That Sucks - Tumblr Posts

Tired of how much people mischaracterize Michael by making him the most depressed, self hating mf ever. Have you...not paid attention to the show? Michael in the bathroom hits so hard because that's. Not like him. It's not a common occurrence. That's why it has such an impact!! It's so out of character for Michael, the goofy, fun, supportive, dorky best friend, Michael who has so much confidence that he doesn't even care about "embarrassing" himself by doing stuff like dancing and Vibing to music in the halls, or wearing a literal pride patch and making himself a target for homophobia, Michael who literally giggles at the "Boyf Riends" bullying attempt by Rich, to have such a downer moment, to literally have a panic attack in a bathroom, to self loathe and speak badly about himself, to overthink everything, to BLAME HIMSELF for someone else's actions, that's NOT the Michael we're shown for the rest of the show!! His character is much more deep and impactful once you learn to notice/accept that!!

i hope to never find that option

WHY DOES TURNING ON MY HEADLIGHTS TURN OFF EVERY DISPLAY IN MY CAR ?????????

Sometimes incremental change is the only change possible, and I for one would much rather have incremental change that (even subtly and slowly!) does something rather than wasting time with infighting and squabbling amongst ourselves getting nothing done.

And yeah, it's not ideal. I know that. We all know.

Being told to go vote while having our rights taken away feels like shit. But I'd rather cast my damn vote than not cast it, and if we don't vote, the republicans are going to keep voting and keep winning because they show up and we don't.

And you can do more than that, if you've the capability. Donate to abortion funds and planned parenthood if you have the money! Go to protests if you know you can stay safe! Email your senators if you feel comfortable doing that! And if you can't do those things for one reason or another, then go vote--especially in the primaries so we get a better candidate next time.

Sitting on the internet being sad and feeling helpless is not going to help us.

I too am sick of being told to vote as my rights are stripped away. But it's better to do it than to not, because these days, us not voting is a win for the fascists.

Some of you really need to drop the “incremental change is worthless” shit and start appreciating the sacrifices of the activists who spent hundreds of years making the incremental changes that made this country livable for people who aren’t straight white Christian men.

I’ve seen a lot of posts about how “well Democrats could have prevented this but didn’t, so they’re just as bad as Republicans and voting is worthless”, and those posts do a massive disservice to all the people who have been fucking trying. Almost every issue I’ve seen people complain about Democrats not preventing, there’s a bill that would’ve fixed it that got stalled by Republicans in the House or Senate. Democrats tried to pass abortion protection just last month but Republicans in the Senate blocked it. Acting like Democrats totally have the power to fix everything and just aren’t doing it is not only blatantly untrue, but it’s massively damaging and spreads a message of helplessness and despair. That’s the last fucking thing we need right now!

You know why evangelicals have so much power despite being a minority of the population? Because they show up. They’re a dedicated, consistent voting block who show up to EVERY election, every town hall meeting, and every PTA meeting, vocally and en masse. And it took them 50 years, but now we’re seeing the results of all that grassroots organizing.

So yeah. There’s not going to be a revolution that just magically fixes every problem with this country. There IS going to be a huge number of people who wake up every day determined to make tiny changes - to their town, their community, their schools, their libraries - and they’re going to do that every day for 50 years, and if there’s enough of them, we’ll get there. It’s slow and it sucks and it’s not glamorous or exciting, but it’s how progress is made. So get off your high horse and join us, and maybe we can get there a little faster. 

Would I have someone like this in my college?

No.. Never..

I'm pretty positive everyone has a crush on college au JK. 🐰👀

Just saying-

Let's keep adding to this!!

There’s no such thing as work-life balance for neurodivergent & chronically ill people.

This is because everything in my life requires work:

maintaining friendships

keeping up with my hygiene

managing bills

making money

remembering my basic needs

sleeping regularly

outputting creatively

All requires some aspect of work for me.

And when everything in your life requires work, your balance goes out the window.

If you're neurodivergent and overwhelmed — I see you.

If you're chronically ill and overwhelmed — I see you.

You're not dysfunctional.

You're not incapable.

You're doing your best.

Dang. That's such a good book too. A little mature, but nothing too concerning.

Oh, so we've got armed police raiding schools to remove LGBTQ books. Cool. Coolcoolcool. Very normal society.
