Sometimes it's nerdy, sometimes it's queer, sometimes it's revolutionary, and sometimes it's crap I reblog for later and never look at again ๐Ÿคทโ€โ™€๏ธ

there are teenagers today using smartphones who donโ€™t even remember the real gun emoji. they have never experienced it.

Never forget what they took from us

It's 1am and I'm buying 120m of wood on the internet because I needed a door so I'd say adulthood is going alright

Metres? Like? Square? Or is this gonna be one long, thin door?

Had to pay $50 delivery for the door anyways so I figured I'd also get as much material as I could for my next project to avoid paying another $50 to get that delivered at a later date.

Love the way this is phrased like a 120m2 door would make more sense

Full human body has 2 square meters of skin. So thatโ€™s like 60 skin-suits worth of door. If that helps anyone else visualize it.

thanks Babs, we can always count on you

this website is free bc no one would ever pay to see this post

obviously furries can be 100% nonsexual for a lot of ppl but once you start talking down to furry kinksters & acting like this whole damn community wasnt built on people wanting to fuck tony the tigers brains out or some shit youve lost the plot entirely to be honest

The world's first furry convention, Confurence 0, featured a dance performed by fursuiter Hilda the Bambioid in 1989.

Here's a picture of Hilda in 1988, wearing the same outfit:

The best way I've ever heard it described is "Furry isn't inherently sexual. But it's very aware and under no pretenses about it." In my experience. Furry ain't anymore sex-focused than comics, anime, or any other nerd subculture. God knows I've heard my share of anime-con hookups and klingon bdsm stories. But it's here, it's (largely) queer, and you can fucking get use to it.

Furry started out as a spin off of comic conventions. Like they were called "Funny Animal" conventions back in the day because it carried the name of the comic genre. But it's been there since the beginning and if you know comic conventions that should be proof enough.

[โ€œA spell-breaking response to nonsense, in one word, is โ€œWhat?โ€ When I first used it, I didnโ€™t think it was going to be particularly effective. Surely, I thought, I could have come up with something really clever. But now as time has passed, I realize that this response is very effective. I didnโ€™t fall into the trap of trying to explain myself, and โ€œWhat?โ€ is useful for many reasons.

Nonsense canโ€™t be understood. By saying โ€œWhat?โ€ Spellbreakers donโ€™t give Controllers the impression that their letโ€™s pretend world is real. In fact, they donโ€™t even want to try once they clearly understand that irrational behavior is a sign of the spell.

When a Spellbreaker responds to nonsense by saying โ€œWhat?โ€ the Controller usually says something just as nonsensical. To be effective the Witness again said, โ€œWhat?โ€ and so on.

If you hear someone telling you what you should do, are, have been, etc., and you say โ€œWhat?โ€ several good things happen.

1. You โ€œcanโ€™t hearโ€ nonsense so you donโ€™t take it in, wonder about it, try to figure it out, or explain why itโ€™s not so. 2. By saying โ€œWhat?โ€ you canโ€™t be accused of interrupting. After all, youโ€™re only asking for clarity and it is the responsibility of the person speaking to speak sensibly and to try again if they havenโ€™t made sense. 3. The person who just spoke to you has an opportunity to think, โ€œNow what did I just say?โ€ and possibly retract the senseless talk and turn it into mindful talk. 4. The person who has attempted to define you finds it impossible to do so. 5. Each time you say โ€œWhat?โ€ the person who defines you has another opportunity to remember what was said and to wake up from the spell.

If you have asked a question and are not hearing an appropriate response, simply repeat your question.โ€]

Fucking wild to be teaching about Rosa Parks at the same time as a trans woman in Florida does an act of civil disobedience to use a women's restroom in the state capitol

As far as I know, she is the first woman arrested bc of this law. The law requires that the trans person be warned to leave the bathroom by a state official, and then if they stay they are guilty of trespassing after a warning.

So like, me, my gf, others just piss and nobody asks or tells, but this young woman sent a statement about the law to over 100 FL lawmakers so they would know she was coming, the cops were ready for her, she brought a reporter and went in anyway and spent the night in a men's jail. She is out on bail, and is hoping this will inspire change of the law. But if found guilty, and the law is upheld as constitutional, then she could spend up to 60 days in a mens county jail.

Seriously, this is extremely Rosa Parks coded. Good looking, religious college girl. It's the whole playbook. She also added this selfie.

I support her and hope this goes as well as it can.

Shoutout to trans women for being the only ones to do something actually politically radical with the recent trend of girlcore catholicism

Her name is Marcy Rheintgen

Marcy Rheintgen!

Work vacuum died. This is the fifth one since I started working here five years ago.

The first one died because my coworker vacuumed up rocks.

The second one died because my coworker vacuumed up rocks.

The third one died because my coworker vacuumed up rocks.

The fourth one died for unknown reasons that involved my coworker vacuuming up rocks.

The fifth one died a few minutes ago and it was a big mystery and my coworker was like โ€œoh I donโ€™t know what happened it just overtaxed for some reasonโ€ so I looked inside the hose andโ€”get thisโ€”it was jammed with rocks.

He keeps buying bigger and more expensive vacuums and complaining about how shitty and faulty the last ones were and every time I suggest something like โ€œwhat if you didnโ€™t vacuum up rocksโ€ heโ€™s like oh no it is the vacuums who are wrong.

hey guys guess what happened again just now

โ€œI donโ€™t learn this in school :(โ€œ

Hey hereโ€™s a question what steps have you taken to increase your education and knowledge since graduating?

12 years is not nearly enough time to teach you everything to know about the world, especially when the starting point is โ€œa says ahโ€ and โ€œ1+1=2โ€ and โ€œrain comes from clouds.โ€

There are people who spend their whole lives in pursuit of knowledge and do not run out of stuff to learn. If you want to be well-informed and knowledgeable as an adult you have to actually make your continued education a priority. The library is free, thousands on online resources are accessible to all, and somewhere near you is an affordable museum or culture center or zoo or art display that can give you information you didnโ€™t know.

I love how when you buy used books from the self help session you run into these sections of almost frantic underlining from whoever read it before you.

(from controlling people, by Patricia Evans, 2002)

whatever creature owned this book before, I am choosing to call them Susan, went on another underlining spree about a hundred pages in

oh Susan.

sorry man im all booked

some people seem to be under the impression that i am taking 6 hours to do a single sudoku. this is not the case. i am doing more sudokus than you could possibly comprehend in those 6 hours.

sometimes when my mom gets drunk she goes into Liberated Women Mode, and one time she was real tipsy and while talking about her friendโ€™s divorce, she very earnestly told me and my sister (both adults) that regardless of preference or relationship, she hoped we would both reach a point in our lives where we were having really good sex with really good people. and my sister said, โ€œi do that now except the good people partโ€ and i said, โ€œsex is real?โ€ and my mom didnโ€™t love either of those answers

ur mom sounds hot is she single

my mom is in fact single, and if you are so determined then itโ€™s not my fault when you find out why

thank you osha thank you shift limits thank you mandatory breaks thank you overtime pay thank you labour laws thank you workers rights thank you unions thank you protesters thank you advocates thank you workers!!!!!!!
