Why does your post have lingerie on
God forbid a bitch be feeling herself while mentally ill in this economy 😢
personally I am of the opinion that vegans who are like “the way our food system currently works under capitalism on a large scale is exceptionally cruel to all animals including humans and is not sustainable, so I’m doing what I can to make the most ethical choices available to me about what I eat and encourage others to do the same” are generally very reasonable people who I agree with in spades. but vegans who seem to think human beings are not themselves animals who are ultimately also part of the food chain but instead some kind of other paternalistic higher entity that can never engage in ethical and sustainable hunting practices (and especially the fringe I’ve seen who think other carnivorous animal predators are also evil and need to be eliminated) are people I regard as foolish at best if not actively anti-indigenous and racist
i'm sorry but every post i see where someone differentiates between good and bad vegans i'm like...where have you met that person. are you sure there are multiple. because none of the vegans i know are the latter??????
so I’m native and yes I have met multiple vegans who have said weird nonsensical anti-Indigenous things to me. if I hadn’t had this experience, I wouldn’t be posting about it. generally when I talk about the racism I’ve encountered in my life, I do not have to make up a guy to do so. they’re out there. good for you that you haven’t encountered any. must be nice.

I saw this video about a doctor who performed an MRI on a 5 year old and discovered she essentially had “brain damage” from excessive iPad use, as the white matter in her brain couldn’t form properly due to an understimulated environment.
Hmm it’s almost like there’s supposed to be adult figures responsible for monitoring her screen time and making sure she develops properly… certainly this isn’t the result of neglect at the hands of her parents…
“This 5 year old is brain damaged by excessive iPad use”
Translation: This 5 year old is developmentally impaired by neglectful parents who used an iPad as a stand-in for social and environmental stimulation / interaction for hours at a time during critical early stages of child development. The iPad is the cop-out.
“Children don’t have the strength to hold pencils anymore because they only use screens.”
Translation: Parents aren’t making the conscious effort to help their children develop necessary skills and letting iPads raise them.
When are people going to realize the iPads and whatnot are the instruments through which the neglect is happening through and not the cause? How the fuck do you let your child have such a severe lack of physical strength in their hands that they can’t hold a pencil properly?
People will see a study suggesting children with higher screen times have poorer or negative developmental outcomes and immediately say it’s the screens causing this, and not the more likely fact that higher screen time = less engagement time with their environment, physical exercise, parents, family, and their peers, all of which are NECESSARY for a healthy upbringing as a social species.
It’s like saying a dog who was kept in a cage all its life and left with atrophied muscles was damaged by the cage, and not by the fact its owners were too lazy to play or walk their dog in order for its muscles to build properly. The cage is the instrument of neglect and the owners are the perpetrators, in the same way parents are the perpetrators and weaponizing screen time as an excuse and painting themselves as helpless bystanders.
"screen time screen time screen time screeeeEEEEEEEE" before the smartphone, kids were so bored they'd play with explosives, vandalize local infrastructure and harass old people for entertainment.
fund libraries. fund makerspaces. fund youth sports. enable kids to actually go places without having to ask someone to drive them everywhere. excessive reliance on digital spaces is a symptom of having nothing else to do.
We need third spaces that do not require money.
We also need to allow children and esp teenage children to exist in public without seeing that as threatening or criminal. Loitering is a fake crime. Teens making noise by riding bikes or skateboarding outside is not a crime. People sitting on their front stoops hanging out IS NOT A FUCKING CRIME. Someone sleeping in a park IS NOT A FUCKING CRIME. Some kids fooling around in the bushes IS NOT A FUCKING CRIME. Black and brown kids EXISTING OUTSIDE IS NOT A FUCKING CRIME.
PEOPLE EXISTING IN PUBLIC IS NOT A FUCKING CRIME.
It's called the Global Justice Report, it is here. This is an actionable plan which can be sent to legislators and demanded of political parties. We could save the world within our lifetimes.
It has always been possible. It is still possible.
that is the face of a man worried he will be next
Good news, he was not next! In fact, she accepted him as her mate, he learned the crane mating dance and now every year, he artificially inseminates her with crane semen to expand the very endangered crane population. True story.
Sorry, he WHAT? Imagine being this man's boss and having to sit him down like. Listen. Brian. We need you to fuck the bird. You have to act like you're excited about it.
crane husband.....
this is the diametric opposite of all those awful swan wife stories and i love it.
(WalWaPo makes you jump through like three separate hoops before you can read the article, so I will share some of the highlights:
Walnut was born in a species-recovery breeding program in the 1980′s. The program had crane chicks hand-raised by human volunteers, and at that time they did not fully understand the measures necessary make sure that the chicks do not imprint on humans and retain their identity as cranes.
As a result, her keepers believe, Walnut does not recognize other cranes as members of her own species.
It has not been proven that Walnut killed her previous suitors; however, there is a persistent rumor in the white-naped-crane-conservation community that she did.
Because this species is highly endangered, and the gene pool of the captive population is small, it’s pretty important for the survival of her species that Walnut A) mate, and B) not kill a bunch of other cranes.
The actual name of the keeper is Chris Crowe.
They both arrived at the Smithsonian Conservation Biology Institute in 2004.
Walnut immediately began paying special attention to Chris--and ignoring the eligible male crane in a nearby enclosure.
Walnut initiated their courtship, performing the opening moves of a mating dance.
Chris realized that if he reciprocated the mating dance, it might be possible to artificially inseminate Walnut with her participation and consent. (The process normally involves restraining the bird.)
It worked!
Chris and Walnut have had five children, who were raised by other crane couples at the facility--sometimes the biological dad and his mate--both because it’s unclear whether Walnut would accept the chicks as her own, and because Chris is not equipped to be a Crane Dad.
However, the Institute provides her with artificial eggs to sit on, and Chris takes his turn looking after them. (This would not work with real eggs because he can’t sit on them properly, but Walnut seems to feel that he is on the job if he just stands over them.)
Chris accepts that he is pretty much married to this bird. White-naped cranes live to be about 60, and they mate for life, so he knows he can’t retire while Walnut is alive. (At the time of the article, Walnut was 36, and Chris 42.)
Legit cannot pick the funniest part of this
she has not been PROVEN to have killed her exes, but there is a PERSISTENT RUMOR (really officers she's simply DEVASTATED, she sobs, wearing a new feather boa unfortunately resembling her most recent deceased husband)
His name is Chris CROWE. (Mrs. Walnut Crane-Crowe?)
the mental images of a whole human man learning and performing the crane mating dance, and "sitting" on artificial eggs so she thinks he's performing his duties as a husband and father (and apparently OBJECTS if he does not?)
"chris, buddy, you gotta marry the possibly-murderous crane lady for the GOOD OF THE SPECIES." (alternately: "chris, my man! good news! we found you a very interested lady! She's 36, she's very spirited and independent, she holds a very important and rare status in her society! ...Is there a downside? WELL...")
chris sits any potential human partners down, like "my love, you must understand before we wed,,, i am already... Attached" (camera drifts wistfully to the above photo) "Lady Walnut and I have an,, Understanding... the relationship is open, but very committed"
just had to explain this post to my father bc he thought my stifled laughter was a signal of illness.
well done, everyone, good game. hit the showers.
Not only is he 'married' to walnut, this has apparently happened SEVERAL times, so he has MULTIPLE crane wives, none of which know about any of his other crane wives. This man is, for some unknown reason, irresistible to cranes
the “this content has been removed for violating Tumblr’s Community Guidelines” notice really adds a lot of flavor to this post and somehow makes it MORE obscene than whatever that actually was
World Heritage Post
I regret being the bearer of bad news, but I thought it should be shared that Walnut passed away in January of this year (2024). There's a lot of mixed info about the lifespan of cranes (due to people misunderstanding what a median is...) but the average for most species I know of is 20-30 years (in the wild if nothing eats them/they don't die young), and 30-45 in captivity, with the oldest known white-naped crane having loved to be 46. Given that she was 42, this old gal did good, and I'm certain she will be missed by folks here.
Fly on forever Walnut Crane-Crowe

Wordle is running out of words. Only 2,000 five letter words remain. When that supply is exhausted the Creation shall begin. One day the word will be ZHURM, and all shall get it, and all shall understand it to mean "an ache from suddenly remembering a long-ago friend, who meant something to you once, but whose face you can no longer conjure". The next day the word shall be JOROL, and all will get it, and all will know it means "the melancholy confusion of passing by somewhere where you once could have died". The next day it will be GREFT, and all will understand it to be a small brown bird with white streaks found only in South America, and suddenly, it will appear, in the shrubs of the Atacama desert, in the streets of São Paulo, and all will know that it once was not there, but now, will always be

Sooome thoughts about Gourmand.
I like to think of Gourmand as an exception. Ordinary Slugcats don't eat large creatures; their carnivorous diet is limited to centipedes and flies. It seems to me that their bodies aren't built to properly digest larger creatures. I consider Hunter, Artificer, and Spearmaster to be true predators, and each of them is modified (Artificer's nature is unclear, but I believe it's a modification. or, at the very least, a distinct subspecies). Leaving Spearmaster aside, large creatures restore twice as many hunger pips for Hunter and Artificer as they do for Gourmand. By the time of campaign, he is in late adulthood and really experienced (he is the leader of an entire colony, after all) and I imagine his diet developed differently from that of typical Slugcats. I picture Gourmand loving to eat from the time he was a pup; when the older Slugcats rationed and shared resources equally among everyone, Gourmand would go off to forage for himself. Eventually, his curiosity led him to start eating larger prey, even though it was harder to digest (largely for the sake of variety in flavor). The stakes rose gradually, so he didn't jump straight to lizards; he only started hunting them once he was a young adult. That’s why he’s so fat.
(I made this vid a while ago and didn't finish it—and I never will, because I’d die if I tried to work on it for real. But I think it got the idea across)
Rain World:
The game where you can steal braincells from a god and either eat them or give them as a gift to his crippled naked sister who only has five braincells
The game where you can play as an aquatic sewer rat and perform a heart transplant on a fifteen thousand foot cancer patient
The game where you can only learn the lore by either giving shiny balls to a disabled lady or secretly tapping into radio broadcasts whilst giving a shiny ball to the disabled lady’s brother
The game where you can go from finding food and looking for your family to meeting eldritch horrors, discovering the secrets of the void and shedding your physical form all because an angry calculator gave you a white square and told you to kill yourself
The game where you can play as a fluffy green rat, meet ancient remnants of a bygone age, attain true enlightenment and kill everything by T-posing, then go to hell and get kicked out by a worm
the highest recorded wet bulb temperatures in the world occur in india, jsyk. in odisha, they’ve hit 34.6 degrees celsius. the human survivability limit is 35 degrees celsius but the body faces significant risks, potentially fatal risks, even at 30 degrees as it starts failing to cool itself, like i’m talking organ failure levels of risk. climate change isn’t coming to peak, it’s been in the global south where you can’t see it or feel it.
imagine temperatures that high and humidity as high as 75%—you make more heat than you can ever cool. your sweat cannot evaporate fast enough. you literally boil alive. heat deaths in india are underreported and they already hit the thousands. there is no plan, for a nation of almost 2 billion people. no plan. nothing.
What am I supposed to get from this, aside from a general feeling of pity towards the suffering?
Is it "Indians are acting very irresponsibly regarding climate change"? or is it "With a billion and a half of them in the same system they can't effectively work together to solve a shared problem"?
I refuse to believe they don't possess the knowledge and the manpower to craft a real response to these challenges so it must be that the will is not there.
The Nation of India should dissolve if it's too large and complex to be efficiently and honestly administrated.
With public health issues this serious being ignored, Indians would clearly be better served by smaller polities with more limited scope, and better incentives to serve the public (fear preferably), as it's quite obvious that the current state apparatus is not interested in doing so ('cos it's not scared).
jeez dude calm down are people not allowed to make posts anymore
Why would you assume I was excited? Are people not allowed to respond to posts anymore?
I think it's a serious problem that Indian people need to address even at the cost of some political unrest and major investment of time and resources and I said so.
Is that wrong somehow?
yes my friend it IS wrong.
it's weird that nowhere in the post were you specifically addressed, but you clearly took it to heart enough to type out that long-ass response. you're allowed to respond, but you clearly took this post as a personal affront and diverted it to make it about what YOU were supposed to do.
im unsure if you know this but people make posts about how this country is on fire AND theyre allowed to raise awareness about it especially to a wider western audience that likely doesnt know about it due to anglocentrism. that was the point of the previous poster. theyre allowed to make posts. especially since a HUGE part of the acceleration of the problem is the west's exploitation of indian resources and the fact that they offload their shit in india and the fact that a majority of india lies below the poverty line and is still dealing with the after-effects of colonization. the original post was nice enough to not say it, but i will! yes, the west IS responsible for the climate situation in india!
why havent indians fixed it yet? why havent usamericans and canadians fixed every problem in their country? why does the imperial core still have flaws? why havent westerners fixed it yet, why are they and their governments stupid? they have access to a lot of things that us third worlders dont have... so why havent they locked in yet? i am forced to assume they just like living in subpar conditions while their government exploits underprivileged countries. you are responsible for every single one of your country's flaws! you heard that right!
oh wait, i forgot. this over-generalization and lumping everyone into a hivemind is only acceptable for us third world browns, isnt it? it's not like we're individuals.
im not gonna pretend that explaining something to a person determined to miss the point is going to go anywhere, and if you continue being stupid i am going to advise you to block me beforehand. i refuse to let this post be derailed by your fragile ego so here's some articles about heatwaves in india and some ways YOU, yes YOU person reading this with money to spare, can help!
South Asia is witnessing scorching heat waves, with temperatures in Bangladesh, Pakistan, and India regularly surpassing 110 degrees Fahrenh
Modi denied climate change for years. Now, as heat deaths mount, his government offers branding instead of protection.
