ANTI-CAPITALIST AFFIRMATIONS

• i am allowed to spend my time creating things, even if they are not beautiful.
• there is no such thing as a “real job.” all forms of work are real and valid.
• there is nothing that i need to accomplish to be worthy. i am already worthy.
• doing nothing is good for my soul.
• i am not defined by what i produce.
• my worth cannot be measured by my paycheck, my job title, or a list of professional or academic achievements.
• i do not need to monetize my hobbies, it is enough to spend time doing something i love.
• i will not let society decide what success looks like. i can define what successful life looks like for me.

I really feel tremendous grief for friendships that kind of petered away in the face of life’s currents. There are people with whom I formed deep, unique, vibrant, life-changing connections, and then we had to go our separate ways and it was too hard to maintain long-distance. There wasn’t a fight, it just sort of faded. And I feel like I have more friendships like this than friendships that have endured, so maybe I just have to get used to it. But if grief is all the love we have left over - well, I never did get to finish loving them. I love them, and I miss them, and I probably always will.

*through gritted teeth* you are not a child taking a test with the purpose of getting the highest score, you are an adult trying new things and finding ways to enjoy your life, make mistakes, be a beginner, be mediocre, be where you need to be, be unlikeable, just. be.

this is your reminder to start slow and gradually lean into consistency rather than to change your entire routine one fine day. it’s okay to start wherever and whenever you feel ready. please don’t compare yourself to the highlight reel of people on social media. i promise it’s never too late to work on your goals. you don’t have to make a drastic change just because it’s a new year. time is a social construct and i want nothing more than for you to truly enjoy life at present without worrying too much about the future. you are completely able to achieve goals you have set for yourself, but take it step by step. please avoid burnout and please take rest. wishing you all the best!!

not to be dramatic but the uk is literally slipping into a legit fascist state rn, our rights to free speech are slowly being revoked and literally nobody is talking about it lmao I hate it here

• Internet anonymity possibly being revoked
• rights to peaceful protest no longer a thing, AND what really gets me is the fact that police can arrest you if they THINK you’re going to a protest or being disruptive. you’re disabled and you walk by a protest about disability rights? police can arrest you on suspicion of partaking in a protest. couple of teens hanging out on a street corner? police can arrest you if theyre having a bad day and can say you are suspected of protest.
• stop and search warrants. this goes back to the protest thing. you’ve just been to a DIY store and have bought some DIY equipment. police can now stop and search you with no reason and say you were using that equipment to incite a protest.
• gag orders on the press
• most UK press being in parliaments back pocket and therefore we get no real truth unless its leaked

maybe im going to the worst case scenario but I’d rather do that than be complacent. are you terrified yet?

okay, really bad stuff

what can we do about it? /g

honestly…talk about it. speak up about it and spread the word. minorities are suffering because of these laws and we can’t even protest it right now. make people aware of it and share it. Parliament is trying to slip this through quietly while we’re all distracted so let’s make it harder for them to do it quietly

82 YEARS AGO - BATMAN DEBUTED FOR THE FIRST TIME
Eighty-two years ago on March 30, 1939, Detective Comics #27 hit newsstands, introducing the Caped Crusader for the very first time in a featured story called “The Case of the Chemical Syndicate.”

“And for all that fierce exterior, I’ve never met anyone who cared as deeply about his fellow man as Bruce Wayne.” 
- Amanda Waller, Justice League Unlimited, Season 2 Episode 13 (2005)

“If you cant imagine your batman comforting a scared kid, thats not Batman. Thats the punisher in a silly hat”

If you need rescuing or help, DON’T FUCKING MOVE. You are so much easier to find when you stay put.

Your most important survival skill is asking for help

Goddamn preach this

Reblogging because (1) it’s still true and (2) the first time this crossed my dash, I discovered Foxes in Love, now one of my favorite online comics.

the true strength of humanity is acting as a group, taking care of each other to do things no single person can do

saying the unfortunate should save themselves is betraying the basic concept of what it means to be human

Pulling yourself up by your bootstraps sure is easier when you actually have boots.
