As a Boromir lover what is you thoughts on Faramir? The lesser brother.

I thought Denethor died, but here he is sending me asks

[littlefingies]

I don't know how to make this not sound mean but I'm not trying to be mean, so please know that going in.

Listening to a podcast about bodies and eating disorders and the body positivity movement of the last decade ish and hearing someone say (paraphrasing from memory here) "body positivity was all capitalism, there were no legislative changes, just new brands of jeans"

Legislative changes are super important but I cannot emphasize enough that jeans coming in bigger sizes and fat-friendly cuts is actually a really big deal! With meaningful impacts on people's lives (including mine)! Fat people do need clothes! And you may not realize this, but if you're over a certain size (that's not even that big a size) there's a very good chance you can go to a big box store and *not find anything that fits you*. There are towns in the US where if you're over a size 18 you need to drive an hour away or shop online to get things in your size. And they're expensive! "Just buy used" if they even have your size! Fat people want to look nice too. And we face enough judgement during job interviews (to give one example) without trying to do it in clothes that don't fit or are super uncomfortable.

Actually: If you're fat and you want to look cute/hot/masc/femme/etc I cannot recommend this website enough, you put in your measurements and it lists what brands have your size. You can filter for stuff like sensory friendly, nonbinary, masc, organic, etc. It's not AI just a database.

Twice a year in Hawaii the sun passes directly overhead and objects cast no shadow. It’s a phenomenon called “Lahaina Noon”

[phoenix-theurge]

You're full of shit, Hawaiians are just able to levitate coconut milk.

Day 23 of Inception 30 Day Challenge

23. Is ‘Eames’ his real name?

To me every headcanon about Eames’ name is so valid. I love all of them. I love that they are all existing at the same time.

Is it his mother’s maiden name? Yes.

Is it his childhood nickname? Also Yes.

Is it his last name and you have fun ideas his first name? Good on you that’s such a brilliant take.

Is it a new name he chose for himself after he broke off the contact to his family? Absolutely, you are correct.

Is it an unusual first name? You’re so right bestie, that’s exactly what it is.

Is he a descendant of royalty and made an anagram of the first letters of his numerous names and titles? He 100% did that.

Give me all the headcanons.

I think at bare minimum all medical professionals need to make sure they are treating patients with more kindness and respect than grifters. if you go to a doctor and they treat you like shit, humiliate you, and send you home without any information on your body or access to treatment, then health-grifters' offers will start to feel more tempting by simply giving the most basic performance of taking you seriously and caring about your well-being. grifters should be condemned for manipulating and exploiting sick people, and doctors also play a role in whether grifts thrive or are successfully identified and rejected. genuine baseline human respect, and beginning a relationship with a patient by earning (rather than demanding) trust, goes a long way.

I talk about this all the time with respect to clinical psychology, especially regarding how marginalized communities have been treated by my field. We have a pattern of the following happening over and over again:

The academic or medical institution does something incredibly fucked up and dehumanizing to a group of people who already experience marginalization, often as a continuation and tool of hegemonic societal norm enforcement.

The community understandably does not trust the people doing science about the topic impacting their health. Future research is hard to conduct because scientists/doctors/whatever don’t have the trust of the community. (Note: I want to emphasize that this makes sense and is likely to be adaptive as a means of protecting the community’s safety)

Grifters and snake oil salesmen pay lip service to the very real harm caused by scientific and medical institutions, but weaponize that acknowledgement to take advantage of the community’s desire for healing. Even well-intentioned practitioners outside of the academy/medical institution start providing interventions that don’t work (or are actively harmful) because they’ve been told that it’s the best way to care for the marginalized community.

The members of the community get worse care. Snake oil salesmen get rich. Science can’t happen, even when a few members of said marginalized group fight their way up the ranks of the institution in order to right the wrongs of the past and do scientifically informed work to help their community.

It sucks and I don’t know what to do about it. I say this as a member of a marginalized group trying to conduct research that improves the lives of my community. A community that’s been repeatedly exploited and harmed by medical and psychological institutions.

more orgs need actual webpages. i shouldn't have to log in or create an instagram account to find out when your meeting is

When the pairing is so good that it doesn’t matter if you see it as romantic or platonic. What matters is that you see them and know that one is not complete without the other. Frequently bought together. Do not separate. If you separate them one of them will bite you

there seems to be a fundamental disagreement between microwave oven manufacturers and the producers of microwave meals over whether the customer should know the wattage of their microwave or if such details should be abstracted away from them

[toroidalearthtruther]

the microwave rice demands 800 watts of power for 2 minutes, but all the microwave can offer me three settings: one low, one high, and one somewhere in the middle. I turn it to the one in the middle as I happen to know 800W is the average power of most microwaves. the light comes on and the bag of rice starts slowly turning, but rather than hearing the usual rumble of the microwave, I instead start hearing short snippets of conversation - words snatched from the ether. the lights flicker and a chill runs up my spine. the voices remind me of those "spirit boxes" ghost hunters use. I double check the setting on the microwave. "ah," I say, remembering that I had set it to medium,
