a short fanfiction about my url, ponderingamelias, by anonymous:
the doctor wondered why there are so many amys. and why they’re all sitting, staring thoughtfully into space and time, thinking about life and how they could possibly all exist at once. then he shrugged. more peculiar things have happened all the time.
POLICE TELEPHONE FREE FOR USE OF PUBLIC ADVICE & ASSISTANCE OBTAINABLE IMMEDIATELY HOVER TO OPEN
In Spanish it’s machoplantear which is a combination of macho “male” and plantear(se) “to lay out (an idea) / to consider”
We could have had hombrexplicar [hombre “man” + explicar “to explain”] and I’m not sure why we didn’t? Some peopple disagree over which is better.
The noun form is el machoplanteamiento “mansplaining”
My guess is“hombrexplicar” doesn’t capture the critique of “machismo” in quite as pointed a way; that is, “machoplantear” points directly at the problem/the term already generally used to discuss problems of masculinity.
Anyway, I’m delighted by all of this.
You make a very good point
in hebrew it’s הסגברה / hasgvara - basically a mashup of hasbara (explaining, but also carries the implication of ‘propaganda’) and gever = man

we feed her, Jasmine just loves looking at daddy’s tattoos. I think it
helps her digest😂. Can’t wait to one day explain to her what all this
means. Chat about her cultures (Samoan, Armenian, African American and
Italian). And while these symbols may appear to be primitive,
unsophisticated and crude - they’re extremely sacred, thousands of years
old and very powerful. My mana (strength). Ironically enough the symbol
she’s fixated on is our ATUA (our God) protected by the small building
blocks of my life and then by shark teeth.
More proof that Dwayne Johnson is basically a perfect human. I’m glad that this beautiful little girl is growing up with so many cultural heritages. Glad that Dwayne is so proud of the culture of his grandfather. Glad that he is exposing her to that even now.
when ppl are like but taylor wrote a song about kanye too !! ! 1!!
taylors song about kanye:
kanyes song about taylor:
also lets just note that taylor wrote her song after kanye literally ruined her first ever vma win when she was only 19 and she could have written an angry song, but instead she forgave him and wrote him a beautiful fucking anthem and kanye wrote this song after they had seemingly become friends and tbh what even was the point? my guess is for headlines bc taylor swift made taylor swift famous
Social anxiety level: “mentally rehearsing the word ‘Here!’ over and over before the professor calls your name during roll call”
Social Anxiety level: holding all your money from the moment you walk in the door so when you get in line to pay u don’t have to waste everyone’s time
Social anxiety level: Being done with your test before anyone else but not wanting to get up and walk to the front of class, so you wait until someone else stands up.
Social Anxiety level: Editing the fuck out of everything you say mentally, so that you don’t come off as annoying for saying too much by including unnecessary details no one asked for or care about.
It’s ridiculous that I’ve done these things all my life and never even realized it wasn’t normal
