Weird peeve time. Calling lab grown gemstones "fake" is stupid because it's the same shit just not formed naturally. An artificially grown diamond is the same shit as a natural diamond it is the exact same material bro it's all fuckign carbon

[tlirsgender]

It's carbon it's pretty and it didn't involve slave labor what's not to love??? Hi I'm having geology opinions tonight apparently. And I'm right

[tlirsgender]

There is so much bullshit in the diamonds industry to be mad about tbh. It also ties into the bullshit of the wedding industry as a whole but we don't have the time to unpack all that

[val-ritz]

not even going to lie, the day i learned i could get like 15 lab grown rubies the size of dimes for $20 is the day i spent $20 on rubies, and i have never once said to myself "man, i wish this cost $1,600 and the lives of eight children to produce"

We are a pro-lab-grown mineral blog here, not only is it massively cheaper but massively more ethical as well in many cases.

Fuck the diamond industry my fae ass gets its shinies by way of science which is basically just magic we can explain

In the original myths, Sirens offered the lure of knowledge, not sex or lust.

 Update this by having modern Sirens attract prey by offering students free textbooks for their course.

A Siren sidles up to someone doing research in the library and says she knows how to get a free version of the article they’re looking for.

[skadisprawl]

So, sirens are just librarians now? Is that what you’re telling me?

[mikkeneko]

I think the takeaway is rather that librarians have always been sirens.

[whetstonefires]

this led me to picture all libraries having a section with just. no floor. where if you get focused enough on Getting To The Books you walk out onto the No Floor and fall into the. basement????

and somehow the librarians profit.

i’m not 100% on the motives of sirens in general for drowning people but the idea that the librarians eat you if you fall into the basement seems to track.

Hello I have a riveting article about the niche interest you love down here in my basement wall

Tumblr can’t be swapped for other social media website because Tumblr is the only one whose whole base humor is derived from the art of pretending to be a dumbass.

Like if you get a fact wrong on Reddit, the “well actually” crowd will ooze from their mansplainer holes and I think if you pull that shtick on Twitter someone will use it to win a political argument against you that you weren’t even a part of.

Only on Tumblr can you start a sentence with “well sweaty I have 9 Ph.D. :))” and immediately have the upper hand over any clown trying to reasonably correct you.

Wow, I'd love to sit on a rooftop or a fire escape or in the branches of a tall pine tree with you, watching a thunderstorm roll in the distance, my hand in yours. As the world rages around us, we experience it from above. We exist in that moment and That moment only for the rest of time. That would be quite nice while we exist in these human forms.
