It probably says a lot about me that, rather than a teddy bear, my beloved stuffed animal as a child was a Tyrannosaurus Rex.
“Do you want a teddy, sweetie?” -My mother 27 years ago.
“T-REX!”-My 2 year old self.
“A…T-Rex?”- My mildly confused mother.
“T REX T REX T REX.” -my stubborn 2 year old ass, who’d been watching dinosaur documentaries taped off of PBS on repeat for six months straight.
“Okay.” -My resigned mother.
She then proceeded to make one because of fucking course they don’t have stuffed T Rexes at Target.
I got him for Christmas. I named him T-Rex. I love him. He went everywhere with me. I threatened people I didn’t like by saying I would feed them to T-rex. He sits on my vanity now as a protector. I’ve carefully patched him a couple times with the leftover fabric from when Mom made him; she bought extra and saved it because she is a wise woman and Knew.
“Why does your daughter have a stuffed dinosaur. Wouldn’t you like a nice doll or bear more?” -many, many people throughout my childhood.
“Why’s playing with a stuffed bear better than a T rex. They’re both apex predators.” -My mother.
“What.”-those same befuddled people.
It was from this pattern.
Mom still has it because she has never thrown a sewing pattern away in her life.
People in San Francisco are spending $37 for untreated, unfiltered water — and it is so popular, stores are apparently having a hard time keeping it in stock.
Other Silicon Valley insiders are gathering and storing their own spring water, which has not been treated.
Consuming “raw” water can spread infections such as cholera, Hepatitis A, and E. coli.

hey ik we’re rejecting “softboys” this year but can we not throw trans boys and gay men under the bus while we do that because expressing femininity and desiring to be soft and in touch with your emotions isnt a bad fucking thing
like i feel as if a lot of you have forgotten what kind of softboy is the one we’re trying to avoid. guys who put on a persona of being cute and approachable and then using their position to take advantage of women and others on social media, in the workplace, etc and its really weird that you all are reducing it to just… boys who like pastels and wearing flower crowns and shit and its weird
the message of “don’t trust self-described nice/trustworthy guys” honestly got run through a radfem machine & spat out as “men only use femininity to lie to/manipulate (cis) women” and, at its worst, it comes w the air of “and you’re stupid for believing them.” like remember how ppl were jumping to say they ‘knew it’ when the news came out abt n1ck r0binson? as if the ppl who enjoyed his content were somehow blind for trusting him?
