I appreciate how o no banana committed to saving the beetles.

I don't think I'd recommend chilli peppers with your user name.

We use a lot of herbs, garlic and mustard traditionally.

I see where you're at with the "too emotional".

I'm look both ways before I cross the road and I've never been hit.

I have been subject to male shittiness (catcallling, groping, abuse and physical abuse when rejecting advances) and I still go about in the world but I will mitigate my risk by keeping myself as safe as possible (let friends know where I am, be on the phone, don't wander around in the dark dressing how I would choose) pulling out the fawn flight or fight when required.

Do you see the imbalance here? The media do not make more of male violence on women than there is. It's not sensationalised, if anything it is downplayed. We barely hear about any of it. https://www.unodc.org/documents/data-and-analysis/statistics/crime/UN_BriefFem_251121.pdf

The patriarchy hurts everyone.

I sent this to my scientist as meme sharing love language and he's gone on an enormous rant about how wrong it is. That's the last time I try and share anything ionic. (Although apparently sharing ions is fine etc etc blah blahrant)

Nodding off in a chair after a big meal.

I saw a tiktok recently with an american explaining that people just don't finish the course of antibiotics so they have an emergency stash. FACEPALM.

Playa in a "is this me or another aspect of being chronically ill" way.

We're not ok. Nothing to do with seagulls tho.

If men and boys are finding current models of masculinity to be difficult - which is what Tate et al prey on - perhaps they have more in common with feminists. The patriarchy harms everyone.
