Being a pervert is not a crime in and of itself because THINKING CANNOT BE MEASURED OR JUSTLY OUTLAWED.
Wanting to kill someone is not a crime in and of itself because THINKING CANNOT BE MEASURED OR JUSTLY OUTLAWED.
No thought that you can possibly think can be a crime, because THINKING CANNOT BE MEASURED OR JUSTLY OUTLAWED.
The thing I like about Kabru is that he has Main Character Energy leaking from every pore. He was born with unusual eyes. He's the last survivor of a village destroyed by an out-of-control dungeon. He was taught to be an extremely effective manslayer by his hot adoptive elf mom. He can read people like a book. He picks up women effortlessly.
But in the dungeon he's completely out of his depth and all his Sherlock abilities are completely useless against Laios, the Most Autistic Man Alive and the real main character.
I feel a powerfully autistic need to say this again:
THE THEME OF DUNGEON MESHI IS THAT PEOPLE ARE NOT WHAT THEY SEEM.

Can anybody give these old-ass Democrats protest lessons? They're acting like they're still living in pre-2015 politics when the GOP gave a shit and wasn't deranged.
How hard is this? There's probably better suggestions than mine if they actually hired seasoned protestors or behaviorists/psychologists or even the biggest teenage troll they can find on a messageboard.
The Emperor Has No Clothes. So fucking act like it.
vaginal infections, utis, and extreme ph imbalances are no fucking joke. please wash your goddamn hands before you stick your fingers in someone
100%, and in case anyone was unsure - this applies to transfems who have had vaginoplasty/vulvoplasty as well! safer sex and hygiene applies just as much to neogenitals
Neovaginas aren't some artificial thing that are exempt from the health problems of having a vagina!
And trim your fingernails! I KNOW THIS FROM EXPERIENCE.

The strongest arguments against sex workers are one of three things:
1. Moral ick, so entirely irrelevant in a legal sense
2. Issues with capitalistic exploitation, so applicable to literally any job
3. Health concerns
Notice that two out of three of these are solvable by formalizing the rights and protection of sex workers and workers in general? Notice that the third of these is specifically working against solving the other two?
Here’s dril’s candles on a graph for reference.
We waste an absurd amount of money on hyper-militarized, overly aggressive policing. A huge percentage of that is taxpayers paying for the lawsuits that come out of police brutality cases.
all this money spent on police and the two times i’ve gone to them about something they give me a case number and then do shit all. like what is all this money even going towards?
It's all going towards the lawsuits they pay out for police brutality and the overspending on military-grade toys and bloated paychecks for high ranking officers

this website is too fucking easy you make a post about transgender gay sex or the skull and people black out and hit reblog
I love how the human is so supportive of their cat's interests.
DAVE THE CAT IS MY HERO!
my adhd ass when someone says something and expects me to be able to comprehend it the first time
People who just go “ugh nevermind” are the bane of my existence
Reposting again because some people just don’t seem to get the message
There’s also the menacing version where you heard them.

@bunnysmoothie pls post the screenshots.. u know the ones

The real joker is the friends we made along the way
the confetti for a not guilty verdict is actually the funniest fucking thing about ace attorney
it’s like they inherently know their system is fucked to the to the extent that they’ve got the celebration confetti at the ready when they don’t wrongfully incarcerate someone
edgeworth never lost a trial until he faced phoenix wright so the confetti goes off and he’s probably like what the fuck ppfthh pffth phhh that last bit is him spitting the confetti out of his mouth
Need y'all to understand that the Ace Attorney series is based on the Japanese justice system. Japan boasts an incredibly high rate of success for prosecution, more than 99% of cases that go to trial end in a guilty verdict, and most prosecutors stale their professional reputation on never failing to get a guilty verdict. Cases are very selectively picked by prosecutors, and cases that are unlikely to end in a guilty verdict are generally dumped before trial.
A not guilty verdict in trial is basically a fuckin miracle.
Eugenics
I just felt these tags were too important not to add @blacksasuke
The particular segment of medical racism that says ‘Black people are built tougher’ is a great example of why ‘positive’ stereotypes don’t exist.
Adding your tags, prev, cause.. yeah.
Always remember, there is a difference between genetics and eugenics, and that's the specifically the divide between objective and subjective thinking
Genetics has no goals beyond its own understanding, Eugenics has no understanding beyond its goals.
If your apology involves degrading yourself, calling yourself shit or insulting yourself, its not an apology, try again.
Can someone translate this?
Don’t try to guilt people by saying “I’m sorry I fucking suck.” “I’m sorry I’m just the worst and I should die” Because thats not an apology, thats trying to guilt the other person into dropping the subject.
Yup. That’s called Weaponized Remorse. Basically, you’re avoiding accountability by blowing up a big Feelings Bomb at the person you hurt and going “let’s not focus on what I did or what I should do to make amends, let’s focus on how awful I feel about it all, and how you should make me feel better.”
It’s really easy to accidentally learn to apologize like this, especially when you have mental health issues that mean you genuinely feel that way about yourself. You aren’t a bad person if this has become a habit, but you can help other people AND yourself by apologizing differently!
Try to focus on your actions rather than your traits:
E.g. “I’m sorry I keep ghosting you, I’m shit at friendships” –> “I’m sorry I keep ghosting you, I’m really struggling to keep up with my friends right now”
Then, if you can, turn the conversation back to the other person - you’re apologising because their feelings matter to you, so show that.
E.g. “I don’t mean to - our friendship means a lit to me, and I know it must make it seem like I don’t care.”
This gives the other person an opportunity to express their own experience so you can talk it over more if they want to, without skipping ahead to reassuring you that the relationship isn’t broken.
If you read the descriptions above and started feeling guilty, it’s fixable! And if you want, you can even apply your new apology skills to apologising for an old apology style
This is something abusers can instill in their victims, also. Sometimes an abuser wont let up until they know you feel awful, shitty, stupid, worthless. and it becomes a habit to tell someone “im sorry im such a fucking loser i dont deserve etc, etc” so they know that you have paid the emotional toll for what you said or did.
Here’s the kicker, though- normal people dont want you to beat yourself up like that when you apologize. I know it feels like the line between “im sorry, I screwed up and I feel terrible about how I hurt you” and “i’m such a worthless piece of shit, you dont deserve to be around me” seems nearly invisible, but if someone requires you to verbally self-flagellate in order for a fight to be over, you really need to step back and take a look at the relationship between you two.
^^^^ great addition. Sometimes weaponized remorse is manipulative, sometimes it’s a survival strategy. Never good or healthy, but worth acknowledging.
WHOA THERE COWBOY! Yes, this can be a tactic by manipulative people, but it can also be an INVOLUNTARY response by those who have been abused or who are impacted by separation anxiety.
Self harm in the form of actually injuring oneself physically is the familiar part, but people who are self destructive in response to abuse and fear also attack themselves verbally. It's hugely important that we recognize that a LOT of the behaviors used by abusive people are also reflexive of those who have suffered abuse.
Pay attention, is the action something that regularly repeats? Is it specifically in response to criticism or does it happen when the person perceives themselves in error when others are indifferent to the issue? Does the behavior go away when the person gets what they want or is it something they dwell on even when forgiveness is offered? Does this behavior combine with other abusive actions (examples: demeaning or belittling others, physical aggression, defensiveness in the face of minor criticism, deflection, etc.)?
There's a fine line behaviourally between abuser and victim here. Don't do the abusers job for them and isolate a victim for having negative self-image.
Potatoes have gotten less expensive.
This should be very very alarming to everyone.
We grow something like three times as many potatoes as will sell in this country. We do this intentionally (with several staple crops) so that if something goes critically wrong in our food supply (like a blight or bad weather destroying other crops) we can just eat potatoes instead. Every grocery store I've been to lately has an overabundance of potatoes and for a lower price.
This means that our food systems think we're in the middle of an emergency, and that started with Trump announcing his tariffs.
