there seems to be a fundamental disagreement between microwave oven manufacturers and the producers of microwave meals over whether the customer should know the wattage of their microwave or if such details should be abstracted away from them

[toroidalearthtruther]

the microwave rice demands 800 watts of power for 2 minutes, but all the microwave can offer me three settings: one low, one high, and one somewhere in the middle. I turn it to the one in the middle as I happen to know 800W is the average power of most microwaves. the light comes on and the bag of rice starts slowly turning, but rather than hearing the usual rumble of the microwave, I instead start hearing short snippets of conversation - words snatched from the ether. the lights flicker and a chill runs up my spine. the voices remind me of those "spirit boxes" ghost hunters use. I double check the setting on the microwave. "ah," I say, remembering that I had set it to medium,

Gotta say, my absolute favorite Undertale Deltarune theory has got to be —Gaster isn’t a thing—: that every single bwip and bop that is used to confirm a Gaster… is just a thing (irrelevant) and that the fans are effectively Rick Rolling themselves in such a funny way that the Under/Rune-peeps-in-command just kinda throw in shit that just feeds just enough into it.

I just think I’d be so funny to get to the end as everyone is waiting for the single most confirming Gaster reveal and it’s just a video file Rick Rolling with the caption “There’s no Gaster, there’s never been a Gaster, idk where that idea came from”.

And then reveals a Gaster because I deserve to be wrong in theories I subscribe to~

Quick question for the void: in response to some alpha cuck spewing diarrhea about “septum ring theory”, would it be considered socially acceptable to go into depth about mpreg? Y’know, since they seem to be the type to be submissive to their homies? Figured I could help expand their horizons in a more positive direction

Yes, enlighten the sheep

Yeah, I’d like to know the percentage of them that are “well acquainted” with it

On the record, I was never here. But off the record absolutely yes

Go for it. It’d at the very least be funny to see his response

You might get reported, but fuck it. I’m behind this 100%

my greatest accomplishment in life is that I inadvertently made my friend break up with her shitty boyfriend by throwing her a really fucking awesome birthday party

[going2hell4everythingbutbeingbi]

okay so I fucking love event planning and decorating and hosting and baking, aka all the elements of a banger birthday party. I am so freaking happy to throw people parties because it means I get to throw a party, then go to a party! yippee!

so my friend's birthday rolled around and I knew she wanted a party because I'd done them for her before, but I wanted to make it extra special because she was turning the big 25. so I did all the regular stuff I am So Excited About: had her roommates let me into her apartment while she was out, put up balloons and homemade garlands and streamers and table decor, made her favorite cake and snack plates and cocktails, ordered catering from a restaurant she loves, got a bunch of our friends to come over to surprise her, wrote her a disgustingly heartfelt card, etc. and then because it was the big quarter century, I was like I gotta do something extra.

now. I do not like clowns. my friend loves clowns. we've gone to the circus together and she's seen me literally close my eyes and hide when the clowns are out in the audience, meanwhile she's screaming and waving at them. so obviously I hired a clown for her birthday. (btw seeing him out of clown costume made me less freaked out because now I knew that the guy under there looks like someone's uncle.)

so she showed up after work totally expecting a party because I'm too paranoid to throw a real surprise party, and obviously loved it. and then I was like btw. there's a clown.

she lost her mind. she was sooo excited. she loved the party and she loved the clown. I was like haha yes I'm getting a good grade in birthday parties and didn't think much of it because frankly I do this a lot, and it's so much fun for me that I don't consider it work. like, I love doing all that for my friends. it's not any kind of sacrifice.

two days later, she texted me that she broke up with her boyfriend.

naturally I was like omg tell me everything I hated that guy let's get coffee. so we did and she told me that for her birthday, her boyfriend of nine months 1) forgot about it and didn't get her anything, 2) got mad at her for not texting him while she was at her party, 3) got mad at her for telling him about the party because it was "passive aggressive", and 4) called her immature and stupid for being excited about a clown at her birthday.

this was all very in character for him. but she'd just come from a lovely birthday party full of her friends who love her and want to put effort into making a nice day for her, where her friend who hates clowns hired a clown just to make her happy even though the party alone would've been plenty. and suddenly this wasn't a boyfriend being kinda forgetful and lazy, it was a glaring incongruity with everyone else in her life. so she finally dumped his ass. and I was soooo freaking happy. so clowns can be good.

I feel like when people shut down ANY debate around ozempic with "don't talk about other people's bodies / choices" what they actually mean is just "stop questioning thinness as the ideal".

It's absolutely possible to talk about societal trends without making it about specific individuals. I do think it's shitty for the media to pick apart one person's body and to be like "LOOK at HER" with clickbaity before and after pictures and speculation about their diet. I don't think that helps anyone. But we can and should talk about the clear returning trend towards very skinny bodies and the normalisation of weight loss drugs. And the impact this will have on people growing up in the midst of this culture.

[astarions-jester]

What I need people who aren't fat and aren't disabled to understand too is that doctors are actively pushing Ozempic on us even when it would be actively harmful to us. Ozempic is contraindicated for several of my conditions, it would actually damage my heart. But I have had doctors literally put the Ozempic needle in my hand and tell me "I can't treat you if you don't take this." I got told to take Ozempic at my ADHD assessment. I got told to take Ozempic when I was having my regular endometriosis checkup. It isn't just "judging other people" there is a serious, genuine problem with how it is being forced on people, especially disabled people being falsely told we won't get treatment if we don't go on it. I'm very lucky that 1, I did the reading and found out "holy shit this actually would be very dangerous for me" and 2, I have a fantastic GP who understands my conditions and told me directly "I would never recommend Ozempic to someone with your conditions" but most disabled people do not have the luxury of a good GP who has your back (and note that I'm in Australia so I actually have time to talk to my GP for longer than 15 minutes)

I seriously consider the current push for Ozempic a disability rights issue.

[sitronsangbody]

This!! I've been offered ozempic by my GP, thankfully she listened when I said I wasn't interested in that. But most fat people I know have been recommended it or been on it. A friend of mine (who isn't even fat) was told to go on ozempic for a while to lose some weight for a hernia surgery, and no one had even told her that it makes you nauseous. People are so convinced that weight loss is such a magical wonderful thing that no price could be too high, they act like the risks and side effects of ozempic don't exist. And I know this is not a new phenomenon but it's definitely having a Moment.

Have you guys noticed how much the internet/technology just does not listen to you anymore? I click “don’t show this artist” on Spotify and I get recommended a music video by them on the front page. I click “skip this update” on a pop up every time I open a file organization app and it’s right back there every time. O click unsubscribe on a newsletter and it keeps showing up in my inbox!! I click “delete my account” and the next time I open the website they suggest I “reactivate”.

So the one thing i keep seeing is about the green prince, and his whole quest line. During the part of the game where you need 3 powerful remnants of Pharloom’s past, there’s a 4th unmentioned one you can get via the green prince. You get to relive his now ruined kingdom and extract his power in place of any of the 3 the game tells you about.

The thing I keep seeing is how cruel hornet is for intruding on his memory, making a mockery of the life his kingdom once held and ripping his heart when it’s not even required. Like ???? I can see where that idea can come from but that wasn’t at all how I saw it.

Green Prince is seen roting in a cell in a forgotten corner of the land, begrudgingly sets out on what would seem to be his only remaining reason to live (to see the clockwork mockery of his love destroyed) only to see hornet once again saves him the trouble. All the while neither showing appreciation or scorn for unwanted assistance.

So what I saw with his Lost Verdania is a prince of a dead kingdom granted one last look at his land as it was, who wanted nothing more than to die in his homeland. The alternative of returning to Pharloom just to rot being unbearable. And because Hornet is perhaps the only one he’s met that can understand his unspoken words (being a princess of hollownest, a parallel long dead kingdom), he fights. He tells her in no uncertain terms that this is to be a fight to the death with the warrior who already beat his clockwork counterpart. The green prince mourns that he lived through his kingdom’s ruin and Hornet surprises him with a unique opportunity, a second chance in as close a way he never thought possible.

And Hornet is shown over and over that she knows full well when to finish an adversary and when to hold off on the killing blow.

When an ad plays on tv talking about criminal acts, sex offender, the works… and you don’t know which side of politics it is because all that applies to the president and maga’s claims of any immigrant, until half way through.

If your ‘president’ is guilty of the same things you want to deport people over, then why not deport the dangerous criminal housed in the White House?

"but how can be asexual and also sex worker" idk man it's just a job. I doubt most people who work in retail have a kink for stocking shelves.

The hunchback of Notre Dame (1996) is such a good example of why “god fearing man upholding law and protecting societal values” is no actual judge of moral character. How many people claim to be in the right just because they’ve cannot see that they’re worshiping their own bastardized ideals and claiming it to be righteousness.

I'm sorry I'm going fucking insane over trans people in sports issues the anti trans crowd has lost the fucking plot and then has the audacity to act like its the trannies who are ridiculous

I used to be of the "well the sports issue isn't really important to me its w/e I just don't want it to be a gateway into other transphobia" but oh my fucking god we are so far gone. The fencing shit is sending me over the edge. What the fuck.

[catboybiologist]

I can't even articulate my words so I'm just going to tell a story in screenshots

I am so fucking tired of being gaslit about this

[catboybiologist]

I'm also still so fucking pissed that we have to include "ooo the trans fencer only finished in X place" because its a reminder that trans women will never be allowed to excel at anything in the public eye without being cut down. Fuck OFF
