hi can people who aren’t survivors of religious trauma specifically from evangelical christians keep the word “puritan” out of their mouths and posts?
like… it’s genuinely so insulting watching proshippers use it for people who think jacking it to kids is wrong, when i’ve seen girls be manipulated into thinking that God made them less capable of being leaders, or seen evangelical school staff actively deny the valedictorian title to a student who earned it because she was a girl.
recently learned about Lita Ford, the guitarist for Joan Jett's band The Runaways, who found herself in perhaps one of the cockamamie predicaments of all time
this shit literally sounds like the plot of a yuri manga. girliepop walked right into the setup for a 60,000 word slowburn f/f fanfic and couldn't even appreciate it
it obviously makes sense, but one of my friend’s kids is going into swim class, and all the parents got an email today going, “when little ones are scared, they cling on to instructors. PLEASE trim their nails.”
i don’t know why that’s so funny to me, but just. the idea of this poor, scratched swim instructor having to make sure to email before each class as a reminder to please declaw the children SENT me.
When I taught swim lessons I remember trying to delicately ask parents not to cover their child in shea/coconut/olive oil before lessons.
“I understand your skincare regimen and wanting to protect their tender baby flesh from the pool chemicals, but COULD YOU NOT OIL YOUR CHILD LIKE A GREASED PIG before tossing them in the POOL? Thanks EVER so much!”

I feel like if humans swallowed rocks like birds do to help grind up food we'd have so much fun with it.
Can just imagine all the girlies on tiktok going "I know this is a bit controversial but I honestly love using limestone as a gastrolith. Not only can you readily forage it but they are just so pretty when smoothed out after regurgitating them"
and then all the comments would be like " girl 😭 😭 calcite dissolves in stomach acid!! Just use quartz if you want a pretty gastrolith like 💀"
had someone comment "investing at x notes" on one of my posts and then the post just stopped getting notes which is a thousand times funnier than it blowing up if I'm being honest
That was somebody's mom whose dream had always been to be a restaurant owner but sadly she married into the mafia and she was like the mom of someone important and moms are like the one authority italians recognise so when she put her foot down and said "NO. We are going to make them great food and give them the most lovely evening!" Nobody dared disagree and thanks to op she got to live her dream for a night she probably remembers them as fondly as they remember her
I disagree that periods *aren't* gross, but they're also no more gross than other bodily fluids and waste like urine, feces and vomit. Sometimes life is gross and that's nothing to be ashamed of. If you treat periods any differently from the above then that's a problem and a double standard.
some people have responded to this saying "period blood is as sanitary as venous blood" which, yes is true, but you still wouldn't want to sit in it on the bus or something, ESPECIALLY since blood-borne illnesses could still be transferred this way. Also, same with urine, while it is "sterile" inside of your body, the openings of your body are not! Once it leaves your body it has already been contaminated by the germs and bacteria around your genitals. The whole point is that, bodies are kinda gross, and that's ok. Having an accident or a bleed-through happens and it's nothing to be ashamed of, but it also isn't a pleasant experience for anyone involved and thats! okay!
The moment period blood becomes this "sacred, holy substance", that's when you get into misogynist, new-age trad bullshit that's usually also ableist and transphobic.
Period blood is just blood. If someone next to you on the subway started bleeding, sure, you might get squeamish, but you'd want to help them right? Same with a bleed-through.
It's okay to be concerned about the hygiene of period blood, because after all, it's bodily fluids. It's just not okay to treat people who menstruate like they're dirty or shameful. You wouldn't treat someone with a nosebleed like that, right?
Just....stop treating period blood like it's different, whether it's treating it like it's shameful or sacred. Both stigmatize menstruation and lead to harm.

This post just turned 10 years old which is pretty fucked up actually. When I made this post people would say things like “actually supernatural only has 8 seasons” but here we are in 2023 so who’s laughing now. Not me I want to die
My brother's girlfriend had HPV, so he went to get himself the HPV vaccine. There is a fee to pay (nothing much, something like €87) but it's completely free if you're in one of the "at risk" groups.
"What does that mean," he asks.
"It's free if you're gay," he's told.
"Ah. Would I have to like, prove it, or...?"
"Just put in a check mark here."
My brother is in no way, shape or form attracted to men, but also he's stingy as it gets. So now he's officially gay. Congrats bro.
"Doctor, give it to me straight"
"You sure, there's a fee"
"… Give it to me gay"

Fascinated by the fact that his first question was about if he'd have to prove it. I wanna know how far that man would go to save less than a dollar
Sorry, do you think 87 euros is less than a dollar
ALTIsekai except the fantasy world is literally just like a ten minute hike away from everything else and has just explicitly never been found.
The protagonist gets hit by a truck but instead of dying they roll down a comically tall hill through like a mile of woods and then they wake up in a fantasy village
