I love it when a classicist has clearly gotten so lost in the BCE sauce that their perception of time has become deeply warped. Case in point: the article I’m currently reading just described the Byzantine era as “a period relatively modern.”

Not all venom fans are monster fuckers 😞 some of us are just aroace disasters who like the idea of a platonic soulmate who likes to murder annoying people for you, is that so bad?

Representation is great! How about giving money to black girls to play hockey and making sure they have access to a rink and a space without racial violence?

Don’t forget you can donate to Black Girl Hockey Club and the Women of Colour Hockey Collective!

concoctionboy

I have reblogged this post on previous Wednesdays without adding anything to it, but I figured to respect the artist it might be a good idea to add a link to the source of the photo.

Anyway, Happy Mama Mia It's-A Wednesday Wrong Fucking Image Wednesday once again.

I offered to come check on my friend's animals while she's away for the long weekend

She thinks I'm joking

But I'm ready

eunyisadoran

Wait. Are there 200, but to be numbered 1-250? Did I read those tags right? 😲

kedreeva

Yes there are actually 202 of them, the company sent 2 extra in the package, and I will be numbering them on the bottom with sharpie marker 1-250. This will ensure even if she manages to find all 202, she will never truly stop feeling like there might be a tiny duck somewhere unknown in the house. Lurking. Waiting to appear at the strangest time.

hey op i don't think those are frogs like you said

armayes

they're right those arent frogs op.

kedreeva

I meant to prank my friend by hiding hundreds of small ducks after saying I would hide small frogs, but it turns out due to some quirk of only 3 people on the entire Internet knowing what a prank is, it seems I have pranked hundreds of other people by saying I would put 100 small frogs in my friends house, when in fact the prank was that it was 202 small ducks.

kedreeva

an update. it has been over 4 months and they are still finding ducks

1 year and 7 months later:

#imagine the dread she felt when she found the first duck and realized op wasn't joking (via @robyn-goodfellowe)

The key to a good prank, imo, is that the person you're pranking should not feel bad. They should feel delight. My friend has 2 kids. She walked in the door from her vacation, and instead of having two cranky children to deal with as soon as she got home on top of everything else, she got two children excited to run around finding small ducks. My friend knows me well enough to know that when I say weird things there's always a chance I'm not joking, and she would have said no (and been respected) if she didn't want this. The prank was never that I was hiding the toys, just which toys they were, and how many would be hidden.

Shoutout to that very funny blip in French history where it was basically accepted that the king would have a wife (diplomatic concerns, ensuring the bloodline), an 'official' mistress (helping manage court and household affairs, patronage, sometimes surprisingly large roles in royal administration) and then also potentially several women he just actually wanted to have sex with.

booksandchainmail

The maîtresse-en-titre (French: [mɛtʁɛs ɑ̃ titʁ]) was the official royal mistress of the King of France.[1] The title was vaguely defined and used in the Middle Ages but finally became an acknowledged, if informal, position during the reign of Henry IV (r. 1589–1610), and continued through the reign of Louis XV (r. 1715–1774). It was a semi-official position which came with its own apartments, estates and a title if the woman did not have any.[2] Some individuals having this position acquired significant power and more influence than the Queen of France, as some mistresses were known to advise the King of France in state affairs if he was so infatuated, broker favors for clients, elevate others in social mobility, forge alliances and negotiate with foreign diplomats.[3] In contrast, the title petite maîtresse was the title of a mistress who was not officially acknowledged.

^ from wikipedia

I can't find the exact citation now, but apparently one of Madame du Barry's jobs as Louis XV's official mistress was arranging his assignations, and she was blamed for his death since he got smallpox from a prostitute she hired for him

one time i was making potato soup and i needed broth for it but i was out of broth. but in my dog food cabinet there was a carton of chicken broth that i had bought for my dog. now the box did say HUMAN GRADE and the ingredients were just bog standard chicken broth. it did say something about joint health for dogs on there. but the ingredients were normal. i even compared the ingredients list to some normal person broth and they were the same. so i did put dog broth in that soup and it did taste completely normal. but i did use the dog broth.

Okay interesting to look at. But seriously nobody wants these things. Nobody's going to wear these things. It's like art at the museum that I can admire but I 100% don't want to my home.

I have this crazy idea that I would like full visibility

fashion-runways

couture is not something you wear out on a daily basis, that's why we have ready to wear, couture is for special occasions, for editorials, etc. also yes people wants these things, i want these things.

by the way it's fine to like sexual content just for the sake of it. "we can't ban porn because other stuff will get banned" "sometimes nude art has value" "the government will classify queer people as sexual" this is all true but it's okay to just like porn. its okay to not want porn to be banned because you like it.

avalonjoan

This is like the “people use birth control medications to treat lots of other health conditions so it’s important we protect their access to it” argument. It’s actually okay for people to take a medication solely for the purpose of having sex without getting pregnant, and access should be protected even on that basis alone.

razielim

Yes, and... we should have a section for porn in all art museums. Porn is for jerking off AND it is art. It is okay, great even, to consider pornography for its artistic merits and cultural context, and not only when sequestered to a dedicated "sex" museum.

We already do this with a lot of porn from antiquity. If it was art when it was made then, it is art when it is made now.

"Sometimes nude art has value," is like saying, "Sometimes art has value." Take the "sometimes" off; we know it's more or less "sometimes" despite technically it more or less "always" having value.

Art has value.

Nude art has value.

Erotic art has value.

Pornographic art has value.

Joining the war on porn on the side of, "We can do more for the ethical preservation of cultures and their artifacts, for the education about the nature and context of said artifacts, and for the legitimacy of all creative self-expression than simply not banning porn. If we are debating whether porn has a right to even exist, we are having the wrong conversation, one which has been fed to us by those whom this near-concession conversation benefits, rather than one determined by our own principles."

I would like to move the Overton window to a stronger position for us, actually? And not just beg for scraps — *cough* I mean — beg for reps to not ban porn bc then "other stuff will get banned"?? Stop ceding ground.

Stop ceding ground.

“i love how we as a fandom have just agreed that–” don’t include me in this. do NOT lump me in with that.

You wanna talk about Power Rangers being too much of a major investment and are afraid of the budget yet you’re a company with BILLIONS of dollars and have IPs like Marvel and Star Wars. This series was able to go on for thirty years with scraps for money yet y’all can’t even do the same, make it make sense!
