i really wish “i forgot” could be treated as a legitimate excuse. for a lot of disabled people, it isn’t a testament of being uncaring or lazy – it’s a genuine expression of remorse.
4000 notes makes me think this really resonated with a lot of disabled people

an amazing thought
all trans women look like women. it’s impossible for a trans woman not to look like a woman.
Shoutout to everyone with a “scary” mental illness, to everyone whose mental illness gets thrown under the bus when people are trying to prove that the mentally ill aren’t violent or evil. You deserve all the same respect and love as those with anxiety or depression and I am so proud of you for fighting.
psa “here’s a #suicide hotline with zero context” is so unhelpful and upsetting
i need to know at a minimum if they’re
1. religious-based
2. lgbT-competent
3. risk-reduction or total abstinence
4. going to inform any authorities, call ambulances, that shitjfc shoving a string of numbers at ppl with “this’ll fix it!!!” is so insulting and unrealistic, you have no idea how many folks have been failed by this shit already
moreover: tag your fucking suicide hotlines

Two MSU basketball players raped a woman in the dorms then one admitted to it. Their only consequence was that they had to move out of the dorms. This picture is of me and one other woman holding up this banner during Midnight Madness. Two other brave souls had a banner on the other side for a while before some jerk started playing tug or war with them over it. This was taken before we got booed at by 10,000 people and police escorted from the stadium.
How screwed up are people to boo at this?
Let’s keep reposting this. Rapists should be charged.
how is sport more important than the lives of women?
like honestly baffling.Why wasn’t at least the rapist who confessed arrested? You confess to the crime, you do the time…?
they got mad
Green Day lead singer Billie Joe Armstrong wrote this about his father, who died of cancer on September 1st, 1982. At his father’s funeral, Billie cried, ran home and locked himself in his room. When his mother got home and knocked on the door to Billie’s room, Billie simply said, “Wake me up when September ends.”
So I’d be angry too if people kept this shit up every single year.
New Comic!
Pronouns, right? Super weird little lexical referents.
My site moved to a new host, so everything should be better now! Everything – my site, my comic, my life, my cats, my cooking, my sex. Everything.

Remember when I blindly hated Russel Brand? I fucked up.
“They’re in a better position to judge than I am.”
I think this is how most open minded people who value communication, connection, and are willing to learn from others think.
…Did… Did Russel Brand just explain how to react to being called out on something?
Huh.
