“Hard to send to a girl I know.” Then send it anyway. Send it and say “hey I know this post is targeted towards trans men - but I think the information in the post would be helpful for you to know.”
Y’all know that cis people can just . Follow advice that’s intended for trans people but is applicable in their situation , right?
What if I told you people are mad at me bc of this post
One day, the US military decided to take a poll to see how the different branches handle a specific situation, in this case a scorpion in a service member’s tent. One representative from each major branch is selected, and each answers privately.
The question was a simple one: “There is a scorpion in your tent. What do you do?”
Army: “I would crush it with my boot and throw it outside.”
Navy: “I would pick it up by the tail and throw it outside.”
Marines: “I’d bite its head off before cooking and eating it.”
Air Force: “I’d call down to the front desk and ask why there’s a tent in my hotel room.”
the trick to becoming unimaginably powerful is learning to let go
letting go of controlling others’ opinions of you, letting go of things you can’t change about or for the people you love, letting go of your vast fortune to me personally, letting go of emotions so that they can flow through you instead of possessing you,
and of course, letting go of this- The Cursed Amulet, would also help
legitimately so scary that i just made a doctors appointment for 2025. you mean the far distant sci fi future 2025? you mean the pacific rim 2025? you mean i have to go to the doctor while giant robots are fighting the fucking kaiju? fuck all the way offfffffff
ive gotten so much mileage out of this tweet. every time i see something on the internet that makes me mad i just think to myself “people in real life: hey man how’s it going” and i keep it pushing
There are images of decomposed bodies wearing what appear to be scrubs… with their hands tied. Meaning they were executed while bound. I will not be sharing them because I’m tired of showing our martyrs’ bodies to people.
i have some mutuals in law i think are the coolest people ever but im scared to follow bc what if they dontlike me. im gonna get a bad grade at vaguely associated with you
they should let me customize when my posts do and don’t appear in tumblrs searches . i’d like to keep my rambly posts out of tumblr’s search without forfeiting the ability to search my own blog or have my art show up in tags/searches
Radio hosts are killed at the end of every day and replaced by exact clones the next day, that’s why they are so fascinated and entertained by basic things
“the three dots on the side” call her by her REAL NAME.. Meatballs Menu
im gonna say it now so everyone in my notes stops arguing over this. meatballs menu is three dots side-by-side. kebab menu is three dots up and down. bento menu is an array of 9 dots in a square shape. hamburger menu is three lines horizontally. Yes there are others but none of them are nearly as prevalent so i dont care enough to list them. goot bye
Literally what they’re called btw this post isn’t a bit
saw a grown woman on tiktok snidely calling gen z the christopher columbus generation bc someone’s fifteen year old son ‘thought he’d discovered weezer’. newsflash every generation finds out about the music of the previous generation at some point it comes free with being fifteen. being annoying about music also comes free with being fifteen. a kid saying yeah i’ve just found this band nirvana have you ever heard of them should be a thing of joy
People talk about the surprise albums from people like Taylor Swift or Beyoncé that drop with zero warning but I have just been existing in this world where every album I’ve ever heard in my life has been a surprise album because I didn’t know that musicians had schedules that we could see
Everything is a surprise when you don’t pay attention
yes we laugh about laios’s answer here hahaha it’s not even a monster but. let’s not gloss over senshi
His favorite food is Hippogriff soup.
His deepest, darkest, most closely-held secret wasn’t just that he spent most of life never truly knowing if one of his companions fed him another one of their teammates in order to keep him alive.
It was also that he liked it. A lot.
His relief he felt wasn’t just the “oh thank god I’m not a cannibal” catharsis, it was also that he wouldn’t have to kill and eat another person just to eat this meal again.
How many times do you think he craved it over the years. How haunted was he by this. How hard was it for him to make friendships with other humans because of this. Is this why he was so comfortable living with orcs. He was so isolated that, even living on an island with a decent half-foot population, he didn’t even know what they were.
we talk a lot about ohhhh what if my calling is to be the greatest mammoth hunter ever and I’m wasting my talents in the modern era but we never think about what if Thog from 30,000 BCE was the only person ever born who could get a sub-7min Donkey Kong Country any%, and he never got the chance. what about thog
There’s still debate about split attraction on my dash why do you people even care
If someone identifies as a bisexual lesbian how does that affect your life? Like actually. Outside of your little online world what tangible difference is it making in your day to day? Some people have complicated relationships to sex and romance. I thought the whole point of the modern queer movement was for people to do as they please and be legally protected.
Yeah maybe you don’t get it. Maybe there’s some identities you’ll roll your eyes at. So? So? Why the hell do you care?
Not expalining WHY bookburning is bad and WHAT books were targeted has left us with Bookworm uwu girlies treating any art project or act involving destorying/modifying any random ass mass printed novel as if it was a crime against humanity
We literally had this at the eco squat I used to live at. People would donate stuff to us all the time and on one occasion it was trash novels. We were low on wood that winter and started burning them, and one of the older guys got up in arms about “burning books” and where that would lead us.
If you don’t learn the context and reasoning behind your politics, you risk that it will degenerate into some kind of half formed religion where you have a series of commandments and taboos that you don’t understand.
I love animals that are, like, the opposite of cryptids: we know for a fact they exist and have a clear idea of what they look like because we have photographs and individual specimens, but we haven’t the faintest idea where they’re coming from - they just keep showing up out of nowhere, and the locations of their actual population centres are a complete mystery.
I so want examples. anyone who knows of any should post them in notes
You know, like giant squid and such. We know the bastards exist, we have credible first-hand accounts stretching back thousands of years and dead specimens washed up on shore and such, but in centuries of searching we’ve managed exactly one well-documented encounter with a giant squid in its natural habitat. We have no idea what their native range is or what their life-cycle looks like, let alone how many of them are out there.
Are there any reverse-cryptids that /aren’t/ at the bottom of the ocean?
The red-crested tree rat, for one. There have been only three well-documented encounters since 1898, and they just plain disappeared from the zoological record for over a century. The only reason we know they’re not extinct is that one walked right up to a couple of wildlife research interns at a Columbian nature reserve back in 2011, apparently out of pure curiosity, and allowed itself to be photographed and observed for several minutes before disappearing again.
That’s genuinely pretty cool and all, but I absolutely need to talk about how the picture in that Wikipedia article looks like a tiny eldritch horror disguising itself as a peach.
To be fair, based on the actual photos from the 2011 encounter, they really do look like that:
for my fellow psychotics who struggle with thinking someone is in their house, a method I’ve found that really works are these guys:
i put them on my front door and anytime it opens they ring. that way if i think someone has broken in or i see someone who isn’t there i can think back to if the bells have rung, and if they haven’t i can assure myself it’s not real. obviously it’s not fool proof, like if you are prone to auditory hallucinations, but it has really helped me calm down in time to avoid major psychotic breaks. it’s a real lifesaver
