genuinely hope to see the fall of christianity as a global power some day in my lifetime

belief on an individual level, whatever that's fine, but do not act as if christianity's influence and doctrine is not a heavy hand behind some of the most evil governmental decisions being wrought upon people at this very moment (anti-trans bills, don't say gay bills, roe vs. wade repeal, etc)

people who are not christian are being forced to live by christian standards and under christian rules and that isn't right

Their boyfriend is their partner why is this hard to understand

[korben600]

Also, “partner” is just a good word? It implies an equal relationship where both of your work together in pursuit of something, whether that be life goals or just having fun together.

It’s a good word. People should use it more.

From Wikipedia:

The burnt pancake problem

In a variation called the burnt pancake problem, the bottom of each pancake in the pile is burnt, and the sort must be completed with the burnt side of every pancake down. It is a signed permutation, and if a pancake i is “burnt side up” a negative element i` is put in place of i in the permutation. In 2008, a group of undergraduates built a bacterial computer that can solve a simple example of the burnt pancake problem by programming E. coli to flip segments of DNA which are analogous to burnt pancakes. DNA has an orientation (5’ and 3’) and an order (promoter before coding). Even though the processing power expressed by DNA flips is low, the high number of bacteria in a culture provides a large parallel computing platform. The bacteria report when they have solved the problem by becoming antibiotic resistant.  (emphasis mine)

(*whispering* what the fuck, what the fuck, what the fuuuuuuuuuck,)

the good news: we’ve solved a complicated problem, the bad news: we’ve all contracted antibiotic resistant e. coli

having been on tumblr for 10 solid years without ever leaving and now watching all these people come crawling back in after scorning it all this time makes me feel like a haughty king on a throne but also the court jester but also the castle itself but also the alligators in the moat because alligators are really cool

I love that op said “be as cringe as possible” and my main man Tumblr replied with giffs of Superwholock in that exact order. I love you all so much.

All the talk about "oh Elon Musk's buying twitter now all the people who fled from tumblr to twitter are gonna come back here" and gotta say. I'm on edge. SOMETHING happened to tumblr between 2018 and 2020 that turned it from a warzone to a tolerable shitposting website and my one best guess has always been that the p/orn ban sent so many people packing to twitter that we ended up exporting all our native-grown gremlins to the bird site. I back this theory up by the fact that all batshit fandom drama I hear about these days comes from twitter.

So for most people coming back, happy to see you welcome have some tea or coffee over on the table to the left but if the shit-stirrers come back for me it's on sight. It's on sight. First time around I was nice I was like "oh I shouldn't engage if I'm the Bigger Blog that's a bad move to put smaller blogs on blast :(" free pass is up. I'll name and shame. I clawed my way back up from 6 feet underground and I'm not doing it again I'll defend this garbage tower to the death. PVP. I'll salt the earth I'll poison the water supply I'll burn the village down hand in unlovable hand I'll take everyone and everything down with me before I cede this stupid blog again it's on. sight.

Oh also there's some lemon bars too.

You don’t hate the elderly; you hate people who are living long lives at the expense of others, people whose longevity is made possible via suffering and injustice. There is no generational conflict and there never has been. You have more in common with old people living in poverty than you ever will with someone who watched the same TV shows you did when you were both twelve. 

[archosaur-automaton]

reblogging this because some of you are acting like “the elderly” are a monolithic racist, sexist group who are just horrible and demanding. Ignoring, of course, Black elders. Indigenous elders. Gay elders, lesbian elders, trans elders, working class elders, etc. Someone isn’t automatically a shitty person just because they’re 75 and acting like anyone over a certain age isn’t to be trusted is egg-fucking-zactly what I’m warning against with this post

[taur]

Tumblr will automatically switch to the “stuff for you” without me realizing and every time I’m thinking “wow everyone I follow sucks big time”

[pikky126]

op i'm sorry but this is so funny. assigned bad post at tumblr

[quasi-normalcy]

Healthy relationships are clearly better in real-life but fucked-up ones are way more dramatically interesting in fiction. In much the same way–indeed, in exactly the same way–that feudal monarchy is a hell of a lot of fun in fantasy and historical fiction novels, but complete shit to actually live under.

[quasi-normalcy]

Feudal monarchy is so hilarious because it’s just like: “What if we based our entire sociopolitical structure on fucked-up family dynamics?”

Did I watch this several times?

Yes.

Did I giggle every time?

Also yes.

[sensicalabsurdities]

This is a masterpiece. I don’t think you need to have even read or watched Pride and Prejudice to appreciate this, though of course if you actually know Pride and Prejudice this goes from funny to hysterical.
