In the Year of the Horse, let us all truly appreciate what this mythical creature has done for surrealist memes. I don’t think there is another animal that has inspired such unhinged internet images. We should all be both eternally grateful and forever afraid.
I still won't forget when my wisdom tooth got infected and couldn't sleep bc the pain was so bad and I took like 4 of those those blue gel ibuprofens and I finally fell asleep for a couple hours and kept having dreams about beautiful glowing blue animals that help you and I kept waking up thinking the blue animals will help me and realizing wait what are blue animals they aren't real and immediately falling back asleep thinking about the blue animals again
My blue animals
hi op. fanart of my blue animals
They are so beautiful.... I love this..
Never forget what they took from us.
For those asking how it compares today
and also
Mid-year 2026 update (this is without tax):
Remember this the next time someone argues that raising the minimum wage will raise prices
to be clear, the U.S. federal minimum wage in 1999 was $5.15/hour, so a worker who made the minimum wage could buy the items on that receipt with 41 minutes of work.
in 2026, the federal minumum wage is $7.25, so a worker who makes minimum wage would have to work 95 minutes--more than twice as long--to buy those same items.
average Alanna problem: this boy is being real stupid right now
average Daine problem: the forest 😐
average Kel problem: They Are Killing The Children
average Beka problem: the bribe money is barely making rent
I understand completely why someone in America would not want to go to the emergency, I completely understand, I get it, I’ve injured myself and not gotten care because I’m like “eh it’s probably not a concussion,” but I am begging you: if you suddenly can’t walk, that’s a problem to address on day one, not day five.
if you are a queer earring maker at a queer friendly event you should have clipons and ADVERTISE THEM you will make SO MUCH FUCKING MONEY there are SO MANY CUTE TRANS GIRLS who want to try your earrings but don't have pierced ears!!!!!! I repeat YOU WILL MAKE SO MUCH MONEY IF YOU DO THIS
genuinely I have sold a couple runs of earrings now and I can provide solid evidence that advertising that clipons even exist as an option literally tripled my sales
And please if you have the options, get traditional screw backs without a hinged clip. Everything with a clip works by squeezing your ear as hard as it can. Screw backs let you manually tighten it enough that they won’t slip off, but no further, and are much more comfortable for longer periods of time. They seem to be dying out, though, and increasingly hard to get.
“hey this dog looks to be struggling to perform very basic functions and that is very worrying” “well ACTUALLY if you STUDIED THE BREED STANDARD you’d see that this dog is actually the IDEAL ______” YEAH. THIS TOO IS THE PROBLEM. WHAT ARE YOU NOT GETTING.
“you can’t blame breeders for breeding to standard :/“ i actually find it very easy to blame them. they are the ones creating the dogs on purpose, you see
Shifting your opinions and worldviews after listening to other people is good for you.
It's good for you and people around you.
Listen to other people's lived experiences. You don't have to 100% understand them, or really understand them at all.
Sometimes you just have to accept that someone's lived experiences are wildly different from yours. And in the end you realize that because you're both human you have infinitely more in common with them than not.
I used to hold so many rigid, exclusionary views, because of the context I was raised/socialized in. And then I started listening to other people and realized that life has way less rules that actually matter than most people seem to think.
And now I'm genuinely a happier person, and I don't waste my or anyone else's energy on debating over or policing others. I grew up.
I have been able to grant myself a richer, more fulfilling life and experience of myself, too. I have been able to find connections to people I previously would've missed out on. Try it.
It's not "incorrect" to treat tabletop RPG character creation as a guided OC creation tool – heck, it's not even novel; the first published tabletop RPG to explicitly frame character creation as a standalone solo minigame came out in like 1977 – but you do need to recognise that each character creation system is tuned to produce a very particular Type of Guy. Yes, even the ostensibly "generic" ones. This isn't a flaw – obviously you want character creation for a game to strongly push people toward creating characters who are both willing and able to participate in the things the game in question is about – but it's something to be aware of when using tabletop RPGs in this way. If you're trying to use Dungeons & Dragons as a creative framework for a character who would never under any circumstances voluntarily go into a dungeon to fight a dragon, you're gonna have a rough time!
a few of my favorite paintings by victorian artist Briton Rivière (1840-1920)
his consistent use of animals and their place in the lives of humans is beautiful.
one of my favorite this american life segments of late is about the people who played orchestra pit for phantom of the opera on broadway and how, like, a sizeable majority of them had literally been playing the show since it opened in 1988 (on broadway. I know it opened in 86 on the west end, you random pedants, but I am specifically talking about broadway musicians) because their contracts stipulated that they'd have jobs throughout the show's entire run... but nobody anticipated that phantom would become the longest-running broadway show of all time.
and none of these people wanted to walk away from a guaranteed job, so very few of them ever quit. they just kept doing the same show eight nights a week... for twenty or thirty years... and by the time it finally closed last year most of these musicians (who had been working together for DECADES) hated each other and really really fucking loathed phantom. I can't stop thinking about it. it's indescribably hellish to imagine but also the funniest thing I've ever heard in my life.
can you imagine.
[ID: excerpt from an article reading: One of my favorite stories, which should drive anyone who has every played in a band crazy-- there’s this bassoon player who has sat next to the same clarinet player since 1988. She’s convinced he plays half a note4 flat on every note he’s every played. He denies this. /]

We live in a system that makes money off of your misery and ambivalence. It relies on people thinking that they are inherently bad for the planet and that the world is ending so why change? Why try? --This is untrue! We belong here, on this one beautiful green earth and we have to work together to protect it. You have the power to do more than you know. You have a role to play in your ecosystem!
"it's just stress" oh thank god, it's just the silent killer that slowly kills you, perfectly harmless, no need to worry
the disability community is so unsafe for Jews it’s insane. what do you mean I can’t talk to other chronically ill people because they’re all wrapping themselves in keffiyehs and posting from the river to the sea and saying we don’t have healthcare because of the zios and Israel. what do you mean
.
Don't point out that your medications are made in Israel, or someone will tell you you're better off not taking your life saving medications because "you're just giving money to the "IOF."
Holy shit I thought you were just making fun of how over-the-top their bullshit is. These people are quite literally beyond parody.
uh ya these people are literally killing themselves to "support palestine" so whats not taking medication to them ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
actual doctors are trying to push a ban on medications made in Israel in Ireland:
More than 50 senior doctors at Children's Health Ireland (CHI) are urging the government to stop using medications from Israeli-owned Teva O
Oh hey, that's the company that makes the medicine I was talking about!
Everyone to feel free to save this for later:
I was talking to a friend a while ago about exploring my options for Aliyah and she decided it was right "warn" me against moving to Israel because I was "too disabled" and she didn't think it was a good idea when I'm always so sick.
I didn't trust her after that and she was very indignant when I brought it up as just one of many reasons that I was ending our friendship.
