I’ve seen a lot of this on Tumblr lately, so this is for all of you (including me) who want to run around in jean shorts all summer but feel like you can’t because of some intangible socially conscribed idea of what bare legs are ‘supposed’ to look like.
(Of course, some people have their own perfectly good reasons for wanting to cover up, and that’s just as fine).
Rocking shorts and skirts this summer.
Showing off my tattoos and stubble and scars.
Fuck em.
Go go flabby pale legs! :P

There are going to be people in your life who need help. And while I think you should help them as best you can, that’s the key to it: as best you can. At the end of the day, you’re a person. You can provide support and love, but not change. That’s up to them.
And sometimes it’s going to reach a point where you can’t help anymore without hurting yourself. And when that happens, you have to step back and look after yourself too. You are your own first priority.](http://25.media.tumblr.com/4387644e02cf75f47f24d9ea32085899/tumblr_mn0x41WUp91rxqd36o1_500.jpg)

Let’s be clear—-this is not “love” pronounced as “wub.” That would be saccharine. Triceratopses just say “wub.” Well known science fact.
At least, the young ones do. The older ones say “gronk.” Stegasaurs say “moo.” Anklyosaurs go “Hmmph!” and ignore you thereafter.
Look, I don’t make the rules. - Ursula Vernon
