sincerely useful phrases for dealing with intrusive thoughts:

"wouldn't that be fucked up or what?"

"anyway I'm Rod Stirling."

"and what if the world was made of pudding?"

"calm down edgelord."

"kind of cringe, not gonna lie"

"not canon"

EXCUSE ME THERE IS A PLANT THAT CAN MIMIC FAKE PLANTS?????

IT'S CALLED A BOQUILA TRIOFOLIOLATA AND IT'S FUCKING WITH MY BRAIN

IT APPARENTLY CAN MIMIC OTHER PLANTS AND AT FIRST I WAS LIKE "oh cool man it must take it's genetic code and copy it or feel the roots or something like that!! :3"

AND THEN I READ AN ARTICLE ON IT AND THESE FUCKING PARAGRAPHS HIT ME LIKE A BUS

LIKE READ THIS SHIT

WHAT THE FUCK MOTHER NATURE

[rhyperographer]

I went to find the article. It's fascinating.

[digital-magus]

In retrospect, consider the number 1 thing every grade-schooler knows about plants is they take in light, the idea they might be able to see should not wreck my shit as hard as it does

[johnny-depp-is-loved]

what is this genre of photos called

[innerchildabortionclinic]

nobody has said this yet so i'm going to say it. all the "side effects of ozempic" people who are using it for weight loss talk about, are actually "side effects" of under-eating and malnutrition. if you go out of your way to ensure you're eating enough and getting proper nutrients, you will not have these "side effects", as they are just the human body's natural response to not being nourished. yes, that includes the medical conditions. look up "medical conditions caused by anorexia" it's the same shit

[thankstothe]

folk hero really

[teaboot]

The fun and fantastic part of this little throw-away scene is that Viagra was INVENTED FOR THE PURPOSE OF IMPROVING CIRCULATION FOR HEART PROBLEMS. Causing erections was an unplanned side-effect that became their moneymaker, but VIAGRA WAS ORIGINALLY MEANT FOR HEART CONDITIONS. He's literally prescribing a medication for the purpose it was intended for before the developer decided an aid for erectile dysfunction was more profitable

I LOVED the writing in this episode

once you get over your ass and realise you will never get some people and that’s ok you are basically immune to right wing fearmongering. otherkin? none of my fucking business

[stevishabitat]

[mandate-transgenderism]

I must not fall victim to disgust. Disgust is the heart-killer. Disgust is the little-death that brings total apathy. I will face my disgust. I will permit it to pass over me and through me. And when it has gone past I will turn the inner eye to see its path. Where the disgust has gone there will be nothing. Only I will remain.

hell you may even like it

[just-a-bird-in-a-cage]

An unforseen symptom of fatphobia is the rampant, societal belief that since you're fat, you must be eating enough. That no matter how little you eat in a day, in a week, that it must simply be enough.

Zoom in on me, a person having to take a handful of vitamins every day because they're deficient in literally everything because they only eat roughly one(1) meal a day. And yet, I'm still over weight. So it must be enough, right?

[fatphobiabusters]

Being fat means telling your OBGYN that you're starving for 12 hours a day due to suicidal ideation and an eating disorder, and your OBGYN telling you to keep starving yourself but for "health instead of mood."

Being fat means you can't ever be in line at a food pantry without somebody commenting "How could you be hungry?"

Being fat means being locked out of anorexia recovery by society and by the mental health field itself, to the point that you're not even allowed to be diagnosed with anorexia if you're fat. No, you have "atypical anorexia." Normal anorexics are thin.

Hm? The disorder is literally the exact same minus the fatness? Eating disorders are behavioral disorders, not weight disorders? Yeah, I wish facts mattered too.

"there is no way you're not using chatgpt for at least a few things here and there no matter your stance on it" what the FUCK are you talking about

[allykatsart]

[kosmogrl]

firm believe that not everything happens for a reason, sometimes things are just cruel. and they shouldn’t have happened and it’s not supposed to be a lesson because we never deserved such thing.

[kosmogrl]

hm some people in my inbox got really mad at this specifically. nothing you can say will convince me that some of the pain and suffering we go through is our “fate” no, it isn’t

[byjove]

you would have thought humanity would have given up on the whole northwest passage idea after that but it did not
