wtnv, gay is fine, but mountains, now there’s a controversy
I realize this is a cast iron gate but I’m choosing to believe it’s a magic protection ritual
Given what I know of the fay, it is very likely that a cast IRON gate will act as a protection charm.

“My body, my choice” only makes sense when someone else’s life isn’t at stake.
Fun fact: If my younger sister was in a car accident and desperately needed a blood transfusion to live, and I was the only person on Earth who could donate blood to save her, and even though donating blood is a relatively easy, safe, and quick procedure no one can force me to give blood. Yes, even to save the life of a fully grown person, it would be ILLEGAL to FORCE me to donate blood if I didn’t want to.
See, we have this concept called “bodily autonomy.” It’s this….cultural notion that a person’s control over their own body is above all important and must not be infringed upon.
Like, we can’t even take LIFE SAVING organs from CORPSES unless the person whose corpse it is gave consent before their death. Even corpses get bodily autonomy.
To tell people that they MUST sacrifice their bodily autonomy for 9 months against their will in an incredibly expensive, invasive, difficult process to save what YOU view as another human life (a debatable claim in the early stages of pregnancy when the VAST majority of abortions are performed) is desperately unethical. You can’t even ask people to sacrifice bodily autonomy to give up organs they aren’t using anymore after they have died.
You’re asking people who can become pregnant to accept less bodily autonomy than we grant to dead bodies.
reblogging for commentary
But, assuming the mother wasn’t raped, the choice to HAVE a baby and risk sacrificing their “bodily autonomy” is a choice that the mother made. YOu don’t have to have sex with someone. Cases of rape aside, it isn’t ethical to say abortion is justified. The unborn baby has rights, too.
First point: Bodily autonomy can be preserved, even if another life is dependent on it. See again the example about the blood donation.
And here’s another point: When you say that “rape is the exception” you betray something FUNDAMENTALLY BROKEN about your own argument.
Because a fetus produced from sexual assault is biologically NO DIFFERENT than a fetus produced from consensual sex. No difference at all.
If one is alive, so is the other. If one is a person, so is the other. If one has a soul, then so does the other. If one is a little blessing that happened for a reason and must be protected, then so is the other.
When you say that “Rape is the exception” what you betray is this: It isn’t about a life. This isn’t about the little soul sitting inside some person’s womb, because if it was you wouldn’t care about HOW it got there, only that it is a little life that needs protecting.
When you say “rape is the exception” what you say is this: You are treating pregnancy as a punishment. You are PUNISHING people who have had CONSENSUAL SEX but don’t want to go through a pregnancy. People who DARED to have consensual sex without the goal of procreation in mind, and this is their “consequence.”
And that is gross.
^ THIS. This is this this THIS THIS THIS. THIS!!!!!

This is probably the strongest and well worded/supported argument for abortion that I have ever read.
Hi brain, you obstinate fucker. I drank the clear splashy stuff. I ate the green things. I went under that bright fucker up there. I did the thing with the moving and sweating and whatnot. Now make the happy chemical, you lump of fuck.
did you do the thing with lying unconscious for 8 hours
……… fuck.
If your brain still refuses to make the happy chemical then store bought is also fine.

Remember kids, it’s only science if you write it down. Otherwise you’re just doing random shit.
I developed a crush on a girl at my company’s customer service training.
Don’t give me one-sided unrequited love, give me two-sided unwanted love. Both sides are deeply in love with the other and both sides are like ‘fuck, really?? them??? really?’
Is this a call out post for Pride and Prejudice.
I bet Jane Austin feels so attacked right now.
snakes never visit a restaurant because they don’t have any fingers to point at the words they can’t pronounce on the menu
I think my favorite implication of this post is that the snake population is not only literate, but also has the ability get obtain and exchange human currency for goods and/or services.
If you don’t manage to have children in your lifetime, you are ending a bloodline which lasted, unbroken, for 3.8 billion years..
No, you were the stupid fucks who thought 1 child was enough to sustain a bloodline. If you were serious about our bloodline you would have had 10 children and then my gay ass not reproducing wouldn’t matter.
True facts kids, always blame those older than you, you and your actions are a direct product of everything they did.
Can I just tape some white sage incense to my Roomba and call it a cleansing ritual?

*moves an image a mm to the left*
all text and images shift. four new pages appear. paragraph breaks form a union. a swarm of commas buzzes at the window. in the distance, sirens.
Okay, I get that from an amateur, but from a professional (literally, I get paid to fix Word documents) change the settings on the picture so the text doesn’t wrap around it but rather the picture is “In line” with text and exist on it’s own paragraph. That will fix all of your problems and headaches.
Please, for your own sanity (and because I’m not going to talk you through how to set up all of the tables/text boxes/columns you’d need to wrap text around an image in a standard way) do this.

Proposition: when one person has to cover a shift that is normally done by two people, they get paid double. This is both to compensate them for working twice as hard, and to remove any temptation for management to think “hey, actually that wasn’t so bad, maybe we should do this more often.”
Counter Proposal: The person covering should get their salary and the salary of the person they are covering for. That way if you are covering for someone who is very experienced (thus it will be more difficult to their work along with your own) you will get paid more. If you are doing the work of yourself and a person who has not had the job for long it will be easier to cover their responsibilities. This also allows for employees to learn what others are being paid and will help minimize the wage gap since you’ll know what a person who’s been working for the company for X years is currently making and you’ll know what people are being hired in at.
hey so it’s march now aka the beginning of endometriosis awareness month and i feel obligated to remind you that debilitatingly painful periods are not normal. if you or someone you know is ending up sick or bedridden every month, you are not crazy and deserve medical attention from someone who will take you seriously
hey it’s march again let’s get this post circulating again
