If you’re living in the US and reading this right now, I need you to know that if republicans take over office this next election, human rights are as good as dead.

The Heritage Foundation, a major Republican think tank, has published a 1,000 page document detailing how they want conservatives to take over the government and what they think should be done as soon as they’re in office. It is, in a nutshell, a call for fascism.

If you’re trans, know that one of the things it includes is basically banning trans people from having our existence acknowledged and it’s worded in a way where you could reasonably understand it to mean that being trans and going out in public is enough to get you put in jail for exposing minors to porn.

If you’re an immigrant, sanctuary cities are also going to be dead under this plan as district attorneys who don’t enforce the federal laws they plan to implement will be charged with crimes as well and they’re banking on them not being willing to pay the fines they’d be charged with in order to protect you.

If you care about climate change and safety regulations, kiss the regulations goodbye and prepare to watch the environment slowly get destroyed.

Here’s a link to the video I watched on this

Here’s a PBS article on it

Here’s where you can read the whole thing if you’re so inclined

Hey. Hey guys?

Do us all a favor and

Fucking VOTE

do you not remember the free the nipple protests at all it is literally saying exactly that. like that was their whole thing. you shouldn’t need ~consent~ from onlookers to exist with a body in a public space.

I literally just want to exist, occasionally with my shirt off on a hot day. When I was little I had short hair and no one knew I was AFAB, so I was allowed to go shirtless. If I’d had long hair it would have been seen as inappropriate even with the same fucking chest. That’s how bizarre this shit is.

the point of the movement was to remove the idea that afab chests are sexually obscene. There is no reason an afab sitting on the beach with no top or bra is considered “flashing” but an amab doing the exact same thing is just acknowledged as normal for the beach or just a warm day.

The fact people consider it “flashing” and violating consent inherently to have an afab topless is exactly why the movement existed to begin with. If a person is perceived female by western society, they are inherently sexualized as a leftover impact of Christian purity cultural emphasis on female modesty and the notion that if a man falters in his own chastity it is the woman to blame for tempting him from his faith with her “sinful body”.

A nipple is not inherently sexual. Yes it can sexually excite some people, but so can feet and armpits and I don’t see anyone calling a guy a flasher for walking barefoot.

Why would you hide that in the notes

I want an ice maker and enough room in the freezer for a pizza and that is IT.

I want the dumbest fridge you got. Gimme the orange tabby of refrigeration. I want my fridge to pull the wrong lever and turn my enemies into llamas instead of killing them. I want the following features: keeps things cold, has compartment that keeps things colder, a door that opens and shuts.

“Here at Stupid Jeff’s Dumb Appliance Warehouse we sell the dumbest fucking appliances. Check out this fridge. This fridge won’t ask you about your day, this dumb fucking fridge doesn’t know what an Elon Musk is and won’t fucking tell you what bullshit that dumb monkey is slapping into his phone today when you try to get some fucking milk. We took out all those "smart” electronics and in their place we put a loaded Glock 9mm that is put right up to that light that turns on when you open the door, which is the smartest thing in this fucking stupid fridge and let me tell you that fucker is on thin goddamn ice, if it gets too smart and tries to turn on before you open that door, the Glock will blow it to hell. Speaking of ice, this stupid fridge makes it. It makes ice, it keeps things cold, it comes with shelves. It’s sturdy enough that when your ex comes back to your place looking for their stuff that they think they left behind like nine months ago and they know that you don’t have it, but they wanted an excuse to come start a fight with you and throw a chair at your head but miss you and hit your fridge MICHAEL, this fridge will keep trucking because it gives zero shits and it only lives to keep things cold. Come to Stupid Jeff’s Dumb Appliance Warehouse, if you ask us if we have an app, we break your kneecaps.“

Yes, such a claim makes him look like a small-minded piece of shit. To us. But we still shouldn’t help Musk create revisionist history.

Musk bought Twitter because he fucked around and found out. He wanted to fuck with Twitter’s stock price by feigning interest in buying it. Since that’s illegal, he was then cornered into actually buying it for an insanely inflated price.

He’s a transphobe. He’s a bad father. But he’s also a fucking idiot.

I’m a very messy person who tries VERY HARD to keep a clean home. It’s probably ADHD. Anyway, the best advice I ever saw about it was:

“Instead of changing your habits to keep clean, look at where the clutter is. Now put a bin under it.”

I tend to remove my socks at the computer and then there’s a mountain of socks on the floor? I put a small bin and now it looks tidy. There are piles of junk mail on the table near my front door because I can never bring them to the recycling bin? I put a smaller recycling bin there. Etc etc.

Another trick that helps me immensely are BOXES.

The bathroom sink is covered in small bottles and all sorts of products? I got small plastic crates and I put them over the toilet lid, one for my stuff, the other for my roomate’s. The linen closet is just piles of things that fall when you open the door? Baby I just got a bunch of baskets and I will separate them by function.

I have baskets and small boyxes for: my cleaning products; my bird’s toys and stuff; my workout accessories; my meds and daily skincare products; my tools; and pretty much all my art stuff. 

It still takes some effort to keep everything in its place, but having everything in a box still looks tons better than having everything on the counter, and it’s so better for the mental health. 

After YEARS of a perpetually messy room with clothes all over the floor… I cleared off two shelves of my bookshelves. Clothes go there if they aren’t ready for laundry yet.

One change, and my floors are clear. And because they’re clear, they’re easier to keep clean.

One of the principles of design is that you have to design things according to how human beings act, not how you think they ought to act. That goes for designing your own space as well: organize for the you that you are, not the you that you think you ought to become.
