something insane about like. binders becoming readily available. becoming merch like branded sports bras & boxers. like idk something crazy about it being normalized over the past couple years to the point that i could buy one from a fucking target with cash. my first was an underworks binder my friend who i met online bought for me and i checked the mail everyday for two weeks because i was so afraid my mom would find it and ask me what it was and how i got it. I used to wash it in the sink when everyone was asleep or at work. I cried the first time i put it on and my hands shook so badly and i did it in a locked bathroom alone and took it off when i heard the front door open. you can buy them from target.
how do people have consistent fun at parties . like don’t they get hit with periodic waves of debilitating melancholy and subsequently need to sit outside and think abt how they’re going 2 die alone . or is that just me and the guy from the National
a natural disaster happens in appalachia. i casually go on twitter. ppl are saying those in red states “deserve” bad things with no care for nuance or the fact that most of those people are incredibly misinformed and miseducated about governmental issues. one of my great aunts is staying in a dollar store and my family is being evacuated from their homes, hopefully to safe places. i hate it here.

Also included is a mushroom, an opossum wearing a cowboy hat and flipping the bird, cornbread, and a cast iron skillet. /end ID]
