A strain of neurasthenia.

tumblr really is the psych ward of social media

[strongermonster]

why is this written like it's trying to hypnotize me into making a batch of caramelized onions, and more importantly, why is it working

[wellwaterhysteria]

If the Government Treated Men Like It Treats Women

And some men do not understand the point and the message and leave comments like that the condoms and contraceptives are not the same, therefore no sexism.

It’s extra funny bc the character actually is like a 20 year old girl who’s been cursed to look like that.

As a kid and I was always confused as to why Sophie just accepted being an old woman but I get it now.

Jury nullification. Pass it on.

[antigovernmentextremist]

Jury nullification is so fucking important.

[lesserjoke]

This is something that more people should be aware of, if only because (in many states, at least) defense attorneys are actually prohibited from mentioning it to jurors. The law allows a jury to return a “not guilty” verdict contrary to the facts of the case, but not for the defense to inform them of that power or to argue for its application in the current trial.

[frpeter]

I didn’t know about this. Wow.

[theveganarchist]

always reblog

[enbyhugs]

This is SUPER IMPORTANT and also a good reason to show up for jury duty. You know all those laws you think are stupid? This is your chance to maybe do something about it. 

[errors-dot-albi-deactivated2015]

I…. I thought this was common knowledge… signal boosting this because it obviously isn’t!

[trials-of-socrates]

Did not know this

[thecringeandwincefactory-deacti]

Jury nullification in the United States has its origins in colonial British America. Similar to British law, in the United States jury nullification occurs when a jury in a criminal case reaches a verdict contrary to the weight of evidence, sometimes because of a disagreement with the relevant law.

[dragongirltitties]

also note you shouldnt mention it until youre actually on the jury. lawyers can have potential jurors dismissed for knowing this.

[judelaw]

I love how their post says “A better, more positive Tumblr” as if female nipples are what’s ruining the experience on this website and not bullies, racists, homophobes and actual nazis

[dare-i-say-asexual]

i remember when i thought i was straight and this guy i was dating was trying to pressure me into sex while i had cramps by saying “orgasms relieve cramps babe” and without thinking i replied “but you don’t make me cum” and i have never seen anyone go through the seven stages of grief so quickly

Y'all ever just suddenly have the overwhelming urge to swim??? Like not actively but you just wanna,,, be in the water and have some Peace

[parttimepup]

Yes it’s called the mammalian diving response and it’s also why doing face masks and taking a shower is soothing. Our amphibian ancestors used this mechanism to slow down the heartbeat and lower body temperature so as not to waste calories while swimming (which is very calorie intensive). It makes you feel safe because predators are less likely to get you in water than on land. The fish brain is alive and well in all of us.

[beyondthetemples-ooc]

It’s literally activated by putting water on the face.

My amphibian ancestors gave me the instinct to dissociate in the shower for hours on end
