Reblog to let your followers know that despite your current obsession your previous obsessions still exist and are simply lying dormant until they awaken and strike again
Maybe it’s not Daddy issues, but you got some issues if you’ve willing put the mark of Cain on yourself!
What other people put on their body is generally no one else’s business, and they do not have “issues” for doing something that has meaning to them. Don’t reblig shit to sound condescending about people you don’t know, regardless of what personal meaning that symbol has to you. Let people be people jesus christ

Eddie has the band over and they’re jamming together on a live-stream when Steve gets off work and interrupts them. He’s all smiles when he’s like, “Hey, guess what. One of my students called me the D-word today.”
Eddie; One of your students called you a dumbass and you’re happy about it?
Steve: No
Jeff: Then why are you smiling?
Steve: They didn’t-
Gareth: Did they call you a douchebag?
Grant: Dipshit?
Steve: Dad! One of my students called me dad today.
anarchists: i hate that our lives are largely controlled by arbitrary authorities who use covert threats and overt violence to maintain their positions of power. it’s really bad and i would prefer if we could all just exist without having to exert systemic power over others like that.
dozens of chucklefucks crawling out of the woodwork: explain to me right this fucking second the exact details of how you personally will maintain the supply chain for insulin, or you hate disabled people and your ideology is actually fascism
Impeccable tags on this one, well done folks
These tags do nothing but avoid the question. You’re just complaining about people who bring up a point you don’t have an answer to.
girl this has been addressed by people like anarcblr and anarchapella like…several times at this point. But i’ll re-write it for you really clear, just this once, because I want them to be visible on this post.
Your Argument: Anarchy would interfere with the ability of diabetics to obtain insulin. Therefore, anarchists are either naive or outright malicious.
My Response:
1. Diabetics are already having a very hard time obtaining insulin–that is, even with current supply chains and infrastructure in place, 50% or more of diabetics worldwide don’t have adequate access. [source] So this is not a new problem that would be created by anarchy after/during some theoretical revolution, but one that already exists. This problem is made worse, rather than better (as those tags point out), by capitalism and the government, two things that anarchists famously oppose.
2. You’re starting from the idea of some kind of ‘anarchist revolution’, where anarchists go around instituting+enforcing new rules and (somehow) these negatively impact insulin availability. That’s just not accurate. Anarchism is not about imposing specific rules, but about removing barriers to you and your friends choosing your own rules. It’s about empowering you, as well as everyone else, to control your own self and nobody else.
This is a big part of why nobody will give you a “straight answer”, anarchism is not about creating plans for other people to carry out in the future. It is about encouraging people to create their own plans to address the present. Ergo, there isn’t the same emphasis on ‘waiting for the rev’ and ‘after the revolution’ that many statist communists have–instead, there’s a call to address conditions in a radical way right now, to reduce capital and govt’s hold on us now. I have friends who I talk to about this stuff all the time, trying to think of ways to meet medical needs with resources we’ve already got access to outside of capitalism.
3. People (some of them anarchists) are already working really hard to make insulin more available! The Open Insulin Foundation for example, who are “working to develop the first practical, small-scale, community-centered model for insulin production to make insulin accessible to all.” There’s also the Four Thieves Vinegar Collective, who aren’t working on insulin specifically, but do have some other medicines they’re developing in an open-source way. Not to mention–all the people who are already making insulin right now? and all their equipment, and all their supplies? Those aren’t going to magically disappear. If those people didn’t have to worry about paying their bills (if anarchists helped them meet their other needs, perhaps?) why shouldn’t they share that knowledge and experience in return?
tl;dr your point about medicine in anarchist communities is fundamentally based on some incorrect assumptions about how anarchism works. if you wanna talk more about community medicine and explore more solutions, totally message me! As an anarchist dependent on medications for a couple chronic conditions, it’s a subject I think about a lot.
It’s less a matter of “holy shit after The Revolution how will I get my meds? :(” and more a matter of “damn, right now i have to work so I can even afford to buy my meds, depending on a fragile supply chain with humanitarian crises at its base. Let’s figure out a way to get around all that so we can all live better lives!”
People ask others to have a plan as if real well thought out plans don’t fail constantly, including the one that is the basis for all “modern societies”

Lots of people seem to think that the implementation of anarchy means that all physical infrastructure will be burned down, everyone will be forced out of their occupation no matter what they personally want and also the magical anarchy brain beam will remove knowledge and expertise from everyone’s brain.
I have no idea how to make insulin, I have no idea how to maintain a suplly chain, heck I don’t even know how much one person needs or if it needs to be cooled. But there are people who know all of those things and no part of anarchy aims to change that.
Also one major point of anarchy is that there very specifically is not one single person with an answer to everything. Asking “But how would you personally decide everything?” is missing the point so entirely. It’s like asking “But how do I pay for things?” when someone proposes a society without money.
listen st4 ROBBED us of so so so much, but really I think the the biggest travesty is the fact that we never got platonic Harringham. Like, of course, platonic Stobin is so perfect in every way- i worship it really- and i don’t mean to minimize that AT ALL but like.

Chrissy wearing her whole cheer uniform to his meets and sitting on the edge of the bleachers every time he’s in the pool, palms sweating as he flies through the water- Robin and Eddie went to go get McDonald’s an hour ago- eyes darting from his silhouette to the clock and back again, muttering under her breathe, “Come on, Steve, come on!”
Chrissy screaming when he wins, running to the edge of the pool to grab him, even though he’s soaking wet and she spent so long on her hair and “Holy shit, you did amazing!”
Steve making his own sort of cheer uniform to wear to her competitions, always driving her to them so he can hype her up in the car on the way. Calling “You’re a god, you can crush ‘em with your thighs!” as they split up so she can go to the dressing rooms backstage.
Steve leaping to his feet in the audience to clap the second she’s finished, whether it’s a team dance or a solo, or a duo-She’s the only one worth watching- whistling and cheering for her so loud, it would be a phenomenon if she didn’t hear him.
idk
just let Steve have another bisexual jock bestie who won’t make fun of his interests. Who knows how much he wants this, who knows how hard it is.
lmao so i was just going through my camera roll and clearing some photos out, when i stumbled across this screenshot i took in january of 2020 and…

i’m in shock. i literally don’t know how i forgot this happened, like i was actually astounded when i found this. NEVER forget when steve rogers’ ending was so horrifically out-of character that SEBASTIAN STAN HIMSELF posted a screenshot to instagram of a tweet dogging on his ending. it’s been years and i still haven’t forgiven marvel. i don’t think i ever will.
