Peeps in extreme temperatures, plain water is NOT the only way to stay hydrated and can in fact be more dangerous if you're sweating a lot and not putting more electrolytes back into your body.

There are a ton of quick and cheap electrolyte drink recipes that you can find online. Tea, coffee, cocount water, milk, milk substitutes, juice, etc are all hydrating despite extremely persistent myths. Many fruits and veggies like cucumbers, watermelon, strawberries, bell peppers, etc have high water content and are a great way to hydrate while also getting vital nutrients. Popsicles are also a good way to stay cool and hydrated and you can buy them or make your own with whatever ingredients you want; there are recipes online, including ones for electrolyte popsicles, but you can also just do basic ones with your choice of fruit juice and whatever you want to add, like chunks of fresh or frozen fruit.

Anyone who is telling you that you can ONLY drink plain water to stay hydrated is incredibly misinformed, even if they have experience with high temperatures.

the problem with getting kidnapped by jigsaw is that I'd probably get impatient and start going for it before the instructions played, and then if I learned I was doing it wrong I'd be too stubborn to change my methodology. so I'd be waving around my severed hand like "look, I did it" while he's just like "the key was in the dog. you had to eat the smelly dog to get the key."

queer muppet moments i would make happen if i was in charge of the muppets:

the electric mayhem (minus animal bcs hes their kid) arent a polycule, theyre monogamous. but specifically they break up and date each other one at a time. they have a chart.

animal is genderfluid. this is mentioned exactly once bcs kermit calls her he and she starts yelling "SHE/HER!" kermit corrects himself and the show goes on

rizzo made out with gonzo once but he still considers himself straight bcs gonzo is not a guy, he's a whatever. gonzo agrees with this

uncle deadly dated tim curry. it did not end well.

actual emotional scene of gonzo talking about how he feels abt gender. no jokes.

kermit: no matter what, gonzo is still gonzo, and we're always going to support gonzo no matter what gonzo decides- gonzo: kermit. i still use he/him

statler and waldorf wedding episode. theyre divorced by the next

beaker trying to ask bunsen out on a date. in the end it turns out bunsen thought they'd been dating for years.

miss piggy hanging out with drag queens

related, miss piggy starting to present butch and kermit being Really Into It. hes embarassed abt it

pepe begins a story with "when i was a little girl...."

janice decides to start using just she bcs "like, i could never be her"

rowlf mentions having a husband. even kermit is like "??? since when??!"

actually i change my mind. genderfluid animal is mentioned a second time when dr teeth is calling for instrument and mic checks, he turns to animal and yells "animal! pronoun check!" "HE/HIM" "alright!"

sometimes I have to stop myself from posting shit like "who made replacing a bike chain so erotic" because I remember the number of people who see my posts and I have to take a step back and reconsider my choices. sometimes I have to hide my true and sincere thoughts in a post about how I'm not posting them because it is funnier this way

[crabussy]

[crabussy]

whatever. it's just reaching between all its delicate parts to wrench out its guts with lots of sweating and straining. while it's upside down and immobilised. and then it's just taking the slick and shiny new chain and feeding it gently through gears and between metal before pulling it taut until the derailleur is extended and the chain clicks into place and can no longer be removed. I; think I'm bicycle. I mean bisexual

slowing intuiting the rules and goals of solitaire through trial and error on what the computer does and does not let me do rather than looking up the rules because it's a much funnier way to learn

[crabfisher]

just learned you can move cards between stacks. how lovely

[crabfisher]

i did it.

[dizzyhslightlyvoided]

Yay!

What have you learned about how solitaire works?

[crabfisher]

FIRST RULE OF SOLITAIRE: aces are useless. put them on the top right. SECOND RUE OF SOLITAIRE: two's are about as useless as aces. discard them to the ace pile as soon as possible THIRD RULE OF SOLITAIRE: it's hard. FOURTH RULE OF SOLITAIRE: it's really hard; FIFTH RUlE OF SOLITAIRE: you need to make the cards count down. But watch out. You must Alternate The Colours FOURTH RULE OF SOLITAIRE: make if you already have a red king and only have one more spot to add a king do not add another red king. You will lose. SIXTH RULE OF SOLITAIRE: make sure to do every possible move with cards already on the board before adding cards from your draw pile. You WILL screw yourself over SEVENTH RULE OF SOLITAIRE: good luck. Don't forget to beyourself and have fun

[crabfisher]

I don'te. Know

[bogwitch-extraordinaire]

I feel like it's important for the uninitiated to know that OP is playing solitaire on neopets

[boltlightning]

can everyone do me a favor and tell me your favorite thing to put on toast in the tags

[boltlightning]

i love this post so much. all the replies are like

"i'm so basic.....i just like a lot of butter or jam :(" (as though those are not god's best and most beloved condiments and his greatest gifts to mankind)

"FUCK health guidelines FUCK my cholesterol and most importantly FUCK diet culture i'll put a dumpster full of butter on my toast and not even GOD will stop me" (no notes. god would encourage this)

doxxing one's self by mention of polarizing regional delicacies (i am so curious about vegemite i must admit)

"does a grilled cheese count as toast?" (not for the purposes of this post)

"i don't like toast please don't kill me" (i appreciate the honesty but i fear this post is not for you)

people who put full ass meals on toast (based)

people who do not but eat toast as a full meal (based)

melty peanut butter (absolutely based)

"it's a guilty pleasure but...nutella 😳" (relieve yourself of fear and enjoy your dessert toast)

special shoutout to the pots-havers adding extra salt. also the one person who mentioned kaya. i see you and am in agreement

[tyke-dyke]

hey kiddos lets not dox ourselves like imbeciles on the internetz okay? ^_^

[tyke-dyke]

theyre so fucking dumb these days god

im going to bring this back

[tyke-dyke]

your birthday too.

dont reveal that shit

[tyke-dyke]

triggers too are a bad idea to reveal because not everyone is very niceys

and some people, surprisingly enough, are not going to be good people, and they might say mean stuff to you to make you mad and sad.

Dont reveal anything that will make it easier for you to be manipulated, or things that will make you an easy target

[tyke-dyke]

dont say what school you go to

[heywriters]

don't post pics of the exterior of your home

don't stream your walk home from school or work

don't share private info about OTHER people in relation to you (younger sibs, parents/partners in unique jobs, YOUR OWN CHILDREN, your neighbors, your coworkers, etc.)

don't give out your full name including middle names and suffixes like "Jr", e.g. things that can legally identify you

and for godssake NO SEXUAL INFO or PICS <<< this goes for minors, but the rest of you aren't suddenly safe from predators and consequences either!

stop giving away all the info that could hurt you to people you have never met and should not trust

BE - MORE - CAREFUL.

can we hurry up and make it legal to have boobs out in public it's been too hot outside lately

[sabertoothwalrus]

I do appreciate the sentiment but maybe I should rephrase:

can we hurry up and make it normalized to have boobs out in public so that even if it’s legal in your state you don’t risk get arrested anyway and you need to hire an attorney to point out that you were’t breaking any laws.

can we hurry up and make it normalized to have your boobs out in public so it’s weird that it’s legal in some places and not others.

can we hurry up and make it normalized to have your boobs out, like, in general, cause at the moment I have all male roommates who like the apartment 5 degrees hotter than I do and I’m the only one who can’t walk around shirtless!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[sabertoothwalrus]

I can’t be topless in public even if it’s legal cause some scandalized puritan is gonna put me on tiktok

[ashe-the-acorn]

I mean I hate to say it, but like, the only way to normalize it is to do it.

That's kinda how the puritanical culture works, it makes you feel shame to encourage you to not engage in behaviours. You have to just accept some people are miserable assholes with nothing better to do than shit on others over minor breaks in perceived social rules. Sadly there is no official form to fill out or something to make it "Accepted". You kinda have to just ignore them as best you can and encourage others to go out topless with you and just start normalizing it via doing it

[some-stars]

do you think "being arrested and having to fight an expensive legal battle, and also losing your job because someone put your boobs on tiktok" is the same as "miserable assholes with nothing better to do shitting on others"?

[ashe-the-acorn]

we're literally talking about places where it's explicitly legal if you read where OP already addressed that issue. Th only ramifications are social shame, which have to be overcome via direct action to fight them. Like I guess it gets annoying when people are like "Can't we just have all of society change in such a way I dot have to do any work or put myself at any risk and get all the benefit" like if not doing something out of fear of being shamed on tik tok for being visibly deviant from the norm was gonna stop me, then id never be openly trans and the bigots would win keeping me in the closet. Again it's one thing of you're in a place where you could be arrested for it but otherwise it's the most low effort kind of fighting back you can do, which is to literally just go be comfortable with yourself in public in spite of their efforts to make you feel like you don't belong.

[some-stars]

Do you think cops never arrest people who aren't actually breaking the law? Do you think losing your job is a "low effort" kind of activism? Have you ever been outside?

[ashe-the-acorn]

i do kinda get your point, but like again your only solution seem to be "Complain about it and do nothing". And again this is quite literally just asking you to fucking take off a shirt and live your life when it's perfectly legally allowed. I get wanting an ideal world without any external shame or judgement, but like you actually have to take tangible steps to get there and this one is largely just shame driven. Like to be real your're gonna get put on tik tok as a vibily trans woman in public too, like the moment you're not explicitly following puritanical gender roles you put yourself at that risk of exposure. That's the fact of life being a trans woman. So like if you're working for a job that's gonna fire you for being topless in public they'll probably fire you for wearing anything "revealing" in public that someone complains about and that's again an issue you're always gonna be at risk of encounting unless you decide to let the transphobes win and stay in the closet imo.

[sabertoothwalrus]

It’s not “perfectly legal” though.

When I was sent the article for Female Toplessness in the United States (which people pointed out would have been especially rude to send to someone that didn’t live here), I actually already had it pulled up. I live in California, so that was the first thing I checked. What I found was 1) even though it’s legal in the state of California, there are a lot of individual cities that still don’t allow it 2) the example I gave of “getting arrested anyway and needing to hire en attorney to prove in court that you were not breaking any laws” was not a hypothetical, that happened in LA:

One of my aforementioned male roommates is an influencer. I could potentially be humiliated online just for being topless in the living room. One of my other roommates is my brother.

Am I not allowed to complain that it’s hot out and I want to take my shirt off without being told I need to be a better activist?

the charm of the great chain of things is that you'll see reptile keeper circles recommending isopods as a cleanup crew in your enclosures and then you'll go look into isopods and there is a whole separate community where their main event is the isopods themselves and pet isopod care and they recommend also keeping springtails as a cleanup crew for the isopods and you look into springtails and there is a whole separate community where their main event is the springtails and they're posting photos of springtails and going They're soooooo cuuuute
