Ryan Gosling and Shane Topp look incredibly similar to me. Like Ryan just looks like if you stretched Shane, and vice versa. I can't unsee it and I genuinely have gotten them confused before.

They should make a content label for ai posts like they do for mature content so I dont ever have to fucking look at it

I really want to get a binder (currently looking at the spectrum short binder) but I'm genderfluid and worried about sagging. I already feel more insecure when I'm feeling more like a woman because I feel like my breasts don't look nice enough, and I don't want to make that worse prematurely. I'm hypermobile and it affects my skin a lot, my breasts are already saggier than average for my age (this is not just me having an unrealistic idea of what breasts should look like), so any potential damage would likely take less to happen. I really really want to be able to use a binder sometimes as my breasts are the thing I feel worst about when I'm feeling like a boy or somewhere in-between or something else.

By the sound of it only tends to happen after years of very regular binding, but I can't find clear evidence, numbers or answers, and I feel like even if I could my body would get affected worse and sooner?

I would only be using a binder a couple times a week likely, with occasional weeks where I'd need it more. And I probably wouldn't exceed 5 hours.

Does anyone have any first hand experience of long-term binder use? I'd love to hear different people's experiences with different durations of using a binder to know if I should be worried? Especially if you also have a connective tissue or skin issue.

my granddad just called me to tell me how big his cauliflowers are growing and it was so cute theyre “TWICE as big as the ones you get in the shop”

[meladoodle]

i told my granddad this post has 3,500 notes and he said ‘who are they? do i know them?’ he wanted me to list everyone and see if he knew anyone

[auburngal]

If you don’t reblog cauliflower granddad, then you’re just a mean person.

admittedly i know little of the subject but one would think, at 45 years of age, he would be a ryan goose by now

the aroace read of ryland grace is so personal and haunting. "you don't even have a dog." was it not enough to love the world for the sake of living in it. was it not enough to live for the thrill of discovery. was it not enough to smile at your students. was it not enough to be afraid.

i just love all the stories about production on project hail mary. they didn't use a single green/blue screen in the whole film. they built the whole interior of the hail mary. the petrova line scene was done practically by putting infrared lights on a chicken wire cage. rocky's voice was one of the puppeteers because he did such a good job during filming that they couldn't imagine anyone else voicing him. and rocky was a practical puppet/animatronic! sandra huller picked sign of the times as her karaoke song and she asked her daughter if it was still a cool song. i just feel like there was so much love making this film and im obsessed

evangelicals being like "god made men to do This and be like This and women to do That and be like That that's just how it is" and it's just a picture of a white man and woman following traditional gender norms makes me so insane like you boring fascist fucks. god made 2 million species of beetles. god made whales, ducks, humans, and 1500 other species capable of same sex behavior. god made fish and amphibians that change sexes. god made more than 30 different intersex variations in human beings. god, in his infinite curiosity. wake up!!! fuck!!

[theparadigmshifts]

"god wants women to have perfect no-makeup makeup looks and stay at home not talking back and upholding capitalism" god??? that guy who made lizards that shoot blood out of their eyes?? that guy who made salmon do whatever the fuck that is?? are you fucking crazy???

what would be the ethics of releasing a drawing or painting of myself partially nude, drawn by myself and for myself, when I was just shy of 18? So very much still a minor. Not sexual, but drawn more out of love for my body, and as a way of commemorating it's beauty before I lost weight, I was heavier because I hadn't been able to exercise much and was binging somewhat due to bad mental health, and I was planning to eat healthier and exercise again, which I love doing and makes me feel better overall, but would mean my body would end up looking different. So drawn as a way of making sure I did love my body and wasn't going to change it out of hatred for it.

At 17 I did look, body wise, like I could be anywhere between 16 and 30 (I have something with my skin that means it sags and gets stretch marks easier so possible to pass for older even, point is I didn't look child like at all)

But I very much was still a minor.

So, would it be weird for others to see it?

Being a crafty person and making a bunch of things often prompts people to ask "oh wow did you make that?" And like, the short answer is: yes I did, but the long answer is: well, no, the pattern isn't mine, but I did choose and buy the fabric/yarn and sewed it together/crocheted it/knitted it myself. I used a reference for that drawing/painting, I didn't come up with it myself. That ceramic piece was insired by a poem and a painting made by different people. What I'm trying to say is, everything I make requires other people to make their own thing first, and then I get inspired by them to do my own thing. So I can't really call anything truly mine, because really it's just a bunch of inspirations and experiences of others (and me) put together by my hands. Does that answer your question

Some of my favorite quotes from Artemis ii so far:

"Copy. Moon joy."

"I have two Microsoft Outlooks, and neither one of those are working."

"Houston, if you could give me about 20 new superlatives in the mission summary for tomorrow that will help out my vocabulary a little bit, that would be great. Thank you."

“If you’ve ever seen the top of the spotlight of the top of the Luxor at night in Vegas, this looks like what it wants to be when it grows up.”

"To all of you down there on Earth... we love you, from the moon."

"We just went sci fi."

"It is so great to see Earth again. To Asia, Africa, and Oceania: we are looking back at you. We hear you can look up and see the moon right now. We see you too."

"We will always choose Earth. We will always choose each other."

“It’s a bright spot on the moon, and we would like to call it Carroll.”

People always wonder why we need to risk sending humans out to do this when we can just send a robot. I think this is a good explanation.

[balimaria]

I just really love how human this mission feels. Both the crew and the ground making fun jokes and references ("amaze, amaze, amaze!") or things like Glover saying "hello baby!" to his family back on Earth, or how "moon joy" has become the team's favorite phrase, or those craters being named "Integrity" and "Carroll," or the astronauts being encouraged to describe how seeing the moon makes them feel (and doing so to a moving degree), and also describing how much working and talking together improves their capabilities on all fronts, and both sides constantly telling each other how excited they are and that there's "smiles all around" Not that missions like Apollo never had stuff like this, but it's different hearing it all live. Wonderful experience all around.

Artemis II Mission Commander Reid Wiseman to the camera after being told his kids are in the viewing booth at Mission Control in Houston 😭

Mission Control’s response: Copy heart. Copy bracelet.

ethan subverts bisexual stereotypes by never fucking even though everyone in his vicinity would smash in a heartbeat

[bravoechoes]

also. crucially. if ethan did hook up with any of his coworkers the sex would be bad. he would get scared/cum in twenty seconds/be upset and way too needy. he’s like a deer that wants to run into the road. he needs to be pinned down and subjected to forty minutes of foreplay where someone pets his hair and tells him it’s not his fault. and then MAYBE if he hasn’t fallen asleep by that point you can make him ride it
