everyone's talking about the ibs/autism haha funny comparison thing while I'm still stuck on the concept that hamsters exist in the wild. like naturally

tf do you mean they're a wild creature. you find those ankle-biters at the pet store

[psshaw]

Not a biologist, but the evolution of mammals is way more granular than you might expect. Humans are the sole surviving species of the genus Homo, which was a real party before the other ones went extinct. You're in for a fun time.

Domestic cats are believed to be domesticated not from tigers, but from the African wildcat:

Which evolved to be small just because it's sometimes more useful to be small.

And no, hamsters are not off-brand rats. They're part of the rodent order, which includes beavers, moles, capybaras, guinea pigs (yes, also wild) and lots of other fun things:

Shit. This dude knows an extreme amount about a niche subject. Crazy what you can accomplish when you have treatment resistant IBS

if your animal is lying on the floor, furniture etc, it’s important to take a picture of them. then, if they move or shift in any way, it’s important to take another picture. with this technique, you can take many pictures of your animal

(HOMO)SEXUALLY ACTIVE FISH ARE SEXIER TO FEMALES

Homosexuality occurs in most animal species, from insects to mammals, and it is more common amongst males. But how could homosexual behaviou

[dragongirlsweetie]

it's actually so crazy how much the simpsons would fucking suck if it didn't have any of the simpsons characters. just a bunch of shots of empty houses and streets for half an hour while nothing happens. that would be so badddd lol

[auroroboros1]

yeah that tends to happen when you remove characters from media. without characters its all just background. i guess movies set in scenic locations would still land as kinda nature docs but even then

[dragongirlsweetie]

it only happens with the simpsons

[auroroboros1]

this same criticism could be applied to nearly any media ever.

[dragongirlsweetie]

it's just the simpsons. are you a troll?

[derinthescarletpescatarian]

Dragon's right, if you remove all the Simpsons characters from Death Note it hardly changes anything

[dizzyghoast]

i think its funny how if you imagine something scary enough your brain starts treating it like its real and out to get you. its really cool and not annoying at all

[dizzyghoast]

someone: i made up a guy called the Scary Getter! He's real spooky when he tries to getter you!

me: wow thats scary.....the Scary Getter.....what if hes real....what if he getters me???

[dizzyghoast]

gonna start reblogging this every time i start worrying about about the Scary Getter

i’ve seen so many stories where revenge is awesome and cool and the best thing you can possibly do. just once i would like to see a story in which revenge has two victims, the target and the pursuer. but i guess society has not yet come as far as i have in deconstructing destructive notions of honor and valor entwined with hate. maybe someday someone will write this. not me, though.

[godlessondheimite]

thanks for the recs everyone. can you point me in the direction of things that are about how family doesn’t have to be your blood relatives, but instead can be people you have chosen. what about some creative works that are about the power of creative works. or where the main character is a writer. or something set in new york city where it’s like the city itself is a character. is there anything that is secretly about trauma, bonus points if it’s the way trauma is passed down. these are all ideas i yearn to see represented but i’ve never seen before and i don’t know if they’ve ever been done.

i deserve a medal for this post. not because i was particularly funny but because i survived an onslaught of nearly one hundred gimmick blogs in the wake of this post popping off, and the fact that i didn’t try to track any of them down and snuff them out with my bare hands is a testament to my immeasurable strength and should be rewarded. at one point i had “the official letter h” add on to this post. you wanna know that blog’s gimmick? the really funny and original and worthwhile gimmick the official letter h blog had? yep you guessed it they just gave me the god damned letter H and then fucked off. only jesus knows the suffering i endured over that harsh winter, and he wept for me

teachers now lament that students can't read anymore, not even short articles, and how the judge and jury of the future are nonexistent. which means us spite-driven writers and insatiable fic readers both tackling 300k stories (instead of using bot summaries) will save the world. which also means extremely horny fandoms will take over entire legal systems and journalism #getready

Extremely horny fanfic writers taking over the judiciary and media landscape is the ONLY thing that will save this country

I think shitting on Nickelback is the mark of a mediocre mind desperately trying to find something to look down on.

I have posted before about how sometimes well-meaning attempts at running D&D without some of the more unfortunate dynamics can often backfire but in a way where most people don't even register it backfiring. Because when you take the step of "oh D&D's various 'evil humanoids' don't just exist in a vacuum and given the renfaire colonialism on display it's kind of impossible not to read them as somewhat racialized" many people will then go "okay but we still need some people who player characters should be allowed to kill guilt-free, so let's replace 'orcs' with 'bandits' because killing bad criminal people is perfectly ideologically neutral." At that point it's like "okay so your characters are no longer the racist kill squad, now they're just the Tough on Crime Vigilantes."

But I feel I should make clear that D&D the game itself is not exactly at fault here: like, okay, it is sort of at fault in the sense that it is a game of fantasy killing people with swords and magic. And it is easier for people to accept the killing with people with swords and magic part when they can imagine that their characters are at least to a degree justified. That is sort of just built into the game (and the game has built into its lore varying levels of making the fantasy of killing certain types of guy justifiable).

But D&D is not at fault for making people go "okay so it's bad when you kill orcs simply because they're orcs. It's better when you kill people who are bandits, who are a class of evil criminals where killing them is actually wholesome and sensible." Like, yeah, most people probably don't think about it that deeply, but the reason people don't think about it that deeply is ultimately ideological.

And the ideology is basically "it is bad to be racist but it's good to be a tough on crime vigilante."

[thydungeongal]

You're probably not going to be the person who figures out how to make the game of fantasy frontier justice and grave robbing leftist. I don't think this is an entirely fruitless endeavor and it can even be useful from the point of view of thinking about what sort of buy-in the game requires. And ultimately these questions are a lot bigger than the game of D&D itself.
