my friend took in a stray and she’s the cutest kitty ever but he named her oil so whenever he sends a picture of her me and my other friends look like we’re roleplaying as the US military

[spooksier]

[spooksier]

in our defense this is oil

My ver. of Kris's darkworld look

my take on Kris in the darkworld, compared my their light world design their eyes aren't visible anymore. Also pretend I drew the heart clasp on the left side, it's meant to be over their actual heart but I can't direction right lmao. ["Is that a skirt?"] [*It's a combat skirt.]

I got 3 blind boxes for the lunchbox. Being his dramatic self, Arlong was the last one to be unboxed lmao

This reminds me of the time that I asked if anyone had resources on the history of Shinto and while nobody had book recs, turns out an actual Temple Maiden followed me on Tumblr and was down to chat.

[dovewithscales]

Tumblr has a startling number of well informed insightful people with names that reference obscure hentai.

[benjaminbadpennywho]

People are downright interesting when they're not being duct taped into one box or another.

[lotharbarbarian]

The world is fucked when historians and linguists and mathematicians and artists of all kinds are forced to work jobs that suck the soul out of them because they didn’t get the right bit of paper from the right building or be born in the wrong place or something

seriously think about how many absolute geniuses spend their free time mastering some obscure realm of knowledge but have to mop up shit for 8 bucks an hour, or pick vegetables for a nickel

[thelastmemeera]

I am, somehow, less interested in the weight and convolutions of Einstein's brain than in the near certainty that people of equal talent have lived and died in cotton fields and sweatshops.

Something like this would be so colossally helpful. I'm sick and tired of trying to research specific clothing from any given culture and being met with either racist stereotypical costumes worn by yt people or ai generated garbage nonsense, and trying to be hyper specific with searches yields fuck all. Like I generally just cannot trust the legitimacy of most search results at this point. It's extremely frustrating. If there are good resources for this then they're buried deep under all the other bullshit, and idk where to start looking.

[toasterthreaddaddy]

[interdimentionalsnapdragon]

i heard somewhere that viagra has some sort of period relief effect.

[cannibalcaprine-deactivated2024]

unfortunately, viagra has a much more obvious, more troubling effect on trans woman

[interdimentionalsnapdragon]

Ah beans, I forgot about penis

[cannibalcaprine-deactivated2024]

[wizardnuke]

not to be a history fucker on main but the whole mystery of the lost colony of roanoke is so fucking funny

[wizardnuke]

governor of the colony: hey I’m gonna go back to england to get more supplies

115 colonists: okay

governor: ends up spending 3 years in england bc of a naval war with spain or some shit

governor: gets back to the colony to find everyone gone

governer: sees the word “croatoan”, the name of a native american tribe, carved into a post

croatoan tribe: has members and children with blonde hair/blue eyes, pale skin

everyone: what could have happened to the colonists of roanoke

[chotimoti]
