if you’re a baby trans and you haven’t started smoking cigarettes or vaping yet don’t. it’s actually not that hot or interesting. It will just cause you ungodly frustrations and suffering and cost you a bunch of money and be next to impossible to quit
Just tagging on like. Your lungs work just fine. Don’t change that.
If you want to look hot and mysterious just chew on toothpicks, it implies good dental hygiene and an immaculate vibe
Smoking rates are stupidly high in the queer community but especially with trans people and especially trans men. It’s common to feel peer pressured into smoking in trans spaces. And man I love this community but don’t smoke. Don’t try to encourage others to smoke. Whatever you want to get out of it there’s something else that’ll help that’s cheaper and won’t fill your lungs with tar and dried blood. Caffeine, lollipops, adhd meds, chewing on pens, dying your hair, sex, therapy, an appointment with a dietician. Try any of these things and more before even looking at nicotine.

Nintendo hatedom is crazy because like wdym y’all think the switch 2 not having an OLED screen and having inflation pricing is the most anti consumer, discourse worthy thing they’ve ever done but peach’s VA finding out she got recasted the day Mario kart world launched isn’t worth raising hell over or talking about whatsoever???
I’m sorry to everyone who found out peach got recasted through a post of me venting my frustrations ;-;
She posted about it on her instagram and the people who make hating Nintendo their whole personality have not said a single word about it because they’re still stuck on the damn console not having an OLED screen and that pisses me off to no end
Going insane about kicked dog with rabies type characters
On a more serious note though perhaps I’m obsessed with this because I want more sympathy for characters who externalize their problems. Fuck being a perfect victim fuck being a decent one, something horrible was done to you and it was never recognized and you will never ever get back the person you were before, you had everything taken from you and now all you’re left with is anger and sharp things and you know what. You should be able to bite people about it
can you imagine how freaky shark mermaids would be like unlike sharks, shark mermaids would have actual arms/hands and could rely on touching things with their hands to see if they’re prey rather than having to bite like sharks do. like youre just swimming in the ocean and suddenly you feel a strong grip on your leg, you freak the FUCK out because uh what????? the fuck??? youre swimming alone in the ocean??
a head pops out of the water, dorsal fin pointed from its back and it just points at you and says in a low whisper: “i thought you were a seal. please dont swim alone like this, im sorry i scared you i just wanted to see what you are” and then disappears back into the depth. what the fuck.
no come back ma’am

just because someone is your favorite character doesnt mean theyd have the same moral alignment as you. wheatley from portal wouldnt say “my pronouns are he/him, thank you for asking!” hed say “what uhh. what does that mean. um. you mean the nouns im most "pro” at is that what youre saying? i like to think im pretty pro,, at all nouns really. umm lets see… apple, kazoo, bubble, happy, door, umm… cake. not too fond of cake really i think its alright but. not my Favorite. if it were up to me though id eat a whole cake in one sitting. if i were a human. not a human, clearly. also not sure if id, know what cake even tastes like. if i tried it. no tastebuds. no Mouth… no. hole. anywhere on my body. haha um,, well anyways id. id say im pretty Pro Nouns. dont see why anyone wouldnt be… what? you mean what i Go By? what do you. ohhhh. ummm. the male ones. the male pronouns. if i can remember what they are… definitely the ones for guys. manly men. like me. pretty sure im a man,,,“ and you need to accept this

been hearing bs like “the wiki says he’s a minor but the only proof pavlova cookie is a minor is when eternal sugar calls him ‘young’ and 'little one’ ” BRO. I’m sorry but his design is a child. He resembles a cherub, a literal baby, and has the exact same proportions as every other child character. There’s actually a fucking crazy amount of ppl trying to say they like Pavlova romantically and I’m sorry… He’s a child dawg I’m sorry. If you were told otherwise just know he’s most likely a child. C'mon now don’t josh with me here.
this is maybe the funniest discourse ever. hes a cookie. from cookie run. they all have childlike designs because they Are Cookies From The Game Cookie Run. god it must be exhilarating to not have real problems

“i asked chatgpt and” ok well i asked the demon in a red paisley suit that i see in my dreams and he sent me a wax-sealed red envelope from across the lake asking me to bring him strawberry preserves

About twoish years ago I had this completely inscrutable dream where there was a new cardinal direction (like north, east, west, south) that suddenly started existing and was basically east but on a different directional plane. The name of the dimension/direction called “Crust”.
The way the Crust functioned was that the laws of physics changed where approximately 1 out of every 100 times something attempted to move east as relative to a compass, you’d accidentally cross into the Crust plane and be caught in a weird limbo dimension where your surroundings were a forever-looping snippet of whatever you last saw before entering the Crust. Think of how the infinite stairs in Super Mario 64 or how looping backgrounds in old cartoons like The Flintstones worked. Except, the further you descended into the Crust, the more your surroundings would gradually saturate and grow brighter until you were left with solid opaque white surroundings, and you would completely lose your sense of time and direction if you progressed too far.
This was an issue because the only way to escape the Crust was to move extremely fast westward and hope you could break “through” the crust back into regular reality, and you had to do so through the approximate point you entered the Crust. Some people would travel into the Crust for minutes or hours at a time not realizing they were in the Crust until they were inconveniently far from their starting point. There were even a few individuals who got presumably permanently lost in the Crust when they descended too far in to know how to navigate to their return point.
It got to a level where people in the dream were creating weird, deep-fried memes about how the Crust ruined their commute to work, which @/solsticeinstars and @/morrighancorbel on Twitter tried to make recreations of based on my description. There would be school classes cancelled because their teacher got Crusted and they couldn’t find a substitute in time, or truckers that went missing because they got Crusted while on their route and, tired from the road, didn’t realize they were in it until the point of no return.
I have nothing else to add this dream just haunts me and I needed to share it here
I like when the bus stops directly in front of you out of the line of waiting people and opens its doors. Chosen by the dragon
I hate this post. Ever since I read it I can’t help but think “chosen by the dragon” whenever the bus stops in front of me or “denied by the dragon” when it doesn’t. Every. single. time. That’s a minimum of ten times a week. Do you know how annoying that is
In your average city builder, you play as an almighty God Mayor who does not have to listen or interact at all with his citizens, he has complete power of life and death over them and can shape the city at will. Except for Traffic, the most powerful force in the universe and the only thing that actually matters to simulate in a city simulator. Everything else is just a backdrop for Traffic.
the citizenry knowing this spend as much time as they can using cars as their primary mode of transportation as they know this causes the most Traffic, and when a route they want to use is clogged every day they make sure to never detour
they’re opening up a new sister store in a different province and they asked me to do some email correspondence with my joint health and safety counterpart out there to help him get set up and run the team, but they warned me before hand that he was “notoriously difficult” so i was absolutely dreading this thinking “shit, he’s gonna be one of those guys who thinks taking direction is an insult to his masculinity and he’s gonna be rude and suck”
but it turns out he’s just really autistic and needs super clear direction + he writes his emails like a 1911 telegram. i LOVE this guy. i’ve never worked with someone who wrote so clearly and in such detail, and absorbs everything i say. plus whenever he gets an email he responds immediately with “received. response to follow. thank you.” top 10 coworkers of all time. top 5 even.
„Difficult“ the man is literally the only son of a bitch on the planet communicating fucking properly
ARE YOU SAYING YOU DON’T APPRECIATE MY PAINSTAKINGLY HAND RENDERED MATH I COULD HAVE WRITTEN THIS OUT ON THE SHITTY TUMBLR TEXT EDITOR THAT HAS NO BUILT IN EQUATION TYPESETTING YOU KNOW
oh I love this guy’s stupid name it’s basically just a stack of nested prefixes. Parapropalaehoplophorus basically means “similar to Propalaehoplophorus”, which in itself means “early Palaehoplophorus” which then in turn means “ancient Hoplophorus”
So this animal is basically called Similar-Early-Ancient-Hoplophorus. I can only assume this was a deliberate bit to pack on as many prefixes as possible, and I propose that the next step in the chain should be to start adding suffixes too. get ready for Parapropalaehoplophoroides
Pseudoparapropalaehoplophorus would also be an option; to the same effect as the suffix -oides, more or less.
I re-blogged this (the first time) in 2014. Today, I tried half a dozen times to re-blog it, and it wouldn’t work. So, I saved the images and re-posted it. I hope it helps make life a little easier. :-)

Long but cool as hell.
I’ve been using these tips for ten years and not one has failed me.
remember when “lifehacks” were useful?
Those where the days.
remember when lifehacks - good or not - were hacks and not fully just new products?
sometimes you’ll see a post on the dash with a hundred something notes, and you won’t think twice about it until you scroll and realize with a sense of horror that all of those notes were from a single person, that person being your mutual, and suddenly your dash is just a single photo of a lobster for the next couple hours
bro last night was totally redacted! last night was fully expunged from the record. bro, do you… can you remember last night? what did we do…? what did… did we hurt someone? bro? why won’t you look at me? what did I do…? whose blood is this…? bro…?
esoteric form of roleplay where instead of actually roleplaying you just make up characters together and discuss in abstract how they’d interact and how their story would go
im glad everyone agrees that this is fun. do this with your friends now !!!
Counter point, those machines can make me a peach sprite.
guys did you know the tech in that nefangled machine revolutionized preemie healthcare
yeah the guy who invented them made incredibly precise infusion pumps (as opposed to gravity fed ivs) which not only meant they could give medications to teeny tiny babies safely, it’s also used for insulin pumps and portable dialysis machines. the key element is that it’s a peristaltic pump so the liquid stays in sterile tubing for safety
(unholy drink cloaca uses it to dispense precise amounts of flavored sugar syrup)
huh it is weird how purple is so often used in video games for stuff like corruption or dark magic or whatever
Makes a lot of sense actually:
Purple barely occurs in nature
is a good contrast color that stands out in most environments and as such can overtake them
It is dark enough to benefit from the evil = black association, but is much easier to work with than black and gray in animation
It mixes blue, “good“ and red, “evil“ together (while still being vibrant if you want it to be, mixing green and red as an alternative wouldn’t work bc you just end up with brown)
associated with royalty and as such with power, and corruption through power
green as a poison color doesn’t work for a lot of games bc green is already associated with health, so you need something else
It fucking slaps
love how video games and movies (and the like)® have such different color themes due to different use cases. (eg: the health bar)
You see a lot more green = evil / poison in movies (and the like)®
