- my requirements for sleeping at night: is the pillow cool enough? are my legs positioned so they don't put too much weight on each other? are my arms tucked in nicely and not at odd angles? can I stop thinking about the day's events? is enough of my body out from under the blanket that I won't overheat? are my toes safely tucked in to hide them from monsters?
- my requirements for sleeping in the morning: is the surface vaguely horizontal and not made entirely out of hornets
rifa:
Watch: Viral clip shows a woman in genderless clothing being ejected from a ladies’ bathroom by the police.
I saw this tagged as transphobia and while the laws and atmosphere that surrounds this is very much grounded in transphobia, I think it’s worth mentioning that that’s a cis woman.
So you know.
Fucking thanks, TERFs. Aren’t you glad bathroom laws trying to prevent “men” from entering the ladies room has caused two male police officers to eject cis women from the bathroom already? Since that’s the only women you care about maybe you might actually spend longer than .5 seconds thinking about possible fucking reprocussions of this shit now.
TBH this is gonna be the first step towards these laws getting repealed ok
but the male police officers are allowed in the womens bathroom? ok……
You know the laws don’t apply to cops
Bathroom Bills were put in place with the logic of “keep men out of womens’ bathrooms” and now you’ve got ACTUAL men in womens’ bathrooms, harassing women. The bills have created a problem that wasn’t there in the first place that was trying to be removed through law. Good job, Legislate Fuckwits.
just let people use the fucking bathroom come the fuck on
Okay, so we all know that Poe went around the Resistance base telling everyone about the Handsome Stormtrooper that saved his life – but what about BB-8? Imagine BB-8 coming back to base and promptly telling everyone about the good brave human who saved his Poe. This is Finn he is so lovely, he is the best of all humans, look at him, be nice to him – he’s a little bit slow – doesn’t understand droid at all but he’s a quick learner.
And imagine ALL THE DROIDS falling into line, looking after Finn, and Finn is just so nice to them because he remembers what it’s like to be treated like you’re nothing, like you don’t have a personality. And they just adopt him: Finn the best human, they designate him, and R2-D2 – battle-hardened war vet that he is – teaches him binary but teaches him the bastardised sweary binary that all the older droids speak and BB-8 is innocent and oblivious and C3-PO is scandalised because Finn is going round saying things like fuck me this is hot in this little whistle-beep.
And whenever Finn sits down he’s surrounded by happy young droids who absolutely adore him, and he is just so nice and all the droids go out of their way to do things for him.
And yes. Give me sweet lovely Finn with his droid ducklings.
And when the base is attacked, it’s the droids who turn the base into a deathtrap for the invaders - doors that trap or crush, sanitation systems that break explosively, power that reroutes itself on the fly to keep one squad in the dark while on the other side of the base another entire squad is electrocuted courtesy of a misfiring sprinkler system - and at the helm coordinating everything is Finn, knee-deep in young droids chanting reports from every part of the base in between best human, best human, BEST HUMAN.

I needed this today. [x]
I don’t know about other fields, but this is epidemic among new medical professionals.
Famously epidemic among IT people, especially the older self-taught set; also famously epidemic among women professionals.
And everyone in academia.
I know a lot of creative people who might want to see this.
Especially my writer friends.

ideas for research
- why are literally all short people so angry
- how do all the gay kids group together before any of them come out
- is emo hereditary
You’re on your own for two out of three, but let me tell you a thing: short people are angry because our compacted physical forms compress and harden grudges and rages until they surpass the feeble coal-stuff of tall folk and the half-assed graphite of average heighted people, into pure and glistening diamond fury.

- me, talking about gay people in history: people who we would define as gay, lesbian, or bisexual have always existed, but it is important to remember that different cultures in different time periods view ideas of gender and sexuality in different ways, so we should be careful not to project our concepts and terminology onto them and make sure not to make assumptions without evidence when talking about them academically
- a homophobic historian: there's no way these important historical figures could ever have been gay
- me: wow guess what i've changed my mind, all of my historical faves are gay now, time to go write a dissertation about how gay my faves were, excuse me as i publish 50 articles about my gay-ass faves
