upfromsumdirt said: frozen tequila was my thing, back in the day… those little single serves you’d get in the liquor store near the check out lanes? stick them in the freezer overnight, let it thaw just a bit… (smacks lips)
i'm probably breaking some serious wine snob...
i put the lambrusco in the freezer.
i forgot to take it out.
it’s slushy.
mid-thaw, i poured myself some.
it’s more delicious than ever.
tipsy tumblr to commence very shortly.

there are some people you never expect to fight with about certain topics and today, that changed.
I do not claim to know many facts nor do I claim to be of superior intelligence but I do know a thing or two about my body.
I am fat.
I sweat in winter, I have wide feet and I have dimples on my thighs.
Despite all those things, I have accepted myself and my body and just live my...

Major breakthrough today:
I realized that growing up, my family told me certain things that I believed were true (I didn’t need makeup because I was pretty enough without it, but I need to lose weight because apparently I would die if I didn’t and it was an ugly thing to be). How can I be pretty enough for no makeup, but ugly enough to need to lose weight? “They would be so...
I'm tired.
whatsajuthika:
I’m fucking TIRED of people denying anti-Muslim sentiment exists. I’m tired of people saying that Muslims deserve it. I’m tired of PoC being mocked for being inbreeds, goatfuckers, towelheads, when those names are fucking lies. I’m tired of people using Obama’s last name to accuse him of being a terrorist. I’m tired of people raising eyebrows at my parents when they walk in a...

i mean really, i told them that shit was heteronormative, marriage-biased and culturally biased as hell. i even gave them three specific examples (showing each of those biases) to prove that it was going to collect inaccurate data:

thevelvetdays:
I haven’t had a chance to peek on Tumblr the last couple of days to see how the news is getting passed around about Rupaul’s Drag Race finale. What I can tell you is that I have been working on transcribing several brand new hours of audio with all the queens that were in NYC for the finale, processing over 2000 photos, and over 3 hours of video, up close and personal from the...

Boogie's Bunny Logic
Boogie: Mommy, do I have to be asleep before the Easter Bunny comes?
Me: No, I think... wait, what? You believe in the Easter Bunny?
Boogie: mmhmm!
Me: But you don't believe in Santa Clause?
Boogie: ew. No.
Me: Let me get this straight, Santa Clause is crazy talk but the Easter Bunny makes complete sense to you...
Boogie: Yes.
Me: Why?
Boogie: Because! I know presents come from the store. I don't know where jelly beans come from.
Me: From the store...
Boogie: But how do they get to the store?
Me: From the candy factory.
Boogie: Who works at the candy factory?
Me: Peo--
Boogie: Bunnies!
Me: But...
Boogie: Have you ever seen Santa Clause when it is not Christmas?
Me: No but...
Boogie: Well, I see bunnies all the time and I see jelly beans all the time.
Me: But...
Boogie: So...
Me: Lord... fine.
Boogie: Plus! Hop the movie has bunnies and real people in it so it means it's true.
Me: Okay.
This makes sense.
Ah, you can count on me for anything you choose

i'm taking requests again tonight.

Trans Etiquette 101: No Offense, But That’s... →
transpride:
1. Ask permission to ask questions. Even if you think you know they are comfortable answering, they may actually not be or maybe not in that setting, and it is just rude and pretty off-putting to not ask. Say, “Hey do you mind if I ask you some things about your transition? I’ve been a little curious – feel free to not answer or say no.”
2. Avoid private and personal questions....
