I miss when library books used to have little paper pockets inside with a list of all the people who borrowed it and when... I hate that this is now exclusive knowledge of librarians. I do care that a miss Mariana borrowed this book in 1985 and then Dario in 1997. They're my brothers and sisters
I am not in this life to fucking watch ads
Your hatred of evil means nothing if it isn't coming from a place of genuinely loving and caring for the oppressed btw. This has been said a million times by a million people but I'm saying it again like
Everybody hates nazis but do you love Jewish people. Everybody hates terfs but do you love trans women. Everybody hates cops but do you love black people. And so on and so forth. Like are you really standing for anything or are you just posturing on social media trying to look like a good person
Listen I'm not dissing hatred I think it's great to want x oppressive force to fucking die but you have to take that energy and do something productive with it.. Like you have to actually support the communities you're trying to defend. Learn about other people. Ask how you can make them feel comfortable in your spaces. Etc etc etc
There was a quack in the ice.

happy valentines day to the only movie ever
idc if u like winter or autumn or whatever nothing tops summer evenings when the sun hasnt fully set and the air is still warm but theres a light breeze and everything is getting more quiet except for the birds and crickets and its a perfect time to go on a walk and just breathe
cant stand time zones. i want to experience time together
not to sound like your dad but if your not having a great time rn you might legitimately be playing too many video games or being on that damn phone too often, or at least without any necessary activity buffers
may i suggest coloring with physical materials? or some chores you’ve been putting off? hell go outside with a bucket and make mud soup like you’re five again. take a break. you can bring your whatever for music and stuff but like don’t play with it
The fact that im getting raw dogged by life everyday. Don’t have any medication to take the edge off. Nor any addiction, I don’t even got a religion or spirituality to fall back on. Im facing this life stone cold sober every goddamn day??? Why???
Me when im awake, alert, unmedicated, sober and not religious
i honestly think best part of tumblr is making a personal post and it getting zero notes. that’s like hundreds of people side eyeing you like ok i’m not touching that
And one last wintery throwback - an Ikol from 2013!

being fat isn’t a bad thing or a dirty word so don’t take this as me suggesting that it is, but it’s kind of insane how warped pop culture is about women’s bodies that everyone in 2014 was convinced meghan trainor was fat
like.. this is how she looked in all about that bass
and i remember so many people talking about how overweight she was and making fat jokes about her- and none of that would have been remotely okay if she actually was fat- that isn’t okay no matter what. the reason fatphobia is bad isn’t because she isn’t fat; it’s bad because fatphobia is always awful, and especially targets actually fat women. but it’s moreso just insane to me that people’s baseline for what a fat person looks like is just so exceptionally warped. like it sincerely floors me
i’m legitimately surprised that y’all are confused about this as if this hasn’t been a thing for decades, as if kate winslet wasn’t called “kate weighs-a-lot” during the filming and after the release of titanic
fatphobia has been around showbusiness for years. even now, the majority of the parts fat or midsize actors get are “comic relief whose only character trait is being fat”, “ugly main character who loses weight and suddenly is desired by everyone” or “the one who dies first in the horror movie”.
see also: the movie “the duff”, where the “designated ugly fat friend” is played by an actress who IS NOT FAT.
all of these are women who would statistically have below average weight, but showbiz goes hand in hand with diet culture so they call them fat because they know that that way they’ll make more people feel miserable about themselves and then those people will buy those teas that make you shit your pants or start diets or subscribe to exercise plans that don’t work.
and it’s not just the women either. hollywood wants you to think that this is what an ideal healthy man looks like:
when really, this is unsustainable and for a large part unobtainable physique. zac efron exercised for several hours a day every day and basically only ate protein to look like this, and is likely dehydrated as fuck in the shot for extra muscle definition. meanwhile this is zac actually being happy and healthy:
and i think we can all agree that he still looks fucking amazing. this is what a healthy strong guy looks like. you know what every tabloid called this when down to earth with zac efron came out? A DAD BOD.
tl;dr fatphobia is awful and showbusiness thrives on making people have body image issues.
