ATTENTION ALL HOMOPHOBIC PARENTS

This–

–is not going away.

You can try all you want to get rid of it.

You can try to demand the network takedown shows that allow this.

You can try to ban your children from watching those shows.

You can even try to take the TV away and demand your children read a book.

But here’s what you can’t take away.

You’ve told your kids their entire life that this is wrong, perverted, and disgusting. The worst part being that your kid is even like the characters above.

But for a brief moment, they were told the opposite was true.

They were told that there is nothing wrong with who they are or who they like.

They were told that this one thing about them doesn’t change who they are.

They were told that in this dumpster fire of a planet, that they are not alone.

And at that moment, they are happy and at peace.

And you can’t take that away.

Again, you can try, and for a while, it might seem like you succeeded.

But your child will always come back to that moment.

Hell, your child might even make stories of their own, featuring characters that can give the same feeling they felt all those years ago.

And kids who will see those characters will continue to make more themselves.

To make others feel like they are heard in a way they never did before seeing some goofy cartoon aimed at children.

And that’s why this isn’t going away.

No matter how badly you want it to.

‘Rat Park’ -Stuart McMillen

You’ll never think about drug addiction the same way again after reading this comic.

[elodieunderglass]

What I found absolutely impressive and stunning about this comic is the way the artist explained the identification and elimination of the confounding factors in the Rat Park study. This is one of the hardest parts of experiments to explain to the public, and I think it was just brilliantly done.

[jenroses]

This is one of the most important pieces of research done in the last 50 years. 

[wrigglesandgiggles-deactivated2]

Read this!

[jerichocaine]

A beautiful experiment and so simply explained for even the most naive layman to understand. I love it.

If he didn’t want his head to be smashed in he should have worn a football helmet

Really he was ASKING for it

This guy was BEGGING to get smashed in the head with a baseball bat

Men need to take responsibility for their own behaviour that leads to them getting smashed in the head by baseball bats

[shadow27]

Did he say he didn’t wan’t to be smashed in the head with a baseball bat? Men change their mind about being smashed in the head with a baseball bat all the time. It’s just baseball bat remorse.  And can we stop talking about him? Really isn’t the woman with the bat the real victim here? What about innocent until proven guilty? Can’t we have some due process?

[thefingerfuckingfemalefury]

This man SAYS that a woman smashed him in the head with a baseball bat but men lie about this stuff all the time

[theconcealedweapon]

She was unsure if he would like it. He gave mixed signals.

I ALWAYS WANTED THIS

Fun fact, this may actually account for many of the “imaginings” we have of extinct animals.

I had a molecular biology professor who referred it to “vacuum packing” where many extinct animals are rendered slimmer or muscular than they may have been, since things like body fat and fur are not preserved during fossilization. So our view of animals like dinosaurs may be entirely inaccurate.

There’s actually a book, All Yesterdays, in which the artist, CM Koseman, draws modern animals as we might have interpreted them to look if we found them extinct the same way do dinosaurs.

Fun examples include:

The manatee

An elephant

Swans

And literally the picture of the hippo

[the-cosmic-goddess-deactivated2]

Another funny thing to add to this…because of how fossils are formed, it’s possible we don’t know what type of dinosaurs were different species or the same species.  If we compare the skeletons to modern animals, snake skeletons often look pretty much the same so if all snakes were extinct we may believe they were all one species of animal instead of hundreds.  Meanwhile, all dog breeds are considered the same species Canis lupus familiaris (technically domestic dogs are a subspecies of Canus lupus, the Grey Wolf, but you get what I mean) despite their skeletons being drastically different from each other (compare a pug skull to a great dane and to a poodle…they’ll look different).

So, if all snakes were mistaken for being only a small handful of species and modern dogs could be mistaken for a BUNCH of unique different species…think about how that knowledge can reflect onto our current understanding of extinct animals.
