the thing is is that you'll be like. 11 years old and someone will tell you that you have to shave your legs. either it will be your mum or a friend or a mean girl in the p.e. changing rooms telling you how gross it is that you have hair on your legs. so then you ask your mum about it and she says yep you have to take this razor blade and drag it across your skin under running water and just hope you don't cut yourself too badly and you have to do this every single week and maybe more frequently than that and you have to do that for fucking ever. the rest of your fucking life. because the hair that grows naturally on your legs is gross and ugly and people will laugh and boys won't like you! of course boys have hair on THEIR legs. but that's normal and even attractive and it's just not the same for you. and a few years later they'll say well you obviously should also be shaving your armpits. and then it's your arms and then it's that you have to wax your upper lip and pluck your eyebrows and ewww why do you have hair on your fingers and your toes.. you need to shave that too. and then suddenly you need to buy spray that will make invisible hairs on your face visible so that you can shave that too! and it's expensive and time consuming and difficult and it HURTS but they just say beauty is pain babe! and you're not allowed to say that maybe if beauty is pain then you don't actually want to be beautiful

and i'm so fucking tired of girls who do shave being defensive when this topic comes up because then i have to say well of COURSE it's your personal choice whether you want to shave or not! no offense! maybe it makes you feel empowered! you do it for YOURSELF! because that's bullshit and i actually DO think you should stop shaving your legs because it's not fucking empowering it's insane. if you give it more than a minute of thought it can't possibly be empowering. you're in a PRISON!!!!! and i was in the prison too okay and i know it seems hard to break out but i promise you it's not. and the more people we can break out of the prison the easier it gets for everyone else i swear to god. please

OBVIOUSLY we need to kill the social norm of requiring women to shave their everything and be as smooth as a plucked chicken at all times or else with hammers, especially since it's so deeply ingrained that people are out here acting like you can't remove it without killing the host. OBVIOUSLY the beauty industry is a bloated tick on the face of humanity and we need to systematically undo every bit of manipulation it's ever done & unlearn everything it's dumped into our unsuspecting brains. OBVIOUSLY if someone tells you need to shave or else then you tell them to fuck off. HOWEVER, Telling someone they CAN'T shave even if they want to is ALSO complete bullshit. "But it's a prison" girl my BODY is a prison to begin with and I'll defy it however I damn well please! "It can't POSSIBLY be empowering" What if I got body dysmorphia, have you considered that? What if I just hate how it looks and feels on my own even without a bitch in my ear telling me it's ugly? What if I just look in the mirror and say "this isn't me?" "But it's unnatural" nature is pure RNG and if I wanna undo whatever it rolled for me then I'll do whatever I need to to make that happen, even it's a weekly process! In short: if someone tells you you CAN'T shave your legs or else, you STILL tell them to fuck off.

Situation that happened in class this semester that was so funny I immediately sketched it out in my notes

[thewritingumbrellas]

Writing advice from my uni teachers:

If your dialog feels flat, rewrite the scene pretending the characters cannot at any cost say exactly what they mean. No one says “I’m mad” but they can say it in 100 other ways.

Wrote a chapter but you dislike it? Rewrite it again from memory. That way you’re only remembering the main parts and can fill in extra details. My teacher who was a playwright literally writes every single script twice because of this.

Don’t overuse metaphors, or they lose their potency. Limit yourself.

Before you write your novel, write a page of anything from your characters POV so you can get their voice right. Do this for every main character introduced.

[writerlyn]

This is legit good writing advice, especially the first bullet point! In playwriting class we did a bit where every bit of dialogue had to be an accusatory question and it was glorious.

Does Tumblr know about the travesty that is the optimal (as far as we know) configuration to pack 17 squares in a larger square?

[charlesoberonn]

The little squares are all a side-length of 1 unit. The big square needs to be as small as possible while still containing all 17 squares in their entirety with no overlapping.

This monstrosity of a solution is the smallest one we found. Its side-length is roughly 4.675 units.

i'm afraid the character limit in the former bird app is destroying my potential

you do kind of have to actively shape how you feel a little bit. you can't just like, passively wait for the world to impress and inspire you. you have to choose to look for it & you have to choose to find it.

well you know what they say. when you've invested billions of dollars into hammers every problem looks like a nail and you keep handing these hammers to your users and they go "i don't really think i needed this hammer" and "but i don't have any nails that need hammering in right now" and "this is not a nail this is a glass vase that will break if i hit it with a hammer" and "didn't you used to have, like, other tools avaliable that might be better suited to this job" and you tell them to suck it up because you've replaced all your screwdrivers and wrenches and box cutters and crates and ladders and paint with hammers because your shareholders need to see an increase in value from your hammer investments

the real answer to almost every "does [identity A] belong in [identity B] spaces" question is actually just "these spaces are informal social groups and if you're cool you can hang, don't worry about it"

[tpwrtrmnky]

You can be Homer Simpson at the lesbian bar. It's fine. Don't worry about it.

I think that’s part of what makes the payoff for this joke one of the best in the series

you’re supposed to think Homer is just being his usual idiot self and is about to realize the obvious (har har har he doesn’t belong there!)

but no!

props to them for not only making the actual joke a funny misdirection, but topping it off with this (surprisingly progressive) stinger:
