- that thing you did that was kind of embarrassing and weird, everyone else forgot about that already
- you look fine today, if you can’t notice something on your face standing 6 feet from a mirror then nobody else will either
- if something is out of your control, do not let yourself or anyone else expect you to deal with it alone
- social lives can go through cycles sometimes, if you feel like your friends are all ignoring you for no reason they’re probably just busy with other things
- if you can’t stop thinking about someone or something, find something mentally occupying to do like reading a book or watching a movie. it won’t solve any serious problems but you will feel better
- nothing will always be easy, if you’re trying then that should be good enough for anyone. if it’s not then you’re talking with the wrong people
- never underestimate the importance of going to bed, if it’s dark outside and you feel bad just go to bed and deal with your problems the next day
i’m sorry but you’ve literally got the last four presidents telling you to vote for one candidate. what more could you possibly want than four dudes telling you that someone is such bad news that two of them are willing to go against their own political party to say so. like. HONESTLY.
When even George W. says “nah man, that’s a bad idea” It’s probably a bad idea.
I like the concept of being a witch. Because it grows with you. You can look any way and be any age, and still be a witch. Unlike other jobs and titles for women, you don’t become some sad, old version of a thing upon getting older. You only get better at witchery, and thus that much scarier. There’s no place to go but up. Everything should be like that
Know your rights and don’t let ANYONE stop you from voting!
VOTE VOTE VOTE VOTE and know your ballot. Learn about local and state candidates. Let’s build the government we need from the ground up
Do keep in mind though, To vote you must be of legal age and have registered to do so. If either of these things is not right, They have every right to tell you to step out of the way and leave.
Trump’s followers are planning on acting as “poll watchers” to make sure the election is not “rigged” (defined by them as Trump losing).
It’s entirely possible we’re going to see some voter intimidation at the polls.
The only person who has the right to tell you to leave if you are not registered is an official poll worker.
Nobody else, including “poll watchers,” security at the polling building, etc.
Only offiicial poll workers, who’s job it is to check you are registered and who you say you are.
if you’re not registered, the official poll worker at the table will tell you how to register. until you’re registered, they won’t hand you a ballot. that’s the legal and proper way it’s done. any other attempt to keep you from voting is illegal.
if the poll worker gave you a ballot, and someone else tries to stop you, take their picture and tell the FBI.
I just wrote an entire happy little mental story about this kid and their giant loyal dog and their adventures spelunking.
(How do they know it’s a boy? Are feet that gendered? Genuine question, I’m not an anatomist, I don’t know.)
It’s a cute little idea, but no, they can’t tell it’s a boy, there is NO physical difference in children at that age that would show up in their gait. They also can’t tell if the wolf/dog was walking WITH the kid, or you know, about to EAT the kid. There are also foot prints of cave bear, but I’m pretty sure there isn’t anyone trying to imply they had a pet bear. :)
OH MY GOD A BEAR EVEN BETTER!
That little girl could totally have a pet bear. This story is improving every time I rewrite it. Now it includes Wolfdog and Bear, who do NOT get along but now have to learn to tolerate each other because Girl is on a quest and the Great Horse of her tribe (pictured below) commanded them to help her.
She’s gotta find the Lost Herd of horses so her family will have food for the winter! (Wikipedia informs me horses were eaten 26K years ago but only domesticated probably about 10K years ago.)
MEANWHILE, on the question of gender, what I have taken from many reblogs is:
1. Feet can be gendered, to an extent, where male feet generally have wider heels in comparison to the ball of the foot 1a. Kid feet, however, look identical when boys are 8-10 and girls are 7-12 (1b. Look at that footprint, I’m still not an anatomist but THE HEEL IS SUPER NARROW right?) 2. You can sometimes tell pelvis shape from stride length, kind of 2a. I feel like gendering a pelvis from a stride length is probably not super reliable given that viking women post that’s going around about how actual facts existing pelvises can themselves be misleading 2b. Apparently the people studying these footprints can’t actually examine them because the area is roped off? So I am suspicious of any supposed measurements. 3. They can’t actually tell, because they can’t get over there to poke it with Science, if the child and the wolfdog even walked there at the same time 3a. Or if the wolfdog ate the child in a surprise attack 3b. See above, there were also bears.
Looking at all the evidence, I’m gonna go with Girl. If you wanna fight me go ahead but I feel like you should probably address all the people who still think Pluto is a planet first, ‘cause we have actual facts scientifical evidence about that one.
Also apparently there is a movie about this cave called Cave Of Forgotten Dreams, someone needs to stream it (probably will be me).
me growing up:
I don't understand how an empire like Rome with so many resources and such a clear advantage could tear itself apart, it just seems unlikely
