Well, I’d already basically stopped using tumblr, because it turns out it’s been eating most of my allotted bandwidth each month, but now I’m basically done here after this latest staff fuck up. Catch me on twitter and maybe pillowfort if someone shoots me an invite? I’ll post here again once I’ve made a non-private twitter account, but if you are a mutual and over 18 follow me here: https://twitter.com/Lilyisamonster
We are four LGBT girls living in Washington State trying to get an apartment of our own by March 2019. Two of us have jobs so once we get an apartment paying rent monthly won’t be a problem, but the large amount of money necessary upfront is a huge hurdle for us. We are all fairly young and poor so none of us have any credit or much in the way of savings. Most places require a ~$50 application fee, some form of security deposit, and since we have no credit they’ll usually want the first month’s rent upfront
Rent for a two bedroom apartment around here is between $1,400-$1,800 a month not including utilities. Washington State and the Seattle area specifically is having a housing crisis, but it doesn’t seem that these prices are going to go down anytime soon. There basically is no such thing as affordable housing here anymore
Thank you so much for any help you can give
Since I made this post the two of us who had jobs have lost them. While the two of them look for new jobs we are really desperate right now. The house we are staying in gets more toxic and unwelcoming everyday and I don’t know how much longer we can live like this
The person who owns the house we are staying in just got back from a month in California and /as soon/ as she gets back she starts obsessively checking how much of the internet has been used hunting down who’s used it when and for how much and just hitting me hard in the face with why I want to get the fuck out of this house
She’s mad at me for downloading Destiny 2 (~90gb) while she was away even though her and two of our other roommates all downloaded Destiny 2 a few months ago (and that same month she downloaded Horizon Zero Dawn (~40gb) and Doom (~60gb) so clearly it’s the end of the world that I downloaded a single game *fart noise*)
trans-mom asked: I know I don't talk to you as much as I should but I love you so much, you're so fucking hot babe, and when money stabilizes I'm coming out there to qieeze you till you can't breathe no more
You big fucking cutie! I love you too! <3 <3 <3
The fact that much of the population must be labeled “mentally ill” to explain why so many individuals are not mentally or emotionally equipped to handle the gruelling mindset & method of action capitalism necessitates just goes to show how horrifically unnatural a system it is. It’s not us. It’s never been us

I love ancient religions because often, in the source material, the death and death-adjacent deities are like chill as fuck.
My favorite example is Hades. He gets the Underworld mostly because his younger brothers put their fingers on their noses and said “not it.” So like a good big-bro he goes down there and proceeds to basically be the god of bureaucracy.
He gets everything set up so he doesn’t actually have to do anything. Thanatos is the God of Death (also chill as fuck) and he’s the one who ends lives (but only off the shopping list the Fates give him), Hermes’ psychopomps are the ones who bring the souls down, it’s three dead guys who are the ones to judge your soul, and the fearsome three-headed guard dog… Hades named him Spot.
All the shitty stuff that goes on in Tartarus (Hell), yeah, that’s mostly Zeus’ doing. Hades doesn’t come up with the punishments, just provides the acreage. And when gods come down and want to bring people back to life (often after some god has gotten them killed), Hades is like “nah man, paperwork is finished, transfer’s complete, let them have their rest, find someone else to be your punching bag.”
As for the whole Persephone thing, that is a strange one. I’m like 85% sure the story is mostly Demeter propaganda because that goddess is not chill as fuck. I mean, I guess Hades could have kidnapped Persephone with serious malicious intent, but then did a 180 after realizing he was being a total d-bag. Because, seriously, he pretty much lets Persephone take over everything. Like, everyone knew who wore the pants in the Underworld, the motherfucking Iron Queen herself.
And as much as I love Hades in the Hercules animated movie because of the perfect comedic timing of James actually-a-horrible-human-being Woods, yeah, Hades couldn’t give a crap about what everyone else was doing. He often stayed neutral in wars, be it between mortals or gods, mostly because death does not discriminate, all souls end up with him in the end.
When it comes to the Underworld, Hades is basically the equivalent of the general manager who pokes his head in now and again to make sure nothing is on fire. The rest of the time he’s playing with his shiny rocks because being Lord of the Underworld meant he also had domain over gold, silver, gemstones, basically all the pretties.
Hell, Hades needs an actual Helm of Fear in order to be intimidating because otherwise, yeah, nope. I like to think of him as Skinny!Steve whist his brothers are like, well, Jason Momoa’s Aquaman (aka Poseidon). Let’s face it, Momoa could kick your ass just by looking at you sideways and may actually be a demi-god.
So, please, if you’re writing Hades in anything, don’t make him out to be the modern idea of Satan or Lucifer. He’s really just an introvert with high functioning organizational skills who loves rocks and women who can kick his ass.

I don’t understand. Do people really not know that “mayochup” is just fry sauce and that it’s been around forever?
I mean chop up some pickles and throw it in and you’ve got thousand island dressing/Mac sauce
the name “fry sauce” is still pretty localized. I hadn’t heard of it until this post, and it sounds like it’s mainly a Utah/Idaho thing. Mixing ketchup and mayo either on a sandwich or as a dipping sauce is definitely an older thing, but overall is limited to various regional and cultural pockets—it isn’t something known nationwide, much less globally.
here in the South, we didn’t call it fry sauce, but we got a regional thing where it’s mayo, ketchup, mustard, and pickles
I’m from the south too, but I don’t think I’ve heard of the sauce you are talking about?
But the only reason I know about the fry sauce name is because I watch a lot of food Network shows in high school
But my point is that it’s been around forever, just under different names, but people all over the internet are acting like it’s a new thing that is also disgusting and weird
