Them: Human Life Begins At Conception And Should Be Protected At All Costs. Not Doing So Is An Abomination

Them: Human life begins at conception and should be protected at all costs. Not doing so is an abomination of God equivalent to murder. ✝️

Me: Believing in your heart that all human life begins with a fertilized egg is fine by me as long as we’re ready to talk about the human embryos that are discarded, forgotten, or otherwise destroyed due to the inherent nature of some fertility treatments. I get having antipathy towards someone because their choices make you feel icky inside and bonus points if you’ve interpreted the bible in ways to justify your position. I believe humans are capable of navigating the whole embryo dichotomy if protecting “life” is really the goal here. But for me, attempting to take away my rights to my body and then forcing me to do things I don’t want to do is a form of abuse and yes, this is the hill I’m prepared to die on 🪦⚖️✌️

If you’re butt hurt and angry about this post, then you should go sit down. Preferably somewhere in the back. ✌️

If a white person hates black people, is he racist? The answer is YES. If a black person hates white people, is he racist? The answer is NO.

If a man hates women, is he a misogynist? The answer is YES. If a woman hates men, is she a misandrist? The answer is NO.

If a heterosexual hates homosexuals, is he homophobic? The answer is YES. If a homosexual hates heterosexuals, is he "hetereophobic"? The answer is NO.

The explanation lies in the words ideology and power. As long as you do not understand the role of these two words, then it means that you will never understand what racism, misogyny and homophobia mean.

I’m telling you, I’m in love with this post 💕

listen. There's a whole mentality shift that needs to happen culture wide here, from the schools to the public infrastructure to pet ownership to the justice system

The proper response to your dog doing a natural behavior you dislike (digging/barking/protecting etc) it to give them an appropriate time and place to engage in that behavior

The proper response to skateboarders damaging infrastructure is to build more and better skate parks, or build skate elements into the public infrastructure on purpose.

The proper response to homeless people sleeping on park benches is to build them houses.

you see how there's like, a commonality at play here?

The proper response to a disruption is to address the root of the disruption directly, not somehow attack the disruption itself -

you don't invent a muffler by swinging a bat at the engine noise, you don't relieve your hunger by punching yourself in the stomach, you don't resolve public unrest by sending armed men to control them and you don't prevent homeless people using bus shelters as a roof by removing the bus shelters.

a whole ass shift in a basic mindset, i'm tellin' you. We need it.

I wish I wanted to be with me as much as you do 🥀

A Boy and a Girl Pt. 2

I unravelled myself so neatly and completely into your hands and afterwards I felt lighter. I was lighter because I lost parts of myself every time I slipped through your fingers. You didn’t just want to touch my softness, acknowledge my depth, or earn my affection. You tried to economize my love and harden all of the softness I showed others. You labeled me a flight risk and vilified my mental toughness whenever it took up space between us. ❤️‍🩹

Because we 👱🏻‍♀️🥷 would be too happy for this Earth 🌍 on this timeline ⏳ in this dimension 💫 so keep circling me until we get there 💞

In another universe, we meet, get married, and live happily ever after.
