I tried to not be a Reylo Trash (TM) blog but failed miserably after TLJ. I post SPN and political things occasionally. I rarely tag - if you desperately need something tagged, though, let me know. As long as it isn’t anything super generic, I’ll do my best.
She/her pronouns! Asks are always open and welcomed enthusiastically. Photos are, unfortunately, not usually mine. if you are the owner and want them down, just ask. Check out the numerals to the right for my pages and categories.
misogynists love to mock women who have standards by saying “no man will want you, you’re going to end up old and alone with your cats” but most crazy cat ladies had a husband at some point. men just live shorter lives than women, that’s why there are a disproportionate amount of single women 70+. a woman can have a loving husband and still end up alone in the end because we die like hamsters. lol.
As a wheelchair user I’m trying to reframe my language for “being in the way.”
“I’m in the way,” “I can’t fit,” and “I can’t go there,” is becoming “there’s not enough space,” “the walkway is too narrow,” and “that place isn’t accessible.”
It’s a small change, but to me it feels as if I’m redirecting blame from myself to the people that made these places inaccessible in the first place. I don’t want people to just think that they’re helping me, I want them to think that they’re making up for someone else’s wrongdoing. I want them to remember every time I’ve needed help as something someone else caused.
To the people saying this also applies to fat people - you are not derailing! This is true!!!
i hate it when someone asks me what my favorite work of art is because i can’t say “the one of the woman chilling on the rocks with a dragon lying in her lap and giving off powerful big dick energy” but how else am i supposed to describe it
this is the definition of living deliciously
This is Dragon Resting It’s Head On The Lap of a Woman by Robert Leinweber
cats are great first pets for children because they immediately teach the child the consequences of overstepping boundaries and mishandling animals LMFAO. I grew up in a household with 5+ cats as an only child and every time I would come crying to my mom after I got scratched she would be like “what could you have done differently?”
people buy their kids reptiles and fish and hamsters and then find out they’re extremely delicate creatures that are not ideal for little humans to be responsible for but learning to refill a food bowl, scoop a litter box and dodge claws are things that young minds can grasp relatively easily while also having a furry friend. as much as it makes me cringe to see a toddler dragging a cat around, cats are far better equipped for babysitting than most of the traditional ‘let’s get our 5 year old a little pet’ animals. and it totally depends on the cat too, some won’t stand for it and will spend all their time avoiding the kid and some will willingly put up with being dressed in silly outfits.
forever grateful i was simply too lazy to let the makeup industrial complex get its hooks in me. I was just like im not doing all of that. in fact. im doing none of that
yeah I have political reasons for it now but my original and still most powerful reason is “I am not getting out of this bed one single second before I have to”
what do I have to do to go to events where people are dressed nicely and there are plates of free cheese cubes
Go to the inaugurations of littlely known artists’ exhibitions.
We are always begging for people to attend, there actually is the “hack” to invite your whole family but tell them to pretend they don’t know you. People with money are more willing to buy your work if they think many people likes it, so your mere presence eating our cheese and canapes will be a great helps. Please bring whoever you want too.
Don’t mind if I do!
I will dress like an eccentric weirdo if that helps.
one time a pal of my pals was having a tough time selling their work in an art exhibit and called us up on the last day, ‘us’ being about 8 students who were Very hungry and also bored. We put on the nicest/artsiest clothes we had available (one dude had a legit fancy suit and put on some shades which were Bright Pink he looked like a movie star I swear) and rolled up to the show in pairs, separately. Fine Art Pal has some nice paintings! but nobody is really paying attention to them, so after getting some fancy cheese cubes in a manner that did not betray that we were actually a ravenous pack of starving students we casually wander around the show and then, fairly individually, drift to a stop by their work. Some of us even walked away, then came back a bit later ‘captivated’ by the art (it was actually really nice but recall we were all poor as shit and this was a help hustle). Our group’s interest naturally caught other folks, and eventually there was a small clump of about 15 people musing over this art, and within ten minutes the biggest piece had been snatched up by a shrewd investor. by the end of the exhibit every single piece was sold. It helped pay off the artist’s student debt and on that success they got into another exhibit! They’ve been doing well ever since.
So yes, please attend new artist shows, you get free cheese, get to look at nice art, and you can really help out people who deserve more attention.
