I just want to formally acknowledge to the person driving in front of me with bumper stickers reading “I’d Rather Be Slowly Consumed By Moss,” “Slime Mold Is My Co-Pilot,” and “Honk If You’d Rather Be Watching The Cinematic Masterpiece ‘The Mummy’ Starring Brendan Fraser and Rachel Weisz” that I know you have an account here and I approve of you
OP where are you from, bc I’m 90% sure I’ve seen that car
Edit: I only took a pic of the mummy sticker

Beep boop! I look for accidental haiku posts. Sometimes I mess up.
A loanword is a word taken from another language, such as ‘angst’ or ‘tsunami’ or ‘calque’.
A calque is a literal translation of a word from another language, such as rhinestone (from French caillou du Rhine) or blueblood (from Spanish sangre azul) or loanword (from German lehnwort).
Smash that mf reblog button if you stoically ignore all labelled washing instructions and everything your mama ever told you about laundry and just send those bastards hurgling around in an overfilled tub to meet either death or glory
Something I learned from a costume designer: if an item can be washed multiple ways the designer is only legally obligated to put one of the ways on the tag, but if there’s only one way to wash that item they have to put Only on the instructions
If the tag says “Dry Clean” it’s safe to machine wash but the designer thinks it looks better if you get it dry cleaned
But if it says “Dry Clean Only” you will destroy it if you wash it any other way
Reblogging for that last bit which this 37 yr old adult did not lnowy
it literally HAS to be okay to choose to be fat in order for fat liberation to mean anything at all tbh
i literally wrote this as simple and straightforward as possible and still most of the notifications i get on this post are “yeah, some people have the Fat Curse, cursed by fat, and theres nothing they can do abt it. its not your fault uwu” which is wild, bc why did you write all that nonsense when you clearly refused to read?
i am slamming my head on the bars of my enclosure. i am screaming into the starless sky and shouting that some people do want to be fat actually, and are fat because they want to be, whether they are “natually” fat, or they eat intentionally to gain weight, or they simply enjoy eating and choose not to limit that joy. there is nothing wrong with choosing to be fat. and there is nothing wrong with being fat and happy. the fact that this is so inconceivable to so many ppl, even those who claim to be body positive/neutral/fat liberationist is literally just fatphobia and nothing else. how are you expecting to make the world a safer place for fat ppl when you can’t even twist your lips to admit that fatness is desirable?
there’s that post going around that’s a short twit thread talking about “the obesity epidemic” as a result of economic oppression and everyone’s snapping their little fingers for it but like. you guys know that we achieved socialist utopia tomorrow there would still be fat people right. you guys know that genetics play a bigger role in that than anything else and that some people will just be fat regardless of every other factor in their life right. you guys know that’s fine right.
like idk I don’t think it comes from a purposefully fatphobic place and like yes it sucks a lot that the demands of capitalism deny people a lot of opportunities to cook or learn to cook and be more engaged and intentional about their food. but it has this flavor of “poverty is bad because it makes people fat,” which only holds up as an argument if you agree that being fat is a terrible thing that happens to people rather than being a completely neutral reality about some people’s bodies.
anyone pulling any fatphobia on this post is getting blocked on sight I’m not playing.
One thing I despise about kids being uneducated about internet safety is the amount of times I’ve had to delete not just their identifying details from my page (don’t fucking tell me where you go to school), but also mine.
If you saw me at work or out and about, no you fucking didn’t.
Shut the fuck up, I’ve had death threats.
no yeah seriously. my friends and I almost got fully fucked doxxed a while back. shit can absolutely be dangerous on the Internet.
change names. don’t mention specific places. keep your personal information to YOURSELF.
if you don’t, you will almost certainly live to regret it.
An update to this: I had someone try (because luckily I’d already filtered keywords) to flood my comment section with my place of work down to the postcode with an invitation to “go say hi”.
listen listen. when you see a deactivated blog and the url says *url*-deactivatedyyyymmdd that person deactivated voluntarily. if it says just the url and the blog is deactivated that means they got terminated by staff.
This thread is full of the luckiest people on the planet, I think. Also goes to show just how calm even venomous snakes are - coral snakes rarely bite unless you’re actively harassing them - and how important it is to make sure your ID as non-venomous is 1000% certain before picking up any wild snake.
There are a fair few faux feminist statements I hate, but “We are the daughters of the witches you couldn’t burn” is one of them.
Historically inaccurate understanding of both who was persecuted by the witch trials and how those persecuted were typically dealt with? ✅️
Trivialising the torture and live immolation of real actual people by implying they somehow weren’t strong or clever enough to avoid being burned at the stake? ✅️
Invoking a legacy that categorically does not belong to them in an attempt to claim an oppression they and their ancestors never faced? ✅️
Joking aside, the Millennium Falcon is not the space fantasy equivalent of a busted-ass old panel van.
The Millennium Falcon is the space fantasy equivalent of a busted-ass old panel van that’s inexplicably been hot-rodded to have a top speed of 300 miles per hour, which is substantially funnier.
Aw hell yeah iterator oc drop!! they don’t exactly have a very deep lore so far since they’re just a fairly recent character so all you have to know about them is that they are indeed a cunning little shit and loves antagonizing other fellow iterators for the fun of it.
also their design is based off of a bearded vulture! i tried to atleast implement the bearded vulture’s color scheme to their design as much as possible Their local group are all birds of prey inspired iterators! but uh the rest aren’t very important unless im bored enough to actually design them - Nine burning skies or just nicknamed ‘Skies’ is located at the far up north, between the tall rocky mountains - their antennae’s pretty expressive! they can bend it at will - skies and their partner owns a pet cyan lizard named shrike (i would draw the guy but i can’t draw lizards) - they LOVE fashion,history,jewelry and golden trinkets and another way for them to preserve the old forgotten memories from the past - don’t separate them from silence. do not separate them. they have some girlboss,gaslight,gatekeep vibes and honestly??they kinda do LMAO i think they would be leaning more towards gatekeeping oh and didn’t i mention that they are gay and inlove? YES they are gay AND in love!! the iterator shown at the bottom right side is Languid Silence @strandedaylily ’s oc hi hello stares at you intensely i love xemm,,
oh also some extra additional art for them! the reason why i made this ref sheet is solely for artfight thanks artfight for making me make ref sheets of my ocs more often
The Lemkin Institute for Genocide has released a statement saying that Israel is committing genocide in Gaza and the United States is complicit. The statement was released in the aftermath of the horrific attack on a refugee camp in Rafah
