oh and also this has been happening for a bit but esp bad this morn, when i see guys with long hair but theyre like very masc it bothers me a lot lol. I think bc its a significant way for me to feel more feminine and then I just worry... i dont know what i worry about
like honestly it could just be me wanting to feel special and being annoyed, but idk there seems to be a bit more to it? but also i could just be rationalizing.
oh and to end people watching on a positive note i really do love seeing other college people that are super adventurous and cute with their style - in some ways I wish and want, but I also just really like being comfy more than anything and don't really feel the need to show off
to others, might just feel nice for myself tho. then again my body has many problems and im going doomer mode again so i will cut it off there lol - now i move to politics cringe that I was thinking about hehe
I dont think i tweet diary'd this but i read the stamped book that my mom has to use for curriculum and meh dude just fr meh meh. i just really hate the new age progressivism shit idk but specifically the passage at the start saying like "this is facts and real shit, not opinion"
which ironically is not very anti-racist considering how it clashes with decolonial critiques of rationality and objective science/ ways of knowing. cringe bro also stop trying to indoctrinate kids fr Ds and Rs just fighting over who gets to exercise authority over children
like first of all it clearly is a PR spin thing as the rest of the thread goes on to show, so just be honest. also if youre gonna do it for this "sensitive" thing then?? i dont see how the others are legitimate.
abolish x discourse sucks and the messaging is awful, so fine change the messaging and form, but dont pick out just your favorite pet thing lmao. In some ways I like it because its direct and if I don't understand something yet it can give me a clear direction like
"we think x thing is bad, even though you might normally think good" and is useful for delineating a concept. but this requires a ton a ton a ton of charity on the interpreters part, and honestly thats probably a lot of the appeal for most people
I'm all down for conveying things in better ways to help people understand, but yeah this thread is really silly. also the suggestion to be more positive is like yes absolutely thats fantastic, but i feel like youre specifically using that to divert from the negative
criticism that makes you uncomfortable. as ive talked about before tho ofc i love love alternative models and ideas, and rarely do i have to defend this, but negative critique important too! their words imply they would probably agree with me, but i dont love the frame
overall just be consistent idrc which way you express it but dont be weird about your pet issue
bc also the people that like this stuff are the same people to jump on libs/normies for recoiling at "abolish school" or "abolish prison" like how dare you not know what i mean!! but also i love my family what do you mean you want to abolish them?? lmao
