Transandrophobes will say shit like “men are a priveliged group and trans men are men, therefore they cannot be victims of discrimination, unlike me” and then be white.
Hey *hand on shoulder* you know that Greece, along with most of the balkan countries, has been under ottoman turkish rule for more than 400 years? You know that Greece today has many economic problems today, despite it’s history being rich?
You know that Greece is very prone to forest fires and natural disasters?
Also, do you know that Greece, along with Serbia, Croatia, Bosnia and Herzegovina, as well as Montenegro… They are all protesting against corruption, and no one talked about it.
You talk about wanting to have temples to worship in modern day, but you don’t care about the land that those temples would be built on?
Greece may be an Orthodox Christian country. But trust me, the gods are still very much living there. Their spirit is still there. Poseidon is still ruling the waves, Zeus is still watching over in the sky, Demeter is taking care of the crops.
All i am asking is… Spread awareness. I am saying this on behalf of my greek friend, firstly, who has complained to me about their issues not being heard. LEARN HISTORY. STUDY CURRENT WORLD EVENTS. SEND LOVE TO THE LAND OF GREECE, WHO HAS ENDURED GREAT HARDSHIPS.
thinking about the time they sent me a seven year old autistic patient to investigate if he was suffering abuse because in every psychological test he kept drawing awful monsters
and I start the consultation already miserable as fuck and I give the kid some pen and paper so I can maybe communicate and see what’s on his mind
and then I go WAIT A GODDAMN SECOND I KNOW THOSE MONSTERS
turns out the kid just had a special interest in Five Nights at Freddy’s
I pointed at the monster and went “That’s Freddy!” and I’ve never seen a kid that ecstatic in my life
the mom looked at me as if her son and I belonged at the same satanic cult and that’s why I knew the names of the demons in his head
I wrote back to psychologist like “I’m not sure how to explain this but looking up five nights at freddys might bring you progress with this patient”
at some point the nurses realized the autistic children and I were like, Really Vibing
so they decided to highkey just appoint all of them to my day and it took me almost a month to realize that the fact that I kept arriving and finding that all of today’s appointments were autistic children was Not A Coincidence
anyway this one time there was a kid who was really into christianity but it was like, specifically angels
so I’m trying to start up a conversation with him and I ask what he’s reading and he goes “do you know what a nephilim is”
and like for one hellish second my soul is suckerpunched out of my body and thrown straight into supernatural-fanfic-on-wattpad hell, and then I reassume control of my flesh prison, ignoring the mental edits of Dean and Castiel making out, and go “Aren’t those the guys who are half human and half angel?”
and the kid was so fucking happy but the mom was staring at me like ‘why are you privy to this bit of occult jesus lore’
and my heathen lesbian of a self just looks at her and goes
“i love bible”
It’s almost like taking an invested interest in what your children enjoy will help you understand them.
that addition might be the most savage call out i’ve ever seen
I just used the line “that’s not an asshole move, it’s a whole asshole ballet” and I’m kinda proud of it so it’s going here where it will get the recognition it deserves.
A pas de douche, if you will
All right, the rest of you can go home, this one wins.
image how much better if everyone, adults, teens, younger kids, all got recess. like if everyone got 45 minutes to an hour to just play around outside, do fun things, be “childish” and things
like my post you cowards, imagine it!
a judge: the court will now take a recess
all the lawyers: [scramble to put on sneakers and get to the playground first]
Where in the world did the argument that trans men don’t experience misogyny ever come from. Did you guys not see the word “trans” at the beginning of “trans man”.
There’s a reason that I’m talked over and infantilized in cis man dominated spaces. There’s a reason that there isn’t a single person like me in my STEM department. There’s a reason that I am forever terrified of forced pregnancy.
I sure as shit don’t feel benefitted by the patriarchy, and surely neither do trans women. It’s almost like we both experience systemic misogyny in both similar and completely different ways. Hm.
I bet one of the fun parts of filming action movies is getting picked to be one of the guys who aims laser pointers at a character’s chest to imply they’re being targeted by snipers
I am picked for laser pointer duty but am immediately demoted for hovering it over the actor’s weenie during the climactic scene
Or you use a plastic/silicon spatula?? Or a silicon whisk?? go to literally any dollar store they have shitty plastic/silicon kitchen utensils you can scramble eggs with without scratching up your pans
Having your main anxiety response be Avoidance is crazy cause you’ll think you’re chillin and then one day you’re like waitttt I’ve been paralyzed with fear this whole time. Damn
Was anybody else playing dead the whole time they were teenagers or is that just a me problem. Like I’m 20 now and I’m like Oh shit I didn’t do anything. Because I’m scared
I feel like 90% of “ancient curses” are probably adequately explained by the fact that the self-proclaimed adventurers who ostensibly fell victim to them were, as a class, a bunch of dipshits who engaged in frequent international travel in an era before antibiotics and vaccines. Like, the list of novel pathogens these guys were risking exposure to on a regular basis was effectively “all of them”. That’s gotta leave a mark.
firm believe that not everything happens for a reason, sometimes things are just cruel. and they shouldn’t have happened and it’s not supposed to be a lesson because we never deserved such thing.
hm some people in my inbox got really mad at this specifically. nothing you can say will convince me that some of the pain and suffering we go through is our “fate” no, it isn’t
@rokirovka blease tell me what these poor benighted motherfuckers are saying
@theminism tbf speakers 1 and 2 seem like pretty reasonable people… i can’t really translate much of what the benighted motherfuckers involved are saying since they’re farther away (and swearing is hard to translate) but here goes nothing lmao just for you
speaker 1: What, they can’t drive out of each other’s way?
speaker 2: It looks like they can’t drive out of each other’s way. There’s not enough space. And they’re fighting.
speaker 1: They should have just pulled off and let the excavator go first.
speaker 2 [interrupting]: Of course.
speaker 1: What the heck are they doing over there
speaker 2: What the heck
speaker 1: Woah woah what the heck okay wow
speaker 2: What the hell [gets out of car] Hey, hey guys! What the f[this is where the beep comes in] are you doing!
speaker 3: Don’t take pictures!
speaker 2: I’m filming!
speakers 3 and 4: [inaudible] Don’t take pictures! Put the phone away!
speaker 2: Guys, calm down!
[the reckoning arrives]
speakers 3 and 4: [general yelling] No no no! f[beep]! Wow! Wow! [yelling continues inaudibly]
speaker 2: Wow guys! [laughs] Fuck, dudes! Wow you messed up! [laughs] now that, man, is a fuck up! Motherf[beep]! Get ‘em!
“Wah this section of worldbuilding I’m doing is so minute and kinda pointless to the larger scheme of things, hurr durr I’m just focusing on some whatever part when I have actual story and plot to figure out-” WHO CARES. YOU ARE THE GOD OF YOUR UNIVERSE. HAVE FUN CREATING IT.
And truth be told, the little stuff matters
You might think exploring and creating a kingdom or town not part of the main story is a waste of time. Fabricating folk lore of the region. Thinking about how the common citizen worships their gods and temples.
It creates depth, it fleshes out the world
And, most importantly, it keeps you creating
And creating is the most important part of why we’re here! So, yeah, even if its pointless, you thought about it, created it from nothing, enjoyed the process!
hey guys! here’s some fun things i learned from this article about Dion Diamond:
he did these sit-ins by himself. like idk about you, but i always thought of sit-ins as organized by groups, what kind of bravery does it take, man
he didn’t tell anyone about it, like he was no glory-seeker about this. his parents didn’t even know until reporters started calling them up like “hey, did you know your son is in jail?
when someone called the cops he’d skedaddle out the back door although he was sent to prison multiple times
the last time he got arrested was in Baton Rouge, and the cops were so sick of him that they told inmates they’d put in a good word for anyone who gave Diamond a hard time. (the inmates didn’t take the bait.)
he’s still alive!
hark, a hero of our times!
That is unbelievable courage!
A fucking nazi in that last shot too. Damn clear that the u.s. always had a nazi problem.
anyone here got tips for making custom themes in vesktop not have a stroke under wayland
also the whole program’s ui hangs whenever i end a screenshare
i’ll send videos of both happening if wanted
but those issues and streaming performance are the only things stopping me from switching to wayland, as everything else i do runs great, and it even fixes my cursor theme
[Image Description: A fifteen-panel black and white fan art comic of the Warner siblings from Animaniacs. All of the panels feature the artist’s name, GrantedDrop, hidden somewhere in the image and overlaying the image as a semi-transparent watermark.
In the first panel, Wakko is sitting in the foreground of a hallway, frowning in confusion with tongue out and arms crossed. A large question mark floats in the air near Wakko’s head. In the background, Yakko and Dot peek around the corner of the hallway.
The second panel is a closeup of Yakko and Dot with vaguely concerned expressions on their faces.
The third panel is the same closeup, but now Yakko and Dot are looking at one another with eyebrows raised. Dot is shrugging with one arm.
The fourth panel features all of the Warner siblings, with Yakko bending down to rest a hand on Wakko’s shoulder and Wakko turning to look at him. Yakko is asking, “What’s wrong, sib?” Dot is leaning forward with her hands clasped near her chin and saying, “Yeah, you can talk to us!”
In the fifth panel, Dot is holding Wakko’s right arm, and Yakko is kneeling down and holding Wakko’s left hand. Yakko and Dot are both smiling. Wakko has one foot braced against the floor, as if getting ready to stand, and is frowning slightly at the viewer while saying, “People keep telling me that gender is what’s in your pants…”
In the sixth panel, Dot and Yakko yank Wakko up into the air, and there are arrows and vague outlines of Wakko’s body left behind to indicate the rapid motion. Yakko is standing with a hand on his hip and is smiling at the viewer with one eyebrow raised.
In the seventh panel, Wakko lands, standing and sticking out one leg, gesturing down at it. Dot and Yakko stare at it, frowning in contemplation with their hands held up to their chins. Wakko is saying, “But I’m not wearing any pants!”
In the eighth panel, Dot and Wakko look over at Yakko. Dot is holding the edge of her skirt and saying, “Well, Yakko, you’re the only one of us with pants.” Yakko is frowning and rifling around inside his pants pocket, saying, “Hmm…”
In the ninth panel, Yakko holds up a finger triumphantly, with his other hand still in his pocket and a proud smile on his face, saying “Aha! I thiiink I found it!”. Dot and Wakko stare at him in surprise and curiosity.
The tenth panel is a closeup of Dot and Wakko, who are looking up at Yakko’s arms, which are holding a large quantity of deli meat above their heads. Dot and Wakko both have confused looks on their faces, and Wakko is saying, “Deli meat?”
The eleventh panel features Yakko’s hands dropping an enormous pile of deli meat on top of Dot and Wakko, obscuring them entirely. The word “FLUMP” appears over the sticks of meat to indicate the sound of them hitting the ground.
The twelfth panel shows just the pile of deli meat, with a speech bubble emerging from where Dot was standing that reads, “‘Best by:…’ How many decades ago?!”
In the thirteenth panel, Yakko is standing next to the pile of meat with a smile on his face and his hands raised in a shrug as he looks at Dot and Wakko. Dot and Wakko’s faces are scrunched in exertion as they pop their upper bodies out of the meat pile. Yakko is saying, “Well, I guess that settles it.”
In the fourteenth panel, Yakko is smiling with his arms crossed and looking over at Dot. Dot and Wakko are still half-way inside the meat pile, and Wakko is looking at Dot with a blank expression. Dot is smiling and saying, “Yeah, their concept of gender’s just a bunch of out-of-date baloney.”
In the fifteenth and final panel, all of the Warner siblings turn to smile smugly at the viewer with half-closed eyes. The word “End” is written in the bottom right corner. /End ID]
I wonder if people could selectively breed wild birds by giving the males with the most desired characteristics the The Most Fuckable Leg Band. Year after year you mark the males that have the most features that you want these birds to have, and the bright shiny leg ring makes the females want these specific males, passing on more and more of the desired traits.
pretentious moment incoming but why is everyone’s idea of fashion so fucking boring these days. why the fuck did my manager just ask me “what’s with the scarf”. “what’s with the scarf” fuck man do I need a reason to wear a faggy little scarf now? you could just say “nice scarf man”. what’s with your attitude
You know, as the concept of “zombifying fungi” becomes more and more popular, I notice it still referred to everywhere as like a “brain parasite.” So I guess a lot of people overlooked or forgot how in 2019 it was discovered that cordyceps and other similar fungal parasites leave the brain and nervous system completely untouched. They only control the muscles. They use chemical signals to make the muscles flex in real time where they want to go :)
It’s funny how many people are replying “but that’s worse!” like you didn’t know that’s exactly why I put a smiley
when you find a friends oc hot thats literally it for you. they practically own your soul. youve entered a fail state in which they can put on a sockpuppet and do a silly voice and make you swoon like youve locked eyes with a gorgeous fortysomething dyke at the bar
I think it’s interesting when people watch an anime aimed at 14 year olds and are like “why is all anime about children?!?! Why are anime set in school so much?!?!?” Like buddy. Have you tried watching anime not meant for children? Have you tried watching the anime not set in schools?
