I’ve got an inlaw who works in medicine who had a patient who was pissing BRIGHT blue, turns out they had a quack medicine enthusiast family member who was giving them methylene blue orally
free socially awkward men from automatic association with incels
ironically the idea of incels being “losers” is exactly what they want people to think. they’re innocent victims of society because they’re not stereotypical disney movie jocks, and that’s why they have to…commit mass murder
I don’t know why this keeps happening but I keep meeting toxic heterosexual couples who experiment with polyamory and are heavily into funko pops, board games, Disney princesses and Burlesque stripping and the man is always a withdrawn bearded dude and the woman is always a passive aggressive control freak with an Etsy shop that sells lawn gnomes styled after Dr Who characters and they don’t really even seem to like each other but they’re always exactly the same. this has happened four times
Why are fascists so much better at imagining left-wing utopias than we are?
Pro-Tip: If you want to show how your vision of the future is scary, maybe end it with “…everyone cries themselves to sleep” or something, rather than “everyone is happy.”
Kinda messed up how “some people are miserable” is part of the implied ideal world for these people, eh?
[ID: three gifs of Tippex the white and black rat snake, he’s flicking his tongue and looking around in the first two gifs and in the third he’s drinking and you can see his cheeks inflate as he takes gulps of water]
“Words matter. One death, one ripple. And history will change, in a blink. The future will not be the world you know. The world you came from, the world you were created in, will not exist. So neither will you. It’s not just his life at stake, it’s yours. Wanna sacrifice yourselves for this? Want me to sacrifice you? You wanna call it, do it now. All of you. Yeah. Cos sometimes this team structure isn’t flat. It’s mountainous. With me at the summit, in the stratosphere. Alone. Left to choose.”
“If you have time to be on social media, you also have time for…” “If you have time to watch Netflix, you also have time for…” Yeah, but do I have the energy for it? Do I have the emotional and mental capacity for it? Am I pain-free enough for it? Can I focus on it? Can I do it without leaving my bed? Can I safely do it without risk of (physically or emotionally) injuring myself by pushing past my boundaries?
seeing chara undertale get mischaracterized as an evil demonic being hellbent on wiping out monsters in the year 2024
how is this fandom smart enough to have a majority of people know and understand that kris is not inherently evil or malicious and that you’re just the one controlling them and using their powers for horrible things in the snowgrave route and yet simultaneously Not Smart enough to realize you are practically doing the same thing to chara in the no mercy route of undertale. question mark?
people will look at chara undertale and deem THEM as the villain and the ‘TRUE evil’ in the game whose sole focus is eliminating all life ever to exist when in reality chara undertale literally killed themself so that monsterkind would be free . do you remember that. do you remember that chara was a very mentally unwell child heavily implied to come from a background of horrific abuse who came to mount ebott to end their own life only to find a sense of belonging and community and that they died hoping that their act of self sacrifice could free the people they’d come to know as their true family. that with that knowledge it makes zero sense why they would be the mastermind behind all the damage you, of your own agency, choose to dish out in the no mercy route. when asriel says “chara wasn’t the best person” he is very evidently not implying that chara was some demon on this earth that torments anything that moves, he is merely saying that despite their status as a holy sacrificial lamb to monsterkind, they still had flaws as a person. they had vengeance against all humans, not monsters, and maybe if that was better managed it wouldn’t have resulted in them doing what they did. like dude i don’t know how to tell you this but every instance of Chara Being Scary And Creepy are YOUR doing, because when you reach the perfect ending of freedom for monsterkind chara ultimately strived for and then forever strip that away from them by killing everyone they love, they seriously have every right to last out at you for that. like do you not think undertales central theme of viewing people with compassion does not extend to what is essentially a mentally ill child fleeing from a life of violence and mistreatment at the hands of others just because They Made A Scary Face At you LIKE?????? ARE YOU INSANE
and re: chara having an undying hatred for humanity. that IS a core aspect of their character. ANDDDD it DOESNT make them evil. what people Always Always miss is that that hatred for all other people is very common from children from broken homes, like of course when you come to view violence as a means of inflicting power and you’re defenseless to fight back against it you are going to want to have that feeling of power for yourself just to feel like you Are Someone in this world. i feel like a big reason why chara went thru with their plan is that like. evidently asgore and toriel never really tried to dispute the worldview that humans are evil, because they as monsters have always lived in fear of humans. it’s just that they see chara as a child first and a human second. their status as a human being is of less importance to the dreemurrs because they have a child and they know the importance of keeping a child safe and THATS why they’re so compassionate towards chara to begin with. and the fact that asgore and toriel maybe didnt do a lot to quell charas hatred of humanity does not make them bad people and it does not make them evil. it only makes them flawed. tldr Leave This Poor Kid Alone Whats Your Problem
Do you kids know how hard it is to hyper fixate on shit as a goddamn adult?? Sorry boss I know you need those files done but I’m too busy giggling like a goddamn school girl over a fictional man
Something about this is so genuine and funky. It feels so natural that if I heard the correct lyrics it wouldn’t process as right in my brain. This man yelling about his green tea and watermelon sour patch kids fits so well with the live music playing in the background, the atmosphere, the whole situation. It’s like some reverse slam poetry talking about how good life is and how the simple pleasures should be enjoyed. I’m in love with this tik tok.
old alt rock fans in the notes are like:
1) this slaps and actually sounds like a lot of the classics
2) if i went to a concert and they played this i wouldnt even question it. id be like FUCK yeah they were watermelon!!!
one time i was having sex and i was going “i’m yours i’m yours i’m yours” and then my partner stopped all of a sudden and said “can we talk about new kinks before we introduce them during sex” and i was like yeah what but it turned out she thought i was saying im a horse im a horse im a horse
Random idea: Cybertronian who scans a vehicle to be their altmode, but has 0 clue what certain functions from said vehicle do
Examples:
Cybertronian with a B737 altmode who doesn’t know what aural warning alerts mean, and gets jumpscared by alerts like “TOO LOW GEAR” “SINK RATE SINK RATE”
Cybertronian with aircraft altmode in a snowy region who doesn’t realize earth aircrafts need to be deiced or sometimes anti-iced before flying, and just flat out face plants into the snow right after take off
(Ok yeah I’m just thinking about airplanes again shush) But also another thought: Do flying Cybertronians have to learn how to fly when they first come online???? Seekers ig wouldn’t stall easily bc fighter jets are designed to not stall- But do others have to practice stall recovery procedures??
I’m partially thinking about how convenient it is that Twitch from Earthspark scanned a drone, since drones to my knowledge are extremely hard to stall?
Hello! I want to ask about the life span of tiger beetles, or more specifically, how long they usually live as adults. (I'm asking about Cicindelidae in general, but if you have specific information about Abroscelis anchoralis, Chaetodera laetescripta, or Cicindela aurulenta, it would be very helpful!! Basically I have some bug OCs (since quite a long time ago--over 5 years now), and for them I sometimes need information that might be hard to find. Thank you!!
This information is indeed hard to find. It depends on species, and I wasn’t able to find exact info on the species you mentioned. From what I’ve read about other species, adult lifespan can range from just a matter of weeks to more than a year. They spend most of their life in their larval form, though.
Public transit coming on a regular basis is a thing that we need to do better here in the US, and honestly, it will be beneficial for growing our economy.
for your kindness in respecting my gender identity I give you permission to retcon me back into being a male as to not break the immersion of thebayareaboylover’s followers.
it’s actually so funny how challenging it is to write bona fide graphic, horny smut. like people don’t give smut writers enough credit. you are constantly running out of words to describe the same 2-4 body parts and same 4-6 motions. you are constantly attempting to do interesting and dynamic things in the prose with this extremely limited set of words. you are looking at your prose for the nastier bits and wondering if it actually sounds hot or if it just sounds goofy. you are then toning down your prose and then wondering if it now sounds tasteful or if it’s just boring. you do ctrl+F for the word “cock” and there are 37 instances of it in the doc but you hate the 1-2 acceptable synonyms so there’s nothing much you can do about it
Fun Fact: Amtrak legally has priority over freight trains, the issue is there is no governing body to enforce this and because freight trains have gotten so long, they can’t fit on the sidings made for Amtrak trains to pass them, leading to many delays on train travel
this is not a fun fact
Fun Fact: Amtrak can not legally charge freight companies a tax for delays as it is technically a private company despite being government owned
And, if you want to do something useful about these sorts of issues, there is a good advocacy group that works to better train service and for things like enforcing the rules on the freight companies:
