if you’re shipping two thirty-year-old dudes in a fifty-year-old show that’s not [old man] yaoi that’s old [man yaoi]. don’t forget order of operations.
I was like “I love you” to my partner and they said “I love you” and I was like “Prommy?” And they were like “I pr–” and then they physically recoiled from me and looked at me like
My partner and I were in bed when I saw this, he was about to fall asleep when I showed it to him. He laughed and said he liked the post. I started to laugh and said “Uh oh I’ve given you a dangerous weapon, you can’t use this word.” And he said he wouldn’t, and I immediately shot back with “Prommy?” I got him. I got him so good. Light laugh about that, then said he was trying to go to bed, so we said goodnight, I said I love you. He said I love you too. We then locked eyes, my lip quivered, and I started laughing into hysterics. Full blown tears, about to throw up kind of laughs. The mere thought of getting him with two attack “Prommys” sent my body into a crazed state. Probably laughed straight for 5 minutes. After I finally calmed myself down he said, “The least you can do is reblog their post” that added another two minutes of laughing like a crazy person. So thank you, have a weird lovely memory now due to this post.

People only like the idea of trickster spirits. “Oh, I could deal with them, easy.” But once they meet one in person it’s suddenly “wow, this guy sure is annoying.”
eating pastries is so humiliating cause you’ll be having the time of your life having it and then when you’re finished you look down and you’re covered in flakes and sugardust like fuuuck now everyone is going to know i’m a messy pastry whore
From here. If you think arachnids with long legs are just scary please watch this solifugid dig her nest (or try to) like SUCH a goofy little person creature. Look how she shoves dirt with her mouth and then gives it a little pat. Is she even making any progress?!
Fun fact: Camel Spiders aka Sun Spiders aka Solifuges are not true spiders because they lack the ability to produce webs, and their legs are arranged more like scorpions than spiders.
They’ve also been commonly attributed as having incredibly deadly venom, but actually the opposite is true. Their venom is pretty much harmless to humans and they rarely bite anyway. If you do get bit by one, the wound will likely cause you more problems than the venom.
And as a final fun fact, the Frostbite Spiders in Skyrim are heavily inspired by Solifuges.
More than that; they have no venom at all! Just very strong jaws for chomping up tough beetles, scorpions, centipedes, even lizards. They’re the tyrannosaurs of arachnids, putting all the points they can into a huge heavy head and bite force!!
If you are tasty foodful centipede it has to be the frighteningst beast, but….they have this face about it:
Okay this keeps exploding and the most common question is why she appears to have ten legs. The front pair are the palps, which spiders also have, but in spiders the palps are usually shorter than any of the legs! In scorpions, which are also arachnids, the palps are the pincers.
I have a site article that explains every type of arachnid, and they do all kinds of silly things with different palps!
just existing as an open bisexual is so funny like what is it about me that makes straight people want to come out to me. even if we’re talking about something that has nothing to do with sexuality, without fail, an hour or so into our conversation, the women are all like “is it gay to like boobs? doesn’t everyone like boobs?” and the men are like “i would let kim kitsuragi from disco elysium do heinous and disgusting things to me” n im like ok go off. can you drive me home after this i dont have a license

One time I did “Summon Water” inside a guys lungs and the GM allowed it because he had been playing for years and never seen anyone do that
Me “I can raise the temperature of a space by 5 degrees (Fahrenheit) per success” DM “Okay.” Me “And that’s 6 successes, so 30 degrees…” DM “Okay…” Me “And ‘inside the human body’ is a space, right?” DM “…I don’t like where this is going.” Me “So I’m going to raise the temperature inside his body 30 degrees.” DM “Yeah, so he’s dead now. He was fine, and then went through all the stages of heat stroke in half a second before his body went ‘No thank you’ and just shut off to stop it from being so hot. Good job.”
Hey everyone, given the recent news and all, I imagine some people might be considering leaving the country if the hostility aimed towards and the loss of rights of women and the LGBT+ community keeps on increasing during this second Trump presidency. Immigration is an extremely bureaucratic process in most countries, though, so if I could suggest a potential alternative, easier way out of the US if it ever comes to a point where such a thing would be needed, Brazil, my home country, is particularly friendly and considered a “model country” when it comes to our laws regarding requests of asylum. For example, people who apply for a refugee status in Brazil:
• Have a very good chance of being granted it. Just last year, over 77 000 people were granted asylum in Brazil [1]
• Are almost never under the risk of being deported, even if they came to Brazil under unregulated means and/or under fake documents [2]
• Have the benefit of a very straightforward, 100% free of charge process to apply for asylum that doesn’t require a lawyer and can be done almost fully online through filling a form on a website, with the exception of getting a physical copy of your application process at the nearest federal police station [3] and
• While getting an official refugee status can take a long time (sometimes up to two years in certain cases), just by being officially registered as being in the process of obtaining said status, asylum-seekers have the right to obtain “temporary” valid Brazilian IDs, a legal work permit and also are granted rights identical to those of Brazilian citizens, such as the right to free education, free healthcare, and social assistance. Apart from having to renew those documents once a year, these privileges are never revoked [4]
Most importantly though, the Brazilian Refugee law of 1997 defines a person eligible to obtain refugee status as being, between other criteria, someone who
“has well-founded fears of persecution for reasons of race, religion, nationality, social group or political opinions, finds themselves outside their country of nationality and is unable or unwilling to seek the protection of that country” [5] which includes members of the LGBT+ community, as it’s explicitly stated in the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees website that
“Lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender and intersex people may be eligible for refugee status [in Brazil] on the grounds of persecution due to membership in a particular social group. UNHCR recommends that people who are subject to harm, inhuman treatment or serious discrimination because of their sexual orientation, gender identity, gender expression or intersex status and whose governments are unable or unwilling to protect them should be granted refugee status.” [6]
To sum it up… if things escalate to the point where you feel like you’d be safer leaving the US than staying in it, Brazil is one country that would welcome you practically immediately. Tumblr tends to bury posts with links so I’ll add sources on a reblog, along with more information.
49. What’s your favorite number system? Integers? Reals? Rationals? Hyper-reals? Surreals? Complex? Natural numbers?
Complex numbers easily. Complex analysis has some wonderful results!
62. Are there any non-interesting numbers?
I mean, if we declared a number to be non-interesting because it didn’t have any/many common nice/interesting properties surely it would then be interesting because why doesn’t it exhibit interesting properties? Surely the absence of anything interesting would in and of itself be something interesting?
Thanks for the ask!

This is a good example of how sometimes maths definitions can be a bit weird. By that I mean, the everyday antonym of a word is always the opposite mathematical property. Like how in general open does not imply not closed!
Kids don’t have names. They have nicknames. Nicknames are initially given by their guardians, but they can certainly change and there’s nothing wrong with having more than one.
This name is acknowledged as a temporary name by everyone.
At 18, you go to an office somewhere and tell them your permanent name, and that becomes your legal name. It could be as simple as turning a nickname (like Benji/Benny) into a formal name (you’re now Benjamin AParentLastName or Ben LastnameFromGuyYouLike)
So your friend Speedy might decide at 18 that she’s gonna be Sarah Bolt or Celery Lightning, if she doesn’t want either parent’s lastnames.
Anyway this bypasses one of the main legal hurdles to name changes: people using them to escape debt and such. By making them a name change at the transition from childhood to adulthood, you have a fresh start.
The only issue I see right now (aside from “parents get angry”) is how you do provisional driver’s licenses. You don’t have to be 18 to drive in the US, you can get a temporary learner’s permit to let you learn how to drive before you turn 18. You don’t yet have a legal name to put on your license, though.
(oh and name changes are still allowed, of course)
The funniest thing about biphobia is that when it’s directed towards men it’s just homophobia and when it’s directed towards women it’s just misogyny. But the woke kind so it’s actually okay
Oh you’re definitely one of the “woke kind” of misogynists.

Again it’s an honour to be drawing one of my favourite short stories ever. Thank you so much for the original authors for creating this story; and for everyone who bought a copy and donated to the above non-profits.
“Funny you should say that, Mr. Frog, but those coffee grounds we found at the murder… Well, they were Wilkins Coffee. Now see, the thing that bothers me, is that the victim… Well, he didn’t drink Wilkins.”
