TO EVERYONE PASSING OUT HALLOWEEN CANDY TONIGHT
southerntellect:
Tonight, a lot of creatures will visit your door. Be open minded. The child who is grabbing more than one piece of candy might have poor fine motor skills. The child who takes [what seems like] forever to choose one piece of candy might have motor planning issues. The child who does not say “trick-or-treat” or “thank you” might not yet be verbal. The child who looks disappointed...

Material World: Intersex Fertility →
angrybrownbaby:
My daughter was not of woman born. That is a concept that has fascinated people through the ages. My daughter’s gestation was perfectly “natural,” I should point out—but I carried her, and I was never of the female sex; I am a so-called “true hermaphrodite.” I was assigned female at birth, and was living as such when I gave birth to her, but I never identified as a woman,...
I’m home and exhausted and hurt all over and none of that matters because my niece’s tumors are benign.

My 6-year old niece had an 11 hour surgery today to remove a brain tumor. I am still waiting to hear the results.
Not a lot of cope right now.

Endermen in Cat Ears
Demi: ...is it weird that endermen remind me of chickens?
Thorny: They remind me of cats.
Demi: I meant the in-game chickens, but I wanna hear why you think cats because that rocks.
Thorny: They want to see what you're doing and will practically stand on you to do so, they steal the most random crap, and they get mortally offended if you look at them.
Demi: aaaand now i'm imagining enders with cat ears. fuck it all.

"Things were different back then."
I was 7 years old when I became conscious of the fact that the colour of my skin mattered. My mother had decided I needed a birthday party and made me invite all my friends. I hadn’t wanted a party and spent most of it hiding from everyone. Not because I didn’t want to spend time with the kids that had been invited, I had made the guest list, after all, and considered these people...

Thirteen Observations made by Lemony Snicket while watching Occupy Wall Street from a Discreet Distance
1. If you work hard, and become successful, it does not necessarily mean you are successful because you worked hard, just as if you are tall with long hair it doesn’t mean you would be a midget if you were bald.

Gender is a funny thing, for some of us. Maybe you’ve spent your whole life confident in your gender and you’ve never wondered if you are what everyone says you are; when you were born your parents were told you were a little girl and they sent out birth announcements and everything kind of went from there. You’re a girl. You’ve always been a...

TGIF
Today I had surprise! surgery on my sinuses. Then I made a homeless man smile by chatting with him for 20 minutes and then buying him a pack of cigarettes while I was picking up my prescriptions. (I had no cash, so I asked if I could buy him anything instead)
