I think if humans layed eggs then our bosses would still make us come into work even after laying eggs... they'd say "get an incubator! you don't need to watch them!" and we would be forced into work every day instead of sitting on our eggs, so tragic! so cruel!!!!!
Posted by a birdbrain who is very very upset about having to go to work tomorrow morning
Its like this
I know the exact pressure it takes to crack a rib during CPR. But last Tuesday, I learned a patient’s silence can break a doctor’s soul.
His name was David Chen, but on my screen, he was "Male, 82, Congestive Heart Failure, Room 402." I spent seven minutes with him that morning. Seven minutes to check his vitals, listen to the fluid in his lungs, adjust his diuretics, and type 24 required data points into his Electronic Health Record. He tried to tell me something, gesturing toward a faded photo on his nightstand. I nodded, said "we'll talk later," and moved on. There was no billing code for "talk later."
Mr. Chen died that afternoon. As a nurse quietly cleared his belongings, she handed me the photo. It was him as a young man, beaming, his arm around a woman, standing before a small grocery store with "CHEN'S MARKET" painted on the window.
The realization hit me like a physical blow. I knew his ejection fraction and his creatinine levels. I knew his insurance provider and his allergy to penicillin. But I didn't know his wife's name or that he had built a life from nothing with his own two hands. I hadn’t treated David Chen. I had managed the decline of a failing organ system. And in the sterile efficiency of it all, I had lost a piece of myself.
The next day, I bought a small, black Moleskine notebook. It felt like an act of rebellion.
My first patient was Eleanor Gable, a frail woman lost in a sea of white bedsheets, diagnosed with pneumonia. I did my exam, updated her chart, and just as I was about to leave, I paused. I turned back from the door.
"Mrs. Gable," I said, my voice feeling strange. "Tell me one thing about yourself that’s not in this file."
Her tired eyes widened in surprise. A faint smile touched her lips. "I was a second-grade teacher," she whispered. "The best sound in the world... is the silence that comes just after a child finally reads a sentence on their own."
I wrote it down in my notebook. Eleanor Gable: Taught children how to read.
I kept doing it. My little black book began to fill with ghosts of lives lived.
Frank Miller: Drove a yellow cab in New York for 40 years.
Maria Flores: Her mole recipe won the state fair in Texas, three years running.
Sam Jones: Proposed to his wife on the Kiss Cam at a Dodgers game.
Something began to change. The burnout, that heavy, gray cloak I’d been wearing for years, started to feel a little lighter. Before entering a room, I’d glance at my notebook. I wasn’t walking in to see the "acute pancreatitis in 207." I was walking in to see Frank, who probably had a million stories about the city. My patients felt it too. They'd sit up a little straighter. A light would flicker back in their eyes. They felt seen.
The real test came with Leo. He was 22, angry, and refusing dialysis for a condition he’d brought on himself. He was a "difficult patient," a label that in hospital-speak means "we've given up." The team was frustrated.
I walked into his room and sat down, leaving my tablet outside. We sat in silence for a full minute. I didn't look at his monitors. I looked at the intricate drawings covering his arms.
"Who's your artist?" I asked.
He scoffed. "Did 'em myself."
"They're good," I said. "This one... it looks like a blueprint."
For the first time, his gaze lost its hard edge. "Wanted to be an architect," he muttered, "before... all this."
We talked for twenty minutes about buildings, about lines, about creating something permanent. We didn't mention his kidneys once. When I stood up to leave, he said, so quietly I almost missed it, "Okay. We can try the dialysis tomorrow."
Later that night, I opened my Moleskine. I wrote: Leo Vance: Designs cities on paper.
The system I work in is designed to document disease with thousands of data points. It logs every cough, every pill, every lab value. It tells the story of how a body breaks down.
My little black book tells a different story. It tells the story of why a life mattered.
We are taught to practice medicine with data, but we heal with humanity. And in a world drowning in information, a single sentence that says, "I see you," isn't just a kind gesture.
It’s the most powerful medicine we have.
"It would take far more than a month to honor the contributions of queer and transgender New Yorkers," wrote NYC Mayor Zohran Mamdani.
Morons who Don't Vote: (Or worse, vote for third party candidates) Both Sides are the Same!
Me, a person who wasn't dropped on their head as a child: Well one side is celebrating and embracing the LGBTQ community and the other side wants us to be put in death camps
So I'm going to go ahead and say no
No they're not
WE COULD HAVE HAD EIGHT YEARS OF THIS WOMAN AS PRESIDENT
We could have had a President whose actually a fucking human being with a soul
But no, you fucking morons were too busy finding reasons to call her "problematic" so that you could instead an antisemitic homophobic, transphobic and racist fucking pedophile and serial rapist to squat his braindead ass in the white house for another four years
This is what you people fucking cost us and to every non-voter and third party voter this pride month, I just wish to say?
Point of order.
we very much still can have 8 years of this woman has president. if that makes you feel better.
True
If she decides to run again and if voters aren't idiots this time <3
In all honesty… I think we can do better than her. We’ve got two years to find a candidate that’s brave enough to actually change the status quo for the better, and I’m not confident that Harris could do much to convince voters that she won’t just be another Biden-style president that’s too afraid to do anything risky enough to actually help people
Yeah, 100%. At least this time we'll get an actual elected candidate, and not just a "well, there's not enough time to run a primary 🤷♀️" candidate. And hopefully it won't be "I'll Follow The Law" Kamala.
My fiance and I (already struggling to keep our phones on) are both going to be going through major surgery sometime in the future, which is a huge deal for a few reasons. The surgeries themselves are both gender affirming and will address serious long-suffered health issues. But we have such severe allergies that hospitals generally cannot feed us full meals without killing us. (ask me more about this, I would love an opportunity to scream about it)
In the past, a week in this hospital has cost us $300 for both of us to get food we can actually prepare and eat in a hospital room. We are looking at some insane upcoming costs, even if our insurance covers everything directly related to the surgery, because it absolutely won't cover the food costs.
oh, and I'm going through a cancer scare, waiting on a biopsy. Just totally separate from all this, so yknow. Sort of bracing for things to get worse.
Anything helps with this. I made art and you can buy pieces at my kofi If you'd like to help directly, I have a gfm and my payment links are as follows. Dm for proof or details.

The other night husband and I were watching a documentary about the yeti where they were doing DNA analysis of samples of supposed yeti fur, and every one of them came back as bears.
Anyway, the next night we watched a thing about some pig man who is supposed to live in Vermont. People said it had claws and a pig nose but walked upright like a man. Now, I happen to know that sideshows used to shave bears and present them as pig men. So every piece of evidence they gave of this monster sounds to me like a bear with mange.
So now the running joke in our house is that everything is bears. Aliens? Bears. Loch Ness monster? Bear. Every cryptozoological mystery is just a very crafty bear.
Bears. They’re everywhere. Be wary. Anyone or anything could be a bear.
oh shit
As the OP of this post, I’m going to threaten that if this gets to one million notes by the 10 year anniversary on 1 June 2026, one year from today, I will get a lower back tattoo of the loch ness bear monster.
At time of posting, this is at 711.6k notes

Only 12 days left.

The note count as of 3:12 PM EDT was 742.4K.
We’re almost 258,000 notes short of the Committment To The Bit Tumblr Curse goal, or what I am choosing to call:

You know what to do.
I wonder what her catch phrase will be.

this is the only out of touch thursday you can reblog this
Pornhub has launched its new site designed for women-loving-women audiences, dedicated to lesbian and non-binary content and creators.
<3 YES GOOD :D <3
I'm feeling a bit wary about this. On the one hand, yay, sapphic content! On the other hand, it mentions "lesbian" and "non-binary" content, but I don't see the word "trans" mentioned anywhere in the article.
Does this mean that it simply didn't mention them because it's being inclusive? Or does it mean that their definition of "sapphic" is just women and AFAB nonbinary people?
I dunno, I keep flashing back to those scandals over sapphic dating apps that intentionally excluded trans women. Maybe I'm catastrophizing? Or maybe, since transfem content is so big on Pornhub, the site owners will be like, "what are you complaining about? You trannies have a whole genre to yourself. Let real women have something of their own."
I guess we'll find out.
ngl, this thing wishes that 'older trans woman' was not synonymous with 'dominant' in the eyes of younger trans women.
y'all are gonna love that 40+ trans woman when she's not dominant, right? you're gonna love her when she's submissive, right? you're gonna love her when she's little, right? you're gonna love her when she's just a kitty, right?
you're not just gonna love her for how she slots into your fantasies, right? you're gonna love all of her and not just the parts that get you horny, right? you're gonna love her even when she won't force you to take care of yourself, right?
you're gonna love the 40+ trans woman for who she is, right?
@ everyone in the group chat lets all melt together into one terrible mound of flesh!!!
The Invitation (2017)
Yet another new study debunked the basis for the anti-trans sports bans. It was never about sports but for creating legal avenues for exclusion and abjection. This is one of the largest analyses ever conducted, involving 52 studies and 6,485 trans people. Read the study here.
post so nice had to reblog it twice and force it down everyone's throats

Beep boop! I look for accidental haiku posts. Sometimes I mess up.
funny how nobody ever complains about trans men in sports. I bet a lot of them do great. T is T whether or not you made it yourself
If you'd like, I could complain about how a trans man got signed on with the Minnesota Aurora (a women's soccer team) and about how media outlets are spinning this as some kind of win for LGBT rights.
The concept of being 4 months clean from ai...
idc what you guys think I'm proud of him
Several AI services (chatbots ) are purposely addictive, the same way people can become addicted to gambling or shopping. We’ve literally seen in real time how ChatGPT has caused psychosis and delusions in people; it can have a huge affect on someones’s mental stability. Just because it isn’t substance-based doesn’t mean that doesn’t count as an addiction, and shaming people who are trying to move on and improve themselves is counterproductive. Im proud of that dude and his 4 month mark!
AI chatbots can fuel emotional dependence and blur boundaries. Emerging research highlights significant mental health risks. Here are import
Large language models often prioritise agreeability over truthfulness to the detriment of users
AI addiction includes the overuse of AI chatbots and companions, often leading to adverse psychological effects.
Some articles to back my statements, and this isn’t even mentioning about the predatory chatbots who do this on purpose
Then I'll mention the predatory chatbots who do it on purpose! Character.ai is one of many AI chatbot websites that're designed to be addictive.
None of the signup methods require a password. It only takes email and birthday. Minimizing time on the signin or signup screen makes it harder for people quitting to avoid relapse.
"Characters" on the website will send messages "on their own" (prompted by the site) to try to invite inactive users back after as soon as 1 day of inactivity. This is likely to force FOMO, or make users feel more like they owe the bots a response. Unhealthy attachment stuff.
Account deletion is an essential part of every service that should go smoothly, right? Right? Wrong. It takes 1-2 weeks for a Character AI account deletion to be finalized, and account deletion requests have a high chance to not go through if you're not using the app.
Rephrasing: People leaving Character.AI are pushed to download the app in order to delete their accounts, if they haven't already. This makes it harder for people to quit and stay gone. Failing to quit an addiction makes it harder to quit successfully in the future, so this feels like a feature, not a bug. On top of that, the delete account menu reads like this:
Tell me THAT doesn't sound like a bad ex. It's a carefully crafted yet hostile environment to those who are already addicted to the technology. I am so so SO happy, downright delighted that they've managed to quit, and I wish the best for others in recovery spaces or considering quitting as well!! While AI addiction is an emerging condition, there are already therapists and other mental health professionals trained to help people plan to quit and do so a bit easier. (If anyone seeing this is in need of them, there are several tumblr Communities here devoted to quitting, too. They provide a mix of advice, venting spaces, and proof that you aren't alone.)
As someone who did end up going into a form of fucking religious psychosis at 16 with the influence of character.AI, I second this. It’s taken me up until about a year ago to recover, and had completely fucked with how I viewed pop-culture spirits and my own personal practices.
I have fortunately, somewhat, recovered easier than most. However, I am still aware that there are some who do not have it as easy in terms of recovery as I did, or have as healthy of a support system / distractions to aid that journey.
If anyone is still dealing with AI addiction, or recovering from psychosis induced by AI, please be aware that you’re not alone, and recovering from psychosis is possible. Just try and restart from the beginning of your base knowledge, and continue forward from there one step at a time.
I have full faith that you will recover, no matter how long or messy it takes you.

I remember this bit from Robot Chicken
Got isekaid into a fantasy world and they said to go back to earth I have to kill the demon queen.
Damn. Hope they have other options.
Aight so turns out they did have other options and once the demon queen dies we all go home no matter who kills her so I've been just killing adventurers.
Yeah it turns out if you pretend to be a weak girl and they "rescue you" they automatically assume you're joining their harem and then you can just stab them.
I have so many random legendary weapons now
Ok so it's kind of hard to keep track of all these adventurers but I have a plan. I'm going to become one of the demon queen's lieutenant.
I was worried I'd have to fight to get into her palace but the guy at the gates in account of being one of the "heroes" but the guy at the gates said something about my soul being stained by a hundred deaths or something and just let me in
I'm going to meet the demon queen now, everyone told me she was some hideous monster. Wish me luck...
This is the hottest woman I have ever met
So I have a leash now.
You know I think people had the wrong idea about the demon queen. Her idea for covering the land in eternal darkness seems really smart and orphaning an entire village is just how she blows off steam
Ok so mommy said my new armor will make me better at serving her but it is just a chainmail bikini
If I were one of those isekai goddesses that sent people to other worlds, this would always be the intended outcome 🤭
it fucking sucks being a disabled person who can't work and having to see these fuckass posts where someone's like "ahaha jobless people have no life and that's why everyone shitty online has No Job" and everyone and their mother reblogs it joyfully onto my dash for me to see. yes unemployed and unemployable people are truly without exception dogshit people with no hobbies and no redeeming qualities. you're so right. anyway if you'll excuse me i have to start my shift at the I'll Never Be Employed Because Of Permanent Disability And I Love Knowing How You Really See Me store
if ur able to work can u reblog this i am seriously SO sick of it.
btw this isn't solely a disability rights issue or an issue about people who are entirely unable to work. you should also be thinking about the people who are regarded as unhireable. transfems are hugely discriminated against in this way, people of color are passed over for less qualified white people, anyone who has any difficulty playing the interview game is less hireable... frankly anyone who made the mistake of pursuing the things they love and now has a degree for a niche field. if you still joke about Jobless People it's because you've fundamentally connected the worth of people to their labor, and specific labor, work that you see as valuable. and while i'm at it stop making fun of people who still live with their parents. asshole.
