Rosencrantz and Guildenstern Are Dead (1990)
Tell me why I can’t stop thinking about them
you literally have shitty hide armor and a dull ass shortsword. let me guess. your loot is 6 gold coins too? 🙄
friendly fucking reminder do NOT post about your lootdrops publicly!!! this post is a great example of "table baiting" to get you to reveal what valuables you drop on death WHICH IS OBVIOUSLY PUTTING YOU AT RISK OF FARMING!!! think for a second and be safe out there!!
I travel to France quite often, but I have a special love for the south and its lavender fields. Whenever I think of France, those endless purple landscapes are the first thing that comes to mind. I’m sure there are lavender fields in other regions too, but it’s the ones in the south that have stayed with me the most.Three years ago, I traveled through southern France, visiting Montpellier and several beautiful towns along the coast. I also visited a monastery, wandered through the lavender fields, and came home with hundreds of photographs that I later shared on my social media.Some time later, those memories inspired this painting. Of course, I didn’t paint the scene exactly as I saw it. I made the colors richer, the sunset brighter, and the atmosphere more expressive. That’s what I love about Impressionism—it isn’t about copying reality perfectly, but about capturing an emotion. Perhaps this wasn’t the exact feeling I had at that moment, but it’s the emotion that remained with me as a beautiful memory of that journey.
my brother and I get on bandcamp and click on songs from the live updating list of albums that are selling and we listen to 30 seconds or so of a song and if we like it we add it to a playlist. and we call this "foraging for music."
anyways one of terminology we have coined to talk about music is "Knee Music" which is derived from the fact that album covers that show a person's knees tend to sound the same as each other. It's kind of a sleepy, grungy indie folk pop sound with youthful-sounding, vocals that affect a candid and vulnerable feeling.
or anyway we found multiple album covers with knees in quick succession, and they all sounded the same, hence "Knee Music"
but it doesn't have to be knees to be Knee Music. any kind of blurry, candid-looking photos that include skinny white people is likely to be knee music
My other brother's method of foraging for music is slightly more complicated: he gets on everynoise and uses random number generators to get a random genre, a random artist, and then a random song from that artist.
For a while, his method was slightly different, instead choosing a random genre and listening to it until he found a song from that genre that he liked.
However, this could be very time-consuming. once he became trapped for a long time in "geek rap" which was mostly a lot of people rapping in potentially spanish or portuguese (?) about Five Nights at Freddy's
*Columbo voice* So you were reading posts on Tumblr? Oh, that's a great website. My wife has an account on there. She showed me one about the color of the sky? Funny stuff. Although there is one thing, sir. How could you have been reading a post when no one on Tumblr has any media literacy?
oh yes, i remember now. i was reading my own post i had just written. i'm a stickler for the details you know. here you can even see the time stamp indicating the moment of posting. clearly i was busy elsewhere when the murder happened now if you'll excuse me, there's a callout post i've been meaning to tend to
That explains it, sir. You know, at the station they always tell me I sweat the little stuff too much. But that must be how you have... what is it, sir? 500 followers? Very impressive. Well, I'll get out of your hair. Wouldn't want to get in the way of social justice. Oh, there is one more thing. There's this tag on the bottom of your post. Is that what you call those? Tags? I wonder where you get a name like that. Anyway, I didn't understand it. It says "queue be continued". I hope I pronounced that right. What does that mean, sir?
(hesitantly) that would be the tag i use to indicate a post was reblogged through the queue system to post at a later time, but you knew that already, didn't you?
(confidently now) yes the post was in my queue originally. i had reblogged it at the time to make some additions adn fix a few mistakes. my "keep tags!" xkit add-on must have put the tag there and i simply forgot to remove it, that is all there is to it
These tags are so correct
why is this more expressive than the entire lion king cgi movie
h-how did you have the exact gif…….who are you
letting family members sit in for dead senators is just monarchy logic im appalled that this has even happened before
Each state gets to decide how their state is represented in Congress
This has been a common method for a long time in some states
The idea is that a Senator's sibling/spouse/parent/child knows their intentions and policies better than a political rival or a random person would. It's a pretty good way to prevent political assassinations tbh
An unelected individual getting grandfathered into a real political position due to their blood or legal relationship with a deceased elected official is not pretty good actually
the only way to get non sports fans into the world cup is the miku custody battle

PTSD? You got pussy taste speldiferous disorder???
i don’t even know what to say here.
you know what. yes. i do got pussy taste splendiferous disorder.
my ability to take this 🫢 emoji seriously has been obliterated by that one image
getting this image beamed into my head psionically whenever i see it used in any context
picklesbaseball
so the context is that it was "Heated Rivalry theme night" & we also gotta talk about the Fox News article on this. expected amount of homophobia but you just gotta laugh
With families in attendance Tuesday night, the Pickles decided to honor the HBO show by creating a script where a pitcher hits a batter. The batter charged the mound, and with little kids watching, the two men embrace and start kissing. At least one little girl can be seen covering her eyes as the men kiss. Meanwhile, in Philly, sane America was celebrating with a Sandlot tribute and Ray Charles singing "America the Beautiful." The divide between sane America and the demented America that Portland wants to export across this country can't be any clearer. This isn't about two men kissing. This is about taking one of the final wholesome places left for families — the Pickles are holding a Fart Night this Friday night — and turning it into a LIB stunt factory where kids are subjected to the Alphabet Mafia's whims. [...] "Little girl in the background immediately, instinctively, and rightly, covers her eyes. Everyone knows this s–t is wrong but white liberal women keep forcing it into ever(y) facet of our lives. Fatigue," wrote a Twitter user. That was immediately countered by the typical lunatics who want to normalize this spectacle. "You mean like any little kid does when they see two people kissing..? They find all kissing gross. Gtfo here with your bigotry," the lunatic replied.
me personally i think demented america is the only america worth loving, and next the MLB should require every team engage in competitive gay sex bare ass naked on the field in front of thousands. only then will our sick liberal thirst for power be satisfied
apparently the pitcher is gay in real life tho!!! legend shit this must have been so fun for him. also he's hot as fuck. only gay men should be allowed to play baseball actually
"Guess I can check off 'making out on the diamond during a professional baseball game' from my list," the gay pitcher, who goes by J.P. Hardy, wrote to his fans on Instagram Story.
it is truly wild that people will say "if you think trans men are in a materially different class under patriarchy than cis men, you must not think they are real men!" with full earnestness and not realize what it is they are actually saying.
idk my friend, if you need to pretend that trans men don't have materially different experience of patriarchy & are classed differently under patriarchy than cis men, in order to see trans men's manhood as real? i don't think your line of thinking is much different than TERFs who stubbornly refuse to admit that trans women are also have a materially different experience of patriarchy & are classed differently than cis men.
in both cases, rather than acknowledging how the cissexism in feminism has led to the erasure of how fundamental queerphobia and transphobia is to upholding patriarchy, you are clinging to that very cissexism, and privileging the experiences of cis people over trans people and basically blatantly stating that it is the experiences of cis people which define what it means to be a "real" man or woman.
except at least TERFs are being transphobic on purpose; you are trying to act like the real transphobia is acknowledging that. being trans matters when it comes to gender in society???????? this is what happens when you only care about the trans-exclusive part of being anti-TERF and not the radical-feminist part.
Access to gender-affirming care (GAC) varied across gender identity when comparing trans men to AFAB nonbinary individuals (Table 2.5). For example, both groups highly desired top surgery; however, trans men were significantly more likely to have already undergone the procedure (32%) compared to AFAB nonbinary individuals (10%). Both groups also showed interest in hysterectomies, though access again differed, as 10% of trans men had undergone a hysterectomy, while only 2% of AFAB nonbinary individuals had. Overall, this indicates that while transgender men and AFAB nonbinary individuals often seek similar forms of care, nonbinary individuals experience a larger gap between desiring a procedure and receiving it, possibly due to systemic barriers or variations in how medical providers approach nonbinary transition-related care.
When comparing across gender, some similarities exist between transgender women and AMAB nonbinary individuals in their desires for certain procedures (Table 2.7). For instance, both groups wanted laser hair removal at high prevalences (54% of trans women and 58% of AMAB nonbinary individuals). However, transgender women were far more likely to have undergone the procedure (40%) compared to AMAB nonbinary individuals (15%), suggesting a greater gap between desire and access. In contrast, desires for surgical procedures diverge between trans women and AMAB nonbinary respondents. Trans women wanted vaginoplasty at much higher prevalences than AMAB nonbinary individuals (48% vs. 17%), and a substantially larger percentage of trans women already had the procedure (11% vs. 1%). These findings highlight that gender-affirming needs are not uniform across gender identity.
from the USTS 2022 Health & Wellness report, pages 47 & 49
^ also from the 2022 USTS. & from the 2015 USTS:
Seventy-eight percent (78%) of respondents wanted to receive hormone therapy at some point in their life, but only 49% of respondents have ever received it. Ninety-two percent (92%) of those who have ever received hormone therapy were currently still receiving it, representing 44% of all respondents. A large majority of transgender men and women (95%) have wanted hormone therapy, compared to 49% of non-binary respondents. Transgender men and women were about five times more likely to have ever had hormone therapy (71%) than non-binary respondents (13%)
& note that all of this comes from 2022 (& 2015), so does not represent the full impact of more recent anti-trans legal attacks.
For these questions, respondents could choose one option between:
Had it but not for gender identity/ transition
Have had it
Want it some day
Not sure if I want this
Do not want this
The charts above only seem to consider "desire it" or "have had it" as far as I can tell, so we do not know the difference in how many nonbinary people were unsure vs how many binary people. It seems like a sizeable amount of people of both assignments selected "unsure" for many options. The numbers below reflect the average between both trans wo/men and nonbinary respondents of either AGAB:
Respondents were asked a series of questions about whether they had received or wanted to have specific surgical and other procedures, separate from gender-affirming hormone therapy. Respondents selected if they wanted to receive questions about procedures or surgeries for those assigned female at birth (such as chest surgery or metoidioplasty) or questions about procedures or surgeries for those assigned male at birth (such as breast augmentation or vaginoplasty). Respondents who indicated they were born with a variation in physical sex characteristics or described themselves as intersex were able to select either set of questions or a third option that included questions about both types of procedures and surgeries. Eighty-four percent (84%) of respondents indicated that they desired one or more transition-related procedures or surgeries, separate from gender-affirming hormone therapy. Thirty-one percent (31%) reported receiving one or more of these procedures or surgeries.
On top of that, there's also the fact that just asking a question like "do you want vaginoplasty" can remove a lot of important nuance. Penis-preserving vaginoplasty is much harder to get & many people don't even know its an option; treating all vaginoplastys as basically the same (or phallo/meta for that matter) might mean losing sight of such differences. Similarly, nulloplasty/nullification surgery was not mentioned, and neither was penectomy for those assigned male (whereas someone with a vagina seeking nullification could at leas select "vaginectomy"). Similarly, nullification surgery suffers from a lack of awareness amongst those who might benefit, and far more difficulty in finding information and a surgeon and getting it paid for.
