Hey Remember When People Were Like "eugenics Is Bad" And Everyone Agreed? Hey Remember When People Were

True lmaoooo

there is NOTHING like the rage of searching for a post you KNOW is on your blog with a highly specific phrase and then not only can this website not find it but tumblr says something fucking stupid like ‘please don’t be mad. please’

I mean not only did Oscar canonically choose to stop on his way to put his things in his locker just to watch Lando, gentle blush dusting his cheeks, he was especially fond because Lando and little kids is so natural, also because Oscar of all people knows Lando struggles with reading so maybe he even hovered for help??, and was so proud because Lando did so well??, and then mouthing “ignore me” and being lost in watching Lando, then simply having to speak and say something sweet, because Lando’s reading kind things about himself and Oscar simply has to chime in, because of course Lando lights up and his voice travels into that giddy happy register and they both just smile into each others faces The Way They Do because shared happiness is so easy for them and jfc we rly just saw Oscar wanting to stare at Lando lovingly while asking not to have his cover blown there is no predecessor for this they’re just inherently soft and sweet and bashful about each other fuck!!!!!

i started giggling to myself everytime i think about them

Some women are conditioned to be fragile and weak, and to believe that it's a sin to outperform a man. Her feminism would involve allowing women to be strong.

Some women are expected to be strong at times when they can't. Her feminism would involve reassuring her that it's okay to not be strong.

Some neurodivergent people are raised to believe that they're too stupid to ever amount to anything. Their disability activism would involve reassuring them that they're capable.

Some neurodivergent people are raised to believe that they're smart and gifted, and are expected to live up to impossible standards. Their disability activism would involve allowing them to fail, make mistakes, be stupid, etc.

Some children are constantly reminded "you're the child, I'm the adult" in order to deny their autonomy. Their youth rights activism would involve treating them like an adult at times when they feel ready for it.

Some children are treated like adults in order to justify increased expectations or to downplay abuse against them. Their youth rights activism would involve allowing them to be a child.

There is no one-size-fits-all solution to oppression. Each individual person's experience is different. Whatever trauma is caused by their oppression, the activism should focus on undoing it.

big news, friends: tonight i hung out with my cousin who I never see (cousin 1, delightful, heterosexual, I see him once every five years), and he told me that a different cousin (cousin 2) who I haven't seen in like twenty years because cousin 2 is a homophobe and I'm a homo....is currently a firefighter at the lafd and I was like cousin 1. this saddens me deeply. I am devastated right now. and he was like why? and I was like, you see, cousin 1, I'm kind of obsessed with this tv show about the lafd, and now you tell me I have a blood relative who works for the lafd and I can't even text him to ask for inside scoops and he was like wait, wait, my girlfriend and I love that show! Sergeant Athena Grant! and I was like YES OMG. Eddie Diaz is my BOY, and he was like beenado! and I was like beenado!!!! and then he was like have you seen the most recent one and I was like OBVIOUSLY I've seen the most recent one, and he was like do you think chimney will live, and I was like yes, obviously chimney will live. do you think BOBBY will live, and he was like?????? captain nash is not in danger? and I was like wait for it, man, wait for it. and then i decided to be a Social Scientist so I was like "my second favorite after Eddie is Buck," and he said, unprompted, two things about Buck: 1. "Buck is so funny when he gets sad. He's such a sad boy"

2. "I was really surprised by the bisexual plotline. Like, they did that, and I was like, what are the writers doing? But then they kept going and I was like, you know what, makes sense."

at which point I was like "well who do you think Buck's going to end up with now though?"

and UNPROMPTED he was like "Well, it's gotta be Eddie"

and I was like cackling with joy, obviously, and I was like what makes you think that. like I think that, but why do you think that, and he was like "dude, he's living in his HOUSE." and I was like "he's a renter!!!" and then he was like "and it's so obvious his sister thinks he's in love with Eddie" and I was like "cousin 1, when you're right you're right."

anyway. an evening of joy and good cheer <3
