Posts that be like “If I were a monster that had to eat people, i would just eat horrible people~” are so absurd to me. How often do you see Known Criminals on the street? Billionaires out for a nightly stroll around town? Effectively fucking never. If I have to drag myself to the grocery store, you think it’s gonna be any easier for me to hunt Bezos and Co. every time my stomach growls? I can’t bother to plan meals more than a day in advance, how am i gonna perform whole ass detective work to confirm someone’s a serial killer before i eat them? Ya’ll got that much time on your hands? Planning 5 course meals every night of the week? Don’t make me laugh. Eat a pedestrian and tragically wrestle with guilt like the rest of us, idiot.

Fun fact! one of Strelka's puppies was named Pushinka and given to JFK as a gift to help ease Cold War tensions. Pushinka later had puppies of her own and her descendants are still living as of 2024.

What are some smart sounding things you can say out loud while reading a book in public

a dry chuckle and a "how droll" is a classic. shows youre above the material but recognize its attempts to amuse you

This year we will celebrate colorful birds this #AvianAugust! 🌈 I've focused on curating a list of birds that will flood our feeds with fun and vibrant-colored birds.

✨ How to join: * Use the daily prompts as your guide to create bird art each day in August~ or pick a few favorites and go at your own pace! * Post your work anywhere you like and tag it with #AvianAugust or #AvianAugust2026 so we can all find and share each other’s work. You are also free to tag me in your posts (this will help me keep up with your work).

If you decide to participate, don't pressure yourself to finish the full list. Be sure to take breaks and pace yourself, and *most of all* have fun!

I am SO excited to hear what you think of the chosen birds, and I'm even more excited to see your art of them. 🌈🐦

Please share, and let me know which bird you are looking forward to most!! (For me, it's the long leggy bbs on day 20. 🍊✨🌸)

Reblogging this here to mention that I plan to participate in this challenge for August! No promises I'll get to all of them, but I'm so excited to add these colorful birds to my #101 borbs project ❤️

i'm noticing. a. suspicious. lack. of black people. in your 'inclusive' 'lgbtqia+' webcomic.

[anglaised]

we need to remake anything greek related with just black actors just to piss ppl off i think

[mistergalaxywide]

or, and i know this is a stretch, bear with me: we cast...Greek people. because Greek people still exist.

[anglaised]

do you think greek people and black people are entirely separate categories that never exist as both bc i promise you the reason that you think that is bc of racism

hey don't cry. on december 3, 1926, agatha christie went missing for eleven days and because the uk police didn't know what to do they recruited sir arthur conan doyle, creator of master detective sherlock holmes, but all he did was conduct a séance to try and contact her distressed spirit

in case folk outside the UK aren't abreast of our news, the British press just hounded a black academic to death

[key-pair]

a rough timeline of events (from memory, there may be inaccuracies, feel free to correct me if I'm wrong)

Cambridge professor of sociology Jason Arday is accused of plagiarism by another academic

the accuser is a "race realist" who believes that in a true meritocracy all university professors would be white. this is somehow not acknowledged much during the entire ordeal

this leads to several days of media coverage demanding an investigation, or that Arday is expelled from his post immediately

somehow this accusation that has no effect on the lives of 99.99% of the population becomes FRONT PAGE NEWS in all the newspapers for multiple days, above anything else happening in the UK or the world at large

following intense media scrutiny, Arday resigns his post as a Cambridge professor

today, august 14th, days after resigning, Arday is found dead at his home in Battersea

the British tabloid press remains, and will always be, fucking evil

It’s a little bit more of a bummer than most citizen science projects, but I wanted to give a shoutout to dBird, where you can report dead or injured birds throughout the USA to provide data for NYC Audubon. We might not all have time for a daily eBird checklist, but hopefully you don’t come across as many dead birds - if you do, the whole process took me under a minute to report a sighting. There’s less than 2000 birds reported for 2024 as of this post (which isn’t a lot, given how many birds die annually), so if and when you sadly find a dead bird, think of dBird’s conservation efforts and send in your report!

This project is still active in 2026!
