Too many I know, give more than asked and run themselves ragged.
I know you want to be good and kind to others and show your skills. But please don’t. It just leads to more work because people think you can handle it, or uses you. If you can perform 100% of what is asked with 70% of your energy, do that and save the 30% for yourself.

taking a class on sex this semester which has resulted in many fun things like “sex activity” and “sex final” being added to my planner. being very mature and serious about this .
obsessed
I had a class called “What is Evil?” The professor called us his “evil students” and I got to say things like: “I have evil class later.” and “I have readings in evil to do.” and “Well my evil professor said…”

I fucking hate James Tissot’s paintings because in ALL OF THEM there is ALWAYS someone staring right at you, but it’s not always immediately visible. You just feel watched by this mf. Sometimes the little shit is right there at the centre, but others the bastard is just gazing from the distance, it is CREEPY, my guys
Keying/graffiti-ing someones car is old news now if someone cheats we go at their wardrobe with a seam ripper
yknow what? Fuck you *unstitches all your shirts and jeans*
My mother did this to my father once. They got into an argument, my very pregnant and hormonal mother stormed off…except they lived in a tiny apartment so the only place to go was to shut herself into the closet for a good long sulk. And while she was sitting in there, fuming, she looked up and saw her sewing kit on the shelf, and all my father’s uniforms hanging right there.
So she picked one shirt and one pair of trousers, carefully, methodically ripped every third stitch out of every seam, and then hung them back up together so that he would be likely to pick them at the same time. This took her a couple hours, so by the time she was done, the anger had worn down. She came out, she and my father had a talk that ended in apologies, after which they were tired and went to bed. My mother swears up and down that she meant to warn my father about the sabotaged clothes in the morning, but he wore a different uniform set and they were both still feeling a little raw, so she didn’t want to bring up the fight again. She decided to tell him that night instead.
And then she forgot.
Anyway, about four days later, my father apparently came home roughly an hour after he left for work, his clothes slowly, gently shredding off his body, the most bewildered expression on his face. “Paula,” he said, his voice mildly shell-shocked. “Paula, my clothes are broken.”
My mother promptly burst out laughing so hard that she went into labor. And that’s the story of my birth, heralded by petty vengeance and utter confusion.
i hope i never ever ever see this image while im high or it will also straight up kill me. it would make me so scared my skeleton would run away And id be a boneless scared heap on the ground
Well, here we are. If I remember correctly exactly one year after I made this sideblog. And now the two powerhouses who have swept the entire tournament are facing off against each other!!
The undefeated champs, the unstoppable forces of nature that are both in a style I’m not at all used to drawing, are you guys ready?
Y’all DO know that Krtek assisted for a whole@ss rabbit birth??! He made his own trousers too, and convinced the burgeois city-leadership to replant a forest??!
As someone who buys a shit tonne of vintage and retro items all the time I need to tell you about the “shart zone” and “prime nuclear cockroach material”
when buying used items i will do anything in my power to avoid the shart zone, which is in the range of 5-10 years old, this is a short enough amount of time for especially electronic items to have not found a way to fall apart horribly but have become out dated enough to have no support and likely will not retain any value. I do however LOVE the nuclear cockroach material zone which is anything 20+ years old. If it still works after 20 years it is going to work forever. A great example of this is my pc which exists in the shart zone and has to be revved up to turn on lawnmower style, but my N64 works fine.
The same goes for clothes, I wear the same 40+ year old knitted jumper EVERY DAY and it only has two small holes in it. It’s less that they don’t make them how they used to and more survivor bias. You don’t see all of the retro items that fell apart within a year because they got thrown away. You only see the nuclear cockroach material that will still be here at the heat death of the universe.
Evangelical Atheists, playing checkers: I don’t believe in God!
Rabbi Sherwin Wine, barely looking up from his 3D Chess: That statement is meaningless because “God” is a trivial term that lacks any coherent definition.
It honestly bothers me the way people talk about Laios and Falin’s autism.
Its like, they wanna act like the way they’re treated differently is some “pretty privilege” and because she’s a girl, but they’re actually just ignoring how girls are socialized to be more socially aware, and bottle all of their “weirdness” in.
Falin doesn’t have any privilege over Laios for being a cute girl or whatever. She was raised to have to acknowledge how everyone feels about her at all times, she was literally considering a joyless marriage so people wouldn’t see her as “weird”. post-canon Falin looks so much happier because she is now allowed to do whatever she wants, dress however she wants and go wherever she wants.
You can literally see what im talking about in the way the genderbend short shows how a female Laios would be forced to start a family and looks completely devoid of joy.
People ask me how I can only have like five or six drafts before I call it done with my short stories. These concerns often come from my friends who have dozens of drafts and never feel like they’re done with anything.
I tell all these people the same thing. Once you get to the point where your readers are nitpicking about small things and you are stressing over individual words in your editing process, you’re done. The second you find yourself agonizing over commas your piece probably isn’t going to get substantially better from there. You’re done. Pack it up. Start submitting it places. Congrats, you made a thing.
“But what if I could make it better?”
Clearly you’re not. You’re looking at a computer monitor through a microscope, my friend. You can’t play the fun free flash games for kids when you’re only looking at one pixel at a time.
The first funny bitch was Cain, who straight up lied to God after killing his brother.
God: where’s Abel?
Cain: fuck if I know??? I’m not in charge of him
It is TRAGIC that you can’t read this in the original Hebrew.
God: Where’s the Sheepkeeper?
Cain: Do I LOOK like a Brotherkeeper?
God: hey where’s Abel???
Cain:
He killed his yonger brother in cold blood because he was jealous of him. There is in no way anything funny about this. No hesitation just poped a rock over his turned head, droped his body over the edged and tried to lie to god about what he did. FUCK YALL CRAZIES!!!
oh are those the receipts, Cain is problematic now?

This post gets worse every reblog
yet im not Abel to scroll past
This post hit me like a rock to the head
This is the quality content that keeps me on Tumblr
Whenever people do the whole “evidence for transition is poor because it’s not a randomized controlled trial” I know they are basically just using that term mindlessly (or maliciously) and not actually thinking about what it means.
Like, how do you intend to ethically and practically do such a study? Are you going to give people placebo HRT? Placebo surgery?
How is that going to work when these interventions visibly alter the body in a way that is going to be obviously obvious to everyone?
This reads like an attempt to provide cover to sell transphobia to the scientifically uneducated, kind of like when people used to do the whole “evolution is just a theory” dance.
Yeah its that. I mean I think there are over a few million trans people, and THEY say it works and immpretty sure one of them HAS to have a PHD or a degree of any kind (hecc, @catboybiologist is, well, a biologist. And idk if @nyancrimew has anything regarding computer but i feel she would be an excellent “Informatics” teacher) (thats what we call computer studies in italy lol 😅)
Like idk man but im pretty sure thats enough proof of it. Well. Working
I can be pretty US brained sometimes, sorry, so this is the first time I’m hearing about the Cass review, and my first time hearing about Hillary Cass at all. I’ll probs have more to say at some point (which uh OH MY FUCKING GOD 388 PAGES IM A GRAD STUDENT OW MY TIME) but my immediate reaction is a couple of things:
Many, many literature reviews and reports that advise medical already exist to this degree, the most dominant of which are WPATH and UCSF standards of care.
Based on the news about this, it seems that she’s talking more about doctors being “afraid” to speak up bc bias, while failing to accept that her position is already the status quo. Also, general lol @ what she’s saying
The criteria she’s using to discredit studies represent a fundamental misinterpretation of observational vs experimental studies. Again, the “impossible standard” here is trying to treat this as an experimental as opposed to an observational situation. It’s like trying to create a control group of a planet not going through global warming in an ecology study
If I’m reading right (which tbf I’m just skimming [literally TAing a class rn lol] page 51 literally straight up says that they’re excluding any study with “unconcious bias” in their questioning, so uh….
the only studies that would meet their standards of a randomized control would be wildly unethical, and they basically outright state this on page 50? So yes, a literally impossible standard of evidence
Don’t have time to go through each paper rn but literally most of these look fine? And they’re disregarding a shitton more? The fuck is this lit review? I know lots of studies that are fantastic that directly go against the conclusions here.
Just to clarify my background, I don’t have specific expertise here, I have a BS in molecular bio, a MS in bioinformatics (bio+CS), and I’m working on a PhD in molecular bio. And this is my cursory look. So huge disclaimers but yeah ofc this is BS. Disregard it, this is a clear case of the public latching on to the one “expert” that is willing to say what they want in the face of the thousands of others saying something else.
