People are like “these animals have exoskeletons and these ones have endoskeletons” but no. It’s all exoskeletons, your exoskeleton is protecting your bone marrow which is where your soul (which is you) is. The rest of the stuff is extraneous decoration that Big Pharma wants you to think is important/

[derinthescarletpescatarian]

Why do you think there’s so few ghosts around? Why are most ghosts people who died violently? You gotta crack the bones to let the soul out. Most souls are trapped alone in the dark and silent ground (or teaching hospitals) for hundreds or thousands of years until the bones eventually start to break. People who are cremated get their whole soul released and it can reincarnate. But if someone dies violently then maybe only a couple of their bones are cracked and a little scrap of the soul escapes but it’s incomplete and confused. Can’t figure out how to leave, gets obsessed with its own circumstances, repeats actions, CANNOT be reasoned with. PROOF that the soul is in the marrow.

See I know what I’m talking about.

Sin is stored in the teeth btw which is why young children are innocent (they’ll get a do-over with replacement teeth) and the elderly are shameless (once you have no teeth to remember your sins, you have nothing to fear).

It takes surprisingly little alcohol to completely remove my filter and make me just post any old random thought actually. I can’t get plastered because right after “tipsy” is “I must sleep immediately”

oh hey rember that post a while ago about how when stores ask for your donation, they arent actually donating the money you give because theyve already made the donation and are just looking to get reimbursed through customers? looks like theyre finally getting in hot water for that deceptive practice

“In an experiment revealing the importance of having friendships, social psychologists have found that perceptions of task difficulty are significantly shaped by the proximity of a friend. In their experimental design, the researchers asked college students to stand at the base of a hill while carrying a weighted backpack and to estimate the steepness of a hill. Some participants stood next to close friends whom they had known a long time, some stood next to friends they had not known for long, and the rest stood alone during the exercise. The students who stood with friends gave significantly lower estimates of the steepness of the hill than those who stood alone. Furthermore, the longer the close friends had known each other, the less steep the hill appeared to the participants involved in the study. In other words, the world looks less difficult when standing next to a close friend.”

— my new favorite psychological study, done by Schnall, Harber, Stefanucci, and Proffitt and published in the Journal of Experimental Social Psychology.

PSA for new tumblr users!

This place is a message... and part of a system of messages... pay attention to it!

Sending this message was important to us. We considered ourselves to be a powerful culture.

This place is not a place of honor... no highly esteemed deed is commemorated here... nothing valued is here.

What is here was dangerous and repulsive to us. This message is a warning about danger.

The danger is in a particular location... it increases towards a center... the center of danger is here... of a particular size and shape, and below us.

The danger is still present, in your time, as it was in ours.

The danger is to the body, and it can kill.

The form of the danger is an emanation of energy.

The danger is unleashed only if you substantially disturb this place physically. This place is best shunned and left uninhabited.

the idea of catching covid should be horrifying to people. we're only 2+ years into this pandemic and are already seeing long term effects like cognitive decline, increased risk of heart attack and stroke, immunity depletion and dozens more health consequences of having even a "mild" case of it. we already know from SARS-1 that many who had it continue to suffer long term sequelae nearly 2 decades after their infection. we know of many other horrible long term consequences of other viruses that can appear decades after the initial infection [e.g. shingles from varicella zoster virus (chicken pox), cervical and oropharyngeal cancers from HPV, multiple sclerosis from epstein barr virus (glandular fever) + many more] and yet people are being completely blasé about getting their 3rd, 4th, 5th+ infection. we are going to look back at our current minimisation of the dangers of covid with absolute horror in the future when a decent amount of the population will be suffering from the long term effects of this absolutely piss poor management of a global pandemic

[humandisastersquad]

hey. you know polio? yeah, that disease that we now mainly associate with permanent paralysis and people needing iron lungs just so they can breathe??

do you know the actual percentage of cases that result in this horrible outcome?? it's 0.5%. 1 in 200. of those, 5-10% die from asphyxiation, that's 1-2 in 4000. chump change compared to covid's (average) 1-2% mortality rate. and long covid's 5-20% incidence rate.

and yet, for a disease that for a vast majority of people results in symptoms akin to a mild flu, or are even asymptomatic, the world came together and coordinated a mass global vaccination and education effort that has nearly eradicated the virus. because nobody deserves to be exposed to that risk when there are effective ways to prevent it.

but now have let loose and are completely downplaying the dangers of a far more virulent and infectious disease that has killed over 6.5 million people (and that's just the ones that have been officially reported) and ruined the health of millions more. this pandemic has been a complete and utter public health failure and we are only at the beginning of the consequences of mass covid infection

[mesopelagically]

long covid numbers may be upwards of 30%, including among asymptomatic infections, but yeah

[anexperimentallife]

I nearly died twice from COVID, despite all my precautions, spent a month on an oxygen machine, required surgery for a persistent secondary infection, and now have heart damage, neurological damage (as if I didn't have enough already), eye damage from blood clots, and other long covid symptoms--some or all of which may be permanent even though I'm in treatment. The eye damage and neurological event didn't happen until after I was "recovered."

Yeah, this shit can hit even after you THINK it's over. Take it seriously, folks.

The percentage of people with effects like mine may be low, but you do NOT want to find out the hard way that you're one of us.

[o-v-e-r-w-h-e-l-m-e-d]

I recently learnt that executive dysfunction can be broken down into two main categories: anxiety that your attempt won’t be satisfactory, or confusion about where to start or how to break it down into steps. As much as we feel bad about it, it’s extremely important to remember that it is NOT laziness and we in fact shouldn’t feel bad.

hey reblog this instead

[catgirlapologist]

isn't it insane though how schizophrenic people are viewed as violent and dangerous by the majority of society when in reality schizophrenic people are nearly 14 times more likely to be on the receiving end of violence than to be the perpetrators...

[catgirlapologist]

schizophrenic person: makes a post trying to raise awareness about the disproportionate abuse and harmful stereotypes schizophrenic people face

yall: "yeah im not gonna reblog this they used the word ins*ne which is so problematic ://"

[truth-spatter]

What the fuck happens that changes these stats to such a massive degree?

[catgirlapologist]

1) schizophrenia hardly ever causes people to be violent so schizophrenic people aren’t more likely to be violent than anyone else

2) schizophrenic people’s autonomy is often taken away from them because of their schizophrenia. because the authorities and mental healthcare providers often automatically assume schizophrenic people to be violent, they’re more likely to immediately react to schizophrenic people's symptoms with violence, without even knowing for sure said schizophrenic person was going to be violent. all of this causes schizophrenic people to be more likely of being victims of violence and abuse. schizophrenic people also have a harder time getting out of abusive households because of the risk of their autonomy being taken away. if a schizophrenic person’s relative or partner is abusive, often the schizophrenic person has no way out of the situation, both because our disconnect from reality can result in us being easier to manipulate, and because the system is built in a way that it takes away our autonomy because of our condition.

[catgirlapologist]

also schizophrenic people and psychotic people in general, please do a lot of research before picking a provider for your own sake, and if they try to treat your psychosis in a way that you think is harmful then don’t hesitate to switch providers. your safety and wellbeing should be a priority over everything else.

[catgirlapologist]

can y'all please reblog this version instead

I was interested to know whether there had been any noticeable uptick in searches for “the cask of amontillado” since this meme began and while there has, it’s the exact same uptick which has occurred every fall in recent memory as high school teachers have geared up for their spooky october literature units
