Antichoice propaganda about aborting disabled fetuses–for example, the “there arent any babies born with down syndrome in Iceland anymore!” myth–arent about giving a shit about disabled people, it’s about spreading the idea that women are so inherently evil, vicious, and selfish that only the law would stop us from gleefully murdering every single baby we feel would be slightly inconvenient. That’s it, antichoicers don’t give a single hot shit about the dignity and well-being of disabled people, and they and their arguments should not be dignified as if they do.
For God’s sake, look at how many people in antichoice movements (particularly in the US) also vehemently oppose universal healthcare and support for disabled people. On top of that, look at how antichoice propaganda does treat disabled people–it often focuses on the mother, and how she’s such a saintly, properly feminine martyr for suffering through caring for her Trouble Baby (unlike all those evil slags who’d cut a baby’s throat if it so much as broke a bone).
I’m watching Doomsday Preppers. These people have an unbelievably bleak view of humanity, like, I’m just saying my family survived the complete disintegration of Lebanese civil society without shanking their neighbours for water or stockpiling hand grenades.
If your reaction to a foreseen future economic collapse is to set traps and stockpile guns to kill your neighbours who want some of your huge food stock, you are broken and I have no idea how to fix you.

So i decided to do a short post on what separates a maladaptive daydreamer from an intense daydreamer. I wanted to help anyone who may be confused 🙂
– The daydreams disrupt everyday life and cause a lot of distress to those with maladaptive daydreaming.
– If you are an intense daydreamer you will enjoy your daydreams but not to the point of becoming addicted and dependent on your daydreams.
Maladaptive means “ not adjusting adequately or appropriately to the environment or situation.” If you’re daydreaming because you like to and have a choice in weather or not you daydream, then you are a intense daydreamer. If you constantly daydream to escape something to the point where it disrupts your life then you are a maladaptive daydreamer.
truly NOTHING is a funnier phenomenon than when you see an extremely bad take on tumblr, start laughing at it, and then think “oh wait, a lot of kids use tumblr, maybe it’s just some 14-year-old who is a little misguided” so you go to op’s blog and it turns out they’re 33
“When Leilah Poulain painted a portrait of a penguin, her proud mother wanted to share it with friends and family. So Rebekah uploaded a photo of it onto an online folder to allow them to see it. But the 34-year-old accidentally uploaded it to a public file – which automatically entered Leilah, seven, into a national competition. The winner was offered the chance to have their work exhibited at the internationally acclaimed Saatchi Gallery in London. A year later, Rebekah was baffled when she received a call informing her the penguin had beaten 1,700 other entrants and been awarded first prize. Yesterday, Leilah’s painting – which was drawn when she was five – was hung in the same gallery featuring works from the likes of Damien Hirst and Tracey Emin.”
