The fact that you’re still here proves your incredible strength. It doesn’t matter if you cry or have a breakdown every day. You are deserving of life. I love you and I’m proud of you.
Part of adulting is having your bed in the center of the wall instead of in the corner.
why… is this………….. true…………………
You can pry my Corner Bed out of my cold, dead hands.
reblogging again because i realized this is another one of those things where “adulting” and “financially secure” are conflated
because centering your bed in the room is a thing that happens when it is solely a Bedroom–when you don’t have to fit your computer set up in there, your favorite furniture, your space and materials for any hobbies you have, etc. and that only happens when you have other rooms to devote to those things.
having to confine all your possession to one room is something teenagers have to do (because their parents have claim to the rest of the house.) supposedly when you grow up, you get your own space and get to spread out and then you can have the Bedroom
but that doesn’t happen if you’re stuck in a small space with multiple roommates
it’s crazy that im alive to witness major effects of climate change. like it always seemed super vague and it was always ‘the polar bears won’t have anywhere to live’ but this shit is going to fuck everything up bigtime.
Most people don’t realize how serious it is. We’ve only got 50 years worth of resources left, if we keep going the way we are, and honestly, that’s optimistic. Aside from that, we’ve already gone over the calculated “point of no return”, so even if we immediately start sucking gasses out of the atmosphere and stop all transport and agriculture, we’re going to see oceans rise, sea life die, we’re going to be crammed into smaller land areas, places like Melbourne will be underwater, and the fallout will probably send us into an ice age anyway (long story, but basically the ice melts, cold water sinks, the ocean flow responsible for thermoregulation of the planet is interrupted, cue ice age).
I can already see it now. Forget the hurricanes for a moment:
-Hay isn’t growing at the right time. Last year, no one got good hay where I live, because the weather (which has been in the same pattern during hay season for as long as I’ve been alive) was whacked out.
-None of my animals grew coats correctly, because the weather is just all wrong, and they don’t know what season they’re in.
-We’re getting new temperature records globally; basically, all weather is starting to change already
-Where I live, there are always two weeks where we see echidnas everywhere, and then we don’t see them the rest of the year. that is, until last year, when we barely saw them, spaced throughout several months.
-Let me reiterate, the animals cannot tell what season it is because climate change is altering weather patterns that have been here for as long as anyone can remember
-We also have more acidic rain due to all the gasses, which is why we’ve got so many statues and whatnot corroding even though they haven’t changed for thousands of years
-We had a tornado start to form in Melbourne. That’s unheard of.
We have the technology to slow down climate change. If we want to survive for more than 50 years, we need to act now. NOW. We need to put in place all the technologies we have, and pour money into more scientific research.
And why haven’t we? Because politicians earn money from oil companies and don’t care about the future of the planet, because they’re not going to be here in 50 years anyway.
Stop teaching children that there is only one person out there meant for them. Let it be easier for people to let their toxic relationships go without fear of losing “The One”.
I was giving good advice
Reaching into epiphanies
But it was around the
3rd syllable of the 45th word
I realised that I was giving
The advice I should’ve been taking
And all of a sudden it didn’t
Seem like such good advice at all
- I should listen to myself more often. Maybe I’ll over expose to reduce a reaction.
