Hello, Tumblr user. Here's a non-binary character who uses they/them. Their ASAB isn't relevant at all for the story and everyone regardless of relationship uses they/them for them and they're trans. Your challenge will be to not try to sniff out their ASAB. Go---- oh you're already telling other people who don't agree with you they're wrong and bigoted for hcing it different from you. Okay.
Walgreens texts you your prescription is ready and then immediately calls you like PICK UP YOUR DAMN PRESCRIPTION NEOW OR THE PHARMACY TECHNICIAN GETS IT
I meant "gets it" as in they will kill him but I like your idea of Drugs Georg better
don't ever look up what your childhood friends are up to now!!!!!!!!!! like girl you're a nuclear safety engineer. i put on matching socks today. we played tag a thousand years ago.
Yeah
literally normal to fantasise abt caring for a girl

Beep boop! I look for accidental haiku posts. Sometimes I mess up.
-- Rebecca Sugar, "Steven Universe: End of an Era"
That really gave me such a better insight on both Rose and Greg.
Text description:
āRose and Greg have a very specific relationship. They parallel each other. Greg left his unsupportive family to support his dreams. He changes his name and begins living as his stage persona⦠He invents himself. And then he meets Rose, his fantasy partner: a stunning magical alien. Rose is instantly interested in Greg: heās so human, sweet and Unna and pliable, but as they get a little deeper into their relationship, Greg starts to realise how alien she actually is. She objectifies him, she laughs at him⦠She canāt seem to relate to him or pick up on how heās feeling. They have a physical relationship, but theyāve never had a meaningful conversation. He starts to feel used. So he challenged her in a way sheās never been challenged before: He asks her to treat him like an equal. This is huge for her. Sheās always been less than the other Diamonds and more than everyone else. She opens up to him in a real way, and over time sheās ready to confess everything to him. But he understands what it is to run away from home and reinvent yourself. He doesnāt need her old name and heās not going to drag her through whatever it was she ran from; as far as heās concerned, her old self isnāt the real her anyway. The real her is her in the present, the person she decided to be. [Greg tells Steven about this interaction in āStevenās Dreamā (S4E10).] This is an incredible relief for her! With him, she can live authentically in the moment⦠They both can, but on the flip side, they enable each other. She never unpacks what scares her about her past, and neither does he.ā

Things to do with all the copper wire you stole from the streetlamps....
But seriously, look up Leonardo DaVinci's tree-proportion equation: he calculated that the area of the trunk at any height was equal to the sum of the diameter of all the limbs at any height further up ā and it turns out that generally he was pretty close! (For botanical reasons!)
So not to cast shade but that's why this type of tree sculpture seemingly works like magic!

dog i gotta move like yesterday
it takes 10 layers of the water filter to completely drown a tumblr screenshot if anyone was wondering
look at my favorite steven universe character amethyst
i like it when she ponytail
alright
best case scenario Digital Circus gets remembered in a similar way as Steven Universe: a show that was Really Fucking Good and had nuanced characters and interesting things to say, but the audience wasn't quite ready for it and it imploded into a discourse ball. four years from now I expect to see lesbians drawing Jax like she's a renaissance muse the same way people still draw Pearl or Lapis
Happy Pride Month to those two women dancing together in the foreground of the boat scene in Godzilla (1954).
Iām sorry your romantic foibles were overshadowed by a big ass atomic lizard thing.
out of the tags with you
I think that if you had enough daughters AND played your cards right you could spring Mambo Number Five out at the EXACT right gathering and shatter your entire family's trust forever
The secret is to name them out of order with the lyrics so by the time anyone catches on it's too late
For me personally the ideal gathering would be my funeral
Okay, let's do the math here, shall we?
On an average, assuming genetic invariability with reference to allosomes (which can be premediated via presence or lack of the Y Chromosomes which can be identified by a simple blood test, yadda yadda yadda), you're talking an average of 8 weeks for the pregnancy to be readable enough in re sex of the kid. (Assuming the kid is Cisgendered.) This is typically followed by 9 months of pregnancy (- the 8 weeks) and about 18 months of recommended recovery period after. This gives the conception and birth of each kid an average timeline of 27 months in all, which is about 2.25 years.
Now, in re Lou Bega's Mambo No. 5, there are a total of 9 individuals mentioned. Angela, Pamela, Sandra, Rita, Monica, Erica, Rita (repeated), Tina, Sandra (repeated), Mary, and Jessica. Assuming the existence of a singular Rita and Sandra which were called upon twice in the song, we can assume that this would involve a grand total of 2.25 x 9 = 20.5 years of near constant pregnancies to produce the offspring in question.
Assuming that the embryonic host typically hits Menopause at around 40, we can assume that the primary conception in re the same occurs at around 19.5 years of age. Which is still premature in re sociocultural aspects but the body is more than capable of handling such a strain at that age.
Also, in case we assume that every one of the offspring remain in all cases, cisgendered (which is a variable that is very hard to account for), we can assume that there is always a possibility that the allelomorph of the embryo involved can occasionally involve an XY chromosome. The detection can successfully occur at 8 weeks, and in case an abortion ensues, conception can recur within as little as 2 more weeks. That is an added extra 10 weeks per in re the nondesired sex.
In case of purely clinical states, such as IVF, where the Ova are extracted and externally fertilised each time, a system of Preimplantation Genetic Testing for Aneuploidies (PGT-A) can be incorporated in order to identify XX chromosomal situations and ensuring further that only those are implanted. This, while making sure that the offspring in question are necessarily of the XX karyotype, cannot of course state whether a state of monozygotic twinning can occur or not. More often than not, in order to maximise chances of implantation, more than two embryos used to be implanted into the uterus, typically around five. But technology has significantly improved in the years following which makes sure that there is no need for the same. Elective Single Embryo Transfer (eSET) is now the standard in modern IVF, prioritizing the transfer of one, high-quality, genetically tested blastocyst to achieve a healthy, single-baby pregnancy. This shift minimizes severe risks associated with multiple pregnancies, such as preterm birth for babies and severe complications for mothers, while maintaining high success rates. Clinics now reserve multiple embryo transfers primarily for older patients or those with histories of repeated IVF failures, rather than routine practice.
In case there are more than one embryos that get implanted that are undesirable, the extra embryos can be removed through a medical procedure called multifetal pregnancy reduction (MFPR) or selective reduction.
In summation, assuming of course that we are talking about the most clinically ideal circumstances, where there is the implantation of a single embryo each time, that still gives you about the same timeline of about 20.5 years. In case of preferring to determine sex after (which is cheaper) as opposed to before (which is still pricey as fuck in today's economy), that adds another 10 weeks per embryo. Unwanted implants can be removed via MFPR.
I forgot what my point here was. Anyway. Have fun if you're planning on that.
