HMS Surprise is a modern tall ship built at Lunenburg, Nova Scotia, Canada. The vessel was built in 1970 as HMS Rose to a Phil Bolger design based on the original 18th-century British Admiralty drawings of HMS Rose, a 20-gun sixth-rate post ship from 1757.

So many Americans seem to think that there is no society, and morality is literal magic. Like, people don't make choices based on a complex interlocking web of desires and institutions and material conditions. The world is good guys and bad guys. Deviance is a literal magical poison that disrupts the fabric of reality. If enough young women dye their hair blue, the crops will fail.
What suburbanism will do to you after enough time dog
Literally atomized to the point of duotheism. "wokeness" isn't a social phenomena, it's a synthetic evil god invented deep state actors that want custody of your kids.
civic duty
context: the heritage foundation is trying to launder data in support of doge by sending a survey to only their supporters and using blatantly leading questions. the survey takes less than 5 minutes and they don't verify your email
you CAN do it multiple times if you so wish
Oh good we broke the first one. New link is here, same story.
Cannot even make this shit up
Just did this, took 2 min!!
my infamously data skewing followers rise up!
My followers urge to scew poll results knows no bounds
i have never met an unpsychotic person who knows what it actually means to “not encourage the delusion” …not a single one
what “don’t encourage the delusion” means:
- don’t argue with or challenge the delusion—attempting to disprove someone’s delusions is not helpful at all and will result in that person not trusting you
- assure the delusional person that they are safe; be open and honest at all times
- encourage them to verbalize their feelings and offer protection to prevent injury to themselves or, possibly, others
- start building a trusting relationship with them rather than acting on a desire to control their symptoms
- do not confirm or feed into the delusion by asking questions about it when the person is not experiencing a psychotic episode
what it does not mean:
- insisting to a psychotic person experiencing psychosis that what they’re experiencing isn’t real
I don’t mean to trivialize psychosis by making a weird comparison, but this guide also serves as a handy checklist for helping someone through a bad drug trip. In both cases your number one priority is to get the person through whatever they’re dealing with unharmed.
i don’t think it’s trivializing at all, nor a weird comparison—as a psychotic person who has had psychotic episodes inadvertently triggered by drug use and/or worsened while trying to self-medicate with drugs, i think this is an important addition.
I must explain to my American followers. Follow me on this thought experiment.

And like. Imagine you just KNEW all this stuff. Passively, without looking it up, just from going about your life listening to music and watching TV and talking to strangers and scrolling through your blog

I’m just saying. It feels super weird

I’d love it if Fromsoft dedicated the next 6 years of development to various Victorian Horror themed games that aren’t Bloodborne as exclusives for every platform except Sony. 2026 is Duskbloods for Nintendo, 2027 is Borne Of Night for the Sega Saturn, 2028 is Bleeding Sunset for the PC98, 2029 is Basketborne for arcades, 2030 is Duskbloods Kart for Newgrounds, 2031 is Back 4 Borne for the Nokia C32, and 2032 is an anonymous yet suspiciously pro quality drop of a 60 character Bloodborne fighting game executable that runs in MUGEN.

its okay to be fat! unless you are on purpose. unless you've never tried dieting before. unless you're disabled. unless you're not actively trying to be the healthiest person in the room. unless you sit down. unless you drink soda. unless you aren't fashionable. unless you aren't white. unless you get off on it. unless you exist.
