she fell asleep and forgot to come over and my stepdad had to text me that she was fully on another planet

if he loves Fairview so much he should have stayed there and not run. he *asked* for the job of governor and there is a taxpayer funded home for the governor in SLC. he’s supposed responsible for and connected to the whole state, not one really specific area
there’s a guy on tiktok who puts little cameras on his barn cat while she runs around the farm and when I tell you it has done more for my mental and overall health than any medication or therapy
@artemisfolle
once I tweeted about needing bunion surgery and a guy replied asking to see them and his whole page was bunion fetish. your foot perv is out there don’t worry
a few years ago I went from zero interest in the outdoors to really enjoying it & I TRULY do not understand why people give me shit about it. like it’s just teasing but why?? sorry I’ve made some positive shifts in my life leave me alonnnnne
the BPD community: we’re working super hard to end stigma against this disorder and be taken seriously by society and mental health professionals
pete Davidson: hold my seroquil
my former mother in law gave me chocolates with someone else’s gift tag still on it and I just really appreciate the dedication of that whole family to prove how little I ever meant to them
a girl unfollowed me on insta because she said I was ‘silent on BLM’ because I hadn’t made a post about it. IG is the one place I hadn’t spoken out *yet* and i just don’t have this energy for judging someone’s level of activism??
When my son is scared at night I tell him we have family nearby and we know our neighbors and mama knows lots of ways to keep him safe, I literally forgot we live 5 blocks from a police station because that’s the last place I would look for help
Are you ready for

I really disagree with the distribution of my tax dollars so I’m glad to know at least my weed money goes to something as wholesome as my weirdo dealer visiting his online girlfriend in japan
sitting at a bar, alone, after work, after a fucking horrible day enjoying a cocktail, PUHLEESE don’t talk to women who you think are alone because I promise we’re doing it on purpose
my son is the pride and joy of my whole life, is that not what we want for every child born? a safe home, a loving family, and the resources to raise them. that’s the shit we need to be working on if we actually give a fuck about children
I never had a daughter but I did have a little posse of teenage girls on my tumblr who followed me over to Instagram and now they’re in their 20s and I’m so proud of them all 😭
thinking about the time I bought a beautiful hand carved wooden rose on a necklace, wore it all through my senior year including to church, rediscovered it in a move several years later and realized it was clearly-CLEARLY- a vagina
me: yeah idk I just don’t love it
person who watches game of thrones: did you even give it a chance it takes 37 episodes to really get it oh just cuz it’s popular you think you’re too cool go fuck yourself
like a month ago I ended an almost decade long relationship with the father of my child and none of my 5 siblings have said anything to me about it if anyone is wondering why I am the way I am (super sad all the time)
I was so distracted by my own reflection in a window that I walked smack into another person so the difference between me and a parakeet is minimal at best
i have as many mental illness diagnoses as there have been shootings this weekend and just for the record the only person I wanna kill is myself so let’s not pretend any of this is about mental health. it stigmatizes us and lets racists off scott free
