ohh my god a teenager online posted something that reveals a less than perfectly developed understanding of the world around them? should we tell everyone? should we screenshot it and share it everywhere so we can pat ourselves on the back for being so much wiser than Kids These Days? should we invite a boomer comic artist

you will never convince me that a middle schooler with no rights who gets flustered talking about sex is the heart of the global rise in reactionary sentiment we’re dealing with right now and not senator john segregation who drafts 300 anti trans laws a day and wants that middle schooler to die in childbirth

i think one of the sweetest part of loving someone, is having their wellness prioritised as if it were your own. it becomes natural to share whatever goodness you have or do, with them. like “oh!! this chocolate is so good! I’m going to save a piece for her!” or instinctively saying their name in every prayer you make. instead of thinking or doing good for only yourself, you do it for them too. love merge people in such a way, that they become not only a part of our life but an extension of us.

i dont know exactly how to articulate this in a way other people havent but everything is too fast now. 24/7 news cycle, online focuses that last for hours instead of months or years, songs written just so ten seconds can go viral. movies and books churned out to meet some nebulous income quota. idk. im motion sick

you know when you watch an older movie and its actually edited well. like the shots are long and the cuts are spaced and you can actually breathe….yeah

Good news, Missouri has terminated its ban on gender affirming care for adults due to the fact that they did not feel confident they could defend it in court. I think that’s a pretty good sign.

The youth ban is still in effect, but as Erin Reed says in this tweet now attorneys don’t have to split their resources and just tackle the youth ban.

two very good fictional relationship dynamics:

1. i would find you and love you in every universe. our love is inevitable and transcends reality as we understand it

2. this is the only universe where the dominos fell exactly right so that we could fall in love. we have something unique and we have overcome so much to get here

This is what I tried to explain to US platforms like Patreon when they suspended my account for having a nude statue as the background image: I live in Europe, I can go and see a nude statue within a 5 minutes walk. Children can see them, they’re not in some 18+ container. I will never understand those policies.

DO NOT VOLUNTEER TO BE A CO-SIGNER OR GUARANTOR FOR SOMEONE ON TUMBLR.

I just saw a ‘mutual aid’ post going around where instead of asking for donations, the person was asking someone to be a “guarantor” - also known as a “co-signer” - for their rent.

DO NOT DO THIS.

I am all for mutual aid. I think credit scores are a scam designed to fuck poor people. I get it. I do. BUT. Being a guarantor/co-signer for someone basically means that if they don’t pay what they owe, for whatever reason, their landlord, bank, creditors, etc. can and will come after you for the full amount.

It seems like such an easy way to help someone. You don’t need to pay any money, just lend them your name and good reputation so they can get permission to borrow and spend their own money. It feels like you’re getting one over on the shitty capitalist system and using your privilege of good credit/income to help someone else.

But it is a HUGE risk. Do not do this. All it does is give that shitty system more ways to get their hooks into you and create tons of problems for you down the line.

You can really fuck yourself over in the long run by getting tangled up in a financial situation like this. Even co-signing for someone in your life who you trust, like a sibling or a parent, can be really risky. No matter how much you trust someone not to purposefully leave you holding the bag, now you’re on the hook if they end up with financial problems neither of you anticipated.

Do not co-sign for another person’s loan, car, rent, etc. unless you are able and prepared to pay the full amount or subject yourself to the mercy of whatever that person gets themselves into.

ESPECIALLY do not do this for someone on the internet, where scams are rife. Do not share your personal information with people online and NEVER allow someone else to use your personal information for their finances.

Here is an article with more information.

I… I can’t believe this is actually a thing that’s happening. Babies, PLEASE don’t cosign for someone on social media! Even if it’s someone you trust, it can go tits-up real fast. We talk about it in this episode of the podcast:

Season 1, Episode 3: “My Parents Have Bad Credit. Should I Help by Co-signing Their Mortgage?” 

Financial and legal contracts are something that does not get covered in most educations, so I’m not shocked that this is an issue these days. A lot of people are just like “okay whatever… sign the paper let’s get this over with” because you have to sign to do whatever thing. But listen to the OP. Don’t cosign, or be a guarantor for anyone unless you’re ready to pay their rent/mortgage/car payment/electrical bill/loan etc. That’s essentially what you’re saying you’ll do if they default. 

I really wish they’d require a course in your senior year of high school on loans, contracts, insurance, and all that shit. Teach it in economics or something. The world has gotten so much more complicated in the last thirty years, and even parents don’t have the knowledge to teach their kids about some of this stuff.
