Sometimes, I need to take photos for work.

Sometimes, those photos need to be taken underneath vehicles. This is difficult as underneath a vehicle is very dark, but metal is very reflective, which makes using a flashlight both necessary and an issue.

Now, my favorite manager once said of me, "look at her. she burns if she looks at the forecast for too long" which is the meanest and truest thing ever said about my complexion.

Did I, partially as a joke, try to diffuse the flashlight beam off the underside of my forearm in order to get pictures underneath a truck once? Yes. Did it work? Also yes.

When I explained how I got the photos to my (different) manager, he looked at me and said very tiredly, "that is the saddest thing I've ever heard."

"oh no it's even worse than that," I assured him, and proceeded to remove my watch to show him my tan lines.

He was very distressed about this for months.

"members of a marginalized group deserve to live and not get hate crimes. This is also the case if many of them are bigoted and some of them are violently so"

"well MY pet cause is comprised out of 100% pure non problematic people!"

....buddy I have news for you about humans

[ursavorpalis]

Humans are not inherently good or bad. They are inherently social animals, who are predisposed to be kind to those in their in-group and hostile to anyone who isn't who is strong enough to be a threat.

Learning to widen your in-group is a skill which not all humans have picked up. Learning to be kind to people outside your in-group is a lesson most humans, including marginalized ones, never learn. It can't be an offense punishable by death or we'd kill billions, including people you love.

I got a job at a gas station across from a casino and a guy keeps coming in to buy whole cartons of cigarettes and talks in the third person calling himself "snake eyes pete" and every time I tell him his total hes like "tell ya what if old Pete rolls a snake eyes why dont you give it to him for free?" and he rolls the same set of loaded dice on the counter and it does not matter how many times he rolls snake eyes I will not give him the cartons for free he gets so mad

The horde grows.

There's so many horror games about having to try to weed out and deal with inhuman imposters, but I want one where the script is flipped. You are something inhuman, you are an imposter, and if you want to survive you have to blend into a world that is trying to hunt you down and destroy you. You aren't human, but you must masquerade as one and infiltrate their world, or you will die.

"oh I don't buy vegetables bc they go bad too fast for me to use" listen to me. cook them while they're fresh - the day you buy them or the day after - and cook the whole package. even if it's too much to eat at once. cook them and then put the leftover cooked veggies in your fridge. and then put them in other stuff. veggies in your omelette. veggies in your sandwich. veggies in your soup. the sky is the limit

Would You Fuck This Furry?

Jumba Jookiba from Lilo and Stitch

Remaining time: 5 days 16 hours

An alien can be a type of furry. If you believe. I certainly believe. Also I love Lilo and Stitch so I'm giving Jumba a pass. Also pretty sure he's somewhat based on a hippo so. Anyway! He's a self-proclaimed evil genius, the mastermind behind our beloved Experiment 626... aka Stitch. As well as very very many other evil experiments, each designed for a particular terrifying purpose...

Still, as much as Jumba declares himself to be evil, this big guy's got a heart of gold. He's intelligent, loud, bumbling, and endearing, and even through all his villainy he maintained his own code of ethics, so it didn't take much for him to be won over by the kindness of Lilo and her weird little family. He's certainly still proud and confident, but he's a more humble and helpful guy these days. Won't stop him from getting up to mischief though!

There is no nuance button, if your answer is some variation of ‘I would if X’ then the answer is yes.
