“average person eats 3 spiders a year” factoid actualy just statistical error. average person eats 0 spiders per year. Spiders Georg, who lives in cave & eats over 10,000 each day, is an outlier adn should not have been counted
my mom hung up some clothes of mine on the doorframe and it seriously could not convey more “this guy dresses like a cartoon bully” if it got up and stole a kids lunch money

Anyone else think some of those jc leyendecker drawings are kind of yaoi ….
They switched up from golf clapping to police brutality real quick when she started talking about their racism.
Hi!! Wrist locks are incredible painful and pose high risk of damaging the wrist even between consenting sparring partners who can tap out at any time!
In Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, it is illegal to wrist lock anyone below blue belt and anyone in the juvenile division!
Depending on how work goes this year it might be a while before the actual final piece sees the light of day - so I’m releasing the animatic for the Guards! Guards! animated trailer on the unsuspecting public.
I was hoping it could work as both a trailer/intro animation to a non-existant Guards! Guards! animated show, and I think it turned out pretty neat! I hope you enjoy.
As a nonbinary person it feels uncomfortable when strangers perceive my partner and I as a straight couple,
But it’s hilarious to me when they perceive us as father and son.
“Does he have his own luggage?” the agent behind the check-in desk asks brightly, making eye contact with my partner.
“Just carry-on,” I say as I slide my driver’s license across the counter toward her. Confusion dawns on her face. She glances up at me briefly before printing my boarding pass in silence.
“A soap making booth!” I exclaim. I’ve been to the renaissance faire a dozen times but I’ve never visited this shop. “Let’s make soap!”
“First you have to ask your Responsible Adult for five dollars,” says the vendor in a measured, singsong voice, and wags her index finger at me.
I look around, confused. Who is she talking about? Does she mean the young man trailing behind me? I turn back to her.
“I have five dollars …”
“Well you still have to ask him,” she smiles sweetly.
As I open my mouth to ask why, I suddenly realize she has misjudged my age by at least two decades.
“I’m older than he is,” is all I can think of to say.
“Would you like a children’s menu?”
“Sure, and if you’re taking drink orders, I could also go for a Corona.”
Hey op?
HOW???
I’m short
This is like that tiktok about the grown woman accidentally being kidnapped by a middle school bus driver lol
So glad I have tits so this can’t happen to me 🙏 because I KNOW if I was flat chested, this would be me, but THANK GOD, I get to at least look 16
Once my friend Henry was accused of wearing wireless headphones by a substitute so she said for him to hand them over so he took them off and handed them to her. Then later on she asked him a question and he didn’t respond so she said it louder and he still didn’t respond. She asked why he was not responding and he said “I can’t understand you ma'am, you took my hearing aids.”
HOLY SHIT
one time we had a sub that was handing back papers and called my name. I asked if someone could grab it for me and she started mocking me for not even standing up. taunting me asking why I was not walking up to the front to get the paper myself.
my classmates went dead silent and after the sub’s laughter ended someone informed her that the wheelchair parked nearby belonged to me
I had a sub in English once, on presentation day. And everyone goes up and does their thing, and then its my turn. The whole time im stuttering and mixing up my words, having to stop and re-say my sentences. The rest of the class is used to this and claps. However, by the time its over, the teacher is 100% done.
Starts saying horrible thing about how im going to have to get over my ‘fear of public speaking’ and how she’s heard 8 year olds give better presentations (plus worse things but I don’t really member them). By then im in tears and on the brink of a panic attack, and then she starts telling me off for crying
The rest of the class is horrified. Then this boy stands up. He never been my friend and we never really got along, but he’d never bullied me. He told her in a pissed off, cold voice that in freshmen year I got a concussion and that I never really recovered from it, so all that was medical related and I couldn’t help it. Then he starts telling her off and the rest of the class joins him.
The teacher is mortified and tries to cover her ass, but the whole class walked out and that boy took me by the shoulders and we all walked to the principles office and told him what had happened. Lets just say she isn’t teaching anymore.
Also, turns out that boy had a sister like me, who couldn’t really speak. We’ve been best friends for 8 years and i’ll be his best woman at his wedding next year.
The moral is that Teachers, even subs, and adults shouldn’t scold kids before knowing the whole story, because shit like that can fuck up kids self-esteem for the rest of their life.
When I was thirteen, I had to have spinal surgery. When my doctor said I was allowed to attend school again, he said I had to use a wheelchair when on school grounds. My first day back at school, my special-ed teacher had put up a banner in her classroom that read, “There is no elevator to success. You must take the stairs.” I asked what that meant regarding my wheelchair, and she gave me detention for “disrespecting her authority”. The next week she gave us a homework assignment to design a poster that could potentially be used as a Public Service Advertisement. On the due-date, I handed this in.
My special-ed teacher was fucking OUTRAGED. She wanted me expelled for ridiculing her authority in front of the other students. The principal proclaimed my work to be “a masterpiece of satirical genius” and vetoed the special-ed teacher’s attempt to expel me.
Reblogging this post yet again, this time for the masterpiece of satirical genius. Hope the teacher got in trouble.
talking to people while holding a beverage is awesome because you don’t have to know what to do with your hands and when you don’t know what to do with your face you can just take a sip

I just slammed the reblog button so hard my phone broke.
Implementing strict out-of-bounds checking in my 3D platformer, but instead of actually forbidding the player from going out of bounds I just use it to create a demon that chases you around the OOB space, and if it catches you it engages you in a lengthy unskippable dialogue about the tabletop RPG it’s writing, thereby killing your speedrun.
Reminder that there are at least 3 separate cat Zims in the Zimvoid
Like they have slightly different designs, the cat Zim in the elite is more orange and has hind legs, the one in the arena that is green with a purple uniform and no whiskers, and the one when they introduce the Zimvoid has whiskers and is (presumably) in his room
You’re bi and you love cocks? Well do I have some birds for you! Cockatiels, cockatoos, Guianan cock-of-the-rock, Andean cock-of-the-rock, and cockerels also known as roosters!
The flip side of the post-World War II cries of “Never again” was an unspoken “Never before.” The insistence on lifting the Holocaust out of history, the failure to recognize these patterns, and the refusal to see where the Nazis fit inside the arc of colonial genocides have all come at a high cost. The countries that defeated Hitler did not have to confront the uncomfortable fact that Hitler had taken pointers and inspiration on race-making and on human containment from them, leaving their innocence not only undisturbed but also significantly strengthened by what was indeed a righteous victory.
characters who dig themselves out of their graves (whether literal or metaphorical) are at the top of the list. nothing beats a character who should have died but didn’t and comes back to haunt their own life and the world around them, benevolent or violent it doesn’t matter, it’s enthralling either way
Some of the Amnesia trope spin off of TROD AU I drew in stream the other day, Narinder version (idk I’ll come up with an actual name for it or just keep calling it the ‘trod amnesia au’ lmao)
Still not quite used to Clip Studio Paint, the brushes feel stiffer to use and I think it shows but alas
i wish i could say this more eloquently but watching these college solidarity encampments popping up around the world… watching university faculty use themselves as shields to protect their students from the police… watching these students put their own safety on the line to demand divestments… i’ve never seen anything like it, and every update moves me to tears.
hyena positivity that focuses on spotted hyenas only is so fake. if you don’t love brown and striped hyenas then get out. if you don’t love aardwolves I can’t even look at you oh my god
randomly thinking about that huge mosaic floor that that family in Gaza unearthed in their backyard last year, no idea if they’re safe, no idea how their home or that incredible archeological discovery has fared, maybe the IDF excavated it and moved it to one of their shitty museums, no fucking clue
I tried to find the podcast where I first heard about archaeology in Israel, and in Jerusalem specifically. I thought it was NPR, but if it was I wasn’t able to find it again. The TLDR was that Israeli archaeologists look for anything that legitimizes Israel’s presence there, so they search specifically for Jewish evidence, and discard everything else. Jewish, Christian, and Muslim groups have lived in Jerusalem in peace for centuries, but evidence of that is being thrown away as irrelevant to the aim of these digs. One of the big technical criticisms of these archaeological digs is that it’s bad archaeology. When you’re trying to investigate the past, you dig deep and vertically, trying to avoid damaging the layers as much as you can. These archaeologists dig horizontally, destroying much of the evidence of other cultural groups’ existences in the process.
Anyway, I couldn’t find the podcast, but here’s a source that talks about the same thing a bit:
