Ah, yes. The Barnes and Noble Manga section, featuring literal normal books with anime people on the cover and actual literal transphobia and enbymisia. You love to see it 🙄

On the one hand, huge corporations/brands like Oreo simply tweeting out “Trans people exist” is the most boring, blatant, shallow attempt at being an ally ever it’s laughable
BUT ON THE OTHER HAND, a brand tweeting something so milquetoast and hollow STILL riles up the chuds and makes them call for boycotts so whatever, let the brands tweet

It is, in fact, possible to express your love for something without implying that the alternative is awful and terrible and bad

Re: mh (-), sui 

I think I'm doing better now. It's still gonna be rough going forward, but I'll make it through. I always do.

At this point, all I can do is cling to not self-harming or killing myself. I'm having to actively fight many urges, urges that are very strong right now. The urge to self harm. The urge to kill myself. The urge to isolate myself from the friend group this happened in. The urge to run away and never come back.

It's hard when all I want is to fucking die.

Well, if today wasn't the shittiest day. Still broken after last night's realization that I'm not okay, this was a very bad start to the day. For the first time in a while, I've had serious suicidal thoughts and have wanted to self harm all day. When the internet broke, I lost hope of having a good day due to hanging out with friends cheering me up. And when it came back, a friend's mental issues and me accidentally triggering them trashed the benefit of hanging out. Fuck this shit.

Clarification re: Question for a subset of plural folk 

Ooh, and some clarification! This isn't about experiences. This is, for example, knowing what the word acquiesce, means. If one of you knows, does the other, or do you have to explicitly share that knowledge?

Question for a subset of plural folk, :boost_ok:​ 

Question for those of you who only ever have one personality fronting (iirc, median systems): Do you, the one out front, and any other personalities floating around in your head have a shared knowledge pool or do y'all each know things the other(s) doesn't? e.g. Jade and I fall into the former category. She doesn't know anything I don't. But I'm curious if that's different for anyone else.
(Feel free to reply with specifics!)

Mention executive dysfunction, oral hygiene, dental health 

I have a question for other folks who struggle with executive dysfunction and/or low spoons

I have talked to my therapist about it and I am struggling to make myself brush my teeth

Like I sometimes think about it all day
But I just can't seem to make myself stop to do it

And like, I actually don't mind the sensation
And I've bought oral hygiene supplies that I like

What else can I do?
Anything?

dementia and Biden “jokes” 

Y’all don’t need to constantly make sundowning/dementia jokes about Biden at the slightest hint of a stutter or whatever. Having to watch family members slowly forget you isn’t a cool joke you need to remind ur friends of going through for a sick own on the libs.

Learning that people suffering from the storm and blackout in Texas were using the guide in our book Recipes for Disaster to build a rocketstove with which to heat food and water, we've put the directions online here in their entirety:

cwc.im/rocketstove

Please circulate.

PSA, txpol 

Please remember that due of the decision of ERCOT and our state government, that this stuff is affecting the worst off of us more than the rich. Think about that before you decide to start mocking texans. Please. And maybe consider redirecting that mockery towards anger at a government we have no say in and capitalists' incessant need for profits above all else.
