I have been in multiple situations where a friend group I'm not so familiar with starts making jokes about being into weirdo pervert stuff and there is a slight edge of competition to who is The Most Freakish I know for a goddamn fact that I have everyone beat in the pervert department but I can't say anything because they're probably just talking about light BDSM at most and I like things that are complete social suicide in 90% of spaces

like oh when you like puppyplay and choking its subversive and edgy but when I talk about getting my sexual awakening at 8 years old from the really fucking weird plant vore sequence in the third ice age movie it's WEIRD and EMBARRASSING i see how it is,

[sawed-on-shotgun]

oh so this post stops getting notes when I make that addition, i see how it is,

I do think "literally zero evidence indicates that gatekeeping medical transition does anything to prevent regret, but the harm done by gatekeeping is extensively documented" is a much stronger argument than "regret isn't real" cause there's always going to be some anecdote that puts you in a weak-looking rhetorical position for the latter, but the former is pretty unassailable.

absolutely dying laughing at the new werewolf video!!!! spengela being insane and antagonizing each other the whole game (& rayne’e edit of “kiss” made me HOWL). “i tried to tell angela about the movie red eye and she got so mad” and “JCS is my favorite musical” and “i was pitching this to angela”. shayncer saying the SAME joke MULTIPLE times and muttering one that only the other catches/reacts to. elyse, comedy sniper genius, derailing everything at every chance she gets, having stupid sidebars with shayne constantly. shayne never reeling her back & always making it worse. angela being the most locked in out of everyone (rare occurrence) but also still not completely understanding shit. james’ weird eye bit and correcting all of elyse’s incorrect facts. background/crew laughs the entire time. chanse being sorta normal except for “ballsacks have seams?” and “did the gods make centaurs or was it from a horse fucking a person?” and “oh i thought you meant hitchcock the will smith movie” and “wait, what is demolition man?” (elyse whispering “gay werewolf!”). angela zoning out and staring at the camera every time the nerds were talking… <3

everyone writes about the bad kids + co sharing clothes but i need to see them stealing clothes from each other immediately

fabian full on tackling kristen in the courtyard outside of school cuz she showed up wearing the dance pants he bought two days ago and hasn’t even gotten to wear yet

war of the bomber jacket in mordred because the girls got it at the thrift store together but couldn’t decide who actually saw it first so it keeps getting stolen back and forth until it goes missing entirely, riz wearing it the next day

gorgug has lost all of his hoodies. he will take them back if he sees his friends wearing them becuase they are his and he needs them back.

adaine: no gorgug my backpack is the normal amount of full no i am not opening it. it’s all spell components. you cannot check.

gorgug, hoodieless and moments from raging: fine.

just. the beauty of friends stealing from each other

Dogs serve as a kind of virtue eater for Americans to pour all of their kindness into without the risk of improving society or being nice to someone with any agency

i spot a plus size honey across the bar and start to chat her up until her bisexual boyfriend with a magic the gathering tattoo comes over and starts yelling at me so i turn him sideways so he can't make another action until his next turn

How to spot AI Hallucinations like a Reference Librarian (originally on Substack)

Library Freedom Project has a lot of handouts about AI on their Resources page

This is relevant to art also because it is becoming increasingly difficult to find reference images online during simple searches.

I based this on a comic I saw on tumblr and obviously on the characters and setting of the "Pretty Pretty Please I Don't Want To Be A Magical Girl" pilot animatic by Kiana Khansmith.

(For some reason YouTube links don’t get traction on tumblr, so let’s see if this works!)
