It really says something that a lot of monogamous people consider polyamorous and aromantic to be "opposites" but every polyam person I know took one look at aromantics and said "they're just like me for real"
Poly folks x aro folks in the sense that "alloromantic heterosexual monogamous people view love and sex as an entirely different entity than me, and that makes life kinda strange"

So fun fact from when I worked on multiple reality shows, names redacted for NDA purposes.
Gay people are INCREDIBLY ANNOYING for production when they are on reality shows cause they always do shit like this. Reality shows pick their cast specifically for people who will create drama, so it tracks that bringing in some gay people (in the era that I worked, 2013-2018, this was considered to be new and interesting) would diversify people enough to create some conflict. To a degree, this was true.
But what actually happened was that the gay person, or worse, people, would end up estranged from the other people because Straight People Who Are Fucking Nuts in a way that would be ideal for a reality show are very different from Gay People Who Are Fucking Nuts.
There's one particular instance I remember in which our Gay Person tm wasn't getting into drama and no one could figure out why. Any time anything happened it would just defuse almost instantly. Eventually we prodded during a solo interview and one of the guys said something along the lines of "Mayn gay marriage just got legalized n shit if I yell at this guy I'm being a homophobe". This meant that our gay was COASTING along in this reality show cause no one would vote him out!!
But you know what the PINNACLE of this was?
DATING SHOWS.
One... Very popular dating show I worked on (you know the one) has an unofficial, unwritten rule: you can only have 1 queer woman in the cast of ladies. This is because for a solid few years, if ever there were two bisexual women in the show, they would ALWAYS abandon the man and run off together instead. You can't have contestants saying shit like "this guy has no personality and sucks ass. I prefer this girl I met who actually listens to me". Like this was an actual epidemic in the casting. It happened over and over for YEARS and they couldn't find a way to stop it without literally separating the women from each other, which obviously wouldn't be good for the show. They also couldn't show this was happening because that. Uh. Would be pretty bad to reveal to audiences.
Eventually they just decided to subtly prod and see if women who were going on the show were gay and then avoid having two on the same season at the same time. To my knowledge they still do it this way.
Anyways the summary is that gay people are fucking crazy in a way that heterosexual tv just does not know how to handle
I love(hate) how their first solution was to be blatantly biphobic
instead of getting men that don't suck
Oh thanks but what the fuck does any of that mean
Iâve seen quite a few of these in my time, but this one takes the cake.
This is fucking killing me
Golp: a roundel purpure.
Repeat this to yourself until it begins to have meaning
Okay then since some of you need to be reminded of this:
Roundels are circles in heraldry. They are named according to their color, which also has its own lingo. Letâs meet them!
Bezant: roundel or (gold) đĄ
Plate: roundel argent (silver) âŞď¸
Torteau: roundel gules (red) đ´
Pomme: roundel vert (green) đ˘
Hurt: roundel azure (blue) đľ
Golp: roundel purpure (purple) đŁ
Pellet: roundel sable (black) âŤď¸
If your field is strewn with roundels, you can describe it appropriately as being bezanty, hurty, golpy, and so on.

when i was a kid my parents bought me an inflatable doll of the Scream by Edvard Munch (??) that was significantly taller than i was at the time and i used to slow-dance with it and pretend it was my boyfriend. It had its hands attached to its head obviously so it felt like he was always a bit horrified to be forced to dance with me

Beep boop! I look for accidental haiku posts. Sometimes I mess up.
just saw a pigeon doing the puffed up courtship dance thing to another pigeon, and as he was strutting around he suddenly stopped for a split second to do a very brief preen-peck at his own side, then returned to the strutting around. and i surprised myself by instantly losing respect for the male pigeon in that moment, like come on man i appreciate you had an itch or whatever but how is she supposed to feel special when you're getting distracted by bullshit like that? which on reflection i don't endorse, i mean those are pretty harsh dating norms i'm imposing on these pigeons, from a total outsider perspective, for no reason. probably not all girl pigeons are as uptight about that sort of thing as i would apparently be if i was a girl pigeon, maybe she even found it endearing who knows, i don't know her. it's none of my business really. sorry pigeons.
Having seen some births now i can say that dog birth is amazing cos they just slip n slide out one after the other like a little conveyor belt. And theyre so little and unformed. And then UNGULATE BIRTHS ... are amazing for the opposite reason which is that 10mins after being born they are filing their taxes. Unless they are goats, in which case they are committing tax fraud instead
Goats are what is called a precocial species, which means that shortly after birth they are able to do many thimgs on their own, such as standing, walking, eating, and embezzlement

Itâs actually funny (not haha) to me that Brilliant Minds isnât bigger, not just in the ratings (concerning), but on social media, when it has literally everything Tumblr always says they want.
Middle-aged gays? â
Young lesbians? â
MILFs? â
Female friendships? â
Male friendships? â
Mixed friendships? â
Hot people? â
Daddy issues? â
Mommy issues? â
A doctor that actually wants to help? â
Messy juicy storylines? â
Beautiful emotional storylines? â
Great guest stars? â
Like WHAT is not clicking???????
not to be a bitch but i think brilliant minds is proof that a lot of tumblr fans who want their ship to be together because of Representation are full of shit because what do you mean there's a show where the main character is gay and has a relationship with another main character, there are three women of color in the main cast, one of whom is a lesbian (with anxiety rep) whose girlfriend is a recurring character, there's currently three other men of color in the main/supporting cast, one of whom is gay, and all these characters have strong emotional storylines that are real and heartfelt and not blown up for messy drama, and all of these characters love each other so much and respect each other so much, and the whole thesis of the show is what if doctors actually treated their patients like real people and did everything not just to treat their sickness but to help them live full and meaningful lives with it,
and yet despite all of that it's probably going to be canceled after this season because no one's watching it
I remember when I was younger, anytime I watched a movie where the characters have to kill a scary monster/alien, I always thought the act of killing it was intended to be part of the horror. Like thereâs this amazing creature that weâve never seen before, and maybe under different circumstances we couldâve coexisted with it, but itâs trying to attack you and you have to defend yourself, but by destroying it you also destroy the ability to ever understand it and thatâs sad and is supposed to make you feel conflicted.
It was not until well into my adulthood that I realized most people do not have complicated feelings about movies where people have to kill a scary alien monster, nor is that necessarily meant to be part of the narrative (unless it very obviously is). They just want the scary thing to die because itâs scary. I donât have a real conclusion to this I just started thinking about it for some reason.

joining the war on kids reading any book they want on the side of kids reading any book they want. simply you will be fine. it's even good to be confronted with things you don't understand and even find upsetting, uncomfortable and difficult. it's a surprise tool that will help you later.

literally ok so not a funny story but kind of funny? when I was nine I encountered rape in a book and I was like hey mom whatâs this mean and she explained it and I was like oh. gross. and then like two weeks later a girl on the bus abruptly disclosed her csa and we were all like ????? what ???? but I was like wait hang on thereâs a word for that âď¸đ¤Â and explained what it meant and that it was illegal and that you could talk to a teacher or my mom if it had happened to you and everyone was like ohhhhh I see I see and very somberly comforted the girl (she was safe she was removed from her home and living with my neighbor at the time so it wasnât Urgent)
And this is a perfect illustration of why it is important for kids to read or variety of things, and why abusers donât want them to.
For anyone wondering, the PhD student's name is Myra Cheng.
Here's a link to an article about the study from the Stanford Report: link.
Across three preregistered studies, participants interacting with sycophantic AI became more convinced of their own rightness and less willing to repair relationships. Yet at the same time, participants rated sycophantic AI models as higher quality, more trustworthy, and more desirable for future use, which may explain why this behavior has persisted despite its harmful impacts.

This is the disgusting, blame shifting response of a man who created a film in which the female lead's breasts and navel get more screentime than her face. A movie where a woman gets sexually assaulted in the dark by the "Hero". And then, when she's visibly traumatised and in need of help, she gets told that she can't report it to the police because her being seen as defiled would negatively affect her father's political career. This is a movie where the "hero" essentially says that his love language is molestation. This is a movie where the victim eventually falls in love with the assailant, in a disgusting reprisal of the "marry your rapist/assailant in order to restore your dignity" trope, because Indians think that the one who got assaulted is the one who is dirty and worthless.
Not the one who committed the crime.
I've been told by people that there's no greater proof of bad karma carrying on into a new life, than being born as an Indian woman. On most days, I disregard that statement. On other days, I wonder what I did to deserve to be punished.
This might seem to be an overreaction to a movie, but it's not about the movie.
It's about the fact that the director made the movie the way that he did, and was enabled, empowered and secure enough to do so.
It's about the fact that the lead actor, who holds all the power in this project, did nothing to protect the dignity of his co actor and continued to sing praises about the director throughout.
It's about the fact that this movie was made by a director and actor and production team of men, who all chose to hire someone accused of raping a child - a case that is currently sub judice - as the choreographer, and proudly claim that this person is a wonderful human being.
It's about the fact that the actress was forced to promote this movie under the threat of contractual obligation, despite the fact that she wanted to step away due to the offensive and degrading nature of the final cut of the movie.
It's about the fact that the CBFC -which usually demands that consensual on screen kisses be removed- deemed these scenes unproblematic, and the director and lead actor said it was a "family entertainer," asking people to bring their children to the theatre.
This is about the fact that when the sexual assault was playing out on screen, men in the audience were cheering.
This is an RRR/Rambheem blog, and this post is not directly related to that movie. However, there's a chance, however miniscule, that the small contribution I make to this fandom through my gifs and posts and writing, might lead someone to further explore Ram Charan's filmography. So I had to say something.
Please don't watch Peddi.
Please.

Hey, unpopular opinion, apparently. But people donât just âhave pain for no reasonâ doctors say this all the time (especially to women and chronically ill people) and the truth is, Thats literally not possible. Even if your pains are psychosomatic (a word I hesitate to even use because of the way its used so often) there is a reason you are having those pains whether its mental illness, abuse, etc. If your doctor consistently tells you that âwell some people just have pain for no reasonâ get a new doctor. Thatâs a doctor who is not going to give a shit what your actual symptoms or experiences are.
I just wanna add to clarify the psychosomatic thing.
That word DOES NOT MEAN youâre making it up. It doesnât mean youâre imagining the symptom. What it means is that the symptom ISNâT DIRECTLY CAUSED BY ANY OF THE THINGS THAT WOULD NORMALLY CAUSE IT.
I fought to get a PCOS diagnosis for 2 and a half years. For the ENTIRE time I was fighting, I was dealing with 3 cysts that were not going away by themselves and eventually required surgery to remove. At one point close to the end of the battle, I suddenly went blind. I was visiting my parents and was standing on the veranda looking out over the tree we had planted in memory of my dog and suddenly I got one of the shooting pains that I was quite frankly used to at that point and my vision started to go dark. It was like the sun was setting while being completely hidden behind storm clouds but it was 2pm in the middle of Summer on a clear day. Within about 30 seconds I couldnât see ANYTHING. I was 27 years old and I was screaming for my mother.
My mum raced me to her doctor (he was a 15 minute drive away as opposed to 45 minutes to the nearest hospital) and he quickly worked out that there was nothing wrong with my eyes and what had happened was totally unrelated to them. Then he said it was psychosomatic and I freaked out, yelling that I was NOT making this up and I definitely wasnât imagining it. Very quickly he calmed me down and said he believed me and I had misunderstood. He explained that whatever was going on with my abdominal pains (he suggested PCOS which I hadnât even heard of at that point) had been ignored for so long that my body was starting to do things other than the normal pain response to try to draw my attention to the problem. My sight going was my body basically jumping around in front of me going âHEY ARE YOU EVEN LISTENING TO ME HELLLOOOOOOO??????â
He gave me some prescription strength painkillers and my sight started to come back as soon as they started to kick in. About 45 minutes after it started I could see well enough to walk around without help and within a day and a half I was back to normal. On top of that I finally had a scan booked to figure out what the hell was causing all the pain.
Psychosomatic symptoms are NOT imagined or fabricated or happening for âno reasonâ. Experiencing them DOES NOT make you a liar. It makes you someone who has been battling with something serious for so long that your own body has started to get impatient with you.
I completely agree. Thank you for sharing this.
Psychosomatic symptoms are literally your body flipping random alarm switches just to get any alarm blaring because youâve been ignoring the regular ones
