WAKE UP BABE NEW HACKEARNEY PRE-ORDER JUST DROPPED
Initially commissioned/sponsored by the ever-lovely @spookyscaryscully, who was kind enough to let me open pre-orders of them for everyone else! You can buy them on my store!
PRE-ORDER ENDS MAY 31ST!
These will not be permanently stocked in my store, so stock will be very limited once the pre-order ends, if there is any leftover at all - so if you want one or both of them, the pre-order is your best bet!
We need to have a nomination for âStupidest thing Tumblr.com has ever believedâ and just move into an official Top 10 List.
For my nominations, Iâm putting up:
If you eat a chocolate bar a very specific way, you will break physics and get infinite chocolate.
or
It is impossible that you spelled âBerenstain Bearsâ wrong and is, instead, more likely that the universe fractured into separate, overlapping realities in the last 20 years.
I canât decide which is more beautiful. Itâs why we need a vote.
enough reclaiming slurs, I think in 2023 we should reclaim nascar. they banned the confederate flag on all properties & their stance on lgbtq+ isnât just performative bc in 2013 they fined a driver 10k for using a homophobic slur, condemned indiana in a statement for an anti lgbt law, and partnered w carolinaâs lgbt+ chamber of conference in 2022. nascar was founded by anti-cop moonshiners/bootleggers who drove suped-up fords to out-run the police. #yaaascar
If youâve never been all that disobedient before, you can and should start really, really small. For example, you can wear the slightly revealing or gloriously trashy-looking garment that makes your mom roll her eyes and sigh despondently every time she sees you put it on. You will feel judged and disapproved of when you put it on, but that is fine. Your goal is to sit with the uncomfortable feelings and continue with your desired behavior anyway.Â
Saunter down the steps in that highlighter-yellow Garfield crop top with your chest hair flowing over the neckline, and harness as much courage as you can muster. Itâs okay if you feel like a beacon of sin. Just keep it moving. Your emotions are not the target here. Your behavior is. You can feel however you are feeling in the moment so long as you keep acting like youâre free.Â
Do you have a favorite TV show that a partner or roommate vocally hates? Try watching that show around them without apologizing or defensively joining them in mocking the program. At first, you probably wonât be able to enjoy the show while in their presence. Youâll feel self-conscious about everything they find annoying or cringe-inducing about the show, and so focused on their reactions that you canât relax. Thatâs okay. Allow those feelings of embarrassment and guilt to exist and pass through you without giving up. In time, you will be able to ignore these reactions more, and enjoy the activity.Â
You want to see the needle of discomfort moving down just a little, like Linkâs body temperature meter in Tears of the Kingdom when he puts on a breathable outfit in a hot climate. Youâre not gonna go from roiling hot to frosty cold in an instant. But after a certain point, you wonât be actively in pain anymore. Things are just gonna slowly suck less, bit by bit, until they are finally okay. Thatâs true of most major life adjustments, I find.Â
Probably the best way to develop self-advocacy skills while growing in your distress tolerance is simply by telling other people no. Do this without explanation or hedging. Nitpicky aunt wants to hear all about your dating life? âNo, I donât want to talk about that.â Unreliable ex-friend wants you to do them the tiny favor of moving their entire home gymnasium into a new third story walk-up? âNo, Iâm not available.â Manipulative shift supervisor wants to cajole you into sticking around for another three hours to close? âNo.âÂ
As many advice columnists smarter than me have already intoned, ânoâ is a complete sentence. âNoâ requires no explanation. âNoâ is not subject to debate. âNoâ can be repeated over and over like a broken record if a disrespectful person acts like they canât hear it. And you can walk away at any time to make your ânoâ physical and impossible to argue with, when someone has proven they donât respect your boundaries.Â
