Latin@ who has a sexuality crisis every couple of years.

Internet vernacular has completely altered what some words and expressions mean to me. Forevermore, I will hear the words "hear me out" will only and exclusively as "before you cast your judgements prematurely, please pause and allow me to explain how and why I should be allowed to fuck this thing".

when i say i like hiking, i donโ€™t mean โ€œeight mile backpacking trip with special gear and an emergency beaconโ€ sort of hiking, i mean a three mile loop to go look at pretty things and then a huge brunch after.

this is in no way a slam on hardcore hiking, itโ€™s very fun, but i mostly just need to lower peopleโ€™s expectations when i say hiking is a hobby of mine

"No no, that's ranger hiking. I like hobbit hiking."

Long Walks Georgs were outliers adn should not have been counted

So we all mocked the Minecraft movie and agreed to not give it money...only for y'all to immediately go see it?

It's lazy. It's ugly. They're banking on it being a huge money maker. They totally whitewashed Steve. Afaik there's a boycott on Microsoft rn (the company that Owns Minecraft). It has colonist undertones. Don't go see this pile of garbage. Yes even if they paid off your fave streamer to advertise it

As someone in and around their 30โ€™s it has been INSANE to see feminism in popular media descend through

  1. Women can wear pants and play sports and thatโ€™s equality. Women donโ€™t just belong inside the house. This woman has a career
  2. This woman can be a mechanic just like a man could. Sheโ€™s probably still a lesbian, though, which is basically the closest to a man a woman can *be*, and explains everything. But sheโ€™s still a person!
  3. If a woman superhero CHOOSES to wear stilettos to fight crime, thatโ€™s girl power! This comic character written and designed by men wears a bikini and has a waist size of 12 inches because it makes her FEEL POWERFUL! Girls donโ€™t HAVE to dress boyish to be strong! She can make you a sandwich AND be a feminist! Girl power!
  4. What, are you saying women HAVE to do boy things to be taken seriously? Who are you to tell a woman what to do? Maybe some women NEED to get their hair and nails done twice a month to feel powerful! Maybe a lot of women WANT to be stay-at-home moms!
  5. What I donโ€™t think you understand is that women have an inherent feminine spirituality which guides them towards maternal and nurturing paths. Women need to honour their divine female aura to keep their. Their fuckin. Their chakras together or some shit. You should put quartz up your hooha and huff wheatgrass. Leaving manual labour and science and technology to men is natural and good for you spiritually
  6. Uh she canโ€™t do that, thatโ€™s a blue job, sheโ€™s a pink job girly. Food? Yeah, sheโ€™s having #girl dinner, which is a handful of almonds. Time for our 15 step skincare routine, which is empowering. Hashtag #girlboss. Ew no, touching dirt? Sheโ€™s just a girl. You canโ€™t expect a girl to do that. Haha #girl logic

Like obviously demonizing and belittling stereotypically feminine interests and occupations isnโ€™t the answer and thatโ€™s not what I MEAN, I just see the argument going from

  1. Why would you want to wear pants? Boy stuff is icky anyways
  2. Women have the same potential as men
  3. Women can do anything men can!
  4. Women shouldnโ€™t be TOO MUCH like men, though.
  5. In fact, maybe women choosing to stick to historically female roles is BETTER.
  6. Actually, maybe women NEED to stick to feminine things.
  7. Woman actually have completely different needs and impulses than men.
  8. Is staying at home and raising babies the REAL empowerment?
  9. Women need to make sandwiches to survive actually
  10. Women are weak and incapable of complex thought and thatโ€™s *better* than being a man
  11. Why would you want to wear pants? Boy stuff is icky anyways

No, they are the same family. They are the same kingdom, phylum, order and family. They separate at the genus.

Theyโ€™re a dog.

yeah theyโ€™re fluffye

theyre literally not dogs theyre not even fluffy. can we get science tumblr over hear or what!?

checkmate athiests

okay but they literally are dogs, for those who are confused

If foxes are dogs, then so are wolves, coyotes, dingoes, jackals, and several other extant and extinct species.

Behold! A dog.

of course itโ€™s a dog you buffoon. itโ€™s fluffye.

Why on earth would someone think โ€œBUT IF THEYโ€™RE DOGS SO AR -โ€

Like yes of course wolves are dogs, where have you been. Jackals are excellent doggies! So are coyotes. Why is this confusing.

I love that this is literally two completely different arguments running simultaneously.

That guy up there who said theyโ€™re not even fluffy was thinking of sharks

sharks are also dogs. ravenous water dogs, but still dogs

Sharks can NOT be dogs they are SMOOTH
