I know most people don't care about anything unless it has to do with the U.S. but can we please start talking about the Canadian election.

Please don't vote for Poilievre. He's basically the Canadian Trump and plans to put in place laws that harm trans youth, and lots of other shit.

Please vote istg this is the only way anything will get better. Poilievre has been kissing millionaires and billionaires asses. He'll make life even harder, and he loves Trump.

Reblogs are appreciated, especially if you aren't Canadian.

okay it’s come to my attention that absolutely NONE OF YOU know ANYTHING about how cutie marks work. let me say this simply. a cutie mark isn’t a job being assigned, it’s a special TALENT OR SKILL that the pony enjoys. Most of the time it has a directly transferable job for that skill, like if you enjoy baking and are super good at it WOW! baker. If you are really good at writing and telling stories, author. However, there are some cutie marks that could go multiple ways.

twilight sparkle has exceptional magic ability, so she became a scholar, but she could really do anything that required a good magic skill. same with rainbow dash, her weather controlling job isn’t directly linked to her cutie mark, but it does fit the bill for the job.

i was posed the question of what would a murderer pony’s cutie mark be and wouldn’t everyone know. NO. if somehow murder were to be a special skill, the cutie mark might be something like a knife or a shovel. other ponies might just assume you’re good a cooking or gardening. now with cutie marks like apple jacks, their family has a ‘green thumb’ kind of deal so obviously the cutie mark would be hereditary.

so, the reason i made this post. walter white pony’s cutie mark would NOT be blue crystals. it would be a CHEMISTRY FLASK.

also, do people genuinely think that generative ai services will stay free? that the huge-energy-guzzling massive-trillions-of-dollars-of-investor-funding ai programs are going to be free to use forever?

my brothers in christ. they just want everyone to get dependent on it in Modern Life 2.0 and then they’ll turn the whole fucking thing into a subscription service.

nothing funnier to me than when AI does math wrong. like I get why it happens, it's a language model that's treating the numbers you feed it as words rather than integers and then giving you an answer based on how those words typically appear in a block of text instead of actually performing a calculation. but the one thing computers are genuinely incredible at. you fucked up a perfectly good calculator is what you did, look at it it's got hallucinations

Hi, I’m alive and I’ve managed to keep food and water down ✌️

...And I’m possibly getting a migraine. Ugh.

Guess who ended up in the ER because of the migraine and dehydration from vomiting?

Guess who also threw up so hard in front of nurses that my hip dislocated and proceeded to look at me like something from the Exorcist as I just casualy popped it back in between bouts of vomiting that also subluxated my neck and collar bone.

Guess who now has a prescription for compazine at home because finally a doctor is more concerned with the effects of my migraine and not the potential side effects of the drug.

Turns out scaring the living daylights out of staff with your bendy body is worth something.

Nobody need me. I’m staying in bed for the rest of the week.

Also, if anyone asks me if I’ve tried the hot foot bath trick affer reading this, I’m stealing your kneecaps.

Hot… foot… bath? Wtaf?

Tiktok ‘migraine hack’ you’re supposed to put your feet in hot water and it ‘draws the migraine out.’

There is actually some vague science behind how it works due to how some people’s blood pressure responds so their lower extremities being placed in hot water but it's been overhyped.

Actually, if you have POTS like me it's not recommend becauseit can cause blood pooling in your feet and then you get POTS symptoms which can worsen your headache, so, the more you know 🌈✨

Nein Again Episode 9

Yeah Silk & Dagger is way less horny than a lot of OG Forgotten Realms lore regarding drow that it's riffing off, but it is a lot more up front about being sort of a sex-comedy.

We asked ourselves "What kind of conditions would produce a society and individuals actually like this?" and then "What would develop as a result?" And the answer is this.. sexy dominatrix libertarian nightmare world.

Yeah ever since I've heard that Ed Greenwood gave a lore dump about how breast milk tastes like for each race in the forgotten realms I definitely agree with the title of "horniest man alive" like wdym tiefling breast milk tastes spicy and like cinnamon rolls like wtf

What. Okay, no, I have a complaint.

Tieflings breast milk doesn't taste spicy and like cinnamon rolls. Like this ain't even me baulking at the idea that different forgotten realms kith get to have differently flavored breast milk. That's the premise: I can buy into near any premise long enough to write 200 words about how wrogn the execution of the idea is.

So, of all the core kith in the Forgotten realms, Tieflings are one of the most diverse, sporting 10 different variants (Elves have 14, Humans have a rather undeserved 11 (tho discounting variants outside the FO, they drop to 4 and 0 respectively), and tied with dragonborn).

And given the nature of the teifling variants is whole-ass who the origin of fiendish blood is, which conveys a difference betwixt variants large-enough to in my opin make them seporate kith by a standard definition, with Tiefling being an umbrella term for these different disperate Kiths designed by the writers to convey a shared political reality of unfair and prejudical treatment steming from the fiendish origin these people had no say in choosing and aren't in anyway affluenced by. SURELY, this is a group which would, lineage depending, sport more than one flavor of breast milk.

Like, I can buy Asmodael Teiflings have cinnimon flavor'd breast milk. That's whatever. But at the very, at the very least, Levistean teiflings' breast milk ought to have cool minty undertones and aftertastes like a shamrock shake.

Lovely sentiment but the way it’s worded sounds like this dude got fucking killed during a little league game

i like working at plant store. sometimes you ring up someone and there's a slug on their plant and so you're like "Oh haha you've got a friend there let me get that for you" and you put the slug on your hand for safekeeping but then its really busy and you dont have time to take the slug outside before the next customer in line so you just have a slug chilling on your hand for 15 minutes. really makes you feel at peace with nature. also it means sometimes i get to say my favorite line which is "would you like this free slug with your purchase"

@holyknuckled you get it. lterally what are we here on earth for if not to occasionally impose gastropods upon unsuspecting customers. this story is delightful

This is a good reason to have scientific studies saying stuff like, "On average, trans people report happiness when they transition with loving family support and unhappiness when people dump acid on their head," like, yes it is intuitive, yes we knew that, but someday the study that is being passed around under the heading "water is wet," is going to be used to guide a court decision. And sometimes, when the the weather is fair and God smiles, it will result in some judge pounding the anti-trans arguments absolutely flat with a level of precise violence heretofore only seen in people making schnitzels, and that is a thing of beauty.

i think when it comes to knowledge gaps (especially on tumblr) its easy to get insecure about not knowing everything. but the real secret is that you can get away with not knowing everything if you just dont insert yourself into conversations you dont understand with blind confidence. the internet also gives you the privilege of 1) googling/wikipediaing shit before you say it, and 2) not volunteering how little you know. you dont actually have to enter the conversation just to say how little you know. part of the stereotype of dipshit stupid american on here is that americans will say full chestedly that they dont know which continent tchad is in and then go out of their way to justify it with their lack of education. when no one asked them to say either thing. and even if someone did ask, you are never under any obligation to actually answer.

Listen, folks, I also hate generative AI and do not think it is an effective accomodation, but if your argument against it is "Oh, you think [task] is hard? What a stupid idiot baby!" then I'm sorry to say that is Literally Just Ableism. Please think about what you are saying. The point should be that it doesn't actually work to solve the problems that people are struggling with, not that they're wrong for struggling in the first place.

Multiple people in the notes proudly saying "I'm only ableist to people I assume aren't disabled!" Wild thought: what if you just didn't say ableist things to anyone?

Given that Trump imposed tariffs on several uninhabited islands and oceanic territories, I think they had an intern look up the Wikipedia list of countries and make a spreadsheet.

UM GUYS. I JUST NOTICED A CRAZY ISSUE W THE TUMBLR UPDATE.

YOU CAN SEE THE ICONS OF ANONS SOMETIMES.

The way I was able to recognize several anons in one of my inboxes bc of this error. Oh my god. Guys. This isn’t supposed to happen.

Weighing in to say:

YES, I SEE THIS ON MOBILE. HOWEVER I DO **NOT** THINK IT'S SHOWING THE ANON'S REAL IDENTITY.

The profile pictures I see next to anon asks are profile pictures that belong to other, non-anon asks in my ask box also. Some info

I think the bug is the inbox INCORRECTLY attributing anons to neighboring, logged-in asks.

Which is still a bad bug! Considering it makes it look like a long-time follower of mine sent me a spam ask.

And is worse if, say, one of these was anon hate.

But it's NOT the anon's real identity. It's a neighboring ask asker's identity

So if you have anon hate in your inbox that looks like it's attributed to your dear friend, who sends you lovely asks all the time, it was Not them.

CONFIRMED THE BUG IS INCORRECT ATTRIBUTION.

Thanks @thepatchycat for being a test subject. As you can see the icon being attributed to this ask is NOT the patchy cat

The pictured icon belongs to @watchingforcomets who sent me a nice ask about nail polish yesterday which I have not yet answered!

this is actually insane? i genuinely pray they don’t get away with it because it’s beyond messed up

Look you can’t mythologize this man. He is real, and he is in danger. They cannot be allowed to get away with illegal searches and arrests
