anyone else really kinda scared about the outcome of tomorrow
I just keep thinking about how I felt on election night 2016 at around 10pm when it started looking bad and when I started crying around midnight and when it was announced he won around 2am and I was crying so hard I made myself physically sick out of pure terror
and I think about all of the horrible things he and his people have done over the last 2 years and of all the things they have promised to do if they win again and my hands shake and I’m filled with a dread that hasn’t left me since he announced he was running for president over 3 years ago
so while I anxiety myself to sleep I ask that every one please consider why voting matters to you and if it doesn’t then please think about why it matters to me
my life as a woman and as a lesbian are on the line tomorrow
the lives of people of color, trans people, jewish people, disabled people, muslim people, immigrants, refugees, people who have the audacity to be a human with human illnesses
the life of our very planet is at stake here
please
if not for you then for everyone who needs you
Today my professor told me every cell in our entire body is destroyed and replaced every seven years. How comforting it is to know that one day I will have a body that you will have never touched.
This just made me feel so warm.
thank you.
Important especially for victims of abuse, remember your body is yours and it heals in more ways than you realize.
Okay, so I just want to say that this isn’t necessarily true. Most of your cells have died and regrown several times in seven years, but some haven’t, and some have died and won’t return. The seven year cell renewal is a myth perpetuated by popsci in magazines everywhere.
That being said, anywhere they may have touched you, your skin, your hair, your nails and so on, was changing the moment they departed your life, even before that. Your skin became skin they’ve never touched within 27 days. Your hair grows (on average) six inches per year, so depending on how long yours is, you were rid of their touch there within a few years tops. Your nails will completely regrow within six months tops. You were a body they never touched within three or four years. You will be a body they never touched within three or four years.
You have been rewriting your body, you are your own, you are constantly changing, and you are the only one who owns your body 100% of the time.
I’m here for correcting science myths in supportive ways.
