i’ve been learning how to use [ thou / thee / thy / thine ] and it sounded really confusing at first because all of the websites i found would be talking about things like whether you’re the subject or object and blah blah blah and it just made it sound really complicated
but as it turns out it’s not
in fact, you already know the rules for how to use [ thou / thee / thy / thine ] because it’s the same as [ i / me / my / mine ] (they even rhyme – me/thee, my/thy, and mine/thine)
the only difference is an archaic rule for “mine” that has since fallen out of use, the very same rule that we use for [ a / an ], which basically boils down to “if it comes before a vowel, add an [ n ]”
observe:
i gave him a gift // thou gave him a gift
he gave me a gift // he gave thee a gift
this is my chair // this is thy chair
this chair is mine // this chair is thine
and
this is a pear // this is my pear // this is thy pear
this is an apple // this is mine my apple // this is thine apple
it’s as simple as that.
shower. not a bath, a shower. use water as hot or cold as u like. u dont even need to wash. just get in under the water and let it run over you for a while. sit on the floor if you gotta.
moisturize everything. use whatever lotion u like. unscented? dollar store lotion? fancy ass 48 hour lotion that makes u smell like a field of wildflowers? use whatever you want, and use it all over.
put on clean, comfortable clothes.
put on ur favorite underwear. cute black lacy panties? those ridiculous boxers u bought last christmas with candy cane hearts on the butt? put em on.
drink cold water. use ice. if u want, add some mint or lemon for an extra boost.
clean something. doesn’t have to be anything big. organize one drawer of ur desk. wash five dirty dishes. do a load of laundry. scrub the bathroom sink.
blast music. listen to something upbeat and dancey and loud, something that’s got lots of energy. sing to it, dance to it, even if you suck at both.
make food. don’t just grab a granola bar to munch. take the time and make food. even if it’s ramen. add something special to it, like a hard boiled egg or some veggies. prepare food, it tastes way better, and you’ll feel like you accomplished something.
make something. write a short story or a poem, draw a picture, color a picture, fold origami, crochet or knit, sculpt something out of clay, anything artistic. even if you don’t think you’re good at it.
go outside. take a walk. sit in the grass. look at the clouds. smell flowers. put your hands in the dirt and feel the soil against your skin.
call someone. call a loved one, a friend, a family member, call a chat service if you have no one else to call. talk to a stranger on the street. have a conversation and listen to someone’s voice. if you can’t, text or email or whatever, just have some social interaction with another person. even if you don’t say much, listen to them.
cuddle your pets if you have them/can cuddle them. take pictures of them. talk to them. tell them how u feel, about your favorite movie, a new game coming out.
With a fire going and drinking a warm beverage while snow falls softly outside.

I want to be a housewife not out of some misguided essentialist beliefs but out of introversion and hatred for work it really is that simple
these are actually mine for once <3
Friendly reminder that ICE still existed under Biden, that there were still countless people deported under Biden, that if the democrats had one and the same deportations that are happening now happened, you likely wouldn't have heard about it at all.
If you suddenly care about the rights of immigrants the moment that a republican is in office, you don't actually care about immigrants. Like, I'm happy more people are calling out ICE raids now, but it's upsetting knowing that the exact same people would be defending and/or ignoring them if these were happening under a different president.
Please, there is going to be a time when Trump is out of office. And ICE will likely still exist and still be deporting massive amounts of people when that happens. If you actually care about human rights, and not just hating a specific guy, you're going to have to hate ICE just as much once he's out of office.
Little things to keep in mind 💕
