i was attacked by a flock of geese when i was like 7. they smacked me around with their wings. imagining that but with claws and sharp teeth is very upsetting

every time i request a bunch of books at once i wonder if i'm annoying the chicago public library. what do you mean i have social anxiety
I recommend titles to my local public library. And they almost always acquire them. You should, too. Let's keep our libraries.

thanks to chronic illness communities online for being the only way many other chronic illness patients will ever figure out what the fuck is wrong with them because the medical system sure as hell won't

The cool thing about quitting drinking is it recontextualizes a lot of stuff in your life and then you're like "ohhhh nooooooo" a lot

thinking for no reason about how a decade ago i was standing outside the supreme court as the windsor decision came out, ambivalent about marriage equality being our movement's priority but generally optimistic about where things were going

The Supreme Court using a completely fabricated harm to justify actual harm towards people who face real discrimination is an apt metaphor for modern conservatism
