Now Hotter By 1 Degree

Hello! My name is cat!!

[batou]

some of u should have an OnlyClowns account

[themadcapmathematician]

what the fuck do you think a tumblr is

[kaijuno]

[kittykattaffy]

Yeah, that doesn't prevent pregnancy.

[kaijuno]

Dfgajagakala it’s so you don’t get a UTI 😂

[jabberwockypie]

*facepalm* So, given that sex ed in the US is a tire fire:

Vagina-having people have a shorter urethra, which means we’re more prone to UTIs because the bacteria doesn’t have to travel as far to get up into your bladder and cause a problem.

Which means if you’re exposing your bits to bacteria (as with sex), peeing will flush out bacteria in the urethra. (Urine isn’t actually sterile - that’s a myth - but you’re *supposed to* have a little bit of bacteria - that’s how bodies work. But it still flushes things out that shouldn’t be there.)

Oh! You should ALSO pee after you masturbate, especially if it involves penetration with fingers/toys/etc

[jabberwockypie]

So I’ve blocked like five transphobes on this post, which I feel should have been relatively uncontroversial.

If you’re one of the people saying “You meant ‘women’”, fuck you. I meant “people who have a vagina, regardless of their gender or lack thereof”, and you can go fuck yourself with a cactus.

And you should pee afterward, so you don’t get a UTI.

[silveryoasis]

Lmao! That last line! 😂

[thotsoflore]

Keep this in mind if you recently started having sex again after vaginoplasty. It's a super important habit to get into. Especially if you weren't super careful about it preop.

[official-megumin]

I am pretty sure that you should pee after sex regardless of what kind of genitals you have.

If you can ejaculate it helps flush out semen which could also cause bacterial buildup.

It wasn't clear from the original post or additions that it's a good practice for everyone, so I wanted to add that

[anotheraccountonthisapp]

Everyone should piss. Now. No exceptions.

[dykepuffs]

Plus, having a shortened urethra doesn't necessarily mean you have a vagina! Plenty of people with a urethral reroute that places their surgically-created meatus behind the balls, or anyone with an hypospadias that results in it being somewhere other than near the end of their glans, or anyone who had penectomy or partial penectomy which leaves the end of their urethra close to the pubis, or anyone who had colpectomy without urethral lengthening so their urethra is just alone on the surface, or metoidioplasty with UL so their urethra is longer but not much longer and also often has scar tissue that can hold pockets of bacteria...

But generally just yeah, everyone, go piss girl.

[once-a-polecat]

Also, if you are a person with a short urethra and don't have a lot of estrogen, because you're post-menopausal, have had your ovaries removed or are a trans person on testosterone you have a higher risk of so-called "genitourinary syndrome of menopause." While this is frequently lumped under the term "vaginal atrophy" it can also cause changes to the lower urinary tract that can make UTIs more likely.

An update for users in Brazil and the United Kingdom

To continue our commitment to user safety and to comply with local laws, we will start using age groups to determine access to certain experiences.

People in Brazil or in the UK, who are 18 or older, will soon need to verify their age to change content label settings and view mature-labeled content. Until then, the settings will be locked to hide.

As a reminder, verification is handled by our age-assurance partner, k-ID. Tumblr won't have access to the information you submit, just the final age-verification result. Documents are deleted after confirmation, and facial scan data never leaves your device. 

Questions? Contact Tumblr support or learn more about these changes here.

Random thing for people to consider is that since Laika is the saint of one way trips should Felicette be known as the saint of safe landings since she did make it back to the ground safely

[i-prefer-the-fictional-world]

People on the internet say Chappell Roan is evil. I look into it, it turns out be bullshit. A few days later people again say Chappell Roan to s evil. I look into it and again it turns out to be bullshit. A few days later people are back at claiming Chappell is evil and this time they claim they say there is a pattern of behavior. But it's the same bullshit from previous times. And we learn nothing from this and the cycle continues.

What video game will you defend forever?

Feed your dashboard by answering my question, blogger.

Oh shit uhhhh

Oblivion.

Idk what criticism exists for the game, other than that weird take that it’s “woke” because the statues are fully clothed.

They’re statues dawg. Why are we focused on what statues wear?

99% of "mysterious disappearances" esp of people in their 20s who start acting weird for 48 hours and then vanish are not mysterious, thats just when a lot of reality-obliterating mental illness tends to kick in and it's pretty easy to get a short circuit in your brain that makes you go family guy death pose in joshua tree national park. it's not any less tragic, it's just a documented phenomenon and not particularly predictable. its a big reason the medical advice is for people with a family history of schizophrenia to completely avoid weed and psychedelics. "people just go crazy sometimes" is a principle of human health that used to be a lot more accepted prior to the american midcentury and to a certain extent thats a healthier way to conceptualize and prepare for the risk, as opposed to the modern assertion that anyone acting weird is dangerous and broken forever.

[3liza]

you should have a rough outline of a plan for if any of your loved ones experiences psychosis, it really does happen a lot. UTIs can cause psychosis. taking drugs, even safe drugs, or prescription drugs, can cause psychosis. i was once prescribed a heavy regimen of vitamin D because i was deficient, but the doctor never told me to stop taking it, so i moved to california, stopped being deficient, and developed vitamin d toxicity with downstream hyperparathyroidism which triggered significant hypomania that was undetected and uncontrolled for yeeeeeeears. i just slowly got Weird and started making impulsive decisions based on slightly out-of-gamut beliefs. i drove cross country by myself to have a love affair. the love affair was real, the series of decisions leading to burning down my life in pursuit of it were based on not great brain function however. etc. you see what i mean. churchill mentioned depression being the "black dog who stalks us" (one reason for Churchgrim's multi-referential name) but theres another, stealthier dog called Insanity and it's closer to some people than others but man it sneaks up on you. every time i see one of those "guy gets weird and drives into the wilderness forever" missing persons stories i think "yeah i could totally pull that off"

Since watering means giving something water but milking means extracting milk from something that must means that water's default is to give but milk's default is to take. So water must be inherently kind while milk is cruel

[feed-the-roses]

[silvysartfulness]

The supreme good is like water, which nourishes all things without trying to. It flows content through the low places that people disdain.

Thus, it is like the Dao.

-Lao Tzu, 4th century BC

Milk is cruel.

jerrod how long did it take you to photoshop all that bread

Did it the lazy easy way: 

It may be less than stellar, but I have a strict personal rule: “don’t put longer than 30 minutes’ effort into a fetish joke”. The second you hit 30:01, the exposure becomes lethal and the fetish becomes unironic.

FETISH?????????

Whitch part is the fetish? Bread or Pokémon?

Get rid of your fucking Ring cameras holy shit. That was one of the most chilling ads I’ve ever seen

[creekfiend]

😰😰😰😰😰

[knitmeapony]

[outlaw-monarch]

For anyone confused about why this "sweet ad" is actually evil:

ring is passing the surveillance they collect to ice

ring is using these ID features to search for/identify people that ice wants to deport/kidnap/disappear, & using it to spy on Americans in general.

This ad is the company's gross & sneaky attempt to appeal to humans' kindness [ I'll be helping people find their pets!" ]

They are trying to trick more people into buying this tool that will be used as surveillance on people living in the USA

AND~!!!

also probably trying to trick people into turning on features/settings that will make it easier for them to pass information to ice and other hostile governmental authorities
