I know a bunch of people are into this as a kink thing, but as a person who is really into survivalism, this is so cool.

there's that post i can't find rn that's like "nothing shows you nationalism is fake as much as listening to different national anthems after each other, they're alk the same" and of course everyone is always like "not MY country's national anthem, that one's unique" but for real. not MY country's national anthem. that one's unique.

other national anthems: triumphant music, "oh our beautiful lands and soldiers and heritage"

hungarian national anthem: depressive, slow music, "oh our beautiful lands and heritage, too bad everything sucks for us all the time constantly, and then we die forever"

When you hit your elbow against something, but that specific point of your elbow

it’s…called your funny bone…

that gif tho 

It’s not a bone actually- it’s a nerve that is exposed, specifically the ulnar nerve. The reason it feels so weird to hit it is that it’s not designed to deliver pain signals, so when you hit it it just wiggs out and sends Garbage signals to the brain, and the brain is just like “uh, dude- Ulnar, what the hell is this garbage?? You’re supposed to curl a finger and a half, and move some muscles in the forearm, why are you sending me this crap? How am I supposed to make this into sensory output?” And the Ulnar nerve is just like “dude dude dude, brain- what the hell is going on?!?” And the brain goes- “idiot. Fine. You’re on fire, freezing and being electrocuted. Happy?” And the Ulnar goes “holy crap brain!! I’m on fire, freezing and being electrocuted! What am I going to do!!??!” And the brain says “you’re an idiot ulnar. A damn idiot.”

This is how human anatomy should be taught

Absolutely. I learned so much in a minute-

I recently got an on-campus job. During the interview process, I requested that I not be scheduled on Friday nights or Saturdays as I am a Jewish student.

My boss immeadiately brightened and rushed to explain - "Of course ! Of course! We want to accomodate you! We have another worker who takes off for Ramadan. Do you need to take off for Ramadan?"

I shook my head, incredibly confused. "Uh. That's. Not my jurisdiction. I'm good." Boss nodded but was sure to add "Let me know if that ever changes. We can help you with Ramadan."

@vangoggles THAT WHAT I WAS SAYING .

And I was finally on a shift with this guy. We were both sitting in silence because we had the ass-crack-of-dawn slot.

Over my coffee and twirling my Magen David necklace around my finger, I say "So. Ahmed. Ramadan.

And Ahmed over his energy drink, sighs - "don't you say shit about that."

#what's the bet Ahmed was just asking for certain shifts during Ramadan and Boss got excited and was like “just take the whole ramadan off!”#“don't even worry about it! we support you! take the time you need!” I'm scheduled to work with him tomorrow morning so will find out then 🫡 .We're both STEM majors who use the early empty hours to study so I will report if I get more than a grunt out of him about it.

another stupid-early morning, and between our respective course loads- him organic chemistry and me pathophysiology- I asked for the full story in how he got all of Ramadan off.

He sighed, and let me know that he did indeed try to explain to our manager that all he needed was to get shifts not around sunrise or sunset. But that in him explaining what Ramadan was, the plot very quickly got lost into this unhinged confusion where our boss was trying to google how people could survive an entire month without food or water.

So halfway through, he decided to pivot and go along with it, expecting less shifts in March because that's a difficult academic time anyway. Then, he had to keep a straight face when the end-product was the entire time off with paid leave.

So, now, he's in a hell partially of his own making where his boss genuinely believes he doesn't eat for a month and is trying to offer all non-Christian workers March off. I offered him time off for Hanukkah. He hit his head against the desk, and groaned.

wait, follow up question, what's he going to do next year when it's not in March anymore?

I was also wondering this, so I asked him this most recent shift together. He paused, considered the question for a moment, then answered- "I'll have to check my syllabus and decide then."

You heard it here first- newest update to the Islamic Calender. Ramadan is dependent on Ahmed's course-load. (He saw this post on a Youtube short and was amused by it, so he doesn't detest the weird tumblr coworker. He also only gets a quarter of his normal paycheck for the month, which is not terrible at all for vacation.)

(Also. My boss is still convinced I observe Ramadan.)

Happy Ramadan to Ahmed and his course load. The Muslim Jewish solidarity nobody could have predicted. 🤣

brb trying this

Very sincerely yours,

it’s always “can I suck willgrahamscock” and never “how is willgrahamscock” 😔

love it when I start getting "based on your likes" terf bullshit every few posts and I have to scramble back through my recent likes to figure out what innocuous meme poisoned the well

gender is made up nobody is doomed to any special horrible fate because of how they were born everyone gets to choose how they live their own life trans rights are human rights now TOUCH GRASS

tumblr: I see you've hit "not interested in this post" on the last eight recommended posts I've shown you about how you're innately weak and fragile and surrounded by evil predators that will eat you alive and your life is naturally under the control of the big strong alpha males who rule all of reality and your only freedoms are the scraps they deign to dole out to you because you have no power or agency or ability or value and you're a useless weak little baby who should never go outside in case a Man decides to Hurt You, but hear me out - I think you'll really like this ninth post that says the exact same thing!

thank fuck it's finally worn off, I can go back to scrolling without being constantly flashbanged by people who think feminism is when you do the misogyny to yourself instead of waiting for the boys to do it for you

me as a 14th century knight: this sucks i'm gonna fms (translator's note: fall on my sword)

Alternatively: fuck my squire

[remembers falling on my sword jokes negatively impact my knight's oath] ...fuck my squire

i feel like nobody has NOTPs anymore. like if you hate a ship now it has to be for some deep moral reason and you have to justify it to everyone what happened to just not liking stuff that isnt inherently bad but just because you personally think it sucks

Happy ace day! He scream for ACEcream.

how i'm handling my students using AI to write papers:

-don't accuse them on using AI from the get-go and instead ask them to informally define all the huge words that they used in their essay which i know they don't know the meaning of

-ask to see their original file where they "wrote" the essay. go to version history to see if it was just copy and pasted and then just edited a bit. i keep an eye out for the shit like "certainly! here's an essay about...."

-if they own up to it, they can re-do the assignment for a higher grade even if there will be an automatic penalty. if they don't, i process it like plagiarism and get my supervisor involved.

And this is much better than the immediate accusations. Some students have a good vocabulary. Stop accusing them of faking their essays without proof, and this is a good way to check.

Thinking about the Holmes story where a blind girl goes to him and is like "My fiancé is missing and he kept telling me the week leading up to his disappearance that he would always love me and come back for me,were anything to happen so I think he knew he was in trouble and I love him so much and I'm going to wait for him but I'd like to find him faster,ya know?" And Holmes figures out that it was this girl's parents to scam her out of money she was owed from an estate which she gave to them because she was still living at home,which she wouldn't be if she ever married,so her step father PRETENDED TO DATE HER for MONTHS to keep her from ever getting engaged to a real person and when Holmes finds out he confronts this man and this man is like "Well,you caught me! But it wasn't illegal:) so:)" and Holmes is like "No,but it was sickening and cruel and if she had a brother or good male friend he should post you up and whip you but she doesn't." And the man is like "No,she doesn't." And does the Victorian version of sticking his tongue out and Holmes is like "Well,I guess I'll do then!" And HE PULLS OUT HIS HUNTING WHIP.

YES! ALWAYS THINKING ABOUT THIS ONE.

WHAT A KING.

Also the first case of Holmes deciding ‘Yeah, this vulnerable young woman is my sister/daughter now. No take backs.’

I wish more people remembered that Holmes is absolutely feral and ready to throw hands about real injustice and humanities cruelty rather than just thinking he's just a smart guy who likes being smug about how smart he is

Which is why I absolutely adored Jeremy Brett's portrayal of the man himself.

There's an episode where he's in a country pub and a local is being an asshole; Holmes goads the guy into clocking him, and then he tells everyone in the building "you all saw that, I did not throw the first punch!" And proceeds to demolish the guy.

I got to see a bunch of these while they were being repeated when I was a kiddo and he really was such a good Holmes <3

I remember reading this story as a kid and it is absolutely the one that made me look at bbc sherlock and go something is not right here

This is why Elementary is so much better as a modern Sherlock Holmes story

While Elementary! Sherlock can be abrasive, rude and arrogant at the same time right from the very first story the show gets across that he CARES and that helping people is something that he does because its what should be done and not just because he wants to show off how smart he is and make other people feel stupid

maybe if somebody didn't keep letting the elephant inside we wouldn't have to keep talking about him being in the damn room
