Everyone wants to talk about how Senshi is a tumblr sexyman but…Senshi is actually attractive. Like even aside from the fact that he’s pretty good-looking he’s a nice, sweet guy and he can cook and loves doing it. He’s a perfectly eligible candidate for marriage, which kind of goes against the spirit of a tumblr sexyman.
Chilchuck, however? Chilchuck is a tumblr sexyman. What the fuck do you people see in him
you’re required to participate in this poll btw. i need data
tumblr what is wrong with you first the walrus vs fairy thing and now this? are you saying it’s less fucked up to find out you’re not a biological organism than find out you’re a human created from one parent-twin who is genetically identical to you?
Clone: horror at the lie of your body (for what purpose? how many are there? are they like you?)
vs.
Robot: horror at the lie of your mind and your humanity itself (have you ever actually had a thought of your own, or is everything you are/you think/you understand just created by another person’s brain? whose mind/brain are you?? whose thoughts are in your head?? What does it mean to “think” when you’re only a manmade echo of humanity constructed from Boolean logic loops? Do you even have a soul?)
There’s a CLEAR ANSWER HERE.
clone: you are the theft of another being, inextricably tied by the blood running through your veins they may not have even given to you. you aren’t you, you’re them, you were made to be them, you’re not different, there shpuld not be a you, you are them,
robot: ok well im a robot so show me my blueprints so i can install a sword in my arm to beat up ppl that i dont like. what the fuck ever. can i run doom
The point of NATO is not to “help” anyone but its own warlords and oligarchs and their imperialist interests abroad. The reason NATO isn’t “helping” Ukraine more is because a) they don’t want WW3 (yet) and b) because its leaders are perfectly fine using it as a battleground to test out weapons and try to carve out a sphere of influence against a peer competitor but nothing more. Ukraine never had any chance of being an equal or even junior partner in NATO’s imperialist project. It’s a patsy that will be used, destroyed, and discarded like so many other countries before it and their craven, comprador ruling class that honestly believed they had a shot at imperialist membership if they just kept asking nicely and kept maintaining their hardline stance against Russia are to blame for it. Zelenskyy looks so pissed in that image because he’s realized how much of a fucking fool he’s been played for.
Former President Donald Trump delivered an alarming message to U.S. allies during a Saturday rally where he outlined a scenario in which he would “encourage” Russia to “do whatever the hell they want” to other NATO members.
Speaking to a crowd in Conway, South Carolina, Trump told a story that cast himself as a tough-talking negotiator.
“NATO was busted until I came along,” he began. “I said, ‘Everybody’s going to pay.’ They said, ‘Well, if we don’t pay are you still going to protect us?’ I said, ‘Absolutely not.’ They couldn’t believe the answer.”
He rehashed the story a few moments later.
“One of the presidents of a big country stood up and said, ‘Well sir, if we don’t pay and we’re attacked by Russia, will you protect us?’ I said, ‘You didn’t pay? You’re delinquent?’ He said, ‘Yes, let’s say that happened.’ No, I would not protect you. In fact, I would encourage them to do whatever the hell they want,” Trump said.
“You gotta pay. You gotta pay your bills,” he added.
The audience cheered loudly for the former president, who is notorious for failing to pay bills on the campaign trail and in his past business endeavors.
It is not clear whether the scenario Trump described actually happened. Trump frequently takes credit for supposedly pressuring other NATO members into contributing more funding during the course of his first term.
i still hate y’all bitches who say oc x canon shit is cringe like bitch you have ANY idea how flattered i would be if someone made an oc for my fantasy world? how utterly PSYCHED my ass would be they loved a character so much they fleshed out one themselves just 2 be with one of mine? fuck y’all haters
And whata fucking bout it? Who gives a fuck? Does it hurt you, does it break into your home and steal your meemaw’s ashes? Does it spit on your holy symbol? No? Then shut the fuck up
this shit owns it’s just a number go up idle game except the idle mechanic comes from you writing JavaScript to automate tasks it seems like the end goal of the game is to perfectly optimize against this little arbitrary system they’ve created. There’s not any plot to speak of so far but even though nothing is happening people send you messages through the computer telling you to trust no one as they all have ulterior motives. Very relatable.
hmmm… there’s probably an INFINITELY more humane way to do this…
i get that they’re not killing them and they end up fine, but imagine the trauma of you, a mammal, going through a long ass tube, not knowing what’s going to happen to you, and you can’t breathe. 🤷♀️
They get misted with water throughout the thing, and it results in fewer injuries than the ‘ladder’ method. Also, it’s a fish. It never knows what’s going to happen to it at any point in time throughout its life.
Also, I, a mammal, have paid 80 bucks to get into a water park to get the opportunity to feel like that fish, and that motherfucker gets in for free every day is fish day at the fish waterpark
well the MOST humane thing would be to not build dams blocking salmon migration routes, nor create a society where there are only resources allocated to solving the problem at all because blocking the salmon endangers the profits of a segment of the food industry.
Buuuut since we’re past that already, here are a couple of additional thoughts:
1 this IS the more humane alternative, which was invented to lower injury and death rates associated with previous techniques. When a better alternative is revealed it will probably replace this one. But this one is a pretty huge improvement over the other methods, one of which killed off something like 80% of the fish involved.
A study of the above fish tube was conducted by Pacific Northwest National Laboratories in 2017 on the Columbia River and showed a much higher success rate. In that study, only one fish died (“due to a human error during the system setup”) and only 3 percent had signs of injury. So. The next best improvement might have to be “remove dam”
2 they are on their way to die. That is where we are helping them get to. That’s the end goal of the salmon’s migration. They on their way to mutate, start rotting alive, have an orgy, and die. That’s where the tube is taking them.
So like, it’s not going to be the weirdest thing they experience this month, is what i’m saying.
New idea: instead of writing the fic, you come over to my house and I tell you the entire plot while I pace my tiny kitchen. There’s a cup of tea, warm in your hands. The words don’t stop and the affection never leaves your expression.
me when i cant comprehend that different continents have different animals
the rest of the paragraph that was cut out in that screenshot literally explains the reasons behind the easter bilby and bluntly theyre minimising the impact that wild rabbits have had as an introduced species in our ecosystem.
the easter bibly was an ingenious campaign that builds in social awareness and change to an ongoing annual tradition without detracting from what that tradition represents. the choice behind it was intentional
We still have easter bunny paraphernalia, mind you. Just walk into literally any Coles to find em. We didn’t replace the bunnies, the bilbies are just their cooler cousins.
Bilbies are just the better animal.
But yes, we do actually dislike rabbits in Australia. Elsewhere you may like rabbits, foxes and cats (not pets), here we want to kill them.
I was going to say Australia has some bad history with Rabbits.
the beatles are an infuriating band to me as a relentless contrarian. liking them is cliche, hating them is cliche, being indifferent towards them is cliche. it’s impossible to have an novel or interesting take on the beatles in current year. like how am i supposed to win here?
found these on twitter that might be helpful to all rpers who want to make sure their themes and carrds are accessible to all
consider this for themes as well

if you are doing any kind of design meant to reach large numbers of people, download a colorblindness filter (i use CVSimulator, its pretty simple and free) and use it religiously
I don’t trust anyone who hasn’t acknowledged their capacity for evil.
“I’m just a smol bean uwu” No sir, what you are is someone who is so habituated to thinking of yourself as innocent that you will continue to do so even when you’re guilty.
Because it’s happened to us on a trek, if you see abandoned clothes, stop and search for anyone nearby. Late-stage hypotherima causes a thing called paradoxical undressing where the person feels too hot and starts taking their clothes off.
for a little bit of an order for this if it isn’t obvious: Take any wet clothes off (including sweaty clothes!! underlayers can become soaked with sweat while working in the cold and lead to hypothermia later) BEFORE you wrap the person in warm dry blankets/clothing.
Also I cannot stress the ‘do not rub’ thing enough. If you have a frozen steak, let it thaw a little bit and then give it a good rub. Take a peek at it via a hand lens. You’ll see tons of little cuts/gashes. That’s from the ice crystals cutting into the flesh. NEVER rub the skin of a hypothermia/extreme cold exposed person to warm them up unless you want the same damn thing happening to their flesh.
Don’t warm the extremities (hands/feet) too quickly. Not only would it be extremely painful, but the vessels in said extremities opening too quickly can lead to shock (part of the direct heat issue).
This deserves another reblog
For writers, AND real life, as places get VERY cold with limited heating being allowed to the people…
Stay DRY, stay warm.
Also, if you find a hypothermia victim who appears to be dead, IMMEDIATELY CALL AN AMBULANCE ANYWAYS. Yeah, they might have gone into cardiac arrest, but the wonder of severe hypothermia is that it also slows the rate of brain death, on account of being fucking frozen. There’s been cases of hypothermia victims having their hearts stop, only for them to be revived HOURS later in a hospital and (eventually) make a full recovery.
Hypothermia victims aren’t pronounced dead until they’re warmed up again; you’d be amazed what people can come back from.
once again, I’m asking you all to please acknowledge the gray spectrums of aromanticism and asexuality. the concept of attraction is so subjective and complex that it can’t exist on a black and white area only, a- and allo- aren’t the only ways you can experience attraction. acknowledge the gray!
last week i saw a comment on reddit that really annoyed me so i replied “touch grass” and then of course instantly forgot about it. except the next day i saw a notification that a different user had replied to my comment saying:
“All these fun expressions that have come with the Internet! Thanks for teaching me a new one. 😊”
i looked at their profile and they’re a self described “cis grandmother”. 7 days later still very much riding high on the euphoria of having introduced somebody’s cis grandmother to “touch grass”.
Man senshi must be living his best life can you imagine if you were fucking around thinking about your favorite thing in the whole world, the thing you’ve dedicated your whole life to, and three dumbass schmucks stroll by like “damn I would LOVE to get into this very specific thing but I have no knowledge of it at all” and then you get to teach them all about it for days and they think you’re so cool for being into that one thing you’re into that your life revolves around. Then imagine the same situation but only one person of the three thought you were cool and that’s senshi. Pretty good still I think.
