Kin assigned bulbasaur by Nintendo

hi, you can call me Lu! or basically any nickname you'd want to use:kin assigned grass type by Nintendo. she/her, 18+ (Also I post about anything and everything though expect some theatre stuff in addition to tmagp and hermitcraft)

[illululusion]

Why bulbasaur?

Oh! Oohohohohho! Origin story time!

Okay so a while back, like a long while, I was playing Pokémon mystery dungeon blue rescue team. (Which is basically an isekai.) And just so everyone knows, this game has a personality quiz, to determine what Pokémon you are! Now the options for the Pokémon you can get are based on the personality type points bound to the answers you choose as well as what gender you chose to be.

Now the Pokémon available are:

Bulbasaur

Charmander

Chikorita, unavailable as boy

Cubone

Cyndaquil unavailable as girl

Eevee, unavailable as boy

Mudkip

Machop unavailable as girl

Meowth unavailable as girl

Pikachu

Psyduck

Skitty unavailable as boy

Squirtle

Torchic

Totodile

Treecko

Which is actually quite a lot. HOWEVER as I've stated before you get asked questions! And those questions have answers with specific assigned personality points. Now in total you get asked 9 of the 50 available questions.

Now you would expect to get different Pokémon when you choose different answers, I DID NOT. SOMEHOW I KEPT GETTING BULBASAUR NO MATTER WHAT. I. DID. At some point I even went to a guide and that guide only ended up managing to give me a chikorita ONCE! which is still a grass type.

Now one of my friends on here @nonsenseplayercharacter was witness to this whole situation. Which is also how I got this specific bulbasaur profile pic if I recall correctly.

Anyways any time I do anything related to type assignment or Pokémon I still end up getting grass types or grass related typing. Which is the reason for: "why bulbasaur?"

Exciting! JK Rowling is now represented by a trans politician! Voting matters!

As Two Trans Candidates Win Scottish Parliament Bids, J.K. Rowling Praises Anti-Trans Loser

The ‘Harry Potter’ author is posting through it.

In the photo above, the person on the left is MSP Iris Duane, who is a trans woman and uses she/her pronouns. She is only 23 years old, considers herself a socialist, and had the goal of being the first trans woman of colour in Parliament.

On the right is MSP Q Manivannan, who is nonbinary and uses they/them pronouns. They are the one who now represents JKR. They are originally from Tamil Nadu, India and is studying for their doctorate!

"Sex is what makes us human" is stupid. Almost every species fucks. Humans are the only species that jumps motorcycles over school buses that are on fire. Some other things too probably

joining the war on kids reading any book they want on the side of kids reading any book they want. simply you will be fine. it's even good to be confronted with things you don't understand and even find upsetting, uncomfortable and difficult. it's a surprise tool that will help you later.

literally ok so not a funny story but kind of funny? when I was nine I encountered rape in a book and I was like hey mom what’s this mean and she explained it and I was like oh. gross. and then like two weeks later a girl on the bus abruptly disclosed her csa and we were all like ????? what ???? but I was like wait hang on there’s a word for that ☝️🤓 and explained what it meant and that it was illegal and that you could talk to a teacher or my mom if it had happened to you and everyone was like ohhhhh I see I see and very somberly comforted the girl (she was safe she was removed from her home and living with my neighbor at the time so it wasn’t Urgent)

[zarohk]

And this is a perfect illustration of why it is important for kids to read or variety of things, and why abusers don’t want them to.

I don't know how or why I came up with this.

I wanted to draw something for Sparkbird's new song but none of my characters fit it, so I decided to draw this.

[sparkbirdmusic]

ooh art of uncertain origin... I find it very charming! I'm interpreting the one on the left as the Sparkbird-in-overalls character design, and on the right is maybe Sparkbird-the-1940s-gambler

was literally just thinking to myself "wow it's so weird i'm having salmon for dinner tonight and neither of the cats is stalking me and trying to steal my plate" and then i looked up

[derinthescarletpescatarian]

We all know that a large number of the convicts sent to Australia back in the day were convicted of "stealing a crust of bread to feed my little sister" type crimes but today I learned that a lot of them were sent for stealing their workhouse uniforms. By which I mean they were from Victorian workhouses, which were desperate, exploitative and abusive places on purpose (to encourage people to stop being poor), they decided to take that encouragement and try to make it on their own, left (which they were allowed to do)... and were arrested, imprisoned and eventually sent as convict labour to Australia because they were wearing the uniform they were given when they entered the workhouse (their own stuff was usually all confiscated when they arrived and workhouses didn't pay wages at this time so there was no way for them to get any other clothes). Imagine quitting your job at a fast food restaurant and then you get sent to a distant colony to die tilling fields for the military because you wore your stupid little uniform hat home.

honestly I'm very grateful that I got involved in queer community organizing basically as soon as I turned 18, because that's how I was exposed to other queer people saying things like "I just wouldn't trust a bisexual" and "I don't believe in that privilege stuff" and "I don't like when people act like you have to be a feminist if you're gay," all of which taught me at a very young age the crucial truth that queer people can be very stupid and very wrong

[batmanisagatewaydrug]

I think there's a pervasive tendency among very young baby queers to get kind of dazzled by being among other gay people for the first time and that combined with the heady drug of the first taste of independence can really make you start thinking of The Queer Community(TM) like it's one big enlightened rainbow utopia but unfortunately we have dipshits and malevolent freaks like every other demographic. Peter Thiel is in here.

[batmanisagatewaydrug]

my condolences to the people learning that Peter Thiel is gay from this post

Aww do you like that baby? Use your words. Oh, that's right, your paper feeder is stuffed. You're getting all worked up and leaking ink. There's my good little e-waste.

[roycohn]

something i've noticed that has become really annoying in the past 10 years or so is this fad of what i've been calling, for lack of a better word, "structural whataboutism." it's that thing where, when faced with a concrete, resolvable problem in your community, your answer is to blame it on a vast, unsolvable issue of structural inequality and then throw up your hands. "there's trash all over the ground in this corner of the park" becomes "well, that's where MEN OF COLOR congregate after their 12-HOUR GRAVEYARD SHIFTS and i'm not going to support a CARCERAL SOLUTION to a CAPITALISTIC PROBLEM. WE NEED TO ELIMINATE POVERTY AND THE SUBJUGATION OF THE WORKING CLASS" and it's like okay but sis. someone still has to go pick up the trash. we don't need a carceral solution, we need more trash cans. you're not going to eliminate poverty and the subjugation of the working class and even if ya did, there would still be trash on the ground. how any of this passes for radicalism within their peer groups i simply don't understand. it's radical laziness more than anything else

[figtreeandvine]

I was on a canoe trip once with a river biologist who worked for the county. After we found and removed a car tire, she started talking about the annual river cleanup her department organized. From a water quality or ecological standpoint, removing shopping carts, car tires, and other macro trash from the river really wasn't that important, she said. The real threat to the river was industrial and agricultural runoff.

"But!" she said:

People who see a clean, trash-free river are more likely support laws to curb more harmful "systemic" forms of pollution. People who participate in river cleanups take pride in their work--their river!--and become evangelists for protecting it.

Immediate action leads to systemic awareness, which leads to systemic change.

[writing-with-olive]

Literally this.

Saying "there's no point in doing something small until the big thing is fixed" is literally just the Glorious Revolution Rapture story all over again, and it's not helpful.
