“Am I weak?” she asked. “Because no matter how much I wanted to, I can’t just let the tears fall down. No matter how much my heart is aching, I can’t just let it all out.” she sighed and continued, “Am I weak? No? Yes? Or maybe…” she paused because she doesn’t want to admit it. She doesn’t want to make it sound so real. But then, she finally said, “…I’m just emotionally tired.”
just to clarify theyre epic and capitalists would kill you for a single cent if they could
capitalists have and do kill people for unionizing and striking. rockefeller had entire families killed for it, and chiquita has been fined for using death squads to kill union leaders.
I would like to personally apologize to every teacher whose projects I overthought as a kid to the point that I could barely do them
5th grade teacher: alright class! This week we’re going to be doing something a little different! I want you all to focus on helping others, then you should write down every good deed you’ve done in your notebooks!
10 year old me, absolutely overthinking the shit out of this: but it feels wrong to do good deeds only to gain something in return, isn’t it inherently bad if my reason for helping isn’t just to help but so I can boast about it in a notebook?
Teacher: just… Just do the project please
8th grade teacher: alright class, please write a letter from the view of a person experiencing this historical event
14 year old me, staring at my paper: how am i supposed to do that when we only summed up what happened? what are the details someone experiencing this would focus on? what were the opinions of people about that? what words that are long since out of fashion would I use? what was the culture like back then and what references would someone make? If I don’t do it it sounds unrealistic and fake can we please do more research first
I used to think i was introverted bc I really liked being alone but it turns out I just like being at peace & I am very extroverted when I’m around people who bring me peace
