Warning rant. Just so you know

Im so tired of people trying to push keto diets on me sayinv theres “absolutely no long term side effects”. No, theres entire medical warnings about this diet due to people lterally passing out with low blood sugar, bowel isses, severe constipation, kidney stones etc. Its not a safe long term diet. Its a fad diet. I dont want it.

Did I mention it could raise risks of heart disease and heart attacks in those with genetic predispositions?

“Often its called the keto flu due to vomitting, diarrhea and light headedness associated with the diet.” Yeah sounds super safe

Isn’t it basically just a re-labeled version of the Atkins diet? The one that was popular and actually killed people/made them sick in like the 70s/80s???

I don’t know why it’s so hard for people to understand that cutting ANYTHING out of your diet completely is NOT safe. 

Yes it is. It is exactly the same hence why the side effect illness of the Atkins diet was called ketosis and just for those wondering the definition of that is: 

“

a metabolic state characterized by raised levels of ketone bodies in the body tissues, which is typically pathological in conditions such as diabetes, or may be the consequence of a diet that is very low in carbohydrates.”

saw a comment someone made on a post saying “it’s not possible to read dark fiction and not have that affect your morals, you can’t train your brain NOT to normalize those things!” and i completely agree

as a life-long crime fiction and horror fan, i am an immoral monster. i’ve watched all 456 episodes of law and order and committed a murder after each one. i ate my neighbors after watching hannibal. i started a meth lab after breaking bad. i ruined my high school prom because i watched carrie the night before. in middle school i read stephen king’s it, went down to the sewers with some friends and

Quit asking witch blogs for medical advice and go see a doctor

Unless someone explicitly states they are a doctor do not ask people across the internet for medical advice. Essential oils are NOT substitutes for actual medicine. It makes witches really uncomfortable when we get asks like this in our inbox.

When you ask a non doctor medical questions you are willfully denying yourself accurate medicinal treatments, doing that could end up harming you further. The witch blogger on the other side of the screen doesn’t know if the advice they give is going to interact with your current medication. If anything goes wrong they could be held liable and that’s not fair since they are not a doctor.

Don’t be those asshole who ask non doctors for medical advice. Go see a trained professional and get that proper diagnosis.

GO TO THE DOCTOR

also people really seem to think that specifically children with adhd will suddenly become not distractable if you remove distractors like phones which is very much not the case lol they just zone out you idiots.

my parents did this with homework and i would sit there zoned out till 10 pm not doing shit because they turned the internet off

Neurotypical people tend to not understand that my ability to focus on something I’m not particularly motivated to do will increase tenfold if I can have a secondary task or background distraction with which to pair it. So, for example, if I’m in a boring meeting or have to listen to a webinar or something, my ability to stay tuned in to what’s being said will actually improve greatly if I’m simultaneously allowed to play a game or colour. Likewise, if I have a boring work project that involves inputting data into spreadsheets or something of that nature, I absolutely need to be able to listen to a podcast whilst I work. People think these sorts of things are signs of not being invested, but for me, it’s the difference between engagement and zoning out. 

My dear witches and various magic practitioners,

So please, let me know if you post original content OR you can reblog this and recommend your favorite blogs, pretty pretty please!

Me: *is mild-to-moderately inconvenienced*

Me: leaving the womb was a mistake

In the words of Douglas Adams:

“Many were increasingly of the opinion that they’d all made a big mistake coming down from the trees in the first place, and some said that even the trees had been a bad move, and that no-one should ever have left the oceans.”

alternatively, also in the words of Douglas Adams:

“In the beginning, the Universe was created. This has made a lot of people very angry and been widely regarded as a bad move.”

A quick analysis of the end of Chapter 56

Sangwoo wakes from a rather unpleasant dream and finds Bum sucking him off (Side note: don’t have sex with unconscious people). 

image

Bum is taking an active role, while Sangwoo is in a passive role. This dynamic that Bum has put them into angers him, and he grabs Bum off the floor and  onto the table, reestablishing him in the dominant position and Bum in the submissive position.

image
image

Bum is either too drunk or too horney realize how ticked Sangwoo is. And Bum, just going with the flow, stares moaning out “Babe.” This is clearly triggering for Sangwoo, and so he finds the most practical why to shut Bum up: shoving a corncob in his mouth.

image

Bum, who’s not type to judge you on your cornkink, continues to go with the flow and decides he’s gonna ride that dick, because yolo.

However, doing so, reverts Sangwoo back into a more submissive position.

image

Sangwoo starts to panic.

image

His mind, responding to the distress, reverts to old tacts that kept him safe/alive in the past, which is appeasing the ‘attacker’. He asks if the other feels good (assessing the other’s state, while mimicking positive engagement), and states that he feels good too (assuring the other that everything is okay, that there’s no reason for violent escalation). At the same time he’s demanding to see Bum’s face, to help ground him in reality, that right now he’s with Bum.

image
image
image

But he slips up.

image

Now a couple small predictions for the next chapter, Sangwoo doesn’t want to disclose what his mother did to him, and so if Sangwoo is going to tell Bum, he’s needs a really good reason too. Bum, I doubt would judge Sangwoo for what happened to him, if Sangwoo does tell him the truth. However, in the last two chapter’s Bum has stressed that he wants to feel like they are in a real relationship, that he is loved, and that this love is genuine. But Sangwoo wasn’t thinking about him while they were having sex.

When Sangwoo brought Bum up from the basement, he told him three important things:

1. Bum reminded him of his mom

2. That he loved his mom

3. And he asked if Bum wanted to be the mom

If Bum convinces himself that Sangwoo is just projecting his mother on him, that Sangwoo doesn’t actually love him, it will break his heart.

Shout out to all my straight sisters I’m so sorry 😞

Jesus, leave his ass.

We learn fast to be very kind and attentive, tho.

My mom, who got her degree in Marriage and Family Counseling when she was 60, says studies show that women will sometimes sometimes leave a long term relationship to live on their own for a while before seeking a new relationship, but men will almost never leave a long term relationship without having a new relationship either in progress or just beginning.  They don’t want to give up the caretaker they have without another one on deck or in the wings.

This is so sad

This isnt cute or quirky. This means hes a fucking hopeless user

Please date a man who actually acts like an adult.

Ok I lived with my ex for 2 years and he literally wouldn’t be able to get his own food if I wasn’t at home, I’d get home from work and he’d be angry at me for “making him starve”

My current partner has lived on his own for 8 years and the absolute most I have to help him with is maybe sending him $20 so he can make a bill payment on time

It made me realise for 2-4 years I wasn’t a girlfriend I was a fucking mother

Men who have been independent are capable of reverting if given the slightest excuse. When we married, my ex husband was 10 years older than me and had lived on his own for 8ish years. Yet (and I allowed this until I finally got fed up and took us to counseling) I did 80% of the cooking, because I was better at it. Same with the cleaning, shopping, social planning, etc.

After I left, in the first six months I got texts or calls asking me to please tell him:

  • The online banking password (dude, I left you, you should really change that)
  • Where I ordered his special-wecial organic underwear
  • Where the good cutting board was (my dad gave it to us at our wedding, genius, I took it with me along with the rest of the stuff from my family)
  • What brand butter we bought
  • What brand of local kielbasa we bought
  • Who his doctor was
  • What RMV office had the shortest lines
  • Where the old tax returns were (in the fucking box labeled tax returns)
  • The phone number for his best friend

I shit you not.

Then he had a heart attack (mild) and none of his family or friends were around to take him to the hospital. But instead of calling 911, he called me, who by then lived 45 minutes away. He lived 5 minutes from an EMS dispatch location. He called me, despite the fact that he didn’t believe me 8 months prior when I was feeling suicidal and I had to call a cab to go alone to check myself into the hospital for a 72-hour hold. I told him to call 911, hung up on him when he whined about “making a fuss”, called 911, called his siblings and then texted them “your brother is having a heart attack, I called 911 for him, come home,” and washed my hands of it.

Emotionally vacant men who won’t do household labor or emotional labor are not Nazis, but they aren’t good people, either, and you don’t have to put up with their shit.

Millennial women of Tumblr, please read this post.

And then please: make the decision for yourself to never stay with a man who expects you to be his mother and servant.

This is my grandma to a T. She has lived with the same man for a good 60+ years now and her literal words quoted: “When I’m not home for an extended period of time (week or more) I worry about him eating and then when I get home he’s been eating fish and potatoes for the whole time, even though I left heatable meals in the fridge for him”
My grandma pays ALL THE BILLS. Yes ALL OF THEM. The only bills my grandpa puts any money into is car payements and some land-deed tax stuff. He refuses to cook, clean, wash his clothes, any of it.

The whole family is currently waiting for my grandpa to die so my grandma can finally go free, because she’s so stuck into her role as a caretaker that’s the only way to force her to let this shitbag go.

Tumblr, keep circulating this. This is not the 1960s, a dude’s gotta wash his own fucking clothes in our lord’s year of 2018.

Wow

Found this short documentary from 2014 about him and his forest:

Soil erosion is still a problem but the authorities do not appear to be listening to Jadav’s suggestions on combating the issue, according to the programme. He would like to plant coconut trees because they grow extremely straight and help prevent erosion if planted densely enough. The fruit could also be sold for economic gain.

Source

The man turned that barren land into a whole fucking forest by hand for them. Yet they show no interest in investing in its upkeep nor the desire for financial gain via the coconut industry. I just…🙄

On poverty and pronunciation in academia

Oh.

Why I never mock or even bring attention to mispronunciation in a conversation, and will snap down anyone who tries to

Besides poverty, for many peoplevEnglish is a second (or third+) language and has weird rules too.

Most of the time, even when words are mispronounced, they’re still understandable if you make an effort. Just be patient and don’t look down on people who mispronounce!

Been having a lot of dreams about turkey vultures lately hmm

Vultures in dreams mean purification and insight. Often they appear in dreams when one is looking onto something. Often the represent opportunity and taking it up. If vultures are attacking or feasting on the dreamer it means the dreamer feels used by another.

usually in the dreams im driving and they’re just walking past in the opposing lane

It may mean that you need to take up an opportunity before it “passes you by” if that makes sense

Random Correspondence for you dear~

Squirrels 

(because who doesn’t love squirrels?)

Correspondences: survival, agility, social energy, communication, medicine/healing, energy, preparation, order and balance

Connections to you: often individuals use the energy and representation of squirrels for the meaning of planning, work and communicating with others. Squirrels spend most of their life safe storing food and preparing for shortages, which is what sometimes we have to do too. We have to prepare and prep and plan.

Mythology: In Norse mythology the red squirrel Ratatosk was often a messenger and deliverer of gossip and some occasions carrying insults as well. In England there was plenty of lore about red squirrels traveling across the country in a day and often were said to be good omens of safe travel. Sometimes squirrels across Europe squirrels were used to represent mischief, tricks and innocence especially in wood carvings and stitch work.

Trick or Treat?

Treat!

Your card: Strength Reversed

It seems you are going to be faced with some controversy and challenges in the near future, you should make sure you are prepared. It will be a big struggle, though youll have to push through. Keep yourself together but know its okay to let it out at times too.

(Trick or treats are closed!)

I like pizza. (Who doesn’t? Lol) My question is this: do you or another Tumblr user know of good magick correspondences for pizza toppings?

Hey there, actually I can’t eat pizza >-> fun fact of the day I suppose.

But!

correspondences for pizza toppings can definitely be found you just have to search for vegetable and fruit correspondences to align. When it comes to meat honestly animal correspondences work and I’ve seen plenty of kitchen witchcraft correspondences for meats.

I do know on my blog I have some reblogs if you search by “vegetable” and “fruit” and I do believe “kitchen magick”. I am unfortunately not on a device I can link things, sorry!

no offense I haven’t heard a girl talk at length about pumpkin spice anything in years and I can’t remember the last time I went six hours without hearing a grown man making fun of how obsessed girls are with pumpkin spice lattes

Grown men are obsessed with making fun of girls so they don’t have to think of their own numerous and pathetic flaws.

Walk up to a man and say you don’t like bacon and wait for the reaction

punk isn’t just skinny. punk isn’t just perfect mohawks or aesthetically pleasing jackets. punk isn’t only listening to dead kennedys or black flag. punk is being an individual, having no respect for our fascist authority, sticking up for the little guy even if you are the little guy. punk isn’t just a look or a music scene.

i literally made this because nazis and the alt right can’t be punk

Stop bringing politics into music genres lmao

stop bringing politics…….. into punk????

Here’s Green Day, one of the most popular and well known punk bands.

Wait, but there’s MORE!

Wait, in case you weren’t convinced that the punk scene is political and is all about standing up against fascism and bullshit and racism that America is facing:

shut up. Punk is not just a fucking music genre.

Ok I’m reblogging this again bc when I went to see green day, before they properly started playing they made us make a pledge, at the gig there is to be ‘No racism, no sexism, no homophobia, no donald trump’

Punk has been political long before Green Day existed. The political history of the Punk scene(s) cannot be divorced from the music scene(s) that arose out of them. It is not just about music. It is not just about fashion. The stylistic choices made have meaning and are situated in a social/political context. 

That being said, it’s really important to acknowledge that Neo-Nazis didn’t infiltrate the Punk subculture for no reason. Absolutely, make it clear that Neo-Nazis are not welcome in The Punk Scene. However, part of doing that means confronting how they got there.

Punk music isn’t all about one political stance, though it’s commonly anti-authoritarian. Anyone can utilize the genre to promote their own ideologies, even if a popular intention of the genre is to be anti-authoritarian. Green Day is just one of many bands who use Punk music to spread their ideology. 

It’s not just punk. Music has been used as a form of rebellion against oppression for a hell of a long time. Fuck, centuries even. The people who don’t get this have most likely never been oppressed in their life.

A few protest/”political” songs, and some about specific tragedies, from recent history, that aren’t just punk:

Zombie, The Cranberries

I Know A Place, MUNA

99 Luftballons, Nena

Beds Are Burning, Midnight Oil

Khe Sahn, Cold Chisel

I Was Only Nineteen, Redgum

The Greatest, Sia

Fuck Tha Police , N.W.A

Eve of Destruction, Barry McGuire

We Are The World, USA for Africa

Say It Loud (I’m Black and I’m Proud), James Brown

Big Yellow Taxi, Joni Mitchell (or more recently, Counting Crows)

Born in the USA, Bruce Springsteen

Know Your Rights, The Clash

Holiday in Cambodia, Dead Kennedys

The Revolution Will Not Be Televised, Gil Scott Heron

We’ve been doing this shit forever, it’s not new. War, racism, fascism, homophobia… if it’s harmed people, it’s been put into music. It’s an incredibly powerful medium that has changed the world before, and to say that politics, hatred, and tragedy shouldn’t be featured is, honestly, simply ignorant.

I cannot deal with the sheer level of numbskull-ery in a statement like “Don’t bring politics into music” as if this is some Silly Tumblr Fad and not something that’s been a thing for over a hundred years
