And speaking of gross bros thinking of nerd girls like fucking unicorns…
I was actually talking to a female client once about cannon-fannon and how much I love listening to her talk comics, and had a male client interupt us to tell me he has never met a chick that is into comics before, he’s never even heard of a girl being into comics before, and he has always wanted a nerdy girlfriend and that i absolutely MUST give him her number.
I actually had to explain to him that I wasn’t joking when I said she was out of his league. Yes, she is incredible, she is beautiful, she is intelligent, successful, highly knowledgeable and enthusiastic about comics, and she’s also not even going to look twice at you because literally all you got is that she fulfills a fantasy of yours.
Yes bro i get it, she’s your ideal girl. Trust me, she’s a lot of people’s ideal girl. And you’re not even on her radar. You’re not special because you’re into comics. She has a very wide range of potential partners to choose from and ‘never having met a nerdy girl before’ isn’t a good character trait, because it means you know zero women. Or zero women have trusted your creepy ass with the knowledge that they are into comics.
The most concerning part of that entire conversation was his complete inability to grasp the concept that she wouldn’t date him and his insistence that she would.
He insisted that I give her name/number/fb/actually call her and ask her to come to the studio (wtffff???) because he needed to meet her. And then just could not fathom that I refused. He seemed to be running on this idea that if she met him, she would like him. For no other reason than that he was into comics and he wanted a nerd girlfriend.
And I was somehow out of line for refusing to give my best freinds deets to this creepy nerdbro because I couldn’t possibly know that she wouldn’t be into him.
He got really upset.
He was in my studio for 45 mins arguing with me on and off about this and trying to push me into giving her number.
Out. Of. Your. League. Not on your level. Too fucking good for you. Not a possibility. You’ve got nothing she wants. You’re one of literally thousands who would want her. You have nothing to offer her. You tick zero of her boxes. You do not even meet the minimum requirements for me to even ask her.
NOT
HAPPENING
MATE.
This is why women don’t say they’re women in WoW, this is why women don’t say they’re into games irl. This is why women don’t hang out in comics stores. This is why nerd women hide one of these two aspects of themselves when interacting with nerd men.
Because you creepy as FUCK about us.
‘never having met a nerdy girl before’ isn’t a good character trait, because it means you know zero women.
Idk if this is a sign that my depression is back, or that I hate my job…or both.
I reminded myself I work tomorrow at my shitty, barely part time job and burst into tears. Nothing about it makes me happy. Can barely pay one bill with it, I mean, come on.
My little brother is encouraging me to talk to my Dad about quitting so I can go to school again, like they both did/are doing.
And yes, I’ve applied and continue to apply to other places, but no luck. I don’t know why.
I feel guilty wanting to leave this one without having already been hired somewhere else since we need all the money we can get, but my brother is being really supportive.
Which I’m grateful for.
Hopefully the talk with my Dad goes well. He’s not known for letting his kids be ‘quitters’ as he puts it.
Just very old fashioned.
Though, I did get him to let my brother drop a class that he didn’t need yet and really upset him emotionally.
bella complaining about washington was so hard for me to read like girl…be grateful u moved out of death hill desert arizona into Beautiful Trees and Mountain Ranges Washington…like wake up and smell the rain
No Federal civil rights law shall be interpreted to treat gender identity or transgender status as a protected class, unless such law expressly designates “gender identity” or “transgender status” as a protected class.
“
@yall I see ignoring this please dont. I get it its upseting, but this is IMPORTANT information that could SAVE our lives and our rights.
Also this boils down to stripping rights away from intersex and trans ppl from what I understand, meaning that we would no longer be protected under federal law. This is scary. Call your reps and get this shut down as soon as you can. We can beat this together. We need each other right now. Share this, spread this information.
how you can help:
call your local senator and representatives! websites like 5calls tell you your national representatives based on your location and if you use their mobile site, you can call those representatives through their site. they don’t yet have hb2796 on their site, but you can use their system regardless!
here is an example of something you can say: “My name is (your name) and I am a constituent in (your town/city/district). I strongly oppose house bill 2796, which aims to remove gender identity protections from civil rights legislation by forcibly clarifying “gender” or “sex” to indicate only a person’s assigned gender at birth. Transgender people require civil rights protections as a vulnerable part of our population, and it is extremely important to me that they receive those protections. Thank you for your time and attention.”
IF YOU LEAVE A VOICEMAIL: leave your street address to ensure your call is tallied!
when you call, they will not argue with you, and basically just tally how many people contact them on a certain issue. also, if you want to support other issues on the 5calls site, don’t be afraid to make multiple separate calls! call volume matters and if you call more separate times it will be better.
Dammit I hate to use this blog for this but- from one trans guy to yall- this is important!
It looks like this bill isn’t getting fast tracked and is actually going through the entire legislative process so keep at it!
This is important. Calling all witches! contact your representatives and then get out those spell ingredients!
Today is August 25th, 2018.
HB 2796 is still in this stage:
It has not passed the House. Keep it up, folks. Eliminate this monstrosity.

So, I NEVER go to parties. I just usually don’t like them. However, I recently got invited to one and decided I would go just to get out.
Yet, I’m here instead of there because last night (at almost 2 am because he saw I was still logged into Facebook, which I am. I just always leave it logged on.) the guy decided to drunk message and call me.
I didn’t answer either.
When I didn’t answer he said not to be a gay ass trick.
As you can guess, not getting great vibes from the dude who invited me.
That being said, I uninvited myself without telling him.
He’s still trying to message me the address and saying things like ‘this outta be good’, which honestly confuses me.
Just the tone because of some of the other messages, which I won’t put up here but they were along the lines of ‘why aren’t you answering, what the hell?’
I can’t tell if he’s talking about the party or questioning about why I didn’t answer his call…at 2 in the morning.
Maybe I just don’t get around people much and read too into it, but it’s making me so uncomfortable.
After playing a large role in the creation of the new Hogwarts Debating Club, you are ready to take part in the first debate of the year, which revolves around the topic of werewolves. You’re suprised to find that your speech inspires a certain young man to join the club, but unfortunately relations between a Slytherin and a Gryffindor are never quite that simple.
The stone walls amplified the
sound of each chair screeching against the floor, of students hurriedly getting
their place cards in order, wands safely locked away in a glass case by the
door. The club’s banner hung crookedly, the ink a little splotchy by the word ‘club’,
as the first years had insisted on helping paint it. It swayed in a gentle wind
as the narrow windows of the classroom had been opened, the night sky clear,
the air crisp. You smiled at the wonky lines of the banner, at the way people
fumbled with their quills and collars, the nervous tension excited by Horace
Slughorn taking his place behind the speech lectern. The candles floating
around the room drifted towards him, creating a glow that resembled a spotlight.
He had no need to cast Sonorus, for the
room provided his voice with all the acoustics he needed to be heard.
“Debaters,” he nodded at both
tables, each respectively decorated with green and red banners, “ladies and
gentlemen,” he bowed at the small group of students who had come to watch, “welcome
to the first monthly Hogwarts debate!”
A pitter patter of claps sounded
around the room, albeit lacking, it filled you with pride.
“A special thankyou is in order
for our very own (Y/n) (Y/l/n), without whom we would not have our new debating
club.” you smiled graciously as the claps were directed at you, “Now. For our
first debate, we shall not be starting lightly. Tonight’s debated question is as
follows: ‘The Werewolf Registry Act of 1947 should be amended by the Ministry
of Magic’. Slytherin represents for, and Gryffindor is the against.” Slughorn waited
until the interested murmurs of the audience quieted before he procured his
wand, tapping it on a fishbowl filled with slips of paper. One piece shot out
and with agile speed he caught it between his fingers. “The first team to make
their case will be… Gryffindor!”
The Addams family was, in fact, both magical and supernatural for its depiction of a healthy, loving, supportive, and fun married m/f couple.
This is now officially an Addams family appreciation post
In order to depict such purity and love in a m/f relationship, one must first set the foundation that these people are odd and not the norm. (per media standards)
They cared about their children, their children’s interests, and wanted the kids to always be true to themselves. How peculiar!
Gomez and Morticia never showed negative jealousy towards each other’s past love interests. Even going to far as complimenting them for being special to their true love. How bizarre!
They could forgive almost any character flaw in a friend or relative. The only thing that could not be forgiven was betrayals and pastels. Weird amirite?
Morticia is a woman’s woman. She allies herself with other women instead of competing with them. She even seeks to understand women different from herself and her beliefs. Strange.
Gomez wants Morticia to have whatever Morticia wants. He doesn’t give her permission, he actively supports her and motivates her. Fa-reaky.
I seem to recall once reading a review that said that Gomez and Morticia were the only couple on television in the 1960s whom you could actually imagine producing children.
