some days more than others, i love myself. i like to think that this is one of those common human experiences, that everyone has days every once in a while where everything they do and everything they are just seems like shit.

Last night I had this dream where I had to attack a man in order to save my sister and I from being killed. When I woke up I was panicking in fear and it reminded me of an encounter I had at a local store recently. While browsing, a somewhat scraggly looking man made eye contact with me. He…

palisade:
A body is a body, hair is hair, skin is skin. Be comfortable with your life.
These words are simple. These words sound like they’re not enough to cover the situation (this naked body.) Here’s the thing— it covers it perfectly and this body isn’t a situation, it’s not a spectacle. I post naked forms all day fucking long and it’s not just something here on...

thrashrandicoot:
Sometimes I feel like my value as a person, friend, and fun person to do things with is depreciated in value because I’m a lady. There are certain sexist subtleties that have been screaming at me lately. It’s making me so frustrated.
