ACT NOW, BEFORE IT’S TOO LATE!!

[The Stages of Genocide]

the thing is like men and men really cant be friends because the sex part does always get in the way like thats true. and i mean that like im actually dead serious about that

[urie]

like have you ever seen two straight men attempt to be friends with each other but the gay sex they arent having is literally preventing them from the transformative healing power of friendship. this is real

[urie]

i dont even mean this in a "they want to fuck each other" way (although many of them do and will never know it) i mean that like the fact that gay sex is even hypothetically possible between them makes it loom over their friendship like it genuinely haunts them that they could be having it. gay sex is the elephant in the room every time they attempt to be emotionally vulnerable with one another, every time they let a hug linger too long. they cannot address its existence and so there is always something in their way, preventing true connection. and that something is the gay sex. that they are not having. the elephant of gay sex

Hey vampire tumblr and artists of color, sincere question, if white vampires are depicted as pale because they have no blood in their veins, and they’re supposed to have a post mortem complexion… what complexion would vampires of other races have?

I need to know for… uhh… coloring Heroforge tokens… that I use to visualize characters as I write…

I really like how the scientology speedrunning trend is developing, in this clip we see that the participants are

Not deterred by the closed door

Working as a group

Protecting their identities

Inflicting material costs to the institution via property destruction

Getting away at the end

These ideas were not all here from the beginning. They are genuinely gaining experience that can be applied elsewhere

[liirker-at-thresholds]

The church of scientology is on tumblr and they are sending me anon asks telling me that they can't even commit to reporting a post

We need to get cis men into body care routines, or more accurately, we need to de stigmatize the idea of men being into body care to convince soap companies to make better masculine products.

My wife likes when I smell like good men’s cologne. I shouldn’t have to choose between Noir 3-in-1 Body, face, and hair soap, and moisturizing body wash that will leave my skin hydrated and smooth.

I shouldn’t have to, and cis men shouldn’t have to, choose between having short hair or using women’s scented shampoo. Like it’s 2026, a lot of people have long hair now. A lot of people need to learn hair care. A lot of people need more hair products than 3-in-1 soap meant for a crew cut.

We have all these “for men” brands now, but a lot of them are still just not as good as buying actual moisturizer and shampoo in the beauty section.

Like it would kill no one to take the “for men,” scents and make more than 3-in-1 soap and a bottle of lotion. It would hurt no one to just stop marketing conditioner and moisturizer as feminine products.

I’m not even asking us to break down gendered soap, like we can do that ourselves by buying whatever we want, it’s specifically about the “men” scents just being worse products. Just make the exact same products you make for women, but smelling like Axe. A lot of people don’t hate the smell of axe, they hate the smell of unwashed stank covered up by axe, the men (who shower) just need better soap.

At least make shampoo, conditioner, and moisturizer “for men,” the mighty Thor deserves clean hair and healthy skin.

Bachelors put cologne on before they go out. I put cologne on before I go to snuggle my wife. I don’t know if this is normal spouse behavior, but wife like scent. Wife get snuggly.

People will show me cute feminine dresses and girly clothes trying to be supportive and I have to be like, “Hey, I know it’s confusing because I am transfeminine from the perspective of, you know, being amab, but the girl inside of me is actually more like Anne Bonny…”

We have way too many cold emotionless robotic atheistic nihilist characters who take the magic out of everything, and not enough emotionally awkward logic-brained atheistic existentialist characters who see the magic in everything, they just don’t see it as magic;

“Love is a chemical process we evolved to benefit tribal unity and reproduction… it’s actually really beautiful, I enjoy the sensation.”

“Actually a lot of magic practices do have noticeable benefits, because they’re early forms of chemical reactions that we don’t quite understand yet, like grinding bones into iron swords and accidentally creating steel… could do without the chanting, though.”

“Why would I mock you talking to your god? I too talk to a rubber duck when solving a difficult problem.”
