  • A lot of people don’t take these things in to account. Due to health issues I have slowly lost my teeth over the past 15 years. Due to poverty and systemic problems I couldn’t get them fixed. Now I’m in my 40s and left with barely enough teeth to chew - no molars, and my face is shifting because it doesn’t have the support structure anymore, which puts painful pressure on my remaining teeth all the time. Technically my health benefits say they pay for dentures but it’s been nothing but a run around, months and months of waiting for paperwork to be mailed and just utter nonsense while I’m here with a handful of teeth and I’m scared to talk to people or make friends because as soon as people see my teeth the judge me and leave.





  • I can’t speak from a Muslim perspective, but I can speak from an ex-christian fundamentalist perspective and I think that sometimes, even when we’ve made progress it can be hard to let go of some of the beliefs that direct affect you.

    I stopped being a Christian when I became an adult but when I got pregnant I still held tightly to the belief that abortion was murder. I felt it was fine for others to go and do because we all have the right to choose what we do with our bodies, I knew women who’d had abortions, and I never once thought I would go to hell for it, but after a lifetime of conditioning it just felt wrong for me to do. Now I wouldn’t hesitate to get an abortion if I needed one.

    Even when one has unpacked the luggage, it can take some time to reorganize it all and discard what you don’t need.













  • A cat in a wealthy, loving home. I’m not social enough to be a dog, and the way my cats laze about like they don’t have to worry about rent really induces a special kind of envy. I don’t care if I’m stupid or ugly or even a little deformed as long as it’s not painful. I just want to be a lazy kitty who gets random cuddles but is never expected to engage. And then when I do engage everyone swoons.

    What a life.
