i just think that smoking weed at concerts poll was rly annoying bc the question was “is it rude” but people were treating it like the only two options were “it’s morally unconscionable in every situation and you deserve to go to jail if you do it even once” and “it’s always ok everywhere and if you say it’s not in the best of taste you’re exactly the same as a fascist” and the whole thing made me feel like this
when people act like Large Beverages are the thing thats wrong with america as if thats not the only thing keeping me from driving off a cliff… ohhhh Those greedy americans slonking away at their Large Beverages. we’re literally all working in the hamburger mine to afford rock and roll disc . Beverage is all we have
Thursday, March 6th: Hello, everyone. I’m Gem, a bi, mentally ill, and disabled woman in desperate need of help as I’m struggling to pay my bills this month!!
I apologize for asking for help again. As most of you know from my previous posts, I have been struggling to make ends meet while on welfare. And due to my outstanding bills and ever-increasing debt, it has been difficult for me to get by. These past few months have been absolute hell, and with no other income, I’ve been relying on the kindness of others to get by.
I am in desperate need of that kindness again, because even though I managed to pay my rent and basic utilities for the month, I still need help to get groceries and pay my credit card bill which is, unfortunately, due before I receive my welfare again on March 31st.
Again, I know this is a lot to ask, but if anyone could spare any amount to help me, even if it’s just £1/$1/€1, it would save my life, and sharing helps just as much.
to all the warriors who will feel pressured to shave their legs now that it’s warm enough to wear shorts… HOLD THE LINE!!!
as this post gets closer to hitting 1k i can hear the “i just hate the feeling of hair” people approaching in the distance & when they get here im turning off reblogs
The feeling of getting into bed with fresh, clean sheets after a nice warm shower with freshly shaven legs is better than sex
when he says “ahwooo” it’s scary because you think the werewolves are nearby. but then he says “the werewolves of london” and you think oh.. i’m not in london. but then you remember they could travel
there is something so crazy and powerful about having art of your oc that was made by anyone other than yourself. like oh my god you actually exist outside of my own brain that’s WILD
happy st. patrick’s day, here’s a reminder that the english invaded and colonized our country, attempted genocide, when that didnt work punished us for speaking our own language and enjoying our culture to the point where precious few even speak Gaeilge as a primary language, brutally crushed those who attempted to rebel, ignited a civil war intentionally so they could keep the north, fanned the flames of the Troubles, allowed prisoners to starve to death on hunger strike to send a message, treated us like 2nd class citizens in both our own country and in the UK for years, CONTINUE to fuck over the north, and now attempt to profit off our national holiday by getting really drunk even though the alcohol issues that my country is famous for are due to the above reasons. have a good one
I made this post in 2017. I feel it’s important to re-add the fact that all this happening to the irish does not make reverse racism real. white people are not oppressed. who do you think did all this to the irish? white british people. and the irish ended up using racism to their advantage particularly in the US to claim whiteness for ourselves. ireland is a deeply racist country today. our colonisation and genocide does not excuse our and our diaspora’s treatment of people of colour.
instead of leaving stupid comments on this post, please donate to the choctaw nation, especially if you are a white american claiming any irish heritage. if you’re in ireland, petition for an end to direct provision, as well as finding out what you can about asylum seekers rights groups in our country (I am most familiar with MASI, but there are plenty within easily googleable reach.) and listen to and support people of colour when they talk about the racism they experience, instead of using the irish as justification for your victim complex. any irish person that encourages that is just a racist using our history of violence, genocide and displacement as their weapon.
To the welder I saw as I was leaving work yesterday: you were up on the roof of the building coming up next door. The sun was setting, the sky already dark behind you, and you were glowing reddish-pink in the light of your torch. You were lit up the exact color as the sky across the bridge, like you were holding your own sparking, setting sun. It would have been a beautiful painting, but I’m not a painter, and I wish you could have seen it.
I have no idea if I got this anything like the real image, but this is the image this post conjured in my mind. Just a quick and sloppy doodle because I read this and couldn’t not try to draw it.
This is so beautiful!!!! You got the colors just right
Pepsi distributed Dr Pepper (on the left) And Coca-Cola distributed Dr Pepper (on the right). Dr. Pepper isn’t owned by either company, it is it’s own company Keurig Doctor Pepper, BUT they don’t have a bottling facility. In an area, they use whichever bottling facility gives them the best deal. That’s why sometimes it’s Pepsi shaped and sometimes it’s Coke shaped.
@ everyone reblogging this currently, I hope you know that you got me back. I fell for my own post. Not only are we all fools, but we’re the entire circus
Chapter 1: I’ve been transported to a new world and must suck 100 dicks to get home??
Chapter 407: Grasping me by the shoulders, my bloodied senior says my father’s death wasn’t my fault, that I was just a scared kid and that I’m allowed to seek comfort. Weeping, I suck his– my hundredth– dick
I feel lucky that my pet became a meme that was not adopted and used by nazis. everyone that has told me they adore this meme is a cool person and not a scumbag loser. if she became the face of a crypto scam or the name of an illegal government entity id have a crisis
This is literally how movies introduce the most badass monster that’s gonna wreck the protagonist’s entire week.
The sudden stare
iD: A mesh sided cat carrier sits on a car seat. It is impossible to see inside but SOMETHING is in there, tearing at the mesh with all its might. We can see claws, hear the sounds of zippers jingling and the insistent ripping and plucking. After several seconds, the large eyes of a black cat become visible behind the mesh, followed by an anticlimactic, normal-volume meow.
if you say “I am going to pick up my car” then a superintelligence must surely ascribe non-negligible weight to the hypothesis that you are incredibly strong
The old CYC artificial intelligence engine used that example as one of many sample test cases used to debug the thing. Another was, “I saw the mountains flying over the ocean”.
It was memorable (to me) because unlike LLM AI, it relies on millions of human-defined rules as its knowledge base. Thus it took literal decades to train but theoretically doesn’t hallucinate like LLMs do.
I thought they’d abandoned the project. Wow.
Good Old-Fashioned AI as it was termed; it never worked but it was a tempting concept.
According to the company’s website, “Baking Pitchfest 2024” offers a product edition geared toward baking brands founded and owned by people of color across the U.S., and a bakery edition, which focuses on people of color-owned bakeries in the Northeast and Washington state.
“Half mentorship, half competition, Baking Pitchfest is an accelerator program designed to foster greater inclusivity and creativity in the baking world by providing equitable opportunities for People of Color entrepreneurs,” the website states, adding that winners will receive financial support, mentorship, and exposure.
But the initiative has generated outrage amongst conservatives online, who have blasted the competition eligibility rules as discriminatory against white people.
One X user critical of King Arthur Baking’s contest posted an email she received from the company in response to her complaining.
“Helping build joyful, equitable communities that celebrate diversity is an important part of who we are as a company,” the email states, later adding: “We love baking with anyone and everyone. Our simple expectation is that everyone show respect for one another.”
Time to buy more King Arthur Flour!
If you need more reason to support them, they’re worker owned.
I recall that when the She-Ra reboot came out there were some complaints that it was irretrievably tainted by modern attitudes towards identity politics or had the wrong art style or what have you and that seems funny as the original show is so obviously a product of its time, not least the way they look like a Eurovision entry from the ‘70s.
Brazil is the only non-Muslim country to host the most Shi'a Muslims in the world
Brazil has the “most X-people outside of X-place” of like, most kinds of people tbh
Brazil famously has the highest amount of Lebanese people in the world, including in Lebanon itself
literally Brazil is always “the largest X nation outside of X”
Fun fact about why we have so many Lebanese people:
Back in the day, they wanted to immigrate to the US, but the ships dropped them of in Brazil and were like “It’s all America” and left, leaving the poor Lebanese immigrants stranded. The rest, as they say, is history.
im not even the type of guy to go “actually it’s frankenstein’s MONSTER” because a painting by rembrandt or picasso or any other artist is often called “a rembrandt” or “a picasso” as shorthand. so in this respect frankenstein’s monster can be considered “a frankenstein”
darling I love your 8 foot tall patchwork flesh creature, it really livens up the place. is that an authentic frankenstein?
it’s only a true frankenstein if it was produced in the frankenstein region of switzerland. otherwise it’s just a sparkling homunculus
i’m solid ms. jackson wooooooooooooooo i have congealed
never meant to be a liquid guy, took some hours to solidify
That’s mist Jackson if you’re gassy
My baby’s plasmama don’t like me / She thinks I’m airy and very unstable / Unable to support her daughter / But what ‘er ways of making waves / Are doing is going to ruin our state of matter / What matters to the mater is her daughter’s joy / And boy I messed up I’ll own up but / Mist Jackson my actions have slowed / You know I’m tryin to align my particles / Your daughter knows I’ll hold my shape and her heart an’ cells / I’ll never make her cry again / No cryogen is called for, Mist Jackson, I swear / She needs me I’ll be there - a crystalline square
Being on this website is fun because you can absolutely tell when a blorbo clicks in someone’s brain. You’re scrolling, and suddenly out of nowhere there’s like 12 posts about the same character back to back reposted by the same person, and you just know “oh. They’re a permanent part of their psyche now.” and honestly it’s a vibe go off king
Top 4 fellas get made into a limited batch of keychains! I won’t be able to make a ton of these guys until later, but I do plan to make more eventually…
Please reblog so we get a high percentage! And also spread the word about these things the faster they sell out the more I’ll make 👍
obsessed with the woman at the dmv who replied with a firm “no” when asked if she wanted to be an organ donor but when the clerk asked “do you want junk mail? we sell your name and address to companies” she paused and gave a very thoughtful yet decisive “…yeah”
damn is this a new era of tumblr fake stories
is it truly that difficult to believe that some people are just bizarre
out of all the responses from ppl that have never been outside i’d say this is my favorite. like have you never just been in a room with other people that are speaking
love when someone makes one of those fake censored posts and dozens of people fall for it completely disregarding the fact that anyone can easily just post this picture
