I haven’t been on tumblr for quite as long as a lot of people but over several years I’ve noticed this interesting gradual sorta,, shift in the general culture? that it went from this mostly depressed, nihilistic outlook where people would regularly joke about hating themselves and being hopeless and depressed, to a wave of vehemence of “STOP hating everything actually the world is Good and you deserve love!!!” type posts, to now, where those aggressive ‘PSAs’ have faded away and instead I regularly see people romanticizing simple things like stars and hot tea and rainy mornings, and waxing poetic about their friends, and just trying to put love out there. and I don’t know exactly what that means (someone who knows more than me could probably say something smart about generational expression and trauma or popular perception of mental health and whatnot), but I do know that it makes my heart very full to see people learn to love the world and themselves by extension, and a whole userbase adopting healthier coping mechanisms, and therefore teaching the younger users to do so as well. I might just be following different people, but I really do think we’ve grown. everyone has grown. five years ago it wasn’t unusual for the next post on my dash to be a scathing commentary on why nothing matters or an anon ripping into someone they barely knew or someone complaining about how pathetic their interests are. now I have mutuals who get excited and spam reblog art of cows and friends I see tagging each other in pictures of frogs and strangers writing paragraphs about how much I matter. it makes me happy. idk. just an observation I wanted to make. I think people are good and everyone’s just trying their best at the end of the day

A boy can dream, can't he?

Yeah Mr. Darcy’s proposal was a complete turd and a half but you gotta understand. You got your life together. A good career, stable income, retirement plan, all that shit together. And you meet this girl. And she’s everything. Clever, outspoken, funny, calls you on your bullshit. Grade A cutie, right? And she doesn’t go out of her way to spend time with you but she’s nice, and sometimes you catch her looking your way in a way that makes you think you might have a shot.

But her family. Holy shit.

First off, it’s p much ALL women, and mostly UNMARRIED women, which at this time means of something happens to her dad then you’re financially responsible for like. Four grown ass adults, potentially forever

Because mom in law is DEFINITELY gonna need someone to take care of her when dad in law kicks it, and they have like. NO money. So already you’re accepting that if all goes well, you’re gonna be one random old bag’s retirement home. That’s expensive and exhausting, yeah? Imagine asking someone on a first date knowing that if they say yes and things go good her high-strung chihuahua mother is gonna move in with you. IMAGINE.

And girly’s other sisters. Well, one is a sweetheart, yeah, so she probably won’t be an issue, but that still leaves three more, and two of those ones are INSUFFERABLE. Never went to school, dumb as rocks, spend cash like it’s toilet paper

And while one of the two is young still and might grow out of it the OTHER one is actively torpedo’ing her entire family’s reputation by wandering off with random dudes and chasing ass. She’s never gonna work, she can’t build connections, she’s a fucking sinkhole, and she’s being led on by the same goddamn con man ass leeching tit who’s been bleeding you dry while telling anyone who’ll listen that your family is full of ratty thieving bastards.

And if he dumps her after a week- WHICH YOU KNOW HIS BITCH ASS IS GONNA- you’ve got a SECOND UNMARRIABLE GROWN ASS ADULT TO PROVIDE FOR. And you KNOW she’s gonna be a tantrum-throwing little shit about it, and it’s not like you can lock her in the basement or something, you’re gonna have to bring her fucking. Everywhere. And give her an allowance and shit while she contributes zero, because again, she NEVER GOT EDUCATED AND HAS NO MARKETABLE SKILLS. She’s not even good to TALK to. FUCK

And you’re looking at this girl’s father like “please for the love of fuck get your spawn under control, marry them off, get them working on their résumé, learning to sew or be nursemaids or manage staff or SOMETHING, yall got no money and one foot in the grave” and that old man just laughs like “haha yeah, what can you do. lol”

So you’re looking to the mom and finally it’s making sense how she got that twitch in her eye and as MUCH as she is you’re starting to realize she’s the SMART one, desperately throwing her armloads of girls at random men like they’re a bunch of fucking lifeboats bobbing around a sinking ship, like yes Jesus Christ sweetly that life boat IS old and ugly and kind of boring but for FUCKS SAKE PICK ONE

And you look back at this girl who is ALSO REFUSING THE LIFE BOATS BY THE WAY and god damn it she’s still the most radiant thing you’ve ever seen so fine, fuck it, Christ alive, you’ll do it. You’ll shoot your shot. She’s everything you’ve ever wanted in anybody abut it’s not even just about that anymore, it’s about being her best fucking shot at a future, and even if she doesn’t like you all that much she’s still gonna say yes and that might break your heart a bit knowing it’s about the money but who knows, maybe it will at least be civil, or companionable, and even if she doesn’t LOVE you at least you’ll know she’s well and cared for

And so you’ll do it. You’ll take on the neurotic stress mess mother in law, the absent father, the broke ass wingnut no brain no money no future airhead sisters, the bad mannered relatives and the embarrassing behaviour and the impending future of sharing your entire shit with a clown parade of freeloaders, you’ll risk it all and accept the absolute certainty of financial ruin and emotional exhaustion for the rest of your whole ass life and you’ll make your own family deal with it too, you’ll do it, you’ll fucking DO IT, you stupid lovesick motherfucker

And so you go to this chick like “look. Your whole family’s a shitshow. You’ve got fucking nothing and you’re gonna die on the street. But for some reason- and I don’t get it either- I’ve fallen in love with you, and I wish I didn’t, but I did, so I’m telling you that whether you like me or not, I’ll give you everything. I’ll give you everything even if it’s the dumbest shit I ever done. Fuck my stupid Baka ass, I’ll marry you.”

And she looks at you- having heard or considered absolutely none of your months-long internal debate and monologue- and goes “The fuck did you just say about my family, you son of a bitch?”

And the shock of that is enough to jolt you back into a reality where you are able to actually hear and process what just came out of your damn mouth And yeah

Yeah, I think I kinda get it

It’s sad how much of what is taught in school is useless to over 99% of the population.

There are literally math concepts taught in high school and middle school that are only used in extremely specialized fields or that are even so outdated they aren’t used anymore!

I swear this post deserves to be considered a piece of national history or something

“In the end, it is ideas for which people kill each other”

— Think: a compelling introduction to philosophy by Simon Blackburn

I’ve got a bit more beef with politics (US and international) to get off my chest, and while I hope nobody gets mad at me over this, that isn’t likely. 

I don’t think that many people understand that while a huge difference in the changing political spectrum is changing morality, another issue that I think we have is that each side has a different agenda than the other but everyone wants everyone else to have their same agenda.

Some people are LGBTQ+, some are disabled, some are Christian, some are Muslim, some are family-oriented, some are pro-life, some are anti-gun. Most/all of it has to do with our experiences and how we have lived our life.

And the biggest problem isn’t that we have these differences, it is that we cannot work with other people who hold a different view of our agendas than we do. Two people who hold different views on the LGBTQ community cannot work together to help alleviate the suffering of those in poverty. People who hold differing views on how to alleviate suffering cannot work together over national security. 

And to the people who say that the other side wants them dead and so they cannot compromise with them on any issue unless they stop wishing you dead, I would like to say that people on the other side probably feel the same thing about the issues they care deeply about. This is what politics has come to now. 

This is my beef with politics at the moment. Possible solutions would be relearning how to see humanity in the other side, trying to see things from the other person’s perspective, and learning that you are not always right, but the likely hood of people starting to do that is slim. I am not perfect in this area; no one I know is perfect at doing this. But it would help, I think. I could be wrong. But as I look around, I wonder what this all would look like if we listened to each other’s experiences instead of instantly brushing people off if we disagree with them.

I don’t vote left or right. Perhaps I deserve to be beaten for that, at least according to some. But in my experience neither side makes me feel welcomed. However one side has made me feel more welcome than the other. Let me explain.

I don’t lean heavily either way. I would consider myself biblical conservative who thinks both sides have a few good ideas and a lot of horrible ideas. Of course, because I am conservative I’m accused of being a republican or right winger all the time.

My experience with the right: I’ve lost alot of friends, even within the church, over the political struggles. My old weekly group literally became so obsessed with Trump that they don’t accept anyone who doesn’t wear his merch and call themselves trumpettes(they are all women, their husbands all agree but it was the women who ran things in that group). They left the church for a more far right leaning church that celebrates Trump and America over Jesus. My parents are so far right that they can’t even stand to hear James and I discuss how right leaning policies of the past have actually hurt us. My mother called me a “dumb liberal” on her Facebook page because she thought I voted Harris instead of Trump. (I didn’t vote either). My uncle is horribly racist and a Trump supporter so extreme that every word from his mouth is praise for him and then mocking the left or wanting leftists to be gotten rid of. However this is only a few of the right leaning people in my life. Maybe 15 people at most. The rest of the right leaning people in my life have discussed politics with me and expressed their love for the other side. They make me feel welcomed and their love of Christ is so massive. They don’t care about where you fall on the political spectrum, they just want you to know you are loved. Their lives aren’t a shrine to Trump, but a banner for Jesus and His love and salvation.

My experience with the left: this is a tricky one because it’s been the opposite of the top. Where as the top there was only maybe 15 or so bad actors, with the left side I have only had 15 or so good encounters and hundreds of bad ones. In the left if you don’t think like the masses you are not allowed to have opinions. My religion has been targeted, and I’ve been told many horrid things because I choose to follow the Jesus of the Bible and not the Jesus people make up in progressive churches. I’ve been attacked for leaving conservative on my beliefs, which I base around the very words of God Himself. I’ve been attacked for not voting for Kamala Harris. I’ve been called racist, sexist, homophobic, transphobic, terf, nazi, bigot, and every fowl word you can think of. All because I don’t agree with the left ideas of gender politics, abortion, critical race theory, and other fast activism movements they subscribe to. I’ve been told to kill myself almost daily, get raped, and had people hoping I get drawn and quartered slowly by cars. (A real thing I was told btw). I’ve had people celebrate my brain tumor, telling me they hope I suffer and die from it slowly. They have celebrated my infertility. They celebrate my depression, anxiety and other mental disorders. They have been extremely ableist towards me as an autistic person. They tell me they hope my husband leaves me and I die alone. They have told me they want me to get cancer and die. They have told me I’m a waste of oxygen and they wish nothing but anguish on my life. They have called me every word for stupid, every word for retarded, every word for useless. They refuse to even hear me out 99% of the time, and if I do give an opinion it’s usually followed by dog piled death threats. Even had a few people tell me they fantasize about someone stabbing or shooting me in between my legs.

So all this to be said, I do lean a certain way. And it’s because of the way I’ve been treated. Left leaning people, take a look at yourselves and ask yourselves why you lost. I just listed every reason for you. If you ever want a seat of power again, maybe work on how you treat others. Because the tyranny you claim to fight you really seem to love.

Right leaning people also need to focus on the way Christ is represented. Because if people’s idea of Jesus is just Donald Trump- because that’s all church going people want to talk about- that’s not good at all. Jesus is not a politician, so stop trying to force him into the White House.

What does in defense of imago dei mean?

It's the foundation of my sense of justice and indeed entire worldview, a recognition that every human being is created uniquely in the image of God and deserves to be viewed from that perspective and treated accordingly. It largely aligns with the consistent life ethic but I think I apply the concept a bit differently, and the base motive is less about behaving ethically (though that is an important consequence) and more about aligning myself with God's point of view.

Then God said, “Let us make mankind in our image, in our likeness, so that they may rule over the fish in the sea and the birds in the sky, over the livestock and all the wild animals, and over all the creatures that move along the ground.” So God created mankind in his own image, in the image of God he created them; male and female he created them.
