I don’t know who needs to hear this, but I just want to say, as someone who used to wear acrylic nails for at least a decade, they are such a fucking sham.

Growing up I was always fed the idea that nails meant you didn’t have to do anything? Which was supposed to be considered a good thing? Like “teehee I don’t have to do anything I’m so spoiled” but they try hiding from you how fucking fun it is to actually do things.

Ever shoot a gun? Fucking phenomenal. Hit your target? Feels fantastic. That aside, being able to take a gun apart, study how it works, and put it back together? Absolutely amazing.

Ever use a fucking power saw? Power tools in general are invigorating. Built a whole work bench in the detached garage. Talk about something being actually empowering.

I had to stop playing piano because of my nails. Who chooses fake nails over literally getting to create art?! Crazy. I can’t believe once upon that time I actively made that choice.

Gardening? Couldn’t imagine trying to do that with nails. Getting dirt stuck in there for days? Would feel horrible. Feeling self conscious when you go to get them fixed because of how dirty they are. I forgot how much I loved playing in the dirt as a child. I love the smell of soil. It makes you feel more connected to the Earth. I talk to my plants, I read to my plants. I love my plants.

Book Nooks! They’re models you get to put together. Super small parts. Glue needed. So far put together a model greenhouse and a model library. Would literally be impossible with fake nails. You feel so accomplished when you’re done. Takes about 6-8 hours to do most of the time. There’s electrical you get to put together. Sometimes you’re twisting wires together trying to get the lights on lol. Love those things.

Getting to work with your hands feels great. It’s freeing. Fake nails completely strips you of that. When I had nails on I had problems simply trying to button a blouse…. that’s depressing to think about.

I know basically all radfems know of this. So this is more for the cryptos. The lurkers. The ones in the shadows who are curious. Who want to learn.

Im telling you. You don’t know what you’re missing.

Happy International Women's Day! I admire you all! I feel blessed to be part of this movement that brings together so many brave, determined and kind women❤️

All the women I follow are so sweet, fierce and awesome 🩷💞💕

He deserved it

I feel like a lot of people still don’t know this even though Valerie Solanas has become kind of an icon but she shot Andy Warhol because he stole her play, which she considered her masterpiece, and the Warhol estate still owned the play until 2014. He also only paid her 25 bucks to appear in a movie. Not saying he deserved to get shot but her grievances against him were legitimate. He was an asshole who exploited other artists.

Every time 🤦🏽‍♀️

I will never support a terrorist organization. I know that the women of Gaza are suffering. And I sympathize with them just as I do with the women of Israel. Between Israel and Palestine, I will choose Israel, because the Palestinians will rely on Sharia and enslave Jewish women, renew their misogynistic laws and turn into a second Afghanistan. I don't support Hamas. I cannot take seriously a video where fat men from Gaza claim that they are suffering from hunger. I can't take a video seriously where a child who died of starvation is buried by a dozen fat men.

Но мужчины есть мужчины. Я также осуждаю действия израильских солдат, когда они причиняют вред палестинским женщинам. Свободу палестинским женщинам от ХАМАС! Безопасность еврейских женщин от ХАМАС!

As a Jewish woman I’m usually hesitant to post anything political with regards to the Israel-Gaza war but what happened with the hostages bodies in gaza is sickening. a baby and small child were strangled to death, and their mother’s body was not returned. btw that’s only one of the horrible deaths that happened to the hostages. people who think they’re freedom fighters are delusional, freedom fighters do not kill civilian babies with their bare hands

here is my stance on the war:

Jews and Palestinians should live in harmony in Israel in an ideal world. two state solution would work too, if only hamas cared about that (spoiler alert, they don’t. they just want to kill every israeli and jew, really anymore not supportive of them, they can find) (it would only work with a government that cares about its people) (best case could be just Israel with a unified government filled with people of different backgrounds)

Fuck Hamas

The innocent palestinian civilians deserve to live peacefully and safely (only way that can happen is without hamas)

The hostages should be returned. the Israeli government should have gotten them back ages ago, and it’s disgusting that this has gone on for so long

This is a very complicated and delicate situation

again, fuck hamas

the fact that people unfollowed me btw after I reblogged anti-hamas posts is very telling. continue to unfollow me, people who support hamas

They… literally contradict themselves…

Yes, gender ideology is the denial of female oppression. TRAs hate admitting this.

a lot of serial killers got their violent sexual sadism from porn. they even admit to being addicted to it and that it affected them but there are still those who like to deny the harm that porn produces.

One cannot be decolonial and religious.

All religions are rooted in colonialism, especially abrahamic ones (Christianity, Judaism and Islam).

Religion is one of the oldest forms of social control in the world. The cultures and communities that have been destroyed due to domination is abominable.
