The entirety of my drinking career was spent housed, either because I was employed or had a partner, and I was no more entitled to that housing than someone whose drinking career is spent on the streets.
if you want to actually start to end homelessness, you need to give homeless people unconditional homes, including when we use them to do drugs or sit around drinking. either housing is unconditional or it isn’t
someone sitting at home alone, an active alcoholic, squandering your charity, drinking all day is better situation than a street homeless alcoholic. someone using drugs in your charity house is better than them doing the same w no shelter
most of you would not like most street homeless people, I definitely don’t and didn’t when I was street homeless. for every one person who uses unconditional shelter to turn themselves around, someone else will do jack shit and very slowly, if ever, work through the issues that made them homeless, will maybe never be able to live independently. still better than street homelessness, still worth doing. ultimately either you believe that shelter should be universal or you don’t
homeless people actually can’t be rehabilitated if you want to end homelessness. we either affirm the right to shelter for the worst drunken, lying, filthy, cheating, self destructive homeless people that exist, genuinely irredeemable wankers, or we concede that shelter is not a right

Look, science may tell us that only females of a fraction of species in one genus of mosquito can carry malaria. That out of thousands of species of mosquito just thirtyish can give us diseases. But consider: I totally read once that mosquitos are literally useless and don't contribute anything to the ecosystem. No I don't know where but I read it. How does it work that an animal could evolve thousands of species and never contribute anything to anything? I don't know, what, are you in the pocket of big mosquito

I remember a year ago, someone at my school did a presentation about antisemitism dogwhistles on social media. It was extremely extensive and powerful. Afterwards, me and a friend were walking back, and I ask what they thought, and they tell me:
"I wish they had talked about LGBTQ+ rights in it, though."
They wanted to have a mention of homophobia. In a lecture about antisemitism.
Of course homophobia is a real thing. Of course there are definite intersections between the two forms of discrimination. Its just that, when there was a presentation about the daily hurt a marginalized group faced, they thought to themselves: 'Why wasn't this about me?'
Remember: If a group is talking about their issues, do not compare them to another group. Its not cool.

It’s my opinion that like if a white supremacist/Nazi is going to be reformed. They need to do so willingly. The only times I’ve heard of successful rehabilitation of fascists is when they made the conscious decision to no longer be one anymore and seek atonement. People who try to like hug and change fascists that don’t want to change are fucking morons

AND ANOTHER THING that I thought was really cool about Lisa Frankenstein: How heavily they leaned into that sweet sweet 80s vibe. The at-home tanning bed. The lingo. The hair crimper.
When Lisa finds him, the first thing that the creature stops to inspect is her dad's shoe phone. Who has a shoe phone anymore? Literally nobody. Most people don't have a landline anymore. Sure, it's a foreign object for the creature because the last time he was above ground was at least a hundred years ago. But it's also a jarring and unfamiliar sight to US as viewers. The 80s are a distant decade in the year 2024, many of these now obsolete or dated elements that make up Lisa's everyday life are almost novel, or even alien to look at through our eyes.
And I just think that's a really neat way to experience things as a viewer. We get to immerse and adjust to her world. We experience the unfamiliar along with the creature.

Tips for Cluster B Anger
~ coming from someone who has BPD and a psychology special interest Have you been feeling like your anger is completely uncontrollable and all encompassing? Do you feel like your anger controls you more than you control it? Me too! But here are some things I've found to be helpful: - Taking notes. Write down triggers for what causes your anger episodes (as well as other episodes e.g sadness or paranoia) once you come down from it and start looking for a pattern. Not only will this help you to slow down and self reflect, you can begin to either avoid those triggers or find ways to regulate the effects. - SLOW DOWN. If something is making you want to hurt someone else or yourself, slow the FUCK down. Push against the grain, step back and let yourself have a good cry or scream into a pillow. Do whatever you can to (healthily) process the emotions, no matter how long it takes, before making major decisions. - Avoid self harm, substances or unhealthy habits like disordered eating or emotional self harm. It's so tempting, believe me, but it will only serve to make things worse. You might feel like you want it to get worse now, but in the future, you WILL regret it. If you start feeling these urges, refer to the urge surfing diagram below this. - Get outside advice. Think you're splitting but you can't tell? Run the situation by a close friend or loved one and see how they feel about it. Try to relay it with as little bias as possible and see if they agree with the decision you're about to make or if you perhaps need to reevaluate some things. - Take care of your heart. I know this is cliche, but a good sleep schedule, hearty food consumption habits, hydration, exercise routine and mental health care go a long way in helping you succeed in the above tips. You are struggling with an illness, and ill people need as much care as possible. Become your own parent. This works for anger in all Cluster B personality disorders, as well as with autism spectrum disorders! Urge surfing:

If I ever got falsely accused of murder those body language analysis true crime YouTube channels would have like a 7 hour video on why it’s undeniable I’m a psychopathic murderer and I know it
