Not a lot. Shameful and will haunt us for a long time.
I’m absolutely horrified to think what is happening to them.
Hey America what the actual fuck

You don’t actually mean that much to me I just enjoy being dramatic
I think the reason I enjoy Ghibli so much is it romanticizes the little things. It makes me want to bake, study, clean the house, garden, and more while listening to happy music and occasionally picking wildflowers and lying in the grass. It helps me find joy in day-to-day life and that’s honestly sooo important for my mental health.
Hayao Miyazaki has said on numerous occasions that he wants children to know that even when the world seems harsh and life is hard, it is always still worth living, and there is always something beautiful in it.
That mental health boost is intentional and Miyazaki wants you to believe that you should continue to live, even if just for those little things.
real power is going outside knowing you look ugly and also knowing that if you chose to perform femininity in accordance with patriarchal standards you could look attractive, but genuinely prefering to look ugly and not feeling bad about it. feels good feels organic
True, honest, genuine power is going outside knowing you look gorgeous bc you don’t need to perform hyper femininity the way men want you to and that you can be stunning despite patriarchal ideals
i appreciate the intent but i actually made this post in direct response to the liberal feminist tendency to widen the parameters of “beauty” rather than challenging the concept itself and specifically the notion that women must be beautiful to be valuable, and as such my choice of words was very deliberate—i have no interest in being assured i am beautiful and a great deal of interest in existing without being told i must be such. this post is not self-deprecating and does not call for bathroom-stall platitudes. ugliness in women is threatening and i embrace that.
oh sorry i was thinking about myself did you want something
#RepealTheEight won in Ireland.
I want all the angry pro-lifers in the notes to know that the catalyst for this vote was the death of a pregnant woman who died from sepsis after being denied an abortion for a fetus her doctors had determined wasn’t viable. If you’re mad about this I expect all of you to write me a 2,000 word essay on how exactly it’s pro-life to advocate policies which literally kill pregnant people.
As opposed to killing children? I mean this whole debate is either the mama can possibly dies or the baby dies for sure
You’re seventeen so I’m not gonna be hard on you about this, but when a fetus isn’t viable it means the fetus is going to die in the womb. There was never going to be a baby because something went wrong during development that made the fetus too sick to survive. When this happens it’s vital that the pregnant person gets an abortion before the fetus dies because once the fetus is dead the remains begin to decay and rot inside them, and that is extraordinarily dangerous. In Savita’s case, her fetus died as predicted by her doctors, and because she was forced to carry out her doomed pregnancy, she contracted sepsis from the fetal remains and died.
Savita was never going to be able to deliver that child, whether she got an abortion or not. The difference is that if she’d been allowed to abort her pregnancy, Savita would still be here with us. Her life could have been saved where her pregnancy could not.
Nearly all late-term abortions are the same story. They happen when it’s known that the baby will not be born, as a way to save the life of the person carrying the pregnancy.
To be honest.. if more children were shown from birth that they are loved, cared for, and listened no matter their gender we might not have some of the problems we have now.
Me, a terrible person: wtf?? Wtf I’m a good person I dont deserve this??
me after one glass of wine: I need to get FUCKED
