Hey, you are not an embarrassment for not knowing how to do certain household chores/basic self-care. They do not come naturally to us. A lot of it takes practice! Maybe you had a neglectful guardian. Maybe you had one that was very coddling and never thought to teach you. Maybe you haven't lived in a place where these things were available to you or needed. Doesn't matter. It's okay to not know and far more common than you might realise.

That said, this website provides very simple instructions on how to do everyday tasks such as making your bed, using a washing machine, cooking different foods, washing dishes, taking a shower, etc. All you have to do is use the search bar to find the task you're struggling with, and it'll come up with what you need + other related how-to's:)

If you're having trouble navigating it, let me provide you with some examples:

It's also perfectly okay if these don't help or aren't appealing to you. Unfortunately, nothing helps everyone.

if your class solidarity doesn’t include people who are on SSI, food stamps, or are unable to work it’s not solidarity

this also applies to homeless people, sex workers and undocumented workers. include them or your solidarity is meaningless

yes this includes people who “mooch off” their parents by still living with them into adulthood. you are not an ally to disabled or poor people if you hold disdain for those who cannot live on their own.

As protests start ramping up and violence escalates please remember:

DO NOT PUT MILK IN YOUR EYES FOR PEPPER SPRAY OR TEAR GAS.

It can and will cause infection due to bacteria. Flush with water, distilled if possible, and never EVER wear contact lenses to protests where there may be police retaliation.

Please reblog. It may save someone's sight.

Water reactivates pepper spray and it will hurt like hell. Use saline. It will still hurt like hell but you'll get it over with faster. Here's another link with treatment solutions.

“why are all your friends transfems?” why do the flowers bloom each year? why do the rivers continue to flow on and on? why do people sing? why do you smile? because they’re fucking beautiful and my world wouldn’t be the same without them. I love my friends so much.

Sorry I was dreaming of a world where trannies don't have to be inspired creatives or kinky sex bombs or skilled programmers or funny shit posters or successful women in STEM or perfectly passing or (often unwilling) voices for their whole community or perfect saints to get some God damn love and respect from people who aren't also trannies.

I hope one day we can all just be some chick.

"love every trans girl before it's too late" you don't though, not really. Unity and Love until she's annoying. Unity and Love until she's unfuckable. Unity and Love until shes not conventionally attractive. Unity and Love until they don't want to use she.

It's always someone else's problem, the charitable soul, not yours. Then the charitable soul is distant, or overburdened, and there is no charity to be found, and thus it is Too Late, and then where are we?

Fuck off. A better world is possible. You condescending pricks.

having collaborative ocs with friends will have you saying shit like "what if scimble was bumpus wouldnt that be funny" and then like two weeks later its one of the most important pieces of lore you have

the stakes are funny to me

You have to ENSURE the Dems win every single election. The Reps can't win even once or it'll be the end of US democracy (disputed) as we know it

It's really good because it shifts the blame when the Dems lose from the party and their inability to run a successful election campaign to the voters who don't want to vote for a party that's antithetical to their needs and wants.

what if you’re giving birth to twins and it’s the end of daylights savings day and the older twin was born first but the second twin travels back in time and is born an hour before the first twin, would that be fucked up or what.

This is like one of those riddle-of-the-Sphinx loopholes, like “I can only be defeated by a younger brother who is first born of his family” and this clown rolls up like “BUDDY, HAVE I GOT A STORY FOR YOU…” 

Macbeth ass

kinda sick of all those posts that are like "my ancestors were surviving starvation and the plague meanwhile i get nervous ordering food at restaurants". as if jauffrey the woodworker didn't fumble his conversation with the fine maiden running the fruit stand and then tripped on a pebble as he left in a hurry

ive found that partially treated mental illness can sometimes look to uninvolved onlookers like faked mental illness.

"someone who really has pOCD would be disgusted and horrified at their intrusive thoughts" or maybe i'm in therapy & am going by the books, being radically ambivalent to my intrusive thoughts instead of wasting energy mentally washing my paws of sin. i'm not going to perform my rock bottom for you for the sake of being believed.

also like... something something, being afraid of healing because you're afraid of letting go of the stability of misery, letting go of the narrative you made up to feel worthy of attention, letting go of your "sympathy cred," this narrative has probably killed a few ppl.

Generally if you find yourself demanding to know why strangers aren't living more miserable lives, you're probably in the wrong.

in light of israel's looming invasion on rafah, south africa implored the icj to call for the protection of palestinians with new preliminary orders. the icj denied this request, insisting that its january orders would be sufficient in ensuring the safety of people residing in rafah.

we have all seen how israel responded to the icj verdict earlier this month. they have all but intensified their attacks on palestinians, their favorite of whom seem to be children. this will end in a bloodbath. palestinians, already malnourished and living in literal tents, will be bombarded, they will be shot, they will be slaughtered. and when i say palestinians, a lot of them are actual toddlers. the videos coming out of this are proof enough.

at this point, it has been made amply clear that palestinians will never experience safety in their own homeland. a lot of the families in gaza are trying to raise funds to get out of it, because there's nowhere left to go.

there is nowhere left to go. if these people don't get the funds necessary to escape, they will die.

it's vital that you go to operation olive branch's spreadsheet, choose a family that resonates with you, and donate as much as you can to their gofundme. every last dollar counts. one dollar could be the difference between life and death for a family. please don't fall victim to the bystander effect. your contribution matters, however little it may be. and whether you're able to donate or not, spread this to as many people as you can. each second we stay silent is a second an entire family is brutally massacred.

Oh I absolutely have Warrior Cat fan followers. Also @the-adventures-of-dave and @catsindoors

Oh absolutely monarchist.

There is a rule in their code that the word of the leader is law.

The leaders are most often chosen by their predecessors but essentially have to be approved of by the cat gods, whose rulings are kind of arbitrary? Whether you get your 9 lives depends on their mood at the time, I guess. Anyways, very divine right of kings esque.

Major issues with colonialist themes and anti-indigenous tropes. There’s a lot of conversation about the extent and nature of these subjects within the series (and fandom) which I’m not qualified to comment on but the most people can agree the problem is present at least to some degree.

I’m not going to get into other issues (ableism, sexism) because they’re not super relevant to the “Are the clans monarchist?” question but yeah. 100% it isn’t even a question, these cats are having tea with the queen.
