I’m convinced it was an interdimensional portal
Oooh, I know this one! The FAA (Federal Aviation Administration - they make the rules for flying here in the US) has designated “roads” in the sky to keep all the commercial jets from running into each other. When you’re headed the same direction at the same speed, you don’t get in each other’s way. If you’re heading east you fly at one elevation, and west-bound planes fly at a different height. There are lots of rules to keep mid-air crashes to a minimum.
However, if you’re running late, or weather in one spot is bad, you can call up Air Traffic Control and ask for a new route! And they will look at their little radar screens and maps of all the airplanes in the area, and tell you what shortcut you can take.
I am a little bit overcome by this. We made actual imaginary tunnels in the sky so our giant metal birds can fly through the open air in the most organized, polite way possible. We check in over our designated long distance thought projection machine channel that anyone can listen in on but we all promise not to interrupt to get permission to swap imaginary sky tunnels. We come up with the weirdest impossible shit and immediately give it boundaries! Humans are ridiculous. I mean yes these are good rules and many many people would die if we didnt have them, a+ on these rules, but if you take a step back wanting to sunder every natural limitation we can find and then going ahead and building our own so nothing gets too messy is a fucking hilarious art for a species to compulsively pursue.

are any of us truly shocked tho
After a large dog “trained” with methods like his bit me in the face without warning, I’m just glad it wasn’t a person that got killed, tbh.
I’m currently lamenting the fact that people are inevitably going to interpret this as “not even a famous dog trainer can control pit bulls!!!!” and not “Cesar Milan is a hack who doesn’t know what he’s doing”.
Cesar Milan’s methods are infamous for backfiring - they rely on the completely bullshit idea of “alpha wolves” and dogs owners needing to make the dog associate them with discipline and strength instead of comfort and safety. It’s essentially about teaching the dog that its owner is an authority figure, not a family member. Pit bulls have genetic tendencies that make them susceptible to developing anxiety problems and, in the worst case scenario, canine PTSD. Discipline focused training can make that worse, which leads to aggressive behavior. I’m not a professional dog trainer or anything, I’m just autistic and obsessed with learning about animal behavior, and even I know “The Dog Whisperer” is and always has been a dangerous hack.
Remember everyone. The lesson to take away from this is “Cesar Milan is a hack fraud”, not “Pitbulls are inherently dangerous and must be exterminated”
This is why you watch Victoria Stilwell instead.
Sometimes I can still hear their voice
Breaking: TikTok is better bc it’s more hostile towards humanity
The lack of video content is what kept us here... I thought we all agree that the best feature of this hellhole was and always will be anonymity.
Tumblr's not asking for my phone number. It's not going through my contacts to try and connect me with my fucking colleagues. I can come here and talk about whatever I want without anyone ever seeing my face or hearing my voice. I don't have to censor myself and hide my interests or enthusiasm out of fear of consequences it might have in my real life.
I think the biggest misunderstanding they have of Tumblr is that they think of it as a social media platform when in actuality it's a blogging platform with social features.
all i hear from that last paragraph is “id rather be spied on by an app and let it gather my personal information to be sold to the highest bidder who wants it to manipulate me into giving them money, than go through the “labor-intensive” process of clicking on a blog and deciding for myself if I liked it”
i don’t care if you hate tumblr but the total desensitization to having your privacy violated and the belief that making decisions for yourself about what content you want to see is too hard and so much work that you’d rather let an app — that was developed by people you don’t know and who you have no reason to trust — study you and everything you do so that it can make those choices for you about what you enjoy ….
like holy shit I wanna laugh but im actually just very concerned.
this was the funniest thing I have ever seen in my LIFE
Cabbot Cove
No violent pre-meditated murders here for
15

You know, I just realized something. The series is called “Murder, she wrote” in English, right? And you know that theory about how she’s actually the killer in all of her cases (since people always seem to die when she’s around)?
Well, in the german dub they translated the show as “Mord ist ihr Hobby”, which literally means “Murder is her Hobby”. Which implies her being a very different sort of person.
HOW MANY HAS SHE KILLED
You can’t even just look up the number of episodes, because there are plenty of episodes where two, three, even four people get offed!
Mrs. Fletcher, the Harbinger
I have no proof for this at all, but my theory is the Jessica Fletcher is either a manifestation of Death, or is beloved by death. The action of her husband’s death forms the primium mobile of the series. It is his death that compels her to write her first murder mystery, and it is only after her death that, seemingly, her life becomes peppered with dead bodies. Please remember that the first horseman of the apocalypse in Revelation carries a bow, although he himself does not do the killing, he is only there to conquer, but death follows after him. Her last name means ‘maker of arrows.’
There appears to be a supernatural myopia surrounding the frequency of the murders. The seemingly quaint town of Cabbot Cove, ME, population nobody, has several murders a year. The per-capital murder rate is astronomical, but nobody seems to be aware of this. Likewise, whenever she leaves town, somebody dies. It’s never someone she loves directly, although persons she love may become caught up in the aftermath, falsely accused of murder.
Jessica appears to be unaware of the strangeness of all of this as well. This implies either 1. She is similarly under the same supernatural effect that is cast upon ever other person she is around, or, 2. She is play acting.
So, upon the death of her husband, the close association with death did one of two things – it attracted Death to her, and Death as a metaphysical force, enjoying her company, chooses to kill off dozens so that it may remain near her until finally she falls into her end, OR the experience awakened something inside of her/Death overshadowed her being, and now she has become an embodiment of Death, a sort of psychopomp for death-by-murder, with the rest of the world unaware of the sudden shift in policy.
i love the internet, sometimes … @gowns
I saw the phrase “primium mobile” and I knew I was in for a fucking ride.
If you write mystery novels, there is an actual problem called “Cabot Cove Syndrome” based on this series. it’s what happens when you have a series (usually cozy mysteries) set in an small, somewhat isolated location but where dead bodies keep piling up.
My dudes, I feel we’re missing the obvious here: Her husband’s death didn’t attract Death to her - she was married to Death, and killing people around her is his way of staying close. He only became human for a short time to be with her, and it wasn’t enough!
truly the end goal is not "my close friends aren't annoyed by me and it's all in my head, they're my friends and they love me", it's "sometimes I do annoy my close friends, just as the people I love most will also annoy me sometimes, because this is normal, and we will continue to stay friends, and they're not going to want to immediately cut me out of their life if I do something annoying once in a while"
Tonight on My Husband Doesn’t Know How to Baby Talk
“Ma’am, are you aware that these, right here are your hands? They belong to you. And you get to decide what happens with them. So when you use these hands to pull your binky out of your mouth that is not necessarily a dad problem. I’ll fix it obviously i just want you to acknowledge it’s not my fault”
Husband: ma’am it has been reported lately that you do in fact have tiny little toes and a little button nose, do you care to comment?
Penny Rose: Babbles in Baby
Husband: RIVETING!
Penny Rose: Does that High Pitched Baby Yell ™️
Husband: Let it out friend! Feel your feelings!
Me: Hehehe silly husband doesn’t know how to do baby talk
All of tumblr collectively at my husband:
Penny Rose: does a sad baby scream
Husband: you don’t even have to understand taxes yet! I can explain them but you’ve got several years before that’s relevant!
Penny Rose: wide eyes, staring at her father, almost intrigued
Husband: I lied to you Penny your mother does our taxes. Do you want to know about arbitration? I know all about arbitration.
THE MAN THE MYTH THE LEGEND
yes he just walks around the house and talks to her like this
Penny Rose: Cooing as twinkle twinkle little star plays
Husband: Now Penny there is a lot of misinformation out there in the world and I hate to tell you this but the moon is in fact not made of cheese. That is a conspiracy theory pushed by Big Dairy.
????
Husband: Holds Penny Rose up to her reflection in the microwave
Husband: you see Penny Rose! This was the M. Night Shyamalan twist! You were mirror baby all along!
comic for a zine~!
BREWERROSE APPRECIATION WEEK
Day 1 — Favourite Episode | Meet the Parents (5.11)
I got 4 and almost died
i got 5, somehow.
It’s like that mafia crew that made a pizza joint as a front but their pizza was so good they just went legit
Because ONE video that made me cry wasn’t enough this week.
As a Scottish person living in England I feel this on a personal level, when people say shit like “well it’s not the genuine asylum seekers I’m bothered by, it’s the people who just move here to get a better job and take advantage of our welfare system” and I’m like “Mate, I literally moved 500 miles south to a different country just to get a better job and better weather, if you’re going to hate on anyone for that hate on me.”
Then they try to back-track and say things like “Well you already speak perfect English so it’s fine” and I’m like “My grandma didn’t speak very good English when my grandparents settled in the UK from Finland, what are you trying to say?”
And they’re like “Well I’m sure you’re grandparents had useful jobs and weren’t just sponging off the system.” like… nah, my grandma mended clothes and my grandad sold garden sheds, they weren’t exactly brain surgeons
“But they…” just admit it, it’s not white immigrants that bother you, I doubt Americans go on marches protesting the Canadian undergrad students who overstay their visas or all the germans and scandinavians who just rocked up in the Midwest one day and decided to call it their own.
This was how I finally started to understand white privilege.
the group chat giving me some ideas today.
VACCINATE YA KIDS FFS
The other thing about measles is that it resets your body’s memory of other diseases. So all those times you’ve gotten sick? Your body’s memory cells no longer remember those illnesses, so even if you get the same type of illness again your body will react like it’s the first time you’ve been sick.
It’s so much worse than “just a disease”.
Measles does WHAT
Holy fuck
What the fuck what the fuck what the fUCK WHAT THE FUCK WHAT THE FUCK
antivaxxers also, in part, helped sabotaged the human lyme disease vaccine for lyme disease caused by borrelia burgdorferi infection (until 2016 the only known species of lyme disease causing bacteria in the USA). In 1998, the first lyme disease vaccine for the strain of the bacteria prevalent in the USA licensed. It passed clinical trials and was shown to be safe and effective; it was between 76 and 92% effective at preventing lyme disease with 3 injections. Antivaxxers proceeded to abuse the adverse affect reporting system, often complaining of arthritis, and this caused media and general hysteria about the vaccine. if you remember the flu vaccine hysteria around the swine flu epidemic, it was kind of like that. despite double-blind trials conducted both before and after licensing, that was unable to support their claims and instead displaying that the vaccine was safe and effective, the damage was done, and the vaccine was shelved in the USA. you can get a lyme disease vaccine in Europe, but Europe has a different strain of the bacteria that causes lyme disease.
Lyme disease can become very serious, it can infect the nervous system and cause neurological problems especially in young children who are often bitten on the head or the neck, undiagnosed it can cause chronic health issues that mimic other diseases. Without safe prophylactic measures beyond trying to minimize contact w ticks, this has driven people who have had lyme disease, have chronic effects from mass-disseminated lyme disease infection, or people who believe they have chronic lyme disease to go to quack doctors and undergo unsafe, unapproved medical treatment in an attempt to stop suffering.
This would not be happening on the scale that it is if antivaxxers didn’t straight up execute a supervillain plot to sabotage the lyme disease vaccine. the vaccine was licensed in december 1998, which was the year andrew wakefield published his fraudulent research on the MMR vaccine

I was working upstairs when I hear one of our baby leopard geckos start screaming. Normally they only scream when threatened, but this particular guy screams at almost everything. Turns out there was a small fly in his cage that was bothering him.
Yes the fly was removed afterwards.
