this cultural/social moment affirms for me that the work of the remainder of my life is to learn to live slowly and in harmony with the present moment. there is no other project.

You gently run your hand through the rack. You can feel it—pure cotton, rich wool, Irish linen. The plump buttonholes are handsewn; the buttons attached with a firm shank. You flip the price tag over. It's affordable

You buy the jacket and go home, which is only 15 mins away. Your apt is $600/month

WHEN THERE’S TREASURE BEHIND THE WATERFALL: Oh wow. Yes, very clever! Waterfall treasure! No one’s ever done that before. Lazy jackass

WHEN THERE’S NO TREASURE BEHIND THE WATERFALL: Wow. Too stuck-up to put treasure there huh? Too much of a fucking ICONOCLAST for that? Piece of shit. FUCK you

apparently that’s our fault too, according to “montrealer mike,” who just yelled at me on reddit for pointing some of this out

yeah someone got kidnapped two blocks from my house yesterday but the problem is definitely that i didn’t personally do enough to change the laws sooner

i’m not saying it’s not true i’m saying you’re low on our priority list at the moment and acting like you shouldn’t be is awfully “american exceptionalism” of you for a superior society

People are VERY huffy and stompy about this post but just as an inside opinion from someone in LC community, It’s hard to believe there is solidarity with the disabled and high risk people who need to avoid covid when our one primary ask is met with accusations that, hey, maybe we’re just CRAZY?

Dear liberals,

If you identify as a leftist who believes in intersectional justice & fighting fascism, please wear a mask in public. It’s one small act of solidarity with the millions living with long Covid - and a reminder that caring for others includes protecting their health

i love to imagine this logic applied to other mitigation tools—trembling at a seatbelt, cowering from a helmet, freezing at the sight of a condom—easy to reveal how laughable a take the idea of masking as an act of fear is.
baddestmamajama.bsky.social
I’m very very tired of “living in fear” being lobbed at maskwearers by people who frequently say they can’t wear one because no one else around them is.

Living in fear is ignoring science and endangering lives and your own health because you’re terrified of not fitting in.

i get that my rhetoric proves his point and i don’t care. i’m not gonna be the one to change minds on this
