I cannot get this poem out of my head. It haunts me. Joyously, it haunts me. 

[peepingnee]

This poem format is my favorite thing and this is the first time I’ve ever seen it’s origin story. I love it. Every time.

the thing about the ren faire is that a full 30% of the men there are wearing kilts. and like, don't get me wrong i do think about a dozen of those per faire per day would be happier with estrogen and she/her pronouns, but just statistically i think the primary thing going on here is that there are a lot of cis men in the world right now who yearn to wear skirts. and i guess you don't notice that until you put them in a context where they're allowed to do that and still maintain access to Manhood

[transwarriorwoman]

My new coworker, upon seeing me in a skirt for the first time: "well if she's allowed to wear skirts I'm going to wear a kilt for st Patricks day."

We all immediately told him he could do that whenever he wanted and he could wear skirts too, and he got really quiet that day.

[luimnigh]

Also don't wear a kilt for St Patrick's Day, because Kilts are Scottish. Wear them for St Andrew's Day (November 30th) or Burns' Night (January 25th).

Wear whatever you want forever, but please stop confusing Ireland and Scotland.

here is a list with everything australia is banning for minors under the age of 16.

Australia’s under 16s social media ban could extend to Reddit, Twitch, Roblox and even dating apps

Lego Play and Steam among the unexpected additions to the list that includes Facebook, Instagram, TikTok, YouTube and X

some kids won’t be able to contact their parents with the loss of whatsapp. they are banning basically all socials for kids. strict parents? you will only be able to stay at home and do nothing because there’s no way you’ll go outside. there’s no way you’ll talk to your friends /dir

they are banning LEGO PLAY. that is unnecessary.

if you are an australian citizen PLEASE SIGN THIS PETITION

social media apps are rolling out ai age detection. do you think they want to go through the hassle of getting everyone to sign in with their correct ages? NO. they want you to upload photos of your face, and photos of your passport.

you know social media apps have the ability to send your data to third party companies, why would they not do it for this?

a world where kids’ information is easily accessible on the internet, even just the statement that they are under a certain age DOES NOT PROTECT THEM AT ALL.

they will have filtered access to recent news only. they will have no variety in their opinions. whatever the australian government provides them will be their only information to rely on.

if you are NOT an australian citizen, reblogs will help. thank you.

[bundibird]

And FYI, signing this is a THREE-PART PROCESS.

You fill out your name/email address and click the "no i haven't signed this before/yes I am an aussie citizen" buttons, then you check your details and confirm your signature---- AND THEN YOU HAVE TO VERIFY IT FOR IT TO BE COUNTED. They'll email you; you need to click the verification button within that email. It'll bring you to a webpage saying thanks, your signature has been verified.

This:

Needs to be on the final page, or else you havent verified your signature, and it doesnt count yet.

As gen-AI becomes more normalized (Chappell Roan encouraging it, grifters on the rise, young artists using it), I wanna express how I will never turn to it because it fundamentally bores me to my core. There is no reason for me to want to use gen-AI because I will never want to give up my autonomy in creating art. I never want to become reliant on an inhuman object for expression, least of all if that object is created and controlled by tech companies. I draw not because I want a drawing but because I love the process of drawing. So even in a future where everyone’s accepted it, I’m never gonna sway on this.

the space race may be the funniest point in history period and i'll stand by that. the US is like "yes whoever gets into space first will prove once and for all that our economic model is superior and that we are, in general, the superior country of superior and smarter people." then the soviets just went and did it and the US freaked out and needed to cover their ass so were like "WE MEAN THE MOON, WE MEAN THE FIRST TO LAND ON THE MOON."

[fanderburker]

[skluug]

yeah its cus walking on the moon was cool as hell and all this other boring shit sucked ass

[togglesbloggle]

When I was a freshman in a red-state college, I had a professor who taught Newtonian physics with a super thick Russian accent.  The student body was unusually conservative for a state college, so there was a sort of general bemusement about learning physics from a Russian, but even back then the Cold War was far enough in the past that not even the red tribe was inclined to stir up trouble about it.

He was aware enough of this to get off on trolling the class, though.  Whenever some force diagram in a homework assignment needed to be weightless, instead of being some generic spacecraft it would be “Mir” specifically.  And he’d always use ‘cosmonaut’ instead of ‘astronaut’, that kind of thing.

One day about halfway through the semester, he’s doing this with in-class examples on the board, and one of the students finally gets up the guts to troll back a little.  So this kid shouts from the back of the auditorium, “Hey professor, what’s the difference between a cosmonaut and an astronaut?”

And this beautiful man spins around on one heel to face the class, whiteboard marker triumphantly over his head, clearly having been waiting for this moment the entire semester: “Cosmonaut go to space first! Ha!”

[awkwardsonicphotos]

Decided to try something.

Day one of adding photos of Sonic in my house until my husband tells me to stop.

[awkwardsonicphotos]

Day two. My husband still hasn’t noticed the first.

[awkwardsonicphotos]

Day 3, he still hasn’t said anything yet. So I’ve gotten more bold and placed this on his work desk.

[awkwardsonicphotos]

Day 4, he found the third and first picture last night. When he found the first he laughed and started talking in his Sonic voice impression. Still hasn’t found the fridge ice cream wrapper.

[awkwardsonicphotos]

Day 5, he found the fourth image and laughed. Trying to be more sneaky with this sunflower Sonic.

[awkwardsonicphotos]

Day 6, he hasn’t noticed the flower picture yet. I put this in my art studio for motivation to get stuff done.

[awkwardsonicphotos]

Day 7, “Uh Meow?” Is now our new bathroom decor.

[awkwardsonicphotos]

Day 8, he hasn’t noticed the last few photos yet. So I photoshopped Sonic’s head over him on one of our wedding photos.

[awkwardsonicphotos]

Day 9, Friday callout in front of our video game shelf.

[awkwardsonicphotos]

Day 10, Thistle now has her own photo of her hero. Meanwhile, my husband found the sunflower picture and the wedding picture. When he found the wedding photo he said, “Wait, what is that? Who is this? Is that me? Haha! Chili dogs!” Later he asked if this was a game.

[awkwardsonicphotos]

Day 11, He thought the idea of the picture on Thistle’s home was adorable. Now we’ll see what he thinks about the one in his favorite car.

[awkwardsonicphotos]

Day 12, he loved the car photo. Now I’ve placed this photo of my mom and I in the spare bedroom.

[awkwardsonicphotos]

Day 13, since Thistle has her own photo of Sonic it only felt right to give Zorro one too.

[awkwardsonicphotos]

Day 14, he approved of Zorro’s new collar and found the game shelf photo as he was modding the gamecube to connect to our tv. So I placed this old goofy photo of my high school friends by our bed.

[awkwardsonicphotos]

Day 15, he noticed Sonic in the picture from yesterday just stating, “And then there was Sonic.” My favorite thing about all this is that he hasn’t taken any of these pictures down himself. So now I placed this in our kitchen.

[awkwardsonicphotos]

Day 16, Put this in his weight room to motivate him. He found the kitchen picture and finally found the bathroom photo. He said, “Ugh! Gremlin Sonic is just there and watches as you poop.”

[awkwardsonicphotos]

Day 17, for April Fools I changed his screens to Eggman.

[awkwardsonicphotos]

Day 18, He laughed at the Eggman computer screens. Now we have more bathroom decor. In case he forgets where the toilet is.

[awkwardsonicphotos]

Day 19, it was a big day for my husband. He came into my art studio to hug me and finally found golden ratio sonic and started laughing, then he went to work out and found muscular sonic. He wants a bigger poster version of it. Finally, he found toilet sign sonic. He said I make his life very funny. We’ll see if he feels the same after this sign I made for his car.

[awkwardsonicphotos]

Day 20, he came home from work and immediately found me saying, “Very funny, I saw what you did to my car.” Unfortunately no one has honked their horn at him yet. But I did add this safety message in our laundry room. Thanks, Sonic.

[awkwardsonicphotos]

Day 21, Super Sonic around the six chaos hedgehogs.

[awkwardsonicphotos]

Day 22, secret rings Sonic will keep the house warm in our fireplace. Husband has not noticed any new Sonic’s yet.

[awkwardsonicphotos]

Day 23, My husband came to me and said, “There’s a Sonic in our fireplace.” I told him he’s there to keep us warm. Now I have turned another wedding photo into a Sonic wedding. It has the blessing of these fellow hedgehogs.

[awkwardsonicphotos]

Day 24, my husband found the wedding photo and the dryer warning photo, he told me he won’t climb inside the dryer but once I take it down all bets are off. Later he said, “So you know my family is coming over tomorrow for dinner right?” I said yes. Then he said, “The Sonic photos are all over the house.” Then I said, “Are you asking me to stop and take them down?” He said no because he thinks it’s funny but thought I might want to take them down myself. We agreed to leave them up and when his family inevitably asks about them we’ll tell them the sonic photos are like an Easter egg hunt. So here’s this Easter Sonic. Later he did ask if I was trying to perform psychological warfare on him with these Sonic photos.

[awkwardsonicphotos]

Day 25, husband didn’t see Easter Sonic, even though he entered that room multiple times. His family also didn’t notice any of the Sonic’s until after dinner. My brother in-law started laughing when he saw the picture of Sonic in the fireplace. Then my sister in-law mentioned she saw the president’s photo in the cabinet but thought she was just seeing things. They laughed when I told them it’s like an Easter egg hunt but with Sonic. I actually had to point out the edited photo of Sonic’s head over my husband. So now I have decided to get more creative with this photo to see if my husband will read it.

[awkwardsonicphotos]

Day 26, no new updates so here’s a frozen Sonic in the freezer.

[awkwardsonicphotos]

Day 27, he thought frozen Sonic was cute. It got me thinking we don’t have enough positive messages in the house. So I fixed that by hanging this in his office.

[awkwardsonicphotos]

Day 28, He found the Dankey Kang photo and asked if that really happened. So now I placed a picture of Sonic pasta by our soup cans.

[awkwardsonicphotos]

Day 29, He found the Super Sonic picture by the chaos hedgehogs and said, “Aw Sonic has babies.” Then he found the live laugh love photo and went oh that’s cute and then he realized the Sonic faces in them and laughed and said, “Oh good, it was a joke. I just didn’t want to hurt your feelings that I don’t like those signs.” We agreed I should have made it said Live and Learn. So now I put this Sonic with his car in the garage.

[awkwardsonicphotos]

One month, this has been going on for a month now. I applaud my husband for putting up with my garbage for this long.

[awkwardsonicphotos]

Day 31, He found soup Sonic and trash can Sonic. So now I placed this Sonic on his prized Sega genesis/32X/Sega CD console.

[awkwardsonicphotos]

Day 32, today we have acquired a Sonic powered fan. He thought the Sonic on his genesis was fitting. He also tried to guess how many Sonic’s have taken over the house. He guessed 15.

[awkwardsonicphotos]

Day 33, he found the sonic in the garage and the fan. He looked up and asked how long they were there for. So now I hid this sonic on the window behind the blinds so he is greeted by this Sonic in the morning.

[awkwardsonicphotos]

Day 34, added Sonic rubber duck to the second bathroom so it has decor now too.

[awkwardsonicphotos]

Day 35, As per suggestion, the Sonic signal! I couldn’t get it to project onto the ceiling or wall unfortunately. But this works too! My husband hasn’t noticed the last few Sonic’s so he may think I have stopped.

[awkwardsonicphotos]

Day 36, He still hasn’t noticed any of the new Sonic’s. So now I have placed dead Sonic in the medicine cabinet. Because he needs medical attention.

[awkwardsonicphotos]

Day 37, He finally discovered Easter Sonic while working on fixing his Xbox. He liked that Yoshi was by the picture. Now I placed these fashionable Sonic’s on this dresser.

[awkwardsonicphotos]

Day 38, My husband found the fashionable Sonic’s and said we need to get Thistle, our pet hedgehog some clothes. Later I heard him laughing downstairs because he found the dead Sonic in the medicine cabinet. But the best part of the day was that we went to a game night activity and this dad came over to us during it and asked if we had the Sonic on our car and said he almost honked at us because of Sonk. Today though I have taped this bootleg Sonic wrapping paper over my art room closet door.

[awkwardsonicphotos]

Day 39, It keeps going. Sonic stuffing his face full of chili dogs on the pantry door.

[awkwardsonicphotos]

Day 40, this morning we got up really early to get ready for a doctors appointment and my husband saw the Sonic’s covering the closet door and just said half asleep, “Where did this come from?” Later he wanted to know how I acquired Sonic wrapping paper. At breakfast he opened the pantry to see the Sonic picture there and just said, “Haha! Chili dogs!” And then proceeded to get what he needed. I have more wrapping paper so I placed that over the desk in the spare bedroom.

[awkwardsonicphotos]

Day 41, Trying to step up my game by replacing my old table centerpiece with this Sonic one.

[awkwardsonicphotos]

Day 42, Another Sonic for my art studio. My husband finally found the Sonic in the window and the Sonic signal in the lamp. He said the signal will summon Sonic. He also loved the table sonic decor, telling Sonic to get off the table.

[awkwardsonicphotos]

Day 43- 51, I’m going to be out of town for the next few days so I have prepared this for my husband to find in the mean time. You all are spared a few days of daily updates.

you dont have to be a parent to understand the horror of walking into a room to discover that the baby crawled out of his crib and onto that pottery wheel you forgot to turn off, and while the baby is spinning around and around, the dog is sitting there all calm, like a person, gently using his paws to fashion the babys soft cartilage head into something a little more modern.  it might be the classic tale of bad parenting, but lets see where the dog is going with this

This post is from 2013. It has less than 100 notes. Together we can revive this work of art that tragically ahead of its time. We’re ready for it now

i fucking LOVE this dude (FLESH SIMULATOR is the name of his accounts). all of his videos are full of information and tips like this, and he always has loud industrial tone music mixed poorly over him speaking to make it impossible to create a clean AI copy of his voice.
