Basic Fucking Kindness

activism "look at how nasty humanity is, we're not worth saving, mother nature is trying to wipe us out i love how apathetic observes enable my preventable violence"

unscheduled reminder for those who use binders: you are supposed to have at least one day every week of not wearing it, at all. here is a reminder, also, that the moment where it starts to hurt should be the moment you take it off and let your body rest for a few hours

nature "treated with neonicotinoids [...] do not buy plants treated with neoniconoids. bees take the pollen back to the hive and feed it to the brood"

self compassion, mental health "the version of you right now is deserving of love"

boundaries, self compassion "you are not required to set yourself on fire to keep other people warm"

body "reasons to hit the gym that arent patriarchal beauty standards:"

labels, lgbt, neurodivergency " 1. labels exist to help people understand things about themselves and others 2. you arent obligated to use labels you dont find comfortable or helpful, even if others try to press them on you"

self compassion, society, body "do i like my legs smooth? or do i just want to wear shorts without getting weird looks? do i need support? or am i just uncomfortable when people stare at my nipples? do i like long hair? or am i just worried about appearing less femenine? would it be so scary to not care at all?"

unscheduled post family, socialization, abuse "holiday rules:"

mental illness, socialization, invisible problems "depressed person: [exists] person thats never experienced clinical depression before: have you tried doing this extremely long list of things that you definitely dont have the energy to do to cheer up?"

labels "something people really need to accept is that fluidity is present in everyone. you may not identify the same way you did five years ago, one year ago, even last week"

discrimination, minorities "you dont get to decide that a group of people dont face any discrimination because you dont think they do"

boundaries, socialization " "you only got one family" yeah you only got one appendix too but when it fucks with your health you cut that bitch out of your life"

self compassion "in a society that profits from self doubt, loving yourself is a rebellious act"

socialization, boundaries, relationships "if you ever date an asexual person be sure to get the specifics of their asexuality because the level of comfort is different for all of us [...] permission once is not permission forever no matter your sexuality"

housing "millenials are spoiled! should i pay rent or eat? [...] ALWAYS CHOOSE YOUR RENT"

boundaries, socialization "you can love someone AND put space between you you can forgive someone AND refuse to let them back in you can have boundaries AND keep people close you can put yourself first AND give back to others life is not black and white"

body, socialization, society "fat shaming children does not create thin adults. it creates adults who have a really messed-up relationship with their bodies"

boundaries, socialization "its okay to outgrow things and people that keep you stuck"
