if i was a soccer player i'd simply kick that ball in the goal instead of wasting everyone's time
Without fail, every time a woman is talking about how she does not want to have children and never wants to be pregnant and how medical professionals, romantic interests and family members keep trying to bulldoze her decision and keep expecting her to change her mind because motherhood is something that is expected of all women and it is abhorrent to think a woman could not desire it, a random mother spawns in the comments to be like “Well, actually, you never know! I didn’t want children and then I got pregnant and I realized I love being a mama and I have five little babies now! Could happen to you! 🥰”
Sister, keep that to yourself or make your own goddamn post, you are ignoring that woman’s central concern and belittling her, you don’t even think you’re doing it. Formerly childfree women who ended up having children and loving it are like detransitioners in the sense that there is nothing inherently wrong with changing your mind about having children or realizing you were mistaken about your gender identity but immediately weaponizing your indecision to tell people that the barriers to healthcare and the violations of their bodily autonomy and the way society ignores that person’s wishes is actually okay because you were wrong. Some people do know themselves.
hi this drives me crazy
canon is what happens in the text. e.g. merlin tries to poison morgana
a headcanon is a fact that you have personally made up as an elaboration of canon. it is your invention. e.g. i think morgana and gwen had a teenage lesbian situationship before the events of canon. or, i think modern morgana would love evanesence.
an interpretation is how one reads the existing text. it is not an invented fact nor is it a headcanon, it is a reading. e.g. i think merlin tries to poison morgana out of misplaced self-hatred. or, i think that one line was delivered with suppressed malice and shows a nuanced relationship.
fanon is the general fandom’s accepted headcanons and interpretations that elaborate or recontextualize canon. e.g. merlin is a badass waif and morgana is a bitch.
these are all different words with different meanings.
Also, for an interpretation to be valid it needs to be based on the text. It cannot just be a vibe. One can disagree on readings of the text, but if someone comes with quotes and/or historical context and you just have vibes, then sorry, your interpretation is inferior and may in fact just be a headcanon.
Mood. Have to add my other fave Darwin Being Hyperfixated On Invertebrate Taxonomy quote
this ad has me so fucked up i can’t even decide what to be tired of
Okay but I'm getting approximately 10 billion terrible AI old man pretty lady ads for "eighty percent of people were born in the wrong place" and "your energy belongs in X location" and I cannot for the life of me comprehend who could possibly be benefitting from this. Countries seeking additional labor? Travel agencies??? I'm so numb to the grifts I've stopped asking why
I was wondering if there was anything you could tell me about cats and taurine/taurine deficiency, or reputable research/resources to look towards? I've been seeing a ton of stuff talking about how a housecat might not be getting enough taurine but it's all from people trying to sell something, which makes me immediately wary of the validity. No pressure, just want to talk to some folks who arent trying to push their products on me with scare tactics
Any commercial cat food with am AAFCO label on it will have sufficient taurine.
Cats are obligate carnivores. A lot of people think this means they can *only* eat meat, but what it really means is that there are certain amino acids they cannot make on their own, and those amino acids are found in meat. They require meat, and in certain amounts, but that doesn't mean they can *only* easy meat and nothing else. These companies are banking on people not understanding this.
This is, however, why cats cannot eat a vegan diet. The only cases of taurine deficiency I've seen was a single indoor-only cat on a vegan diet. Anyone who says their cat did well on a vegan diet is either lying or had a free-roaming cat.
goodnight everyone (:

We would fully accept any Japanese buckaroo
Foreigners will never understand how someone like Rawhide Kobayashi would immediately become a beloved local fixture in whatever small American town he ended up in.
every single time someone pulls the "How would you AMERICANS like it if someone came to AMERICA and" reversal, the answer is always "we'd fucking love it"

Your tags summed up the exact feeling I had about this
I just Googled the Swedish-Japanese guy in the OP, and according to this interview, his Japanese name was given to him by the master gardener he was apprenticed under:
“The family name ‘Murasame’ was given to me by my master. The given name ‘Tatsumasa’ is a combination of ‘dragon’ (tatsu), the [zodiac] year when I was born, and one character from my master’s name,” says Murasame."
So I think maybe it's less like naming yourself 'Brandon McFreedom' and more like moving to the states to work under a veteran car mechanic named Bud McLean, and then having him turn to you after a few years on the job, and say "Son, it's time for you to become an American so you can open up your shop. And when that day comes, I think the world should know you by a new name: McLeo GM Corvette."
Named by his superior by conventions one would apply to a super chill stray cat
This is actually how samurai would get new names when they entered adulthood and began serving a new master. They'd generally go by a "childhood name" given to them by their parents at birth, then when they came of age (or their life circumstances just changed), they'd get a new name made up of kanji relavant to their life, and one of those kanji would usually be from the name of their new master.
TIL that gardeners follow a feudalistic heirarchy and abide by the Eight Virtues of Bushido.

Two roads diverged in a wood, and I— I took the one that added 35k extra words to the projected length of this fucking story ahgeilahgleiag
I told my little nephew that I'd wave at his airplane when it flew over my house today, and he very calmly and politely explained that it wouldn't be possible to see me due to the limitations of human vision. I said he just had to squint real hard, and he took a deep breath and went into the toddler version of "see, what you're not understanding–"
it is actually haunting me that I forgot to wave. if he looked out the airplane window, he wouldn’t have seen me…..
The yard is full of young birds and animals, and it is so much fun to watch them. I like the baby appearance almost a bit more than the adult one but I guess it is mostly because I like the diversity. It feels like an honor that their parents decided that this is a safe spot for them to learn how to live. Bonus-tree clip - the Redbellied youngster was not on the ground. And a teensy opossum ❤️ (MoDo, Cardi, Blue Jay, Oriole, RWBB, Grosbeak, Blue Jay, Grackle, Woodpecker)

The library says thank you for boosting our circulation stats and the book will still be here later if you want it another time <3
