There's A Thing About Adolescence - You Never Realize How Much It's Figuring Out Who You Are Until You
There's a thing about adolescence - you never realize how much it's figuring out who you are until you get there. Adults can tell you as many times as they want that your time as a teenager is going to shape your way of thinking and feeling, and who you are forever, but you never really get what they mean until you realize as a teenager that you can suddenly think about things so much more freely. You can consider things more than you ever realized before. You don't just believe what your parents say, you do research, look through the internet, talk to people, and formulate your own opinions. I did that with my religion. I talked to people, I did research, and I concluded that I agree with my parents. But I've also done research, talked to people, and come to the conclusion that the school system needs to change. That climate change is absolutely real. That we need to focus on different things in society. So, don't call me "just a kid." I'm not just a kid. No one is just anything. No kid, whether they've had this wild realization you're not, is just anything. I'm a teenager. I'm a girl. I'm a christian. I'm a brunette. But not just any of these things. I am these things, but none of them are all limitation. There are a little bit of who I am.

You are not running out of time. You can let a few things pass you by, okay? God won't let His plan do that.
Is this a problem?
On November 7, 2024, Denmark used a racist, culturally biased "parenting competency" test to remove a 2 hour old baby, Zammi, from her loving indigenous Greenlandic Inuit mother, Keira, because her native language, which uses minute facial expressions to communicate, will not be able to "[prepare] the child for the social expectations and codes that are necessary to navigate in Danish society." This test had been recommended not to be used at the federal level before this happened but certain municipalities, including the one this happened in, chose to continue to use it regardless. Not only is this blatantly racist but also violates multiple declarations and conventions that Denmark has signed that protect the rights of indigenous people.
Please sign this petition to help Keira to get her baby back.
My favorite thing about comics is when they have a funny part but are drawn with all the same dramatic angles and shading as a life-altering world-ending event
I'm forever thinking about the time Dick lived in Chicago and for like two issues straight a secondary conflict for him was that his roommates kept closing his bedroom window while he was out as Nightwing

My entire attitude towards grammar
people think writers make good English teachers but the opposite is true. sixth grader asks why she can’t start a sentence with “and” and im like idk girlie grammar is a construct and language is a fluid gelatinous animal. people used to write “thou” and they were being totally unironic about it. start your sentences with an exclamation point for all i care. a+
