concept: lusus are a single species that co-evolved with trolls bc of a close symbiotic relationship

perhaps for every all-white lusus there is a fauna on alternia with the same physical appearance with a more colorful coat? and its a mimicry kind of thing?

idk doesnt really affect anything just a fun thought

[fantrollology]

wait im moving this slightly to the side.

i like the concept of mothergrubs being the third sex of trolls, kind of like a queen bee, but consider:

mothergrubs were the original lusus naturae. they are a species capable of taking in all different kinds of genetics and producing offspring, but that offspring itself may or may not be able to reproduce with each other.

Hey, Why hate Tribalstuck?

Yes yes, I talk of the apparently forbidden AU Tribalstuck, leave the torches, death threats, and pitchforks at the door. This is a discussion because I’m curious on why people are hating a, apparently fantasy AU from what I’ve found, not a something to tear my throat out over. 

I’ve looked high and low at all the arguments for and against the au, and understand both sides. I understand that the face paint(If done in a mocking way) and pulling outfits off actually tribal societies is offensive. But as said before, from what I’ve seen, in the good posts that a lot of people like, it’s a fantasy au made by . Of course, some of the cosplay and designs are straying on the racist side, but that’s because not everyone does their research. If the au was perceived right, instead of tumblr assuming the worst, It could’ve been great in my opinion and a good outlet for some creativity.  I agree with @thatgirlwiththeface and @takoush here, it wasn’t set on earth, it had it’s own self-standing religion, mythos, and history. 

[justsomehomestuckthoughts]

Okay, as previously mentioned- I have no god damn clue why you people hate tribalstuck so much. Since making this post, I've looked all over for any tribes the original au could be mocking- guess how many I found? Go on, I'll wait.

... Do you have your number? Good! Say it out loud, double check any places you think you've seen similar markings. Done all that?

Here's what I found- 0! 0 sources they mocked, stereotyped, or similarly defaced. This AU wasn't racist, intentionally or not. Just you special snowflake SJW's, always leaping to defend cultures that didn't care, saw 'Tribal_' and immediately jumped to the conclusion of racist! Well done guys, gals, and anything in between, you ruined a great au.

I'm going to continue likin the original au unless yall can prove your claims.

So if you lived in a society where you had to secure your communication in order to be yourself around others, here are the apps that could help you do that.

[fuckyeahasexual]

Signal let’s you securely text and make phone calls.

Onion Browser allows you to surf the web without leaving a trail.

Duck Duck Go isn’t super secure but it won’t record your searches like Google.

ProtonMail is a email client that lets you email other secure email accounts.

Periscope allows you to stream live video.

Semaphor is there so you can securely make group chat rooms.

American privacy laws allow you to use these all. So that’s pretty cool.

[anotherpapercut]

fun story about the reason they do that (at least in America)

once this lady spilled her McDonald’s coffee on herself and ended up getting like 3rd degree burns and since there was no warning on the cup she was able to claim she didn’t know it would be hot (or at least that hot) and won a lawsuit against McDonald’s for $1 million

[prokopetz]

That’s what the media smear campaign against her would have you believe, anyway. The truth of the matter is that the McDonald’s in question had previously been cited - on at least two separate occasions - for keeping their coffee so hot that it violated local occupational health and safety regulations. The lady didn’t win her lawsuit because American courts are stupid; she won it because the McDonald’s she bought that coffee from was actively and knowingly breaking the law with respect to the temperature of its coffee at the time of the incident.

(I mean, do you have any idea what a third-degree burn actually is? Third-degree burns involve “full thickness” tissue damage; we’re talking bone-deep, with possible destruction of tissue. Can you even imagine how hot that cup of coffee would have to have been to inflict that kind of damage in the few seconds it was in contact with her skin?)

[bogleech]

Yeah I’m tired of people joking about either the “stupid” woman who didn’t know coffee was hot or the “greedy” woman making up bullshit to get money.

She was hideously injured by hideous irresponsibility, it was an absolutely legitimate lawsuit and the warning on the cups basically allows McDonalds to claim no responsibility even if it happens again. Every other company followed suit to cover their asses.

So they can still legally serve you something that could sear off the end of your tongue or permanently demolish the front of your gums and just give you a big fat middle finger in court. “The label SAID it would be HOT, STUPID.”

[elfyourmother]

obligatory reblog for the great debunking of the usual ignorance spouted about this case

obligatory mention that the media smear campaign to twist teh facts on this case and get public opinion against the victim was deliberate and fueled by the right wing tort reform movement

it was seized upon to limit the rights of consumers to hold giant corporations accountable for wrongdoing

watch the documentary Hot Coffee, it lays out all of the facts and examines the response to this case and explains why everything you think you know about this case is bullshit, and explains why tort reform is bullshit in an entertaining and informative manner

[thepoisonroom]

The woman injured in Liebeck v. McDonald’s Restaurants was 79 years old at the time of her injuries, and suffered third-degree burns to the pelvic region (including her thighs, buttocks, and groin), which in combination with lesser burns in the surrounding regions caused damage to an area totaling a whopping 22% of her body’s surface. These injuries that required two years of intensive medical care, including multiple skin grafts; during her hospitalization, Stella Liebeck lost around 20% of her starting body weight.

She was uninsured and sued McDonald’s Restaurants for the cost of her past and projected future medical care, an estimated $20,000. The corporation offered a settlement of $800, a number so obviously ridiculous that I’m not even going to dignify it with any further explanation.

The settlement number most often quoted is not the amount that the corporation actually paid; the jury in the first trial suggested a payment equal to a day or two of coffee revenues for McDonald’s, which at the time totaled more than $1 million per diem. The judge reduced the required payout to around $640,000 in both compensatory and punitive damages, and the case was later settled out of court for less than $600,000.

Keep in mind that at the time, McDonald’s already had over 700 cases of complaints about coffee-related burns on file, but continued to sell coffee heated to nearly 200 degrees Fahrenheit (around 90 degrees Celsius) as a means of boosting sales (their selling point was that one could buy the coffee, drive to a second location such as work or home, and still have a piping hot beverage). This in spite of the fact that most restaurants serve coffee between 140 and 160 degrees Fahrenheit (60 to 71 degrees Celsius), and many coffee experts agree that such high temperatures are desirable only during the brewing process itself.

The Liebeck case was absolutely not an example of litigation-happy Americans expecting corporations to cover their asses for their own stupidity, but we seem determined to remember it that way. It’s an issue of liability, and the allowable lengths of capitalism, and even of the way in which our society is incredibly dangerous for and punitive towards the uninsured, but it was not and is not a frivolous suit. Please check your assumptions and do your research before you turn a burn victim’s suffering into a throwaway punchline.

#don’t fricking get me started on Liebeck v. McDonald’s Restaurants the level of misinformation floating around is staggering#I know that it’s an older case but it still makes me really mad that people treat it as this big dumb thing?#the fact that the media took a serious case and turned it into what it is to us today should piss people off#the level of distortion of facts is astonishing and upsetting and nobody seems to hear about it?#sorry I’m done I just#it upsets me when a legal travesty like this is just dragged out for some#’haha americans are sOOOOOOOo dumb!!1!’ humor#I MEAN GODDAMN IF YOU’RE GOING TO MAKE FUN OF AMERICANS AT LEAST MAKE FUN OF US WITH FACTS OKAY

you know to be completely honest, I really don’t wanna fucking hear “oh, why do you have to make everything political?!” from the same people who force us to have to make transgender people using the bathroom political

[aisandetsarepeopletoo-deactivat]

conservatives tend to view liberal ideas as inherently political/biased and conservative ideas as unbiased common sense that transcends politics.

even when i was a kid, i remember noticing this in the way that my conservative family members talked about things.

for example, i remember my brother talking about a movie that had a liberal message and describing it simply as a “political” movie, not a “liberal” one—as if conservatism isn’t political.

one time my mom mentioned a comedian who was gay “but not political about it” (by which she meant “but knew his place, wasn’t too open about it, and didn’t try to fight for his rights”)—as if expecting gay people to be silent, ashamed, and content to be marginalized isn’t political.

it seems like it’s always just liberals who are urged to not “make things political”

[infinitimatti]

That makes sense when you think about it. Many conservative ideas are generally seen as “the norm” (IE: Straight heterosexual couple with two kids) so having those elements in your content leads to no response, but having a liberal idea (IE: male same sex couple raising an adopted child.) goes against the norm and therefore is “inherently political” in people’s eyes.  Obviously it gets more complex with deeper issues but it partially stems from this, I believe.
