A cowboy rode into town and stopped at a saloon for a drink. Unfortunately, the locals always had a habit of picking on strangers, which he was. When he finished his drink, he found his horse had been stolen. He went back into the bar, handily flipped his gun into the air, caught it above his head without even looking and fired a shot into the ceiling.

“Which one of you sidewinders stole my horse?!”, he yelled with surprising forcefulness.

No one answered.

“Alright, I’m gonna have another beer, and if my horse ain’t back outside by the time I finish, I’m gonna do what I dun in Texas! And I don’t like to have to do what I dun in Texas!”

Some of the locals shifted restlessly. The man, true to his word, had another beer, walked outside, and his horse has been returned to the post.

He saddled up and started to ride out of town. The bartender wandered out of the bar and asked, “Say partner, before you go… what happened in Texas?”

The cowboy turned back and said, “I had to walk home.”

Self harm doesn’t always happen when a blade touches skin.

It’s skipping meals because you don’t feel like you deserve to eat today. It’s having sex because you want to be used or abused or defiled. It’s drinking recklessly because you might have the ‘courage’ do something stupid. It’s smoking - not because you need the nicotine - because you know it’s bad for you. It’s banging your head against a wall when you’re angry. It’s crossing the road without looking because you lowkey hope a car might hit you. It’s thinking about all the ways you could break a bone and make it look like an accident. It’s not taking painkillers because you want to suffer. It’s taking painkillers in excess because you know it’s dangerous. It’s walking home the more dangerous way because you’re kind of half hoping you’ll get attacked or raped or stabbed. It’s going for long walks at night and getting chilled to the bone and hoping that you get lost so that you can’t find your way back. It’s seeking out triggering material. It’s all the stupid little ways you punish yourself for existing.

Sometimes self harm happens when you put effort into depriving yourself of things you like or need, and sometimes it happens when you don’t put any effort into doing the things you like or need.

It’s a pattern of self-destructive behaviour, and it doesn’t only happen in one way.

there are literally no idealized relationships in Steven Universe

every relationship had its ups and downs and one person not understanding the other completely. 

I think that’s a great thing to have in a children’s cartoon, you know? Don’t expect your relationships to be perfect. Even the cutest, most compatible ones, like Connie and Steven, can have their misunderstandings, their troubles, but if you communicate, if you just talk, you can resolve your problems and enjoy a loving, mutual relationship.

My thread on xicana reproductive rights.

Transcript of the tweets pictured above:

  • During late 60s and early 70s many Mexican/Chicana women were coerced (some with no consent) into being sterilized while giving birth in L.A. (tweet)
  • If women wanted painkillers, or to proceed with c-section, they had to sign. One was told their baby would die if they didn’t in Spanish. (tweet)
  • Because of language barrier, being disoriented from pain, they signed thinking it was standard paper work. (tweet)
  • The documentary “No Mas Bebes” tells their painful stories. You can watch it on PBS through Feb. 22nd. http://www.pbs.org/independentlens/films/no-mas-bebes/ (tweet)
  • It’s a very fucked up thing and watching the film was very emotional, but important. (tweet)
  • This film got me in my feelings. Such anger. Seeing the pain in their eyes while they told their stories. Some were sterilized at only 23. (tweet)
  • One of the doctors stated he didn’t have anything against Mexicans until he started working in LA. “All they do is screw, drink, and drive.” (tweet)
  • The other day a border patrol agent asked my stepdad “why do you Mexicans like to have a lot of kids?” Are White people ever asked this? (tweet)
  • No. They get TV shows. 19 Kids And Counting, eah? But Mexicans better not have more than two, or else they’re irresponsible govt moochers. (tweet)
  • We deserve reproductive rights by all means necessary. We do not need your approval or permission to have as many children as *we* wish. (tweet)
  • And I’m glad you feel threatened by us having children because we’re going to outnumber your asses in a couple of years. Cry about it. (tweet)
  • ALSOOO, I must add that during Chicano Movement, xicanos (being the sexist men they were) didn’t care about sterilization/any xicana issues. (tweet)
  • Xicanas tried to create waiting period for sterilization for proper informed consent. White feminists, however, opposed. How familiar. (tweet)
  • White feminists wanted sterilization on demand. They didn’t understand/care how Spanish speaking women were being discriminated/targeted. (tweet)
  • It’s so interesting how as women our struggles and needs change. You fought for right to birth control, we fought for right to have kids. (tweet)
  • You wanted to be sexually liberated, we wanted to stop being sexualized. You wanted to work, we wanted to be able to sit down. (tweet)
  • When people ask why xicanisma is necessary, here you go. Machismo from our brothers. No inclusion from White women. We started our own. (tweet)
