A thought I had while studying tarot: instead of saying “masculine” and “feminine” to mean those behaviors, personalities or vibes, how about saying “solar” and “lunar” instead?
You don’t have to use unnecessarily gendered language and I don’t need a second reason because you don’t have to use unnecessarily gendered language.
in theory its super bad when straight dudes go “hey ur a lesbian? we both like girls we’re the same!” but in reality this has happened twice and most recently was today when a guy i was training in the frame shop went “oh you’re gay?” “yea” “that’s cool. it’s cool that you told me. we both like girls and star wars so it’s nice that we have a shift together :)” like god damn it brett you’re so respectful and thoughtful with your goddamned words
the posts that are like “straight men can never love a woman like a lesbian” are cool jokes and stuff but u gotta really appreciate dudes who have no idea what its like to be gay but try their best to try and relate. “we both like hot ladies” you know what, ryan? that’s close enough. i appreciate that.
Ah, that’d do it. Do you have a way to cover the mirror up with a towel or taped-on paper? You could try turning the mirror into a paper surface to draw on instead.
Trump is notorious for his “filing system”: when he is finished with a
piece of paper, he tears it into tiny pieces and throws it away, which
is fine if you’re a CEO (maybe), but is radioactively illegal under the
Presidential Records Act, because the President works for the public,
and is required by law to archive their official papers and save them
for public scrutiny.
White House staffers gave up on trying to explain this to Trump, who
just kept on tearing up everything, from official letters from Senators
to letters from constituents to notes and other paperwork.
The staffers – paid nearly $70,000 year – ended up with full-time jobs
retrieving scraps of paper from Trump’s trash-can and piecing them back
together with clear tape so they can be filed in the National Archives.
Some of these staffers were eventually fired; they’ve spoken to
Politico about their year in the Trump administration as paper-tapers.
Animal rights people are the radical ones who don’t think animals should be raised for meat/products, kept as pets, or kept in zoos, the ones who compare artificially inseminating cows to rape and slaughtering pigs to the Holocaust. This is where you get the really loud vegans.
Animal welfare people are the ones who want animals to be treated well and not abused. They may be vegetarian or vegan due to the state of current farming and how animals are treated, but don’t generally have problems with the idea of eating animals/products. They’re probably against Seaworld and its treatment of animals, but don’t have anything against well-run zoos.
Basically, animal rights are the screamy loud unreasonable ones, animal welfare are the people who are just “hey, we shouldn’t do factory farming and keep orcas in tiny puddles”.
An action being “punishable by a fine” basically means “legal for rich people”.
Oh wow. That’s…
I once dated a rich guy and if I said “Hey it’s illegal to drink on the street” he’d respond with “Nah, it just costs £150″, or “You can’t park here!” “Yeh I can it costs £35″ like… literally… that’s how he saw fines, it was just how much you paid to do the thing.
Reminds me of the double red lines in London. They exist because rich people kept parking on double yellow lines (which mean “no parking” in the UK) and then just paying the fines. So London started putting double red lines on major roads. If you park on double red lines, they don’t give you a ticket. They tow your car away and crush it.
