don't you realize our bodies could fall apart at any second?

One thing about tumblr is like this feels like a very small community, maybe because I don't follow fandom people/blogs with huge followings. But if someone on math community makes a good post, I'll see that baby on my feed for a dozen scrolls. Like haha I know everyone on here. this is just like sharing a house. yes reblog the math suggestion, I love it here

I’m at the BDSM club painting tunnels on the wall for my sub to run into

a phrase that kinda bothers me when talking about women's historical roles in europe is "cooking, cleaning, and taking care of the children." you hear it so often, those exact words in the same order even. and once you learn a little more you realize that the massive gaping hole in that list is fiberwork. im not an expert and have no hard numbers, but i wouldnt be surprised if fiberwork took up nearly as much time as the other three tasks combined, so it's not a trivial omission.

it's not a hot take to say that the mass amnesia about fiberwork is linked to the belittlement of women's work in geneal, but i do think there's a special kind of illusion that is cast by "cooking, cleaning, and taking care of the children." you hear that and think "well i cook and clean and take care of children (or i know someone who does) and i have a sense of how much work that is" and you know of course that cooking and cleaning were more laborious before modern technology, but still, you have a ballpark estimate you think, when in fact you are drastically underestimating the work load.

i also think that this just micharacterizes the role of women's work in livelihoods? cooking, cleaning, and taking care of the children are all sisyphean tasks that have to be repeated the next day. these are important, but not the whole picture. when we include all kinds of fiberwork—and other things, such as making candles or soap—women's work looks much more like manufacturing, a sphere we now associate more with men's work. i feel like women's connection to making and craftsmanship is often elided.

Hang in There!

I saw one that was like “if you have medical OCD and are scared you ate something toxic! Go call poison control! It will save you a few hours of scrolling on Reddit” like thanks? Okay?? So when I get an obsession I should search for reassurance instead of searching for reassurance? The best way to deal with obsessions is to ignore them.

tumblr ocd advice is kind of astounding bc youll see posts like "OCD LIFE HACK!!!!! if you have [obsession] try [compulsion]" and people are passing it around like its genuine advice and not literally the worst possible thing you could do in that scenario

Finished a patch yesterday. I think mine looks angrier than the album cover though
