Happy International Women’s Day. Reminder That This Day Emerged Out Of Labour Organising And It’s

are you ever just having a normal conversation when you realise that you're a mortal being and that every moment you don't say something weird is another lost opportunity and get overcome with a powerful urge to just do or say something absolutely shocking before it's too late

This meme is inescapable on French insta so I'm posting it here for all to enjoy

btw if we're mutuals and we're both online at the same time, in my mind this is what we're doing

i remember adults telling me, as a kid, to listen to doctors and get my flu vaccine and any shots i could because they remembered Before.

then they started fighting Covid precautions.

i remember adults telling me, as a kid, that the ozone was disappearing and the earth was dying and we needed to recycle and save the planet.

now my parents think climate change is a myth.

i remember adults telling me, as a kid, that racism was a plague, that we had to love and accept everyone, that we should never judge before walking a mile in their shoes.

then they told me that protesting for my Black siblings was wrong.

i remember adults telling me, as a kid, that we needed to give to the poor. working at soup kitchens. making quilts. collecting food and money and supplies. building houses. because it was the christian and just plain right thing to do.

now they look at me, on food stamps with their grandchildren, and lament the "welfare state".

i remember adults telling me, as a kid, that it was easier for a camel to pass through the eye of a needle than a rich man to enter the Kingdom of Heaven and that any rich man, especially an immoral one, should never run our country.

you can guess who they voted for.

i remember adults telling me, as a kid, so very much.

when did they forget?

Happiness Will Come To You.

I love it when people tell me about me because I have no idea who I am

It's three rat thursday
