It's the writer's job to convince the audience, not themselves, that the character is alive. Like a non-electric Turing test

3 good things, none of which are cessation of a negative

1. A good burger, with chips and coleslaw on the side
2. Hot bath
3. The ability to choose nice things to do in your free time

i am begging men that if you want to ask a random girl out please just DO IT and don't sit there "not staring" and being creepy and making her feel hyper-perceived for 40 minutes as she waits for you to go away

trust me she knows

shoot your shot & hit or miss & be on your way politely

I think this might have triggered my maternal instincts because now I'm crying lmao

Women and femmes of all forms, please don't ever hesitate to ask me for anything. I'm best at giving skincare/makeup/hair/clothing hacks & suggestions, but I'll help you with anything I can if you need it!

I love being a girl. I love seeing other girls find themselves. I love seeing us thrive and fight and become who we want to be in life regardless of our ups and downs and what people tell us we should be.

Women are pretty damn cool creatures on this floating rock.

The "inspiration" I give abled people is to diminish their own problems and those of my friends. Abled people will use me surviving my struggles as a way to say other disabled people don't need accessibility. My existence does not negate anyone else's disability or need for accessibility.
