This is a blog.

I went and did that thing I promised myself I’d never do.

I grew up.

Not just in my body,

But in my heart too.

I got old.

And hard.

When I’m only thirty-two.

But I’m trying to soften

Think I’ll wait on my coffin

I’ll make coffee and cake for two

As someone who has personally had to take those calls, they do matter. It just doesn’t matter what you say in the call: the only way your calls actually reach the politician is a tally sheet of each call received on different topics. End of the day/week, the politician gets told “you had X many calls about people wanting you to do this, Y many calls about people wanting you to do this, etc.”
Individual calls matter little, but if they get tons of calls on one topic then they take it seriously. The example above was probably during a time where the office was flooded with so many calls at once that they took the phones off the hook, which actually means that calls are working especially well. When the phones are blowing up, everyone in the office notices.
The best call to your representative does not involve you making an impassioned and well-argued case, because you’re probably talking to an intern. The most effective call you can make takes 15 seconds: “I am from [place in your district] and I am very pissed about [topic].”
OI. PEOPLE IN THE THREAD. CAN WE REBLOG THIS VERSION PLEASE. DON’T STOP MAKING CALLS.
But also as another person further up says, don’t let your activism start and stop with phone calls either.
DON’T TRUST ANYONE WHO TELLS YOU NOT TO PARTICIPATE

romance should never feel unsafe, scary in a way that makes you feel in danger, sad in any way whatsoever or anxious and insecure in any way whatsoever. i mean this so seriously. look after your own heart. especially if you’re queer. i know it feels like our love is rare but it’s not true. that is a lie perpetuated so that we don’t experience it. joyous love will come to you, don’t settle for anything that doesn’t feel good. love is our liberation.

I think if we all work hard and really Gonvcharov it we could get Ron DeSantis to deny that he uses heat suppressants on national TV
Real Floridan Men are Accustomed to the Florida Heat and absolutely DO NOT require suppressants to behave in public
The mere suggestion that Good Ol Florida Boys are SO intolerant of the local weather is SLANDER and I will not stand for it!
im sorry to tell you this. but that’s not what heat suppressants are

eventually you realize you don’t want to die. you just don’t want to live the life you’re living. and slowly you try to create a life you want to live. just gotta start there.
no one needs to add “sounds fake but ok”, “no”, “well, not me”, “impossible”, etc. to this post. and i’d rather you not.
one day you think: I want to die.
and then you think, very quietly: actually. actually. I think I want a coffee. a nap. a sandwich. a book.
and I want to die turns day by day into I want to go home, I want to walk in the woods, I want to see my friend, I want to sit in the sun
I want a cleaner kitchen
I want a better job
I want to live somewhere else
I want to live
