Please go learn how time works.

Anything that claims that it can sort all humans into neat categories is bullshit, sorry to say. The sex binary, the gender binary, astrology, MBTI, love languages, whatever. Humans are hugely complex and unique and not a single person on this earth can be accurately described using simple terms like that.

"alive" and "dead"

("dead" can be temporary if you have enough electicity (defibrillator) and vile humours (adrenalin), not whatever victor frankenstein was doing)

my neighbour stopped me when I was taking out my recycling, and said "when I park in front of your driveway and block it, and you leave a note on my car that reads 'please don't block my driveway', it makes me really mad." and I was just nodding like oh okay. yeah? huh.

he brought up that I should feel indebted to him bc he ‘cleared my driveway’ with his leaf blower, but what actually happened is that he gathered every leaf from both of our properties and piled it in a calf-high mass at the bottom of my front steps, which I had to wade through to exit my house. I genuinely thought he did this as a calculated attack. it did not occur to me that it was a good deed.

We visited the Black Loyalist Heritage Centre today, which tells the story of the Black Loyalists in Nova Scotia. The museum used to be housed in the wee schoolhouse, but in 2015 (I think it was), they got a lovely new building. The windows are inscribed with the names of the Black Loyalists, and they also have a digital copy of the Book of Negros (that is its name), which listed all of the Black Loyalists evacuated from the newly created United States. Of course, the main reason they did this was to provide compensation to slave owners who's property had escaped to the British.😑

For a few years, Birchtown was the largest free Black community in North America, but after a hard few years approximately a third of the population chose to migrate to Sierra Leone, where their descendants are still known as Nova Scotians.

Anyway, that's a super condensed history of the Black Loyalists. The centre is a little off the beaten path, but it's worth going to if you're down around the Southern Shore.

And because I hit the 10 image limit

The Black Loyalist Heritage Society also looks after the 19th century schoolhouse that used to hold the museum, a recreated pit house, of the type the Black Loyalists would have lived in (currently closed for repairs), a church, and the Black Loyalist burial ground.

"being a human is so boring why can't I be one of the COOL animals" okay hey. I hear you. but I actually really super love being an omnivorous persistence hunting primate with a stomach capable of dissolving many literal poisons and the ability to smell geosmin (released in the soil after it rains) at five parts per trillion. I super enjoy being a bipedal terrifyingly agile mammal with some of the most efficient sweat glands in the animal kingdom. I find a lot of joy in being an endotherm with mimicry abilities that rival most other animals with vocal chords. it's sick as hell I'm having a lot of fun

Sounds like what a shape-shifting non-human would say.

I'm a normal human person I literally cut my fingernails and laugh at jokes like a regular human. I'm a member of the species Homo sapiens and I have been since the day I was spawned

The crazy thing is, ninety-nine times out of a hundred, if you asked me on any given day "Would like to see a picture of some genitals?" my answer would be "😰 No, that's... No, thank you. I'm okay, actually." I have nothing but the utmost respect for people who do engage with the penis side of the internet, but personally, I've spent the better part of two decades doing all I can NOT to have pictures of dick and balls or sexy bikini babe buttcheeks blasted onto my retinas constantly. And yet... to be denied the penis? To have a jumped up pile of javascript tell me, a grown adult with an air fryer and an outstanding council tax bill, that I cannot be trusted to withstand the sight of a bare nipple unless I let it scan my drivers' license? I will move heaven and earth to see that fucking nipple, friend. I will walk a thousand miles barefoot on hot coals before I give you big brother bitches my passport number. A thousand miles through the desert with five VPNs just to press my face up against the glass and see the last uncensored picture of two My Little Pony Characters sixty-nining each other, and I don't even want! to look at it! But I will! I must! for the sake of our fucking democracy!
