Migraine sufferers will be like "it's not like I'm disabled or anything, it's just that if I do any of these normal everyday things other people do all the time, my head explodes. But I'm fine honestly, as long as I avoid doing anything ever and my environment and the weather never changes, then my head explodes a little less"

Also, "stay home if you don't want to be murdered by the government" is not something said by people who value freedom.

I really like listening to ppls organs when I cuddle

Like y'know when you're laying on someone's chest or stomach and you start hearing the flow of fluid through their heart and the churning of their stomach and the movement of their digestive tract and the muscles recruited when they swallow

It's so intimate, and so human. Reminds me that we're flesh and blood, and that flesh and blood is a marvelous thing to be

THANK YOU FOR UNDERSTANDING!!! FINALLY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! GIRLS LOOK AT ME WEIRD WHEN I TELL EM THEIR HEARTBEAT IS PRETTY

there's something so deeply dystopian to me how tech companies don't understand that a forced convenience is not a convenience at all. i'm sure autocorrect is helpful for many, but a function that forcibly changes my actual written words and punctuation is taking away my language. photo filters can be nice but i need to choose using them myself or else i have lost the ability to take the picture i want. i don't want a machine to draw or write for me. taking away the option for me to do things manually feels like violence!!!! all this talk of endless opportunity, why are you RESTRICTING me

My favorite part of every Columbo episode is the moments that the murderer realizes:

1) Columbo might not be as stupid as he seems when he reveals just clever enough of a theory/connection that it freaks them out, only for them to brush off their concern like “nahh, just look at him, it had to be a lucky guess”

2) when they realize that Columbo fully heartedly suspects them and will NOT be dropping it, and the increasing stress of how many details he’s already figured out laid out before them mixed with juuuust enough confidence that they think they could probably still get away with it (especially when so many of them have plenty of nepotism to help them out)

3) the moment when it clicks that Columbo’s whole thing is a cleverly constructed ruse and they fucking fell for it

may we live to see the day where the first photo results of your intersex variation aren't graphic photos of igm

[intervexual]

In setting up Intersex Wiki one of the decisions I have been feeling really good about is the policy/practice that the first photos in any article on an intersex variation need to be photos of clothed individuals with their faces visible. Ideally smiling for the camera.

I'm so tired of articles on intersex variations where the visuals are graphic images of genitals & obviously uncomfortable (semi-)naked people with their faces cropped or blurred out.

It has really been a breath of fresh air to instead have humanizing photos of actual (often famous) intersex individuals as the illustrations for intersex variations, e.g.:

It's not always possible to find humanizing photos since some intersex variations are very rare, but I personally think it's been worth the effort to try and hunt down these kinds of photos! 💜

googling shit like "why do i feel bad after hanging out with my friends" and all of the answers are either "you need better friends" (i don't; my friends are wonderful) or "your social battery is drained, you need to rest and regain your energy levels" (i don't; i've got tons of energy, it's just manifesting as over-the-top neurotic mania). why is this even happening. it's like some stupid toll i have to pay as a punishment for enjoying myself too much

[beaft]

I actually, genuinely think social event aftercare would fix me. I need someone to put me to bed and say "you were fun today and no one hated you"

#theres a thing called 'larp drop' thats essentially this#esp since when having a great time you might be more inclined to disregard your limits and ignore discomfort#(and forget to eat/drink if its larp whoops)#and then once you have a moment to yourself it all comes crashing in#source: once forgot to eat at larp and had a sobbing fit in my car that ended the instant i bit into a chicken nugget - @queerfarmgremlin

[troublepunk-ldn]

this is also true of festivals, conventions, pride parades, concerts, and any situation where you have a lot of fun with other people!

Found a mole cricket yesterday and it had the cutest lil paws and the biggest wettest saddest eyes I ever saw on a bug. No one else was able to appreciate the 🥺 aspect of the creature.

they weren't fucking lying that history can repeating itself

[indicadyke]

"but our society is so progressive! theres so much more lgbt representation in movies!" *grabs you by the shoulders* this happened in post ww1 pre ww2 germany. things SEEMED to be getting more progressive then too. and YET we see the exact same thing happening with the rise of open and violent antisemitism and homo/transphobia. it's just happening AGAIN. and so many people aren't paying ATTENTION because sometimes characters are bisexual or nonbinary in cartoons or whatever. explodes.

[indicadyke]

anyway. here's a video by a jewish lesbian about lgbt history in weimar germany
