i hate what diet culture has done to ethnic food my ancestors (my GRANDPARENTS) ate rice and injera and bread and coffee all the time and they turned out fine. i hate white people
“Humans can’t really digest beans and rice”. I am beans and rice. Beans is my father and rice is my mother
This kind of thing exposes the classism and xenophobia that underlies so much of diet culture.
Two thirds of humanity subsist on a mostly rice diet
“humans can’t digest - ”
Lemme stop you right there. Do you have any idea how much wild nonsense humans can eat that straight up murders other mammals? Even our closest relatives?
Hmm I think I’ll have a chocolate eclair with my coffee, sounds tasty. Both of those things are poisonous to pretty much all other mammals, as in same day organ failure kind of poisonous. Like spice? Capisin is formulated specifically so plants that make it won’t get eaten by mammals. Enjoy some refreshing mint flavor? Same idea. Booze? Fermented anything for that matter? It’s kinda weird that our livers can even do that, but considering all the other wierd shit we put in our bodies it’s not surprising.
Try giving a chimp or a bonobo that same menu and it might have time to have a heart attack before its kidneys shut down and its liver explodes. Dogs get a little bit of a hand up since they’ve spent the last few millenia living with us and eating whatever we feed them but there’s still a huge list of human foods that they can’t digest or even safely eat.
Milk? Yeah, that one’s a bit wierd but it kinda proves the rule. Given the challenge humans will digest anything eventually. Mushrooms? Cook ‘em. Rocks? Depends on the rock but you would be amazed. Bones? Cook those too.
There is a reason there is a human culture in nearly every biome on earth. If there’s water to drink we will find something to eat. Then we make it tasty.

god is a goat, and if you take it to the right place, it will make you a baby god.
the most powerful trainer in the world (a 14-year-old with a pet rat) went up a frozen mountain for no apparent reason. he only comes down after you beat up his rat. this is absurdly difficult.
the effective ruler of the unova region is a magical catgirl space princess with a bunch of pet dragons.

there’s multiple professors who study subjects they have no fucking clue about. they’re still considered experts for some reason.

a woc orphan gets a suit that basically makes her a super hero. This is never followed up ojn
a random guy with a bad accent in a brown trenchcoat is the sole police officer seen in the series. no i mean literally, there ARE NO OTHER POLICE its just him, he keeps showing up. All the others you might think were police are just security guards.

Pokemon Heritage Post
A princess who’s never battled in her life moves to another country after she unlocks latent psychic powers and becomes one of that country’s top battlers.
To follow up on the orphan superhero: she’s also like 10 years old and a professional PI in Paris.
A pair of self-proclaimed “celebrities” that no one’s heard of try to rewrite history by driving a dog insane.
You have the power to alter the past by choosing where to plant carrots.
Three specific birds change their appearance and types when in the UK. This is never elaborated on.
Between a respected sports champion, a renowned professor, and a terrorist cult leader, the cult leader is the only one whose ancestor never betrays you.
A region’s top champion who’s known for “never holding back” loses to two teenagers on separate occasions, and is still considered the top champion for some reason.
a teenager can understand animal speech because he grew up surrounded by ones that had been traumatized by shitty trainers
the same teenager hates battling and becomes the champion battler of his region entirely to make a point, and fucks off on the back of a dragon god when he loses
people have been confirmed to have been dropped into alternate timelines or into the past of possibly their own worlds. they get amnesia from the process and no one has made a significant effort to try to get them home again
there are multiple pokemon that murder people based entirely on their vibes- the more emotions someone is feeling, the more likely it is that something will teleport to them to vaporize them
a man jumps off the blades of a moving windmill and lands in an arena at least three stories below where he started in a superhero pose. this is not viewed as remarkable
in the aforementioned trip into space to fight a meteor alien, the player does it in a suit designed to withstand the deep pressure of the ocean or the extreme heat from a volcano. nasa has decided that is acceptable protection from the cold vacuum of space
its possible to grandfather paradox your way into triggering the plot of a mainline video game thanks to a turtle made out of gemstones and a book about conspiracy theories
that grandfather paradox confirms that once enough time has passed, you are guaranteed to get animals that look exactly the same as before, except now they’re dinosaurs or robots
you get a kaiju, and befriend it by way of sandwiches. no one knows what it is or is worried about what it might do, and the person that caught it via time travel entrusts it to you, a total stranger, because you beat up their son’s pet squirrel
three gods of willpower, emotion, and knowledge test a fifteen-year-old to make sure they have what it takes to save the world. the willpower one gives them a test they’ll never win to make sure they won’t give up, the emotion one grills them on the trauma of the last few weeks/months of their life, and the knowledge one asks them how many eyes a couple different species of pokemon have. these are all treated with equal seriousness

JEsus Christ how did that even happen I’m trying to fix the other stuff
I am so sorry I genuinely do not know how that even happened

Looks like someone hacked nyanchio’s blog and sent scam asks posing as tumblr’s support team. Just a little note for everyone, just in case: Tumblr support is more likely to email you directly than use anonymous asks to reach you. Don’t trust unfamiliar links anons send you, especially if they try to hide the link itself, as shown here.
[yeah I can confirm I got that one that coloredmesa shared. reblogging here for awareness, don’t click if you get one of these!]
Plaintext from the video: Please do not type out your DNIs like this. This kind of censorship is inaccessible to those with screen readers. Thank you.
Also don’t censor content warnings as it voids the whole point of a content warning. Saying kill and suicide won’t damage your post’s visibility, but saying k1ll and su*cide will stop people from being able to filter out content they don’t want to see.
this is SO important whats the point of having cw tags if people cant even filter it out

so many people do not understand that 1) animals are not people, and 2) they aren’t teaching their animals what they THINK they are teaching them.
dog group on the book of faces, someone is asking for advice on how to get their dog to come to them after the dog is done relieving itself outside. The dog doesn’t like coming to them an they spend ten or twenty minutes or more catching the dog each time to bring it in. Which reminded me of one of many attempts to talk a person through trying to fix exactly this same behavior in *many* other dogs over the years…
Me: So, a quick question for you… does the dog not coming to you and you having to chase them down frustrate you?
Them: Of course!
Me: So what do you do when you finally either catch the dog or get them to come to you?
Them: I give the dog a correction!
Me: So. You get hands on your dog and then you immediately punish them for allowing you to get hands on them. And you wonder why your dog has developed the habit of not coming to you?
Them: No, that’s not… I’m punishing them for not coming when I call!
Me: Which was…. fifteen minutes ago, or so, you said?
Them: Yes, when I first called them!
Me: Dogs brains literally cannot link an abstract thought like that. A thought and a consequence MUST happen within 2.4 seconds of one another, or the consequence becomes linked to the most recent behavior, thought, or activity. So, tell me… how is your dog supposed to understand that you punishing them is for the event fifteen minutes ago when you have made such a concerted, if unintentional, effort to teach them that them getting close enough for you to lay hands on them in the yard means an immediate punishment?
Them: But that’s not what I *meant*!
Me: Doesn’t matter what YOU meant… what THEY learned is that they come to you, and they get punished. Stop punishing your dog for the behavior that you want to see more of.
Stop anthropomorphizing your animals, folks. They don’t think like us. Stop setting them - and yourself - up for failure.
with humans, thanks to the capacity for abstract thought, punishing them basically always produces undesired results.

I must sleep. Sleep is the mind-healer. Sleep is the big-life that brings total ability to fucking do anything. I will face my bed. I will permit the blankie to pass over me and snores to pass through me. And when sleep has gone past I will turn the outer eye to greet the new morning. When the sleep has gone there will be everything. Energy and will to live will remain.
everything should cost one dollar, ten dollars, or one hundred dollars. a drinky drink is one dollar. a t shirt is ten dollars. rent is one hundred. i might be convinced to allow one thousand dollars for some very big purchases like a house. i get it, you’re running a business. i’m not unreasonable.
Rickrolling is the practice of tricking ppl into watching rick astleys 1987 song never gonna give you up
It also counts if you somehow mislead ppl into seeing an kmage of rick astley, or reading the lyrics feom the song, like “never gonna give you up”, or somehow referencint the song where it is not expected.
Note: i have most experience rickrolling on the website tumblr, so i will be biased towards this site. The base principals are rhe same; but technical details may differ on other platforms.
The bait:
This will make ppl want to click on the link.
MAke it simething funny or interestin.
And keep it short.
Usually i will state a fun fact, then provide a link to a “related video”.
Hey, if you have half a minute and care about the LGTBQIA+ community in the EU, I’d suggest you take a look at this initiative to ban conversion therapies in the EU.
1 million people are required to sign, but there’s barely 100k. The form takes less than a minute, it only requires your ID, name and surname.
Please, help spread the initiative so that it can reach the goal ASAP!
This is incredible. Hysterical. Historical. Hilarious. And impressive, too.
Even Mark Zuckerberg didn’t run Facebook into the ground so badly that it got removed in Brazil by court order. Let alone within five years of owning it.
And I heard that Brazillians made up a lot of Twitter revenue, so this could very well be what KILLS Twitter completely. This is Elon admitting that he would rather let the entire platform die than stop platforming the worst kinds of people you know.
