Mildly Interesting Dump #5

I have a hereditary gap in my eyebrow

These three ceiling fans run off of one motor

The picture of the Japanese movie advertisement is printed on two sides of the newspaper, so the full picture could be seen under light 

The perfect symmetry of this plant 

Shadow and slope makes it look like he’s floating

This tiny ceiling tile at my house

My broken antenna on my car looks like a half sunken boat.

The shower in my hotel has a little cutout so you can turn it on before getting in.

I drew poppy outlines for my class to cut out - they look like they overlap but don’t.

The golf balls at the mini golf on this pier are biodegradable and fall into the sea at the 18th hole 

Our refrigerator has revolving levels so you can reach everything easily

This window that makes my back yard look like it’s in 4 different seasons 

This one dude in the crowd in a neon shirt. 

The way this picture of a frozen puddle in my backyard looks like a landscape from the perspective of a plane.

Modern tomato vs one grown from 150yo seeds 

My neighbors are moving their entire house back 200ft.

This door in my hotel bathroom can close off either of 2 doorways.

Our dog’s paw looks like a mini-version of him 

This dead straight line of bubbles in my beer 

This “where are you from” map at The Aurora Museum in Reykjavík Iceland 

You can see the number eight between the diamonds on this 8 card.

I made a piano shelf

This purely golden bee landed on my car today

A DHS worker and the actual federal government got involved with my family and after deciding they don't like that I live with 2 different men, informed me the kids are going to be punished until we change something.

Y'all. What the fuck do I do now?

[firebreathingbibliophile]

Me? Name my children names that solidify my witch status?

Absolutely.

Shoutout to the U.S. embassies in Austria, Chile, India, and South Korea who have directly ignored orders from the Trump administration in flying the pride flag

[bendingsignpost]

They’ve found really clever workarounds, as they were banned from flying the pride flag on the flag pole. 

They aren’t ignoring orders: they are obeying the orders to the exact letter.

[purple-beard]

Malicious compliance

[leondaniel]

Also in Mexico City they couldn’t fly the flag but they didn’t said anything about a picture of a flying flag ❤️

My advice to you is that if you wanna do something totally different and reinvent a little part of yourself but you’re afraid people will think you’re trying too hard: just do it anyway.

In high school there was a girl who wore heels every single day and I was so envious. I wanted to wear heels but I was a huge tomboy growing up and no one thought of me as feminine and I was worried people would think I was being “fake,” or trying too hard.

But one day I wore a pair and I got a lot of remarks, not all of them nice. And then I wore another and another until one day a girl said to me “I wish I could wear heels like you and [the girl I envied] but I couldn’t pull it off.”

And I realized I’d become known for wearing heels and it was just a thing I did now and nobody questioned it.

I know this is such a small thing but I have held on to this lesson throughout my young adulthood because it’s proven true again and again with bigger things like my career and my sexuality

When you first step out of the idea of yourself other people have accepted or invented and express a part of you that they don’t know, it’s scary. People like to think they know you you, and challenging their perception of you threatens them.

That doesn’t mean you don’t deserve to express who you are.

You’re not fake or trying too hard just because you decide to share a new side of yourself!!!

[grlizzybear]

This!

I also heard somewhere that often times the more you procrastinate on something, the more that thing probably threatens your perception of yourself. Like that thing would mean reinventing a bigger piece of yourself.

Idk how true it is, but since I heard that if I find myself procrastinating on something, instead of getting angry at myself or labeling myself as lazy, I try to reconcile the shift in identity. Ex. ‘I don’t have to whine about chores like a teenager now, I can take pride in making my home look good’ or ‘Even though I have never finished a project like this myself before, doesn’t mean I can’t.’ or ‘i have always thought of exercise as a gym rat thing, but it is really just an important slice of any well-balanced life’

It is not a magic bullet to suddenly get everything done, but I have found that it helps chip away at barriers to improve habits. Also it helps prevent the shame loop of ‘i didn’t do the thing’ -> ‘i am bad for not doing the thing’ -> ‘i end up procrastinating on doing a thing because i think of myself as someone who is bad and doesn’t do things’ -> ‘i don’t do more things’.

I am so glad the new thing is to not get married and have kids. Does wonders for my anxiety.

[vampirefunkmetal]

for those of you who are confused abt the colours in the bisexual pride flag:

the pink represents attraction to same/similar genders the blue represents attraction to genders different from ones own and the purple represents donatello, the best ninja turtle

Yesterday was a big day. 10 year wedding anniversary with Matty and 13 weeks pregnant with this baby, which delighted Ona because I've had 2 miscarriages recently. We all did a lot of celebrating.
