At some point you have to stop giving your everything to people who only take and don’t give anything in return. Eventually you’ll be left with nothing and those undeserving people won’t even appreciate all you’ve given. It’s okay to put yourself before others some times. Take care of you.
“I’m at synagogue on Saturdays, but if my pager goes off, I drive in to the hospital, because saving a life supersedes the Sabbath. Many people I meet believe that my faith is at odds with my career. But my work allows me to practise the medicine that interests me while helping a marginalized community. I deal with patients who, by and large, have had negative experiences with hospitals and the health care system, and I give them the care they deserve. That is very much in line with my religious practice.”
“And that is the real source of discomfort: many Orthodox people see gender-affirming surgery as an admission that God made a mistake. They see me as calling God out on that mistake by correcting it. Which is odd: nobody’s accusing God of screwing up someone’s pancreas when they have diabetes or suggesting it’s a sin to inject insulin.”
when you’re a kid and you’re feeling weird and detached and you fall asleep in the late afternoon with school clothes still on and you wake up and its dark and dinner is almost done and time feels like a thick jelly
thick jelly……I can’t believe someone put words to that feeling…….thank you
JK Rowling, writing under the name Robert Galbraith, has named a character in one of her new books after a misogynist that she regularly interacts with on twitter.
Brian Spanner is a British nationalist who has a fairly solid track-record when it comes to abusing women online.
JK Rowling gleefully interacts with the account and as previously alleged to being the owner of the account.
The sad story of a writer struggling to remain relevant trying to trolling her audience. Genuinely pathetic stuff.
