Just to avoid any confusion, I mean it exactly as it sounds.

Fuck anyone who preys on minorities and vulnerable groups.

Stephanie: I need feminism because when Jesus does a magic trick it’s a goddamn miracle but when a woman does a magic trick she gets burned at the stake.

Jason: I mean they did also kill Jesus. That was a pretty significant thing that happened. Like I understand where you’re coming from here but they very much did kill Jesus.

I’m reading a thesis that I thought I could use as a source for my thesis. There’s a two page section that is basically just a summary of a book with a headling that is just a translation of the book’s title. That entire section is boardering on plagerism. I’ve read multiple paragraphs with no refrences which are full of facts that the author obviously got from somewhere, like including dates and statistics. They also contradicted themselves within the same sentence and I have straight up seen places they misunderstood and wrote stuff that’s correct. Think I might just salvage this thesis for the useful source it used rather than using it as a source

My mom remarked recently that of all the things she failed to anticpate about living into the next millenium, the funniest and most confusing one is that neither my sister nor I have a single goddamn friend with a conventional name, and furthmore, she occasionally has to stop and ask “Which ‘Squid’ are we talking about again?”

[gallusrostromegalus]

What’s funny is that we have no friends with conventional names for the exact same reason, but in opposite directions. I have an online presence where I know all my friends, even the ones I’ve known for over a decade and whose house I’ve been to, as their usernames first and only, because we’re using them to keep our online and public lives separate. A lot of my friends are trans, and only out online so for their safety I have gone out of my way to avoid learning deadnames or mixing any IRL identities they haven’t expressly stated can be shared.

My sister worked as a summer camp counselor and youth educator and everyone went by fake names specifically so

1. The campers wouldn’t look them up on Facebook and see pics of the adult counselors, well, acting like adults- having a beer, complaining about dating etc.

2. Because the state she worked in had mandatory reporting laws if they even suspected abuse, and it’s a lot harder for a kid to identify you to a vengeful abusive parent if they don’t know your real name.

So my sister and her friends all have second names to keep their public and online lives separate, but this time it’s the IRL people using the second name.

Which means that, independently, we each developed a friendship with someone who goes by “Squid”.

[gallusrostromegalus]

Mom has helpfully pointed out that in addition to the Two Squids:

I know a Spider, my sister has a Tarantula and they are both in the process of getting doctorates, one in genetics the other in robotics and her brain has helpfully conflated them into a single budding mad scientitst who is building Mutant Cyborg Arachnids.

She used to be able to keep track of who knew who because I had the large international cadre, and Sister’s friends were all from the PNW.  Last year, Sister and a number of her friends moved internationally so now the Australians, Germans and Irish are starting to run together for her.

We haven’t even told her that one of my French People, “Ponds” has met and is kinda-sorta dating Sister’s International-Master’s-Degree-In-France “Frog”.  

I inherited my night-owl tendencies from my mom so sometimes she would come down, see me on the computer and ask “How are the Australians?”. My sister has since moved to Australia and likes to call in and ask “So How are the Americans?”

“Which one of you has the Porcupine again?”

This situation is FURTHER compounded by my Dad having both Theater People Who-All-Have-The-Same-Six-Names-Because-They-Were-Born-In-The-50′s-So-They-Have-To-Be-Referred-To-By-Roles-Mom-Has-Seen-Them-Play-Onstage, AND his Civil Activist Friends that got started in the 60′s when it was OK to change your name to something like “Virtue” or “Pasadena Orange Blossom” so recently “Falstaff” is in a facebook fight with “Rolling Stone” about Colorado Weed Law. 

“I couldn’t imagine trying to explain this to your grandpa.  He barely understood email.  Grandma though, she wouldn’t have blinked at two names. Probably would have suggested you have another three and attempt to defraud the IRS.”

People who think this planet was created for humans to be ours are so wild to me

[timemachineyeah]

70% of the planets surface is undrinkable uninhabitable death water that sharks love. How is that a human-centric design.

what is it about capybaras that attracts groups of small animals to them? Its not just mammals either its like birds and turtles and frogs too

[33v0]

look at this shit

They radiate peace

[transfemininomenon]

capybaras are friend shaped

[gaylor-moon]

I love this post

[cantavier]

This is actually a cool thing I know about!

In the wild capybaras live in large groups so naturally a female capybara will take care of not only her own offspring, but all of the other offspring in the group. So capybaras are super great mothers who will adopt pretty much anything and take care of it.

Lots of places that rescue different animals will give a group of baby animals to a capybara to raise if they have one.

Like puppies

Ducks

Deer

Emus

They are just super calm animals so they’re naturally great at mothering or just existing in a group!
