but which came to mind after reading this post - the post is responding to & arguing against the assertion that in titanic, it is grody that all of the neat things rose does in the movie happen because she meets jack and he tells her what to do. the post has a number of counterexamples/reasons some of these situations aren’t that cut-and-dry (…erm, drowning pun not intended), and...

“Oh no,” she assured him hastily. “No, I’m not really- I’m just a whole lot of different simple people.”

I should read some Fitzgerald. This intrigues me. :)

and i am just slow on the uptake, which: often true! but: it recently dawned on me that the whole snape/lily thing in the last harry potter book is… actually total bullshit! snape is basically just a Nice Guy (tm)! and i admit - i was completely taken in by it at the time! i was like, this chapter is so beautiful, this reveal is so wonderfully done, brb crying! but then i thought...

I’m just gonna keep going on about this, feel free to ignore me. I just can’t get behind what amounts to intergenerational hazing. Everyone’s a little nuts when they’re teenagers (no offense intended, teens, it’s just true), but that doesn’t mean they’re stupid, or ignorant. How do you expect people to grow up learning to think for themselves if you’re creating a...

Do you ever just feel like you’re not cut out to deal with life?
And everyone else is? And what on earth is the matter with you? Was everyone else given valuable life lessons while you weren’t paying attention? Why are things so hard?
Yes. Yes, yes, yes, yes, YES.
And then I realize that everyone else is struggling too, they just hide it well enough that it doesn’t show....

I’m not going to bother reading through the 4,000 plus notes, but I’m willing to bet that 3,900+ people reblogged this post without considering 10-02-2001.

It started off kind of well, which led me into a false sense of complacence.
1. Our reps will wait their turn in medical offices and refrain from waltzing in front of ailing patients because they think their time is more valuable. They will NOT get their own room in medical offices with laptop stations, ice water, and swivel chairs or chatter about the stress of sales quotas on their...

Check it out, it’s kind of funny. Funnier if you’re not the person it happened to, I think.
Remember, taking care of yourself is a feminist act.

.... why? That's a lot to put on one person, and truthfully, it's nearly impossible. And some people aren't cut out for monogamy. If it's not hurting anyone else, why should society dictate how people live their lives?

You know, mulling over the numerous times I have been lectured over the last few days by pedantic people who assumed that I was ignorant or unaware of something when in fact I was very much aware and was approaching it from a different perspective, a place of different knowledge, including my own knowledge of myself…
I cannot help but note that there is something deeply interesting...
