This Is So Cute

This is something everyone seems to forget

a devout christian cis woman has been experiencing increasingly intense cramps during her menstrual cycle. she makes an appointment with a gynecologist.

i’m sorry, the gynecologist says. you have a medical condition that makes pregnancy unsafe for you. i recommend an IUD or other form of long term birth control to ensure you won’t get pregnant.

that’s okay, says the woman. god loves me, god has a plan for me, god will not let me get pregnant.

she goes home and tells her husband and he gets worried.

i don’t know, he says. maybe we should use condoms from now on.

it’s okay, says the woman. god loves me, god has a plan for me, god will not let me get pregnant.

they have sex for the first time since her diagnosis and her husband suggests the morning after pill to be safe.

it’s okay, says the woman. god loves me, god has a plan for me, god will not let me get pregnant.

a month and a half after that she’s missed a period and is feeling nauseous sometimes in the mornings. she takes a pregnancy test and it’s positive. she goes back to the gynecologist.

i’m sorry, the gynecologist says. but it’s very unlikely that you’ll survive this pregnancy. i recommend that you terminate and again take some form of long term birth control.

it’s okay, says the woman. god loves me, god has a plan for me, god will not let me or this child die.

at 20 weeks she goes into early labor. her husband rushes her to the hospital but the baby is born too early to be saved and the woman bleeds out as the doctors try to save her.

when she gets to heaven she asks to speak to god and she tells him:

i don’t understand. i was a good christian. i prayed. i trusted in you. i didn’t get an abortion. why did you let me die

and god says i sent you a warning from the gynecologist, condoms, the morning after pill, and the option for an abortion. what are you doing here?

it's really funny to me that —in my head— bruce actually stopped 'adopting' children after jason. like, he adopted dick and jason. that's it. the rest? oh, the rest adopted him. like, steph literally showed up at his door and wouldn't leave. and tim blackmailed him.

When will my time come? When will my dreams come true? When will I be fulfilled in life?

(I’m talking about my dream of having a raccoon as a pet.)

Gave my pupper a bath

You know what sucks? I used to be an AVID reader, I’d finish like two books in 5 days. Then reading started to be required for my grade and I lost so much motivation to read. The teacher would constantly make jokes about how our generation ‘shouldn’t be on the internet so much and pick up a book.’ I still hate her right now.

Does anyone have any tips on how to break that habit? I don’t just mean book recs, but just general tips on how to help my behavior?

if youre fine with sharing(and can even describe it), what does it physically feel like to have cancer?

Cancer is a terrible disease. Not only does every bone in my body ache, I hear and see things as a permanent side effect of the first chemotherapy regimen I was on. It sucks every bit of energy from you, even though you just want to go out and be a 27 year old again. You physically can barely move.

It robbed me of my job. I was a successful social worker working at a children’s hospital. I can barely feed myself (on the days I wish to have something small) because it stole my financial security. Now I live on disability making $800 a month. I’m not saying this to make people feel bad, I just want people to know how astronomically cancer destroys lives.

It robbed me of stable mental health. Nowadays I just cry because most of my friends prior to cancer have given up on coming to see me. They have given up normal conversations about my interests and made it about pitying my situation, yet not putting in any effort. I now have clinical depression and severe anxiety from going through so much treatment and trauma. My partner broke up with me near the beginning of my journey because they found it was too much. When we talked about it at the end, there was no consideration about how I felt.

It robbed me of doing anything a 27 year old should or could be doing. One of the biggest things it has robbed me of is going to the Eras Tour to see my idol @taylorswift live or meeting her one day. It has robbed me of going to see My Chemical Romance live. It gets to the point where you can’t do anything but lay in your bed and just hope one day things will change.

It has robbed me not just of my physical health, but my livelihood. That’s so important to acknowledge when talking and/or loving someone with cancer. Thank you for asking. ❤️

Why is it when old men are watching tv it’s always the most boring shit? Like at least turn on something that has drama!
