Having met people who genuinely and obnoxiously "love animals more than people" and are horribly shitty to other people because of it, they generally aren't liked by animals either. Animals know a bitch when they see one.

Yes, your dentist can absolutely tell if you masturbated at home before your appointment. And in fact, a shower and change of clothes does little to hide this. The best step forward is to apologize to your dentist for masturbating.

Frankly, I think companies presenting basic health and consumer safety information as "boring," "uncool," and "not worth your care" should carry a hefty fine based on the revenue that company generates

You can make a movie with where the only white character is a man named Ray Cism whose one line of his 16 seconds of screen time is “I seriously hate women and minorities.” and you’ll find fifty bajillion reader x Ray Cism fanfics and renaissance style drawings of him with a halo of golden light

It is actually a huge red flag when people list their goldstone or opalite pieces as "natural." These are glass gemstones, completely man-made, and anyone trying to sell them as a "natural" stone is either lying to customers or doesn't know enough about how their own products are being sourced and produced.

I was once in a tourist trap adjacent rock shop and spotted some little pieces of very pretty blue aventurine (goldstone) glass. (There is also a natural rock called aventurine. That's an entirely different thing.) By sheer coincidence I had been reading about the history and production of aventurine recently, so I excitedly picked up a piece and started telling my friend about it. It's cool stuff! Metal oxides are mixed into the glass at extremely high temperatures, then kept in a low oxygen environment, allowing tiny crystals of metal to precipitate out throughout the glass. The type of oxide determines the color. Copper makes the golden-reddish classic goldstone, while cobalt, manganese, and chromium make blue, purple, and green. (The latter three are all typically extremely dark, and "blue" aventurine often looks like an incredibly deep black.) Though the process we know was invented in Venice in the 17th century, examples of aventurine dating back as far as the 13th or 12th have been found in Persia, where it was apparently used to make Islamic prayer/protection amulets.

Anyway I'm in the middle of yammering about this when I realize the woman at the checkout counter, who I believe also owns the place, is glaring daggers at me. I am autistic. I am not good at noticing or correctly identifying death glares. This was obvious enough for me to pick up. I falter to an awkward stop, midsentence, and there is a moment of dead silence.

Then she snaps, "well the copper is natural. It has the natural properties of copper."

(Again, it was blue, so it actually had "the natural properties" of cobalt, whatever that means. Mostly it is glass, and has the properties of glass.)

I wasn't insulting the aventurine! I was being very enthusiastic about it! If anything I was doing an impromptu sales pitch, pointing out how the irregularly distributed glittering crystals in the blue-black glass created a sense of depth that made it look like stars in a low-light night sky, talking about how difficult it is to make and what an interesting history it has! But she was so mad.

Aside from being kinda scummy, it's just sad. Aventurine glass is such a cool material, and it's beautiful. People should be able to appreciate it for what it is.

Highlighting that this is “considered quite rare” but in actuality we have absolutely no idea how common this, or indeed a great many variants in sexual development, are. Because if it’s not visible from the outside then we only learn about it if doctors (or coroners) go looking, and doctors only go looking if it’s causing a problem.

I swear to fucking god. I would claw out OneDrive from my computer if I could. I would burn down their servers if I could. I would run down their stocks to the ground if I could. I hope every single one of their workers gets a better offer from a competitor in the next 24 hours. I hope every single one of their light bulbs explodes at the same time. I hope every single carton of milk in their fridge will always be expired.

Stop backing up my fucking files.

Stop asking me to back up my fucking files.

Stop taking my fucking files off my fucking computer.

I don't want a fucking reminder in three fucking days. Let me fucking say no.

Fuckers.
