a reminder (sourced from my tumblr)

a tumblr post by me that reads the following (1/3):

i know things seem absolutely hopeless rn, and i'm not gonna pretend like they're not. the world is on fire and people are dying left and right. i know things seem like they'll never get better and that you just wanna end everything, because what's the fucking point anymore.

i've been there more times than i care to admit, but i need you to know something both important and necessary: you need to keep going.

now you're probably thinking "what even is the point of continuing on if i live in a world where people can argue whether or not its ok to kill kids?" it's the same thing that's been keeping me and countless others going for generations: our connection with each other.

a tumblr post by me that reads the following (2/3):

throughout all the bullshit we've been through, we had each other to get us through. from covid to protests and everything in between. we need to keep being there for each other, because if we're not, we'll actually be fucked. that's why you need to keep going. you need to be there for others. they'll be there for you in return. it's the best kind of feedback loop.

think about all the people that matter to you. your friends, your family, your partners. they've been there for you always, whether you know it or not. i know that that's unfortunately not the case for everyone, but there are people who know what its like to have no support group, and in tern, they will be there for you to help you get out of any horrible situation you're in.

what i'm trying to say with this ramble is that no matter what, you have others. others who will help you. others that will enjoy your company. others that will laugh with you. cry with you. be angry with you (in the sense that you will be angry along with them).

a tumblr post by me that reads the following (3/3):

you need to keep going. not just for yourself, but for others. because if you're gone, someone won't be able to make it through. if they make it through, they'll help you make it through.

that's all i wanna say. do me a favor now and tell someone close to you that you love them, and have a long conversation with them over what both of you love or whatever you need to talk about.

thanks for reading. i love you all. stay safe and stay together.

When you are lost in dark waters and can no longer swim, drowning is not the only way. You can accept your loss of power and simply float, and see where the waves carry you. Perhaps that will be the end of your story. Perhaps, unexpectedly, there will be a glimmer of light.

Can we step back for a moment and just take time to think about how genuinely fucking bizarre it is that we see it as normal in our world to have card readers and cash registers in healthcare facilities? Just, like, in general, yknow?

It’s dispiriting that this is what getting a COVID vaccination now looks like to this chronic asthmatic.

if i really had to boil down the thing that bothers me about AI

not just the theft
the job loss
the burning of the earth.

But the people who blindly use/consume it.

AI has revealed the ugly part of society that just consumes the art and expects it and feels entitled to it.

The folks who reject

The Kids Online Safety Act just got 18 more Senate sponsors due to Senator Blumenthal's new push (60 total). The passage percentage didn't change because a house version hasn't been introduced yet. People need to call their Senators and Representatives ASAP!

A lot of being an autistic woman is just crying while wondering why it's so hard to just be a person

🏳️‍⚧️ autumn 🌈 (in part-time job limbo) @impliedrainbows.bsky.social · 1d

who got the cut / how bad is it?
i'm still not used to buzzcut Stu, it's not natural--

🏳️‍⚧️ autumn 🌈 (in part-time job limbo) @impliedrainbows.bsky.social · 1d

the fact that this kind of standard is widely accepted as "the norm" is a fucking travesty in every single possible way

i'm so sorry you have to deal with this shit constantly. idk what to say to help ease this pain, but i hope it will eventually
