i think this is a good time to say as a palestinian that if you support israel in any of what they are doing right now please block my tumblr blog and also never speak to me again. thanks <3
People tell you this a lot when you’re disabled or when you’re dating a disabled person: “your partner should not be your caregiver.”
It makes sense and is good advice. If you are dependent on any one person for all your emotional and physical needs, it creates the potential for abuse. And there are times when you or your partner might be exhausted or need to unwind emotionally and can’t take on any more tasks, even caregiving tasks for someone you love.
But at the same time, caregiving is inherently going to be a part of any crip4crip relationship. I’m writing this while curled up on the bathroom floor. My girlfriend was the one who brought me my emergency medication and my water because I was too sick to get up, even though our plan was to chill and watch a movie. She’ll probably help me to my feet in a few minutes, once the medication’s kicked in, and will walk me back to the couch. Earlier tonight, I made her dinner, while she lay on a heat pad. This morning, I helped her braid her hair.
It isn’t rotten work by any means, but it is work. And this is the work that our bodies need. Either you can do it yourself or you can’t. And if you can’t, your loved ones can step in sometimes. It isn’t unhealthy or wrong to help each other

But I really do dislike how much veganism-the-ideology has taken over the discussion on climate change and how to fix our foodways, for reasons that include but are certainly not limited to:
- people who believe that farming animals is innately bad and unethical attributing climate change to "animal agriculture" when most of the negative impacts come from beef specifically, which makes the problem seem MUCH less solvable than it actually is.
- animal rights activists and organizations have been given a seat at the table discussing how to solve climate change and biodiversity loss, when they include people that believe things like "zoos are inherently bad" "domestication is equivalent to slavery" "it's never necessary to cull overpopulated species" and "hunting is always bad"
- The way we grow plant crops is SO fucked as well—nitrogen fertilizer causes so much pollution, use of pesticides and herbicides is probably the main cause of the decline of insects, we are losing topsoil way way too fast— but we have people naively proclaiming that switching to "plant based diets" is the answer
- the way "veganism as Solver Of Human Problems" puts the focus and responsibility entirely on individual choice instead of changing the way food systems work. I'm sorry but people cannot personal-choice their way out of a system that is fucked by design and that they need in order to not starve
- the stereotyping of farmers as evil and sadistic people who love to watch animals suffer for a profit. Who benefits
- rejecting outright the idea that farming or hunting animals could ever be sustainable or acceptable on any scale when indigenous people worldwide have done it for millennia, animals have been domesticated for 12,000+ years, and not everyone can even survive on a strictly plant based diet
- anti-indigenous racism
- anti-indigenous racism
- entangling so much energy and effort to removing all nuance and advocating a personal lifestyle change that is not possible to accomplish and/or sustain long term for most people instead of literally anything specific and effective
- ^who benefits
one of my favorite things in the whole world that makes me so happy is the behind the name popularity chart which shows the name “mabel” fade into obscurity and then rally in the early 2010’s right after gravity falls came out. it’s so dear to me

Tags collection (including my own), because this shit is infuriating.
tl;dr from the video:
this is a product being marketed as eco-friendly/sustainable/recycled and sold for a high price tag.
when taken apart the faux leather is basically a plastic coating (to give the outer leather texture) on a cloth core, with a thin layer of fuzzy leather dust glued on the inside (to give the inner leather texture)
it is very similar to existing faux-leather products, but with a marked up price
