Random Old Memes and ✨Stuff✨

Got sick of bigots, and pedants, and trying to figure out if something is “meme enough” to count, and of feeling like I’m spamming other spaces, and very quickly of the lemmy UI too (still love you blahaj.zone!) so am opening my own space where I can make my own rules and post my collection in peace. ❗BE WARNED: SOME OF THE IMAGES YOU SEE HERE MAY NOT TECHNICALLY BE MEMES❗ Now that we got that out of the way, let the infodump commence! Expect a mix of slightly outdated: mostly leftist (but never tankie) content, many cats, and some general old memes I’ve collected over the years. There are many, so will try to mix it up! Update: looks like 🐝Beehaw🐝 have banned this magazine. If you want real leftism rather than "nice" (more like "unchallenging to the status quo and the comfort of libs") leftism, I guess you'll have to follow from elsewhere!

post by Summer Innanen:

I'm hyper-aware of how our culture praises the superwoman - the woman who can manage being a mom, a career person, a health- enthusiast, while maintaining a pinterest-worthy home - and how this obsession with doing it all starts to impact the pressure we put back on ourselves.

I've decided I'm here to praise the people who rest.
The ones who set firm boundaries.
The ones who say no.
The ones who ask for help.
The ones who admit they don't have it all together.
The ones that choose the messiness of life instead of trying to keep everything polished and pristine.

This is the kind of superwoman I am here for.

Will do, because unlike you, I look at myself for improvement, not the nameless of society forcing me to buy flashier things.

Clearly. Yep. Sounds like you typed that and reread it to yourself in the mirror, too.
