poor lifestyle thoughts 

was thinking that I should really go and get some dinner soon, otherwise I'd be too hungry to do anything tomorrow morning. then I realized that I'd somehow already eaten dinner (atop a legendarily rare Proper Breakfast and Lunch Combo) three hours ago and had a small existential crisis

the only free time I have is in the evenings and that makes me SO mad

Whiteness (required reading @ whites) 

I've found a rather effective response to anecdotal experiences of '"reverse racism'".
You must validate that their pain was undeserved, and that they suffered unfairly. But you must, specifically frame it as prejudice, xenophobia, bullying, antisemitism, or whichever term you'd feel would be an adequate replacement for 'racism'.
Ex:
"I was chased down the street with a weapon for being a white boy."
"That's a horrible act of prejudice you experienced, and I'm sorry for that."

"I got made fun of for having a big nose in my home country because I'm half white."
"That's disgusting! And that has overlapping aspects with racism because it highlights antisemitism and antiblackness, both of which shame larger or more shapely noses, specifically."

I'm not saying this isn't a tricky response, and I'm not saying it can't be pidgeonholed or escalate some situations. But it's a really good way of showing someone that there is a word for their suffering, and racism isn't just a blanket term.

Mass shooting hot take 

The common thread in all the mass shootings we've seen is that it's always the same Angry White Boy behind it.

Like, can we finally admit to that? Toxic Masculinity produces Radioactive Waste in the form of Mass Shooters. Capitalism makes their lives miserable. Easily available weapons Just Like in Call Of Duty and a media ready to fuss over them for a month...

Well, fuel, air, compression, spark. Boom.

White Men Kill People.

Coanenepilli, or passion fruit flower (I read someone describe this flower as "that one contestant on Project Runway that adds ALL the things" and tbh tru) was iconic for more than just lookin extra. It was an anti spasmodic, diuretic, pain reliever, and was used to nullify poisons and even snake bites. It was a highly prized herb and ticitl paid handsomely for it in trade from the lowland tribes.
