Lion Hearted Girl

• • • •
Peel back my skin like pages of tiny printed words
Watch me fly away like flocks of tiny printed birds
• • • •
I say what I want, and I apologize when I'm wrong.
I love deeply, give openly and my home my own heart,
carried with me in my own chest. It's with me wherever
I go. My life is about adaptability, about surviving under
the hardest circumstances and doing it with a smile,
because that's just who I am. It's what I do.


Ask me anything (I'll probably lie)

What new dedication feels like.

Decided after two years of poverty that I’m finally able to afford good living, food and still have money left over to start paying debts. I have an appointment to pay my first $125 dollars to the department of education to post to my outstanding debts.

All this, because I want to go back to school, something I know I can do if I give myself time to prepare. This is the most serious I’ve ever gotten about this, and thinking about it just makes me smile!

Remmy is still trying to shed, but definitely feeling better after her bath.

I find it pretty amusing when people say that thunder is Mitch Lucker doing the ‘Lucker stomp’ in heaven and photoshop wings on photos of him etc. when he was very much opposed to God/heaven. I also find it very amusing when a lot of you say that Suicide Silence saved your life. Like, have any of you actually read the lyrics to their songs or what?

erh mah gerd u only live once so just go fucking nuts
how inspirational

While I do very much enjoy the musical aspect of their songs, the lyrics have always been something I choose to… Place aside when I listen. As a woman, and as such very against rape culture, I dont think I could stand to listen to them otherwise.

That being said, dont pretend like they meant something to you that they didnt. The man is dead and its a fucking tragedy okay? His death was a LOSS. But unless you are a family member, a friend, or one of the few people otherwise, its not YOUR god damn loss. Stop crying like the dude was your savior. I support this message completely. completely

Last year, a kid at work asked me to buy Världens viktigaste bok (“The World’s Most Important Book”). I looked it up and promptly bought it. Since then, it has been constantly lended out or in reservations, and only now have I had the opportunity to take it home and share a few pictures.
Sex ed books always get a dual reaction from the kids: “Ew, that’s gross!” and “Can I borrow it?” - quite often both from the same kid. :-) This has proven more popular than any of the others, which gladdens me, because it’s so good. It’s not just “Let’s tell the kids the basics about reproduction so they don’t get a shock when they enter puberty.” It’s “Let’s tell the kids everything we wish that we had been told in middle school.”


As you can tell from the pictures, it takes care to include a variety of bodies and sexual orientations. It also questions gender roles, portraying both the “factory” where boy things and girl things are packed into neat boxes, and the kids outside the factory trading with each other. The text is much the same. Take this excerpt, for instance:


“Many people who have a vagina feel like girls, and many who have a penis feel like boys. But it’s not always true. Sometimes the body doesn’t fit with how you feel. You can have a boy body but feel like a girl. Or have a girl body but feel like a boy. Your body doesn’t decide who you are, you decide it for yourself. You’re the one who knows if you’re a girl or a boy. Some people don’t feel like they’re boys or girls at all. Maybe you feel like both, or something else entirely. Or you don’t want to choose. There aren’t always words to fit with what you’re feeling, but that doesn’t make the feeling less true.”


The kids at work are conservative, as kids often are. (They have questioned both the fact that I’m still single, and the somewhat androgynous way I dress.) But they’re reading this stuff, in the library, in the classroom, at home. The school nurse, too, has recommended it as reading. I have every hope that for at least some of them, the message will be received.

I WANT THIS BOOK.

GOD BLESS SWEDEN

OH…

I’M FLAILING AROUND A LITTLE?? WHAT A WONDERFUL BOOK. So much better than what I got when I was that age, with barely a paragraph about homosexuals and absolutely nothing on trans* people or gender identity at all.

ALSO THE TEACHER IN THE THIRD TO LAST PICTURE HAS A ZELDA TATTOO??? OH MY GOD COULD THIS BOOK BE MORE PERFECT
