The projections of the sages are both so comforting yet make the game feel even more lonely, since you canโt really interact with them. I like to think that the real sages can see through the eyes of the projections regardless. ๐
Certain words can change your brain forever and ever so you do have to be very careful about it.
More stories from hell (retail) today I was ringing up this lady and she goes oh I want to do part of this on a gift card and the rest on normal card and I go ok and then she hands me a folded piece of paper. I think oh OK it must be folded around the gift card, right? Wrong. It is a folded sheet of 8ร11 printer paper with โ$40โ written on the inside in ballpoint pen. I go what is this. She says a gift card. I say this is not a gift card. She says yes it is. I say this is a piece of paper with โ$40โ written on it. She says โwell itโs a gift card.โ I say it absolutely is not. I am grinding my teeth. She says well I want to use it. I say you physically cannot do that bc it is a piece of paper. I cannot scan or swipe it. I apologize, as if this is my fault, and not because she is completely insane. I hate it here
Itโs been a hot second since the last time I cried tears of true rage but damn if I didnโt come close today
My coworkers were like wow how are you still in a good mood after that my brother in christ after that interaction I went to the break room and took an extra adderall

I hope I never forget this till the day I die
Am I willing to let solidarity with people actually cost me something?
Would I fight for a cause that doesnโt benefit me, or may even result in me losing privilege?
Do I even know what that privilege actually looks like, in my every day life?
damn
Do it anyway.
THISSSSSS!!!๐ฃ๐ฃ๐ฃ
And, yes, do it anyway!!!๐คท๐พโโ๏ธ๐
Remember y'all, white is not a race, itโs a concept used to other anyone considered not white. Italians, polish people, Jewish people, all were at one point, and still are in many cases considered non white. Dismantling whiteness is not a personal attack on you, itโs an attack on the societal mechanisms of white privilege and the othering of โundesirablesโ

โIf stuff was just handed to me Iโd have no motivation to do anything! Thatโs human nature!โ
No, babe, thatโs depression. Psychologically healthy people are still motivated to do things even when their survival isnโt being actively threatened.[Image description: tweet by Roxi Horror @roxiqt on March 30, 2022 at 11:13 AM:ย โโOh, so you think everyone should just be handed enough money to live?โ lol. lmao. yeah.โ]
okay so like, we allย know that housekeeping in a hotel is a Shit Job, right?
I worked with a woman who was independently wealthy. But she likedย working housekeeping. So she did. And if the manager got bitchy with her, sheโd just shrug and be likeย โOkay, I can quit.โ
Like the manager treated her like a human being because she knew she hadย to because otherwise sheโd lose one of her best workers.
Yes, everyone should be just handed the money to live.
I worked with a lady whoโs husband made more than enough to support them both.ย She just did the retail to have something to do with herself part-time.
Thereโs a lot of people whoโd happily do the same sort of thing.ย Honestly?ย A lot of the jobs we consider โshittyโ jobs?ย Are shitty because the employees are treated like garbage.
If employees werenโt being screwed over by people higher up the chain constantly or being forced to kiss the asses of customers currently shitting all over them, those jobs would by and large be a whole lot more bearable, and appealing to more people!!
Plus rich people are just handed a lot of money, whether they earn it or not, and no one questions that. Only poor people getting money gets interrogated over and over and over again.
Iโd like to add a footnote to this thread that the US gives more money (by way of the income tax reduction) to homeowners than it does to poor people who need subsidized housing.

you dont have to be a parent to understand the horror of walking into a room to discover that the baby crawled out of his crib and onto that pottery wheel you forgot to turn off, and while the baby is spinning around and around, the dog is sitting there all calm, like a person, gently using his paws to fashion the babys soft cartilage head into something a little more modern. it might be the classic tale of bad parenting, but lets see where the dog is going with this
This post is from 2013. It has less than 100 notes. Together we can revive this work of art that tragically ahead of its time. We’re ready for it now

I don’t know who needs to hear this today, but intrusive thoughts are basically your brain’s (sometimes very upsetting) way of saying “If there were two guys on the moon and one of them killed the other with a rock would that be fucked up or what?”
I’ve personally found that adding the “would that be fucked or what?” part in myself really helps put the more disturbing thoughts we sometimes get into perspective. Helps me say “yeah thar sure would be fucked up” and move on with my day.
It’s not not a secret desire, it’s not something that only occurs to you because you’re a bad person. It’s just your brain deciding to process the fact that it knows an uncomfortable thing exists in the world by feeding it to you in an absurd “what if” with you as the main character.
Words cannot describe how happy I am that this resonated with so many people.

i dont claim to be an expert on love but i think theres something to like… ok so my girlfriend got undertale on the switch a while back, right? and she’s definitely not a bad videogamer but it takes practice yknow, esp when youre doing a neutral route and actually fight stuff. so when she got to the hardest bosses i took the controller and beat them for her. not because she couldn’t, but because i love her. and that’s what my brother did when i was a kid playing sonic adventure 2 or whatever, not because i was dumb but because he was good at it and he loved me. and when i want my girlfriend to read something (a post, an essay, a novel) but she’s too tired to actually read so it i read it to her and i do silly voices and she laughs and we have more fun that way. when you hand a water bottle to your friend and they open it without you even having to ask. when you spent a million years fixing the flat tire on your bike and then your dad just takes the tools and does it for you. its not a judgement, it’s just a service. you could do it yourself, but why should you have to when you are loved?

fat little girls deserve the world tbh society is so traumatizing to them
fat little girls can do whatever they want forever actually. btw. it’s law now.
if a fat little girl punches her bullies straight in the nose that’s direct action and also a win for feminism

i just remembered a story my first plug told me. she’s butch and gets mistaken for a man a lot. one time she was walking home when a guy pulled a knife on her and asked for everything in her pockets. panicking, she said “ok” and the guy hearing her voice was like “oh shit, are you a girl?” and she was like “yeah” and he put the knife away and said something like “sorry. i can’t do this to a woman” and left. feminist ally.
it’s a tragedy i couldn’t find this post in time for international women’s day. happy belated women’s day to this guy.
