reminder that this blog, while not politically focused, supports BLM. bootlickers and racists aren’t welcome here, and never will be.

The zoo sometimes lets peacocks walk around freely with the people. The aquarium should let some of the fish do that

This amount of individualism is exactly whats gonna kill us all btw

"Going a couple hours without eating a single kind of food? No thanks, I would rather kill a child" is such a wildly horrifying take to see MULTIPLE people proudly stating.

I wonder how many people reblogging this scornfully stopped masking circa 2022 because "the high risk will protect themselves" from covid.

going a few hours without eating nuts isn't that big of an ask. and the kid was four years old - she's not old enough to tie her fucking shoes, let alone manage a life-threatening medical condition.

So I do 3D modeling and printing as a hobby, and a few weeks ago I designed wheel guards meant to prevent office chairs from running over cables and clothes... or your pet's tail.

I got the idea from cowcatchers old locomotives used to have.

Anyways, yesterday I uploaded the model to Thingiverse, and just hours after uploading it, the Community Relationship Manager of the whole website left a comment suggesting I enter the model into a competition that's currently being held on the site.

So I did... and now it's in third place not even a day later. First place is $500, but the competition still has a month to go.

Then the Community Manager contacted me again, telling me they want to feature my model in an upcoming design promotion.

Just, what is happening? I mostly made this thing for myself in, like, an hour, and now it's suddenly super popular? This is all a little bit overwhelming 😵‍💫

Other models I worked on for weeks didn't get nearly as popular. I swear, it's impossible to predict what people will like.

Anyways, if you want to print the wheel guards yourself, you can get the model here or here.

I also made a quiet version you can stick furniture felt pads on.

People love simple, extremely practical things. I hope you win!

Love this ad. Sponsored by the concept of garlic. And you know? Top tier product. I do enjoy garlic.

No dialogue is audible over the sound of wind. The video caption reads "Here I tell you some really inspiring quotes. I hope this will help you get up in the morning" End Description]

(Penelope is a small black chihuahua, roughly the size of three bagels, and is being held out at arm's length.)

this video has been the last hinge holding me together for weeks now. I need to watch it once a day or I'll start disintegrating

[eeveelotions]

heres the translation I found online for fellow enjoyers

[galileosballs]

The 'ingredients you can pronounce means it's healthy' line implies a world in which the kind of nutrition a person requires scales with their biology education and grasp of phonics. Which isn't true, of course, but sure would imply some interesting worldbuilding if it were
