you can make the comment if you wish. this is not necessarily a nsfw blog but i am horny 90% of the time recently and so by proxy my blog is horny 90% of the time (i think that’s how it works)
last year i was eating in a fancy, large restaurant when i began to hear a rumble and the distant sound of people chanting ‘potassium, potassium’ and suddenly hundreds of people dressed as bananas flood this restaurant chanting potassium over and over and we were trapped there for a very long time because the bananas would not leave and they were everywhere
i wasn’t joking
this post has haunted me for like 3 years. every time i start to think i imagined it, it shows up on my dash again and then immediately disappears into the ether for another 17 months

when gerard way sings “the broken, the beaten, and the damned” and when kermit the frog sings “the lovers, the dreamers, and me” they’re talking about the same people btw
I like that this implies Kermit the frog and “the damned” are one in the same. Hell is empty except for The Frog, alone in the fire

this post’s hypothetical by itself is already ridiculous but the thing that gets me is how the wording implies two very funny things that become funnier in tandem
1. “Accidentally, the pitcher tosses a Christian baby” means this is a mistake on the pitcher’s part. i imagine the pitcher is breastfeeding on the field and they pitch and they look down at their hands and they see the ball still in the glove and they go “fuck”

my favourite olympics subplot is this norwegian swimmer’s public love affair with chocolate muffins and his increasingly manic tiktoks about them… romance of the summer

Hey tumblrinos and tumblrinas and tumblrinx’s and anyone in between or far and wide. I’d like to request some help. A town near me is about to destroy a nearly 350 year old tree for more parking space. How can I stop it? Please reblog/share this. We need help.
Per a friend: The white oak tree is located on land called “Queen Street” which was positioned to run parallel to the south branch of Onancock Creek, with King Street along the north branch of the creek. So the tree may have been growing in that location when Onancock was first settled by English. Before that it was an Indian village with just a few inhabitants. The girth of the tree is 17 feet, which means it could be as old as about 350 years. This type of oak can actually reach 500 years under ideal conditions.
Just so you all know, my tumblr glitched egregiously so now every time someone reblogs this from me, tumblr takes me off of my dashboard or search results and forces me to see this post again
pros and cons to swapping gender class and gaining the trans woman gender:
pros:
Access to some groups and characters with the “LGBTQ+” trait (most useful in charisma and community checks or situations where you need a larger party)
certain side quests unlock (some will be required to continue with certain game elements)
bonus charisma on checks with certain characters
seduction checks become much easier for straight transphobic men with low perception, gay or bisexual women, and straight men
New relationship/friendship arcs unlock, some close
+5 in combat against transphobic enemies
can choose to add “boobs!” Perk
can choose to trade “penis!” Perk for “vagina!” Perk
complete a side quest with the “transition” marking for a temporary boost in all stats (labelled “euphoria” in the bonus menu)
cons:
lose access to certain religious groups and characters
charisma disadvantage when speaking to characters with “transphobic” or “homophobic” trait
seduction checks become much more challenging for gay men and straight women
certain items cost more (mostly armor and accessories, certain cursed and blessed items or cosmetics)
must undergo more side quests than most other gender classes before losing passive disadvantages with certain elements of the game (mostly charisma checks with characters that don’t have the “supportive” trait)
I got to see mom do this once. It was… terrifying. I was moving into my first apartment, and my buddy had just moved into a place about half a mile away, and he was almost crying with rage because of some of the safety issues the apartment had with the wiring. There were a whole host of other problems, but that one was about safety and it should not have been a thing. Mom gathered us up, and drove to the leasing office. When we got there, she informed him (not asked. She’d walked his apartment, noted everything she disliked (she had much higher standards than he did) and she was PISSED) that he was to keep his mouth shut, make whatever expressions she cued him on, and pretend he understood whenever she and I switched languages and we’d fill him in afterwards. (I have been used as a complainant prop before. I know what my job is when she’s on this warpath; thankfully she does not use her powers for evil.)
It took her all of twenty minutes to have a promise in writing from the son of the owner for everything to be fixed by a specific date and also to install a ceiling fan at no cost to my friend. In that meeting, she managed to leverage his church, his family, his reputation, the concept of a gentleman, the biblical concept of how to treat the poor, how people would treat his children, once they were grown, and the concept of a self-made man (which my friend is trying very hard to be), Christian morality, what it means to be a community institution, real estate law, and honestly, I forget what else. She’d never met him before. She does not live in our city -or state, for that matter. We’re not Christian. She did a cold-read of him based on his office, face, clothing, and posture (he didn’t give us his last name -the ‘related to the owner’ was a guess that turned out to be lucky), and hit every point of pride or insecurity she could find. When some things still hadn’t been taken care of a week later, she *called his father* and implied that he’d failed as a man and a parent since his son hadn’t yet honored his word. My friend had the fan that day, and the remaining safety issues were taken care of on top of it. No yelling, no threats, it was just a calm, ‘friendly’ conversation. My friend does not do subtext; he knew the social chess game was going on, but not how it worked.
tl;dr: I’ve seen my mother do this and holy shit this really should be a thing.
my momma is a retired union lawyer. you should see her tear into landlords and rich people. it’s like watching a lion devour a zebra.
Comrade Karen
I see now…“Karen” is a power that can be used for evil or good…
Listen you are all gonna lose your shit once you find out where there’s a company where that is literally their whole business model. They are called “Karens for Hire” and their whole thing is helping out exploited people get justice - essentially complaining to the right people and making themselves heard.
meeting up with someone with the explicit goal of figuring out whether or not you want a relationship with them spoils the dynamic. it sucks. it’s terrible. fall in love with your friends like normal people.
as expected this one is a hit with the autism website
you guys Need to start seeing bugs as animals im not even joking anymore. the second u start seeing them as tiny animals the more your world opens up and the more you accept different types of life Into that world. youll begin accepting that even life you cant understand is still worth living. and itll legitimately make you a better person. fuck
kamala harris’ official pride merch being just pictures of her in different colored suits is arguably the funniest thing a politician of any level has ever done, much less a presidential candidate. the trans one isn’t even the full flag. was there not enough in the budget to duplicate the pink and blue kamalas to the other side
some other questions i have for her merch team include why they didn’t just use photoshop to get the missing colors. they could’ve just made that fuschia suit lighter for the trans flag and darken the purple for the bi one. there’s not even an orange suit it’s just her shirt. surely they could’ve photoshopped something into orange. there’s just enough effort missing from this to make it absolute comedy gold
Reading this makes it seem like she achieved her goal of being struck by the HRT lightning bolt in 1995
in Beijing.
The Chinese have HRT lightning now it’s so xiover for Joe Biden’s America
Reminder China has better trans rights than the USA.
IIRC shortly after this in early 2023 China made a policy to make it harder to get HRT, and there’s not comprehensive protections against discrimination based on sexuality or transness. certainly many lgbt activists in China still report a lot of discrimination and opposition from the government which is increasingly taking a conservative “traditional family values” approach to social issues.
none of this is to say like oh rah rah usa. Just that, in both the USA and China, the struggle for lgbt rights is far from over. portraying China as a monolithic yaass unproblematic trans-friendly utopia minimizes the discrimination chinese trans ppl face and the massive effort of lgbt activists in china. the fight for human rights isn’t over in the usa or china
I would detect trees but like genuinely what the fuck is wrong with you?
also where are the trees?
WDYM? :(
what is THAT??? WHAT DID YOU DO TO THE WATERMELON???
YOU HAVE DESTROYED IT’S DIGNITY AND TURNED IT INTO THAT INSULT TO MOTHER NATURE’S GORGEOUS GIFT OF LIFE, YOU MIGHT AS WELL HAVE DUG UP THE EARTH’S SOUL AND USED IT AS A JESTER’S TOY LIKE THE UNGRATEFUL HEATHEN YOU ARE, WHY WOULD YOU DO THIS???
WHA
I JUST DRANK WATERmelon
USE TAP WATER LIKE A NORMAL PERSON????????
I DON’T LIKE WATER UNLESS IT IS MELON
THEN DON’T DO THAT, THAT IS HORRIFYING, NEVER DO THIS AGAIN, I AM SOBBING AND CRYING AND SCREAMING AND SHITTING AND THROWING UP AND VOMITING AND PUNCHING THE WALLS BECAUSE OF THAT IMAGE, NEVER DO THIS, PLEASE.
If Cthulhu can be summoned by humans who are so far beneath it, why can’t humans be summoned by ants? The answer is they should be.
Well if a bunch of ants formed a circle in my house I’d certainly notice, try to figure out where they’d all come from, and possibly wreak destruction there.
That’s why knowing and correctly pronouncing the true name is so important to the ritual. Imagine how impossible it would be to not go take a look if the circle of ants started chanting your name.
And they’re like, you can’t leave because we drew a line made of tiny crystals - now you have to do us a favor.
And you’re like, let’s just see where this goes “yup, you got me… what’s the favor?”
and usually the favor is like, “kill this one ant for us” or “give me a pile of sugar” and you’re like… okay? and you do, because why not, it isn’t hard for you and boy is this going to be a fucking story to tell, these fucking ants chanting your name and wanting a spoonful of sugar or whatever.
And SOMEtimes you get asked for things you can’t really do, one of them, she’s like, “I love this ant but she won’t pay any attention to me, make me important to her” and you’re like… um? how? So you just kill every ant in the colony except the two of them, ta-da! problem solved! and the first ant is like *horrified whisper* “what have I done”
This is the best explanation for higher powers I’ve ever really heard.
house and wilson decide the only thing stopping them from dating is that neither of them is a woman so they start secretly dosing each other with estrogen and slipping in she/hers in regards to each other until one of them notices and then it’s a race to see who can forcefem the other one the fastest and the winner gets to be the man
I feel like tumblr is giving me a very skewed idea of what House M.D is about.
Your children’s show unfortunately has the absolute wrong take on tackling fascism. Yeah the power of friendship angle is showing a dismal lack of understanding of Marxist theory or even intro-level Leninism. Yeah my only two interests are children’s media and online leftist discourse so this is gonna be a problem.
Hello living embodiment of my strawman I have some incredible news for you about how people do in fact talk about Avatar The Last Airbender
as ever i will note that anarchism is a big ideology filled with many anarchists, and i am only talking about a specific subsection here: but so many of my interlocutors on this seem to struggle with the concept of ‘democracy’
for all their grandstanding about how marxists don’t respect the workers it is apparently beyond them to imagine those workers electing their own leaders (the natural result of abstracting 'power’ into an unknowable self-sustaining spiritual evil)
Power isn’t some unknowable thing but it does breed evil. It creates a divide among the people and creates separate classes with separate interests. Any form of power of coercion is inevitably going to lead to a divide between those with power and those without.
you’ve put the cart before the horse, how in god;s name is there supposed to be a significant divide between the subjects and rulers if the rulers all necessarily derive from the subject class. like do they magically turn evil the moment they get voted in, be real
if a ruling party has regular internal investigations and audits of abuses, if the ruling class can be held accountable to their subjects, and means of nepotism and cronyism are mitigated, there isn’t gonna be a major rift between leaders and subjects
fuck’s sake, the ussr fucked up one time with krushchev and now every fucking communist party is treated as an authoritarian bureau-tyranny regardless of actual efforts to mitigate development of a bureaucrat class within party echelons
like you know xi jinping, guy failed to get into the CPC despite having family in it, multiple times, like idk, maybe it’s imperfect, but there’s clearly mechanisms to prevent dynastic bullshit
and while we’re on the CPC, a curious little thing emerges wherein many party members and familys thereof are actually generally happy at the loss of privileges brought on by xi’s anticorruption movements, which does point to some interesting false conciousness in an inverse with how the petit-bourgeoise act
anyways, tl;dr, you seem really fucking opposed to the idea workers themselves can act as both subject and ruler within a state and seem to think any attempt by the working class to organize a leadership and administration for themselves is necessarily doomed to failure
