“I was good, i was really good”

The reason I know we're so deep in conservative slop pop culture wise is nobody is catching how someone like taylor swift using lesbianism as a major insult towards another woman in a diss track is actually horrifying. Even five years ago you'd have think pieces up overnight about how anti progressive that is and it is, make no mistake. It's harmful and hurtful to turn an entire groups identity like lesbianism into some gross insult solely for the purpose of ostracizing someone else

It's literally school yard bullying pointing and laughing while going "ooooh you little freak you have a LESBIAN CRUSH ON ME! EVERYONE LOOK AT THIS LITTLE LESBO FREAK!!" and she's doing that to a south asian woman no less. It's rehashing the mean girls scene where Janis hates Regina for many reasons and one reason being she started a rumor that Janis was a lesbian and in love with her, which of course ruined her social life and made her the target of mass bullying. We're seeing that play out on a pop culture scale rn

I was actually just reading about this in Caste: The Origins of our Discontent. The author talks about how one’s body goes into stress or anxiety or defense mode when the person knows they’re being followed, watched, or otherwise scrutinized. She brought race into it. A Nigerian man, who was just a person in his country, was healthy as anything. He got to the U.S. and within a year, his doctor told him he was suddenly pre-diabetic and had high blood pressure. He never had those things in his country. He learned that being Black in the U.S. is a very different experience than being Black in a Black-centric country. The author elaborated more about those in poverty, women, and being a minority in general. Having that “fight or flight” triggered in the body, sometimes for hours or days or weeks at a time, degrades the body’s natural defenses, making them more vulnerable to disease.

being poor or a minority literally takes an average 10-15 years off of your life

The thing about taylor swift is that her songs were fun and she has a nice voice but then her fans started acting as if she's modern day's shakespeare who cannot be criticised or you're a misogynist and then she herself started to believe that, and once we factor in her girlboss feminism and lackluster politics it's like... girl. Calm down

I overheard a woman at my job say "Your whole personality revolves around what you hate instead of what you love and thats an awful way to live." to the resident vocal Maga in the breakroom.

He was stunned into silence for at least 60 seconds so that was nice.

A while ago I said something similar to my dad.

I had been listening to him complain about various things for a while (which is his preferred way of being generally) and I went, cool, now can you think of something you don’t hate and tell me about that? He immediately said no.

Oh I LOVE this! The animations are so smooth and wonderfully on point for each pokemon, and on top of that ghost type is one of my top faves.

I laughed to hard at this fucking thing.
