People who think sheep are killed for their wool are so hilarious to me. Does your barber slit your throat whenever you get a haircut?? Are you a returning customer to Sweeney Todd? Lmao it grows back, fools.

[squareallworthy]

This is completely ignoring the fact that the sheep's soul is stored in its wool. So sure, the body remains, but the spirit, the essence of the sheep, that's gone forever, and then as the wool regrows a new soul moves in.

[storm-of-feathers]

What

[shadow-banned-the-hedgehog]

Same for me, I get a new soul with every haircut. That's why my personality changes so much.

[ovenroastedtwerkey]

Tumblr citizenship means being completely unsure if the person posting about sheep souls is being 100% serious or is just taking the piss.

[yoinky-sploinky]

THEY TAKE THEIR PISS TOO?!?!?

[ovenroastedtwerkey]

Yup, stockpiling it in giant buckets to pour on the poor

[kenzily8]

you know the generations cooked when we’re talking abt sheep wool and that turns into stockpiling sheep piss 🥀

[alienpepper]

you haven't truly lived until this post is the first thing you see when you wake up i had to leave and come back 10 minutes later

[kaomera]

they literally put this machine through the sheep to extract the piss and you actually want to believe that they survive that?

[thegreatyin]

regardless of how much time passes i think the ffxiv Billboard Incident™ will forever be my favorite fandom drama to explain to someone because to even understand the sheer magnitude of it you have to explain the entirely unironic and sincere final fantasy 14 nightclub industry

[thegreatyin]

i mean yeah you COULD just sum it up as "mmo guild advertises their in-game nightclub on a giant expensive billboard in real life texas" but it's way more engaging when you understand that the nightclub part is not the weird part of this sentence. it's not even the unusual part.

[ouroborosorder]

the big problem is that the swimsuit wasn’t actually released yet and had been modded into the game and - actually okay XIV’s devs have a weird relationship with modding specifically with discretion with modding because of - actually okay so have you seen any footage of high end World of Warcraft raids

I have unfortunately come to the conclusion that the entire Republican party works like this

[king-cinamon]

I cant even begin to imagine how Rocky could even being to understand that humans have sight.

Some Eridian biologist somewhere: What do you mean that humans have specialised light sensing organs that adapted to perceive a section of the electromagnetic radiation spectrum? And they can do "see" to the changes speed and direction of the radiation, after it hits an object? And they have 2 on them so they can use echolocation to percive depth, shape and texture with the radiation?

Honestly trying to understand echolocation as a human would be weird but not impossible because we can tell distance and direction of sound, but to a creature that doesn't even have a basic "light yes/ light no" light sensing organ, this must sound insane.

Wait! No it's worse than insane! I just remembered that they know nothing about radiation! That's so much worse!

[muffinlance]

"Light" and "seeing" become popular tropes in Eridian fiction, being used for increasingly more improbable things

Grace, after wiping off his tears of laughter: Oh man, you're using it just like we'd use "magic"

Eridian authors everywhere, vibrating Grace's skeleton with the sudden intense force of their echolocation: What is "magic". Question.

Very generally speaking, when you see a black man in a piece of media, be it tv show, movie, video game, etc. there’s something you often see a lot of writers do. To go against the stereotype of black men (and black people in general) being dumb and lazy, you’ll see this black male character being smart and an achiever. 

The Black Nerd. A common character type, the nerd will always be very interested in all things nerdy: science, video games, mathematics, etc. In an continued effort to combat stereotypes, the Black Nerd will be lack athleticism, probably being asthmatic (the nerdiest of conditions). The Black Nerd will dress smartly, suspenders and bow ties. They’ll always talk smart too, using proper English with complex words.

Now, I don’t have a problem with a black character being a nerd, indeed black people are a people; we aren’t all the same and we all have varying personalities. The problem I have is that too often we see a distinct disconnect between Blackness and the Black Nerd. The Black Nerd doesn’t listen to hip hop or rap, only classical music. The Black Nerd only has white friends, the only other black characters are into not nerdy stuff. The Black Nerd never ever uses AAVE at any time in any context.

And again I must say that Black people, not being a monolith, there are no hard fast rules to being Black. I’m more than sure there are Black people like what I’ve described above, I’m not saying it’s impossible; what I’m getting at is that the only Black Nerd we see. There are Black Nerds that play basketball, that bump Kendrick Lamar, and use AAVE since it’s an ever changing dialect. I’m just saying there’s no one way of being a nerd and no one way of being Black.

[the-quasar-hero]

Well @dumbey, seems we’re in similar boats

[the-quasar-hero]

This ain’t about him, this is about Black/Asian solidarity. Focus.
