This is breaking containment into the TERF enclosures which I very much expected, but I will happily shout from the rooftops that furry porn artists are more productive and beneficial to society than JKR’s incessant whining on the elon musk dick riding app about how much she hates trans people
1439 votes but 288 reblogs because the TERFs are afraid of the truth so they're just linking it directly to each other lmao
Explain your reasoning plzzz

Just so we’re all clear, it is okay to miss people you no longer want in your life.
this is so important
some people genuinely have trouble with never being told this. i am reblogging this post in case that includes any of you in my audience.
You’re missing the memories, not the person them self
You miss the person you thought they were, not who they turned out to be, and that’s okay.
Sometimes you just miss the person you were around them, or the things that happened when you were with them, and you don’t really miss them, and that’s okay, too.
Sometimes you just miss them because they bent down to pick up a coin
please say which in the tags!
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.
A Seattle-area guaranteed basic income pilot gave low-income residents $500 a month to help reduce poverty. Employment in the group nearly doubled, and numerous unhoused residents secured housing. The Workforce Development Council of Seattle-King County launched a 10-month guaranteed basic income pilot program with 102 participants in fall 2022. New findings by research firm Applied Inference reveal that the $5,000 total payments improved participants' quality of life, housing, and employment outcomes.
Oh gosh look: another successful UBI pilot program.
Not only was employment doubled in the test group, their savings increased, and health & life insurance coverage tripled. Many participants got health insurance for the first time.
It's time to roll this out nationwide and with more money. The return on investment is undeniable and would be huge if it applied to everyone.
But before that happens, we need to kneecap Landlords and similar people first, so people can still live.
"ohh what if my kid starts identifying as a CAT because of the trans agenda we have to prote—" well they've always done that. do you remember the psychological effects of h2o on young girls. of warrior cats on autistic children. i believed i was a demigod because of percy jackson. twilight came out and kids were telling their friends they were secretly vampires. this is just a thing kids do. worry less
Q+A from library visit where I read my comic about a skeleton that plays the fiddle
Kid: Is this fiction?
Me: Yeah
Kid: I kinda thought so
Me: Oh really? Why?
Kid: Because skeletons aren't real
Me: Skeletons are real. You have one!
Kid, jumping up out of his seat: Yeah but they don't move around!!
Me: Your skeleton's moving around right now!
Kid, yelling: THAT'S!! DIFFERENT!!!

Hey Tumblr, I hate doing this but;
Broke my arm recently. Need surgery on it. My out of pocket expenses are gonna be $4300, $2000 of which need to be paid prior to surgery. Which is (checks notes) tomorrow.
Literally anything you send my way would help.
Bringing this back because the first of my medical bills are coming in. I have insurance, thank god, but I live in America, the land of private insurance companies and have not yet met my deductible. Thus, I still owe, after assorted xrays, three separate casts, surgery, ect (checks notes) about $1700. I still have to go back for more xrays and appointments to monitor healing and to physical therapy once the cast comes off.
This is better than the $8700 my insurance company has so far been billed for, but still. Any help would be appreciated. Even if I can just pay off the $700 anesthesia (OUT OF NETWORK YAYYYY) bill that would really help.
This is a PSA about the last:
if you didn’t choose the anesthesiologist, then it’s the surgery center’s problem, because that is SPECIFICALLY covered by the No Surprises Act of 2022.
Remember, friends, insurance companies are out for their shareholders: that’s why we regulate them.
And if your insurance company gives you shit about it, or the surgery center or anesthesiologist does, remind them about the act.
Hang on, WHAT
Like I still have $1000 worth of copay with more coming and anything is still deeply appreciated but I'm kissing you on the mouth right now
Don't forget the magic trick of asking for an itemized bill, which will be magically smaller

You are the adventurer who went on an epic quest and defeated the evil king, all to gain the sacred amulet and use its one wish to revive your sister. Now everyone expects you to accept her death and use the wish to undo the damage instead. You refuse.
Blood has stopped streaming from the wound bisecting your brow, but it still stings your eyes something fierce. You take your gauntlets off, grimacing as the grime and soot from battle tries to keep the metal welded to your skin. There’d been an explosion during the final fight with the king – no, the tyrant. Explosions, maybe. Your magic’s been erratic lately, the sudden growth of your mana pool far outpacing your control. You wipe your eyes with the back of your cleaner hand.
There’s pressure in your chest you’ve never felt before. You want to laugh. No, you want to scream. Your body is too tired to jump around like you did when you were a little girl, but you find yourself bouncing in place regardless. The thrill of battle and of escaping the castle as it collapsed is thrumming through your veins. You did it. You did it.
You are so happy, so devastatingly happy, that you can feel yourself shutting down. You need—you need rest. Food. Sleep.
Then you can save her. Then you can bring her back.
“Roksala,” Prince Eloyn says. You squint past the last rays of day to see him frowning at you. The ruins of the tyrant’s castle don’t appear to interest him. His eyes narrow. “Are you ignoring me?”
