Attempting to locate a new Greek restaraunt using my gyroscope

counter to all the new years resolutioner diet bullshit, might I recommend unlearning your fatphobia with some light reading:

fearing the black body: the racial origins of fat phobia by sabrina strings

what we don't talk about when we talk about fat by aubrey gordon

the belly of the beast: the politics of anti-fatness as anti-blackness by da’shaun harrison

(there are many many more books I can list for those interested & your library probably has all of these)

So wait are livestock guardian dogs to their flocks like… Clark Kent among the residents of Smallville? He’s been here since he was a baby, we all know him, and he’s… generally one-of-us shaped, uh, approximately. And then when something goes wrong he suddenly leaps into action and does some terrifying impossible shit none of us could do. And then comes back home and settles in like nothing happened and he’s one of us again.

Hmm.

HMMMMMMMMMMMMMM.

Actual answer: the sheep know the dogs are not sheep, and they also know the dog is protecting them and take their cues from the dog about whether they need to run for the barn or can just ignore anything scary that approaches.

However, a friend once had an extremely premature orphan lamb born in December who had to live in the house for a couple of months with leg braces and all that, who due to spending her lambhood with dogs instead of sheep came out of the whole experience convinced she was a livestock guardian dog! She would patrol the perimeter of the fields every evening with the actual dog, stand watch in the barn door at night like the dog, and was more than willing to throw down if she saw something scary coming towards the flock the way the guard dog did. Tragically orphaned lamb did a convincing job at being a guard dog without actually having any of the biological advantages a dog has over a sheep.

Which I suppose made her Sheep Batman.

1) any stretching is better than no stretching

2) any vegetable is better than no vegetable

3) statistically you will never be the worst person at anything, there is always someone in the world who is worse at stuff than you are

4) if you actually are the worst person in the entire world, the scientific curiosity of this fact alone would make it worthwhile to continue

thank god vampirism is a flexible metaphor

quietwingsinthesky

it’s about being queer it’s about surviving assault it’s about alienation and most of all it’s about how everyone who loved you before might not be able to even look at you now, no matter how many times you try to explain that you didn’t ask to die and you didn’t ask for that death to leave you only half-eaten when it got bored of you.

This is without even mentioning the broader metaphorical implications of disease and contagion; foreign invasion; colonial or imperial violence; interpersonal abuse; generational trauma; religious trauma; violent cultural assimilation; repressed or suppressed desire; the fear of no longer being able to recognise or relate to someone you love; and on and on and on.

Vampirism is a flexible metaphor that reflects the anxieties and desires of its age and its authors, and I love that for it!

"baby names" is a real misnomer because they're often permanent

aheartofdawn

there's three rules of naming babies:

what do the initials spell? (I was *this close* to being DMV)

what are the the different abbreviations/contractions/etc? (Michael Hunt, William Stroker, Richard Small, etc)

the name that sounds cute on your little gurgling bundle of joy will still be the one they have when they are an adult filling out a job application. Remember that.

Optional Bonus: if your baby will ever have a job one day, ensure that their email address (if in the standard First Initial, Last Name format) will not be something embarrassing.

Sincerely, someone who had to email an S. Lutz (slutz).

and not to sound like a conspiracy theorist but another reason I hate the return of 2000’s th*nspo shit is bc starving does make women frail and has longer term consequences like early osteoporosis, brittle bones/teeth, insomnia, ect. Your muscles will start eating themselves. It also makes you extremely emotional and severely lowers your capacity for critical thinking not bc you’re a girl but because your brain isn’t getting any fucking nutrients so idk I just feel like its very convenient that every time there’s an uptick in fascist rhetoric and women’s rights are being stripped suddenly it’s peak fashion for women to be starving, weak, and exhausted

Please remember to eat. Your body literally contains you. Please take care of it. Fuel it properly. Like if you're making sure the electronics in your life are charged, then make sure your body is too.

you're an antique rover abandoned by the galactic empire who originally deployed you to a remote moon but now a princess from an opposing polity is stranded here too so to bound you show her old cave art you discovered in the moon's lava tubes....

People are unfazed if you hate women but if you dislike dogs they assume you're a bad person

lakemojave

Tumblr users will read a post complaining about normalized misogyny and hyperfocus on your claim that it's ok to dislike dogs
