The thing they don’t tell you about fried egg runny yolk is that if you put it in a sandwich it will be the best most delicious thing and you can mop up the egg with the bread, but in exchange you Will get so so messy and covered in egg yolk
I’ve drawn most of D&D’s races in isotype pictogram / bathroom / safety sign style, for all your fantasy signage needs. You can use these however you like, but credit me if you can and don’t claim the unedited images as your own.
Also, if you’ve taken more than a high school economics course taught by someone who has never stepped foot in a college economics class,
Giving $500 to poor people multiplies it REALLY FAST. That $500 immediately goes into the economy and ripples more purchases until it hits a rich pocket.
Giving $500 to a billionaire takes $500 out of the economy permenantly. You could have set it on fire and made no difference.
That is such an important part of the conversation that rich people seem to purposefully misunderstand whenever it’s brought up
Money exists to be spent, not hoarded. Yes, people should have saving, but no one should be sitting on a pile of money too big to spend in a single lifetime. “The economy” as a concept only works if people are spending money, and the people hoarding the money are so quick to blame the people who barely have any when the economy starts to fail
Having a big string of numbers in an offshore account doesnt make you an economic genius, it makes you a parasite that is ruining the economy for everyone else
Einstein created his first theory at age 6, it was the theory that one could have infinite wishes by wishing for more wishes. He was the first to think of it.
sometimes i forget how reading is just. marvelous. just an absolutely fucking endlessly joyful activity. i’ll go about my life and not read one single book for months and be like why am i morose! why am i so apathetic! what is missing here!!!! and try to look for whatever it is that is lacking and never find it anywhere and i get so tired and sad and angry, and then i’m finally like i’m gonna stop everything for a couple days and read a really good book bc i don’t care about anything else. and suddenly i get motivated to work bc i know i’ll read when i’m on break. i get more creative. i want to watercolor again and bust out the shameful fabric stash with all my unfinished sewing projects. god even my dreams get more vivid!! what the fuck! and i’m like here is the magic i was looking for, why did i ever think i was going to find it anywhere else. it was always here!!!
Three cats died after their owners used an anti-inflammatory cream used to treat arthritis. The Food and Drug Administration warns to keep drugs away from pets; a tiny bit can be toxic.
Important for spoonies with cats!
Creams with Flurbiprofen are fatal to cats.
Brands that use this chemical (Not a complete list):
Myoflex Traumeel Capzasin
If you have cats, check your pain relieving cream for this, and keep them from ingesting it, please!
All NSAIDs are toxic to cats - this includes ibuprofen (Advil/Motrin), Aleve (naproxen), Voltaren – which also comes in a gel form – (diclofenac), Mobic (meloxicam), aspirin… If you’re unsure, ask your pharmacist or check drugs.com.
Signed, your friendly local former pharmacist
Reblog and signal boost for this important PSA.
Use the cream, pet the cat, the cat washes itself and…
genuinely frustrated and upset about how much using neocities as a filehosting service is being spread everywhere. they disable hotlinking for non-html files for free accounts so it won’t even work properly for those purposes and even supporter accounts are asked not to be used as a file dump host directly by the website. neocities offers a service that no other website provides and that i think is extremely important, but they sure don’t make a ton of money doing it. please, please, do not use neocities as a filehost, they don’t want you to and i don’t want you to either. there is a reason they ask users not to
i’ve been using postimages.org as a filehost for a DECADE and it has always been super reliable. postimages has never let me down. it is a website designed to do one thing, host image files, and it does it well. highly recommend it!
I hate when people try to be some kinda funnyman in response to powerful art. Maybe you should just earnestly feel things once in a while, babe.
Oh, and adding to this…I also hate when people try to be some kinda funnyman in response to art that was earnestly done but maybe fell short of what it was trying to do or had a certain naivety to it…maybe you should just earnestly try to make things once in a while, babe.
Note how she states that it was more difficult to get permits to do this shit than actually coordinate the drones.
Companies will want to do more of this, but environmental/wildlife laws make it difficult. So, they’ll lobby to weaken them. Be vigilant. This woman accidentally said the quiet part loud. They won’t let that happen again - this is our only warning
Also tire iron is effective
A tire iron is ineffective.
Look, if someone was very irresponsible they’d look up drone parts and buy a set of 2.4GHz and 5GHz directional antennas (yagi or, not patch) and then get a set of 2.4GHz and 5Ghz noise generators (illigal almost everywhere) or look up how to make them (weirdly easy to do apparently) and then they would wait for the display to start and turn on their contraption with the antennas point towards the display. Because the drones would be communicated to from the main computer on either 2.4GHz or 5Ghz, a contraption like this would cause anything from a section, to all, of the drones losing communication and automatically landing. The fact that they waited until the display was in progress means that all that set up time would have been waisted so the rest of the show can’t go ahead and they’ll have to spend a few days checking everyone over.
Don’t do this. it’s very illigal to make a jamming device. Even though you’d be using a long range antenna so youd be safely far away and almost totally undetectable even to people beside you, especially if you hid it in a bag or small box. It’s very illigal. Don’t.
Another fun thing I do with customers - specifically parents of very small children who don’t know they’re alive yet - is directly imply I think the coffee is for the baby, not the parent. and lemme tell you, like 70% of parents eat that shit up. They immediately go along with the bit and start discussing it with their newborn child, while the baby just stares at us like 😮
gaara, typing out his twenty-third tumblr vent post of the night: im ugly and and my parents are dead which is probably the reason i was mildly unhinged in my youth
one time as a kid I forcefully shoved two magnets together, and these were the strong magnets my dad used in his shop to pick-up missing little metal bits, and I held them really tightly in the palm of my hand, went up to this one kid who legit said things like “I think black cats are bad, they should be drowned” and drew crosses on the notebooks of kids if she found out they didn’t go to church, I told her “Hey. I’m a witch. If you don’t stop trying to hurt animals and picking on kids, I’ll use my magic to throw you into the sky”, and when she dared to doubt my powers I told her that I had two “rocks” in my hand that I could send across the playground, then I opened my hand the the magnets shot off in two different directions (we were over in a spot that was empty, so no other kids were around, nobody got hurt), one of them stuck to a drainpipe and the other stuck to a fence. This kid SCREAMED, and ran to the office, and I guess had her mom pick her up from school, and then she wasn’t there for a couple of days, finally her mom called my house and claimed I had “traumatized her daughter by performing a terrifying magic trick”, and when my parents asked what I did I just said “I showed her a magnet and she flipped out. She’s not gonna be happy when she finds out about gravity, either”. eventually this kid came back to school and always made a point to come up to me and say “Hey, my mom told me not to talk to you!”, and would just be like “Good job, you already screwed that up”
The people swallowing every bit of propaganda from corporations and politicians are here to tell you: their creative writing degree is why they’re so much smarter than you. Your ability to analyze the physical world is useless. All that matters are the abilities to write something nobody will pay to read and to call your critics racist with as many words as possible.
Notice they only ever reference the really old conspiracy theories that never went anywhere. The scoreboard on popular conspiracy theories is not that skewed in either direction. Plus, all of those Cointelpro-type examples were conspiracy theories first! Knowing that the government got away with evil things 30+ years ago isn’t the goal. Finding out and responding appropriately *soon after the events occur* is the goal. Holding someone accountable should be the goal. Plus, whether you know the specifics or not, you should be open to the idea that the organizations that repeatedly broke the law in the past would do it today.
yeah that Twitter thread might have been onto some semblance of a point but it rapidly became mired in self-congratulatory smugness.
the reason smart people believe in “conspiracies” is because they are intelligent, they have fun abilities like critical thinking and pattern recognition, they also are not persuaded to change their beliefs and opinions based on mean words and poor arguments. 😂
You saying that just gave me flashbacks to that part of reddit culture where somone gets gold out of nowhere and then edits their post/comment to say that exact kind of thing.
Boy am I glad I'm now on tumblr, where such an act is a declaration not of friendship, but of war.
Believe me, that is by far one of the most annoying parts of frontpage Reddit. It’s this strange sort of etiquette where if your post or comment gets popular then you have to act really surprised. It’s like “Edit: OH emGEEE!!!! WoAOW I could have NEEEEEVER expected this to get POPULAR!!!! thX 4 da GOLD xDDD”.
Reddit creates a false sense of community on its website through giving posts “gifts”, an idea that is basically meaningless. The only true emotion Redditors feel is an underlying contempt for everything else.
