    I love these because it give us a glimpse into oldschool metaphors that were so, so obvious at the time. Like of course you’re going to slap down some mussels on that hell talk because it’s an unclean abomination.

    And of course you’re gonna give a pregnant women a pomegranate, and make sure jesus has a pelican. Why wouldn’t jesus be hanging with a pelican? If not, at least make sure he’s holding a fish and there’s a shepherd in there somewhere.

    The illuminaries were memelord shitposters.





  • It goes deeper than that, too.

    Pop culture painting dads as irresponsible parents comes from the idea that women are natural caregivers while men are just boys who work. It’s a cultural bias that still affects legislation and custody rulings, and why it’s a goddamn fight to get changing table in men’s public washrooms.

    Funny drunk dad meme is just the scum on the surface of a shitty lake.










  • Speaking as someone with recurrent severe depression, my closest friends are the ones who harass me with their love. That said, I would never want someone to try to reach me through my family. Her situation might be different.

    Depression is very isolating, it can make you feel unworthy of being around people because you can’t be fun, and you get anxious about making “mistakes.”

    My favorite people are the ones who randomly show up, drag me out, ask me for help with something (introvert cheat code,) and buy me games without asking so we can play together.

    If she’s an adult, she’s capable of telling someone to back off if it’s too much.
