Y'all will literally say “i want to kill a mother and her child” because the mom likes Harry Potter and be proud of the sentence you just said 🤦

yeah

do you think two pennies is still enough for the ferryman or has inflation driven up the fare

y'all will circlejerk yourself to the mysticisms of faeries and elves in european countries for centuries and take it as fact but the second native americans ask you to respect our spirituality and culture suddenly you're all aetheists

Gotta compliment him on his reflexes. No hesitation. Just described exactly what he was seeing, regardless of what it was.

We need to start talking more about Congo (DRC). I literally never see posts about it anymore.

Remember to:

Avoid buying new tech if you can

Try to buy refurbished if you absolutely need to replace something

Boycott vapes if you haven’t already

Hold tech companies accountable for this

[librarycards]

here (and this is only from a cursory search) is what tech overconsumption is fueling:

Apple accused by DR Congo of using conflict minerals

The tech giant says it "strongly disputes" the claims and it is "deeply committed to responsible sourcing" of minerals.

Humanitarian Crisis in Congo Is the Sinister Underbelly of “Green Tech”

The “green tech” industry is reproducing the same colonial and extractive patterns that got us to the climate crisis.

“How would you feed if you were a vampire” reveals a lot about people

“Steal blood donations from hospitals and blood banks” = my personal favorite. They assume the process for this is simpler than dealing with eating people, clearly the most ethical.

“Stealing blood bags is more unethical than eating people” = surprisingly common take. Perhaps they hold the belief some people deserve life saving care over others. If stealing blood people donate anonymously that would keep both you and potential victims alive, then how is it unethical? Most likely, they read this take online and never really thought about it too hard just agreed because everyone else did. Very telling.

“I’d only feed off of volunteers”= has a deep set faith in a sense of community. Not only people that you trust to keep your secret but would put themselves in danger for you. That’s beautiful. Probably gay.

“I’d feed off of strangers but knock them out first, I’d just take a little” = the belief this is more ethical than stealing blood donations is fascinating

“I’d only eat bad people” = MASSIVE can of worms, requiring its own post. who do you believe deserve to die, how would you be sure of that, and how is this more ethical? This conversation is now about who you would murder if you could get away with it

cats: purr when they are content

rats:

[ghostlyskiess]

i’m sorry????????

[bogleech]

rat owners call it “boggling” or “boogling”

[bogleech]

it’s really because their happy response is to grind their teeth loudly, called “bruxing,” so when they get really really into bruxing it just happens to flex the right muscles to push their eyeballs in and out

some royal jewels were stolen from the louvre which is unfortunate for historical reasons but you gotta appreciate a classic crime. so many crimes are online these days it’s nice to see heist culture is still alive

no no you’re on to something don’t leave this in the notes!

this is going to be a controversial one but I think the optimal number of cats for facilitating making the bed is not, in fact, "every cat in the house" but perhaps even ... zero

dangerous misinformation

"It is a child of particular disposition that looks at gargoyles while others sing hymns to the Lord at church. I have to believe [Mary Shelley] felt, like me, more at home with the wretched than with the winners. History is written by the victors, but art is mostly chronicled by the disfranchised.

All of my life, I was in love with monsters; this is a fact."

- Guillermo del Toro, Introduction: Mary Shelley, or the Modern Galatea; The New Annotated Frankenstein (2017)
