worst part about getting angry is how much it makes you want to be mean

Draw badly. Write nonsensically. Embroider messily. Burn what you bake and cook. Get paint everywhere. Read half a book. Lose your mind for a bit. Plant things. Have faith in the process. Abandon 70 wood-carving projects. Get a kit and do some of it and never return to it. Get comfortable with sucking and losing motivation. Continue to create with reckless abandon.

“I know I’ve told this story before, but my abusive ex refused to let me take birth control. I was on the pill until he found them in my purse. I went to the Student Health Center—they were completely unhelpful, choosing to lecture me about the importance of safe sex (recommending condoms) instead of actually listening to my problem. Then I went to Planned Parenthood. The Nurse Practitioner took one look at my fading bruises and stopped the exam. She called in the doctor. The doctor came in and simply asked me: “Are you ready to leave him?” When I denied that I was being abused, she didn’t argue with me. She just asked me what I needed. I said I need a birth control method that my boyfriend couldn’t detect. She recommended a few options and we decided on Depo. When I told her that my boyfriend read my emails and listened to my phone messages and was known to follow me, she suggested to do the Depo injections at off hours when the clinic was normally closed. She made a note in my chart and instructed the front desk never to leave messages for me—instead, she programmed her personal cell phone number into my phone under the name “Nora”. She told me she would call me to schedule my appointments; she wouldn’t leave a message, but I should call her back when I was able to. And that was it. No judgment. No lecture. She walked me to the door and told me to call her day or night if I needed anything. That she lived 5 blocks from campus and would come get me. That I wasn’t alone. That she just wanted me to be safe. I never called her to come to my rescue. But I have no doubt that she would have come if I had called. She kept me on Depo for a year, giving me those monthly injections in secret, helping me prevent a desperately unwanted pregnancy. I cannot thank Planned Parenthood enough for the work they do.”

I know I’ve reblogged this before, but it bears re-reblogging (?).  This is how you respond to abuse, this is how you give people control over their bodies/uteruses, this is how you act as a generally non-judgmental and compassionate person.  I love this story so fucking much.

Hey this isn't my usual thing, but

This is (ordinarily) a Hollow Knight youtuber I like; I get that y'all probably give negative shits about Some Guy From Youtube but you presumably give a shit about copyright trolling and labor rights, so, to contextualize: They made a video concerning the treatment of contract workers by Valnet inc., the parent company of known dogshit SEO Mills ScreenRant and GameRant, among numerous others. Valnet are the subject of numerous individual suits, as well as a Class Action complaint in California for misclassification of workers- a practice which would allow them to avoid compliance with labor regulations

Their reward for this piece of investigation was having the video removed due to a transparently specious copyright claim, in the usual "YouTube simply cannot guzzle enough corpo smeg" manner They have made the understandable decision not to reupload the video, since three copyright strikes = a deactivated channel, a nearly irretrievable loss

Therefore, I am sharing this little incident because if there's one thing I love, it's the Streisand Effect nailing shitbirds to the wall as much as possible because they just can't fucking help themselves when it comes to abusing labor and/or power

Therefore reblogs are appreciated

Horniness is not intrinsically less pure than any other human motivation
