Quote from the book, by Stratt. "Astronauts are brave people, willing to risk their lives for science. Many of them are willing to give their lives for humanity"

... And Grace's later protests that he's "not an astronaut". Of course not. He's scared, he's not willing to risk his life for science, he gets queasy at blood draws and animal testing, and freaks out at the idea of risking his life. He gets anxious when Rocky takes too long to throw the canister back. He's not a brave person, and he knows this.

But he's also selfish. So when it's his best friend. His Rocky... Of course he takes that risk.

Judgemental Pigeons by iLabrador on reddit.

[bedrock-to-buildheight]

since the games maintain that the pokemon is just "fainting" in battle maybe they function like very strong smelling salts?

That seems to be the common sentiment and I do have them be used sort of like smelling salts capsules (break open over the fainted pokemon) because that's easy enough to intuit

But as someone who's inhaled enough ammonia in lab practice to change their definition of A Bad Smell, and as revives also recover some HP + can be used repeatedly with no negative effect, I wouldn't stick too closely to the mechanism of smelling salts

Bought myself a bottle of what I’ve affectionately termed the “piss perfume” due to its fragrantica reviews. It rules and smells very sexy but not if you don’t like animalic scents. Regardless here are some things I think it smells like:

- being the most gorgeous woman at the lemur house

- meeting a beautiful woman at a dive bar, having sex with her in the bathroom, and then sharing a cigarette with her outside at 3 am

- a chic flower shop at 3 pm in the middle of a heat wave

- the smell of someone’s skin approximately 3 hours after you’ve all done too many tequila shots

- being licked head to toe in a mysterious older woman’s attic. Possibly by the older woman, or possibly not

Also the fact everyone on Fragrantica says it’s a fall scent is ridiculous, it smells better the more you sweat and is an ideal summer scent.

Below are some of my favorite recent reviews to help you understand that no one is normal about this scent:

Where's that tweet about how American chants are "let's go [team name] and some other country (Irish?) fans are "I've made up a song about the other team's drinking problem to the tune of London Bridge Is Falling Down one two three"?

So you're saying that Eagles fans/Philly folx are spiritually English football fans?

That tracks. Love that for us.

Fun story: in the movie Silver Linings Playbook, Robert DeNiro's character has been lifetime-banned from Eagles Stadium for getting in Too Many Fights with other fans.

This, of course, implies that there are a certain number of fights which it is permissible to get into with other fans.

There also was a jail and courtroom in Veterans Stadium, because they needed one.

When I say that Philly is the trash city of my heart, I truly mean every word.

TRANS PEOPLE CONSIDERING SURGERY- READ THIS PLEASE GENUINELY I AM BEGGING YOU IT COULD SAVE YOUR LIFE

If you are getting gender affirming surgery, especially if it’s your first major surgery, PLEASE be aware that you can become SEVERELY depressed afterwards ESPECIALLY if you have a history of depression or suicidal ideation.

Post op depression is a natural reaction to the crazy mix of hormones your body goes through after major surgery as well as the stress and anxiety of recovery. Think of it like an adrenaline crash, but dragged out longer.

For me it kicked in about 6 weeks after top surgery and the worst of it lasted until about 10 weeks post op. EVERYTHING felt IMPOSSIBLE. None of the skills I’d been practicing worked. I thought everything was going to be bad forever. I didn’t attempt, but I was in the hospital. If it wasn’t for my support system I probably would have attempted.

This is not regret, but it can feel like it. I remain happy about my results to this day (going on six years later).

This is not you failing to maintain your mental health, but it can make you feel like a failure.

Things are not hopeless, but through the haze of this depression they can feel hopeless.

It can be terrifyingly sudden or it can sneak up on you. I didn’t even realize what was going on until after the depression finally passed and my mental health went back to normal.

I am writing this post because nobody told me about this before my top surgery. I was caught completely off guard. For my subsequent surgeries being aware has made all the difference. Being able to treat those symptoms as an expected and normal part of the healing journey has made them far easier to deal with. Because even when my emotions go to dark places I *know* they will pass. I have been able to tell the bad thoughts to take a bad seat and focus on healing.

PLEASE have a plan in place for if this happens. I know that this topic is taboo because of how often our mental health is weaponized against us, but I desperately want every single person getting gender affirming surgery to be aware of, and have a plan for post operative depression.

Your partner came back from the dead after being missing for decades. Every one of their friends who they went with ended up dying a horrible death.

Now, somehow, their entire mental health is based on the continued life and happiness of this fairground goldfish that they picked up.

Neither of you know the first thing about how to care for even a healthy fish. This fish has been poorly cared for, has multiple diseases and the person who handed it over explicitly didn't expect it to live nearly as long as it already has.

You're frantically googling how to set up a fish tank, where to buy fish food, can you even take a fish to the vet? Your partner wants you to know that they're happy they made it home and survived their horrific ordeal, but also that if anything happens to the fish then they're going to kill everyone on this planet and then themself.

You're honestly wondering if you're even helping the fish, or just prolonging its suffering, but your partner will only accept medical help for their many injuries or engage in basic self-care once they're confident that the fish is being looked after.

So you get a tank. You set up a filter and all that stuff. You learn way more than you ever wanted to know about water temperature and ph and nitrate levels. The fish is safe. You start to develop some affection for the little guy. Your partner begins to recover. The fish begins to recover.

Which is when you learn that in its 'healthy' state, the fish regularly refuses to sleep when tired, keeps begging for food that is obviously unhealthy for it (and struggling to eat the food that you do provide because “it tastes gross”), and continually tries to persuade your partner to take it out of its nice safe tank so it can go explore the wonderful world of Outside, where the slightest mishap will kill it instantly.

Your name is Adrian, and you kind of wants to strangle this fucking fish, statement.

I have been enjoying seeing people experience food this World Cup

[redflagshipwriter]

The person who wrote this has almost certainly never been to Japan- if they had, they would know that Japanese restaurants also offer table appetizers in many contexts. Some of them? Mexican restaurants. You can get free tortilla chips when you eat Mexican food in Tokyo Osaka Kobe Kyoto and rural HIMEJI for fuck’s sake. Those are just places where I’ve personally had free tortilla chips in Japan.

This is chat gpt trash prompted to “sound Japanese” and it’s based off of racist old movie dialogue. There’s zero correlation here to Japanese grammar and how Japanese translates into English or how a native speaker of Japan uses English. It’s slop. It’s racist ai slop rehashing Western exceptionalism, fantasizing about a Japanese person being in awe of how great the USA is. It’s depressing that people fell for this. I know it feels good to think that other people like us, and sometimes they do, but this only works if you assume Japanese people have extremely limited experience and worldview. It’s mortifying.

If someone other than me would push back against this propaganda, it would be nice.
