What even is cave diving?
You find a cave that's underwater, don scuba gear, and then dive in the cave. If you get stuck, injured, lost, break your gear, run out of oxygen, encounter a gas bubble that makes you temporarily insane, the guideline to the cave opening breaks or comes loose, or anything unexpected that you didn't account for happens, you get to spend your final moments with an absolute certainty that you are going to die.
gas bubbles that make you temporarily insane don't exist, and properly trained cave divers are prepared for pretty much whatever
cave diving perfectly safe! cave diving safe and fun! cave so pretty! look at pretty cave! awaaaaaw! get in cave! wet!

The worst types of cookbook:
The Ottolenghi - it is vital that you use 1g of this very expensive ingredient. It comes from a 500g bag with a one-week shelf life.
The time machine - 15-minute recipe! First, leave to marinate overnight...
The dishwasher - one-pot recipe! Now decant your ingredients and wipe out your pot. And again. And again. And again.
The optimist - cook the onions until caramelised (2 minutes).
The kindergarten teacher - get one nommable little tree of broccoli and bosh that into boiling water. Delish!
The brand names only - ingredients: Ritz crackers, Philadelphia cheese, Cool Whip, orange Jell-o...
The 1950s palate - use one (1) clove of garlic and a small pinch of chili flakes (omit if preferred).
The why bother with a cookbook - to make beans on toast, gently heat a tin of beans and put on top of freshly buttered toast.
#the overachiever: make this very time consuming ingredient from scratch even though it'll end up tasting worse than store bought
Amen to this @akasanata. "Now make your puff pastry from scratch". How about no❤️
So the big pool thing. Did they not chlorinate it or what? Did they not know you have to chlorinate it? I'm really baffled about what the fuck even happened there. SURELY they chlorinated it.
#Algae in the pipes#This isn’t the first time this has happened it’s become victim to new pond syndrome every time it’s been refilled in recent years#And they are treating the water#(Hydrogen peroxide not chlorine)#It shouldn’t have chlorine in it it’s massive and would fuck with the wildlife#The project itself is incredibly obnoxious but the pool turning green isn’t really an orange specific problem
Oh okay good. I was terrified that their level of incompetence, which is already comical, had jumped to truly incomprehensible. I am so relieved to learn that this makes sense and it's only their twitterposting that makes them seem unhinged about it.
See, you also don't want hydrogen peroxide in the water, either.
The administration either got rid of or didn't listen to people who could explain the algae problem, and decided that the problem was because other administrations were just stupid and didn't know how to take care of the pool, and also saw an opportunity for grifting some money.
So they painted the bottom of the pool dark blue, which absorbed more heat from the sun and made the algae bloom faster than ever. So they dumped hydrogen peroxide in it, which only killed the algae around the edges and also made the new paint job peel.
So folks were taking pieces of the bottom as souvenirs so now we have National Guard and deputies from several states who are just arresting people for as little as putting their hands in the pool.
Oh HEY so like, the Obama administration renovated the reflecting pool to draw from the Potomac rather than municipal water, and installed an extensive filtration system, and APPARENTLY at some point in the last 10 years Trump ripped it out or stopped maintaining it, and look, algae.
Everything stupid that they do is such a great metaphor for everything else stupid that they've done
It's very likely that the paint was not appropriate for the usage to start with, and that that was on purpose. It's a standard shady really-the-mob contractor thing to guarantee more work, I'm told. It's quite possible that himself agreed to it, even, because he gives no fucks about national monuments, but does like handing out favors to friends, like this no-bid indefinite contract.
McDonalds ice cream machine arse groundskeeping
I saw this TikTok saying this whole thing is a microcosm of the Trump administration
Waste tax money on vanity projects
Ignore experts saying the project will cause numerous problems
Said project fucks up shit that was working perfectly fine beforehand
Claim the problems caused by the project dont exist
Switch to saying none of this was a big deal in the first place despite costing millions of dollars
Rinse and repeat
Worth noting is that problems with the pool date back to its construction. It was sited on land not really suited to the purpose, and over time the pool became unstable and leaky. Did they know this would happen when it was built? I don't know (I suspect not, and that at least part of this is due to infrastructure and population change--it was opened in 1922, and DC looked very different then), but it is a longstanding problem.
By the time Obama rocked up and it became his issue, the initial issues had compounded with "it's old as balls" and "this was never designed to have this many visitors." Obama undertook a massive renovation that included stabilizing the pool structurally and rerouting the water source, as noted above. He was aware that this was only a partial fix to the problem--there's only so much you can do with a megastructure that was built improperly when cars were still a novelty and that sits in the middle of one of the busiest metro areas in the US--but he did what he could. Perfect is the enemy of "mostly right."
Now if you wanted to fix the pool properly, the way to do it would be to tear the whole thing out, go back to the original blueprints, and have a modern architect look at what needs to exist as substructure to make the superstructure viable. That is, understandably, not a cost we can really afford right now. And replacing it with a different form of monument somewhat less problematic, like a garden, would be extremely politically fraught. So "we're going to deal with problems as best we can when they crop up" is the name of the game.
TRUMP TRIED TO REMOVE OBAMA'S RENOVATION. Like. The thing that meant he had a pool to paint in the first place.
This fucker really rolled in and went "this is flawed but hanging in there. Destroy it."
And we should really just say it out loud.
He took it out because it was installed by a black man.
Trump did this because he is a racist piece of shit who cannot stand anything that was done by a black man. It must be removed and replaced with something done by a white man.
And every time he does this he makes things worse.
Trump is objectively proving over and over again that minorities and immigrants are tremendously beneficial to our country, because every time he says "WHITE MAN DO THIS, NOT BLACK MAN" it's complete fucking dogshit because racism is stupid and economically contraindicated
It's true, and you should say it even louder.
Never forget he wanted the Central Park Five lynched even after they were proven innocent.
We are now at 3 dead ducks from this clusterfuck, too. Fucking hell.
What a goddamn clusterfuck.
I’m about to make *such* a terrible suggestion. (And blame it on a second glass of wine.)
…Nope, gonna think about it a bit more. 😁
people who are just finding out about internet tracking and data mining in the year 2025 and that your special robot friend does not respect your privacy lol
"I asked it but it said no so the mystery is still unsolved" how have you survived to adulthood?
Always remember that you aren't the customer, you're the product. You are being mined and packaged for sale to someone else.
No, we don't need to get "regular porn" back on this website. I mean, sure it should be permitted, but esoteric bizarrely sensual videos of industrial processes & oozing goops which challenge the very notion of "pornography" are actually far superior to the derivative drivel from profit-oriented studios like Brazzers and Bang Bros
no need for tags this'll find its audience
Unironically I've come to love tumblrs surreal exploration of the erotic and explicit in the face of a draconian ban on adult content.
The Machine That Will Eat Your Hand crushing fifteen cans of paint captures more of a primal sexual feeling than I could ever get from standard porn
I get where you coming but we actually do need "regular porn" back on this website.
The framing here is of a binary between industrial, transgressive, nudity-free erotica and profit-oriented studio pornography; when most of the porn being made today sits entirely between those two axes. Sex workers who are making the shit studios would never do, the ones who are doing it for rent, and yeah even ones who are making lame boring shit. That's "regular porn". Those are the people who fucking lost to tumblr porn ban. Brazzers didn't lose a dime.
I think unless we are able to express our bodies without shame or censorship, you're not actually challenging anything. Videos of machine eating paint cans isn't transgressive, it's allowed. Tumblr and it's shareholders are perfectly happy for you to get off to goop because that's not what stops their advertisers from pulling out.
I don't think adding "we need regular porn" to posts is funny. it's annoying and uncreative. But more importantly I think it's completely wrong in the idea that the bizarre and sensual only develops in (or as a consequence of) an absence of other outlets. In fact I'd argue its worse. We were almost on the cusp of recognising that pornography isn't defined by big studios, I remember it! and then tumblr annihilated anything but them from their ecosystem. And look at the culture here since then, its dry, puritanical, and utterly hostile. We've been set back almost 10 years of gross, esoteric weird fucking porn. Or at the very least, it wasn't and isn't happening here.
You're can't challenge the notion of pornography without sex workers. We need regular porn back.
"I don't like porn so I won't watch it" vs "I don't like porn so you can't watch it"
I want to boost everything this person has said and add on.
The reason I call myself a tomboy now, despite it being seen as a childish word and having had someone swear at me over it because ‘tHeRe’S nO suCh thInG as BoY thInGs anD giRL thIngS sHut uP’ is because I couldn’t call myself that or be like that when I was a kid. It was seen as a negative thing and I was already bullied enough. “Looking like a boy” was the worst thing that could happen to a girl.
And I’m not even 26 yet. We aren’t talking 30+ years ago, we are talking 2000s and even 2010s. It’s only since trans people have become more accepted in the past few years that gender nonconformity has too.
And the people who helped me accept my gender nonconformity more than anyone else? Were trans people. They taught me, “there’s nothing wrong with how you feel. You’re still a valid woman no matter what you wear, how you have your hair or what you’re into ❤️”
And don’t even get me started on how people treat gender nonconforming men. JK Rowling has a lot of nerve to be like “uwu boys can wear dresses and only us gendercrits accept that!” when she has, even in recent works, made femininity in men a negative trait, as well as making masculinity in women a negative trait also.
A lot of people still don’t accept gnc people even now. Just last year I had someone tell me they’d never let their daughter “dress like a boy”, and I’m always terrified to walk into a bathroom in case the next JK Rowling is in there, sees my gender expression and pepper sprays me or worse.
“There’s no such thing as boy things and girl things.” I don’t need to be told that and I’m sure 99% of trans people also don’t need to be told that. Tell that to the society that hates us both instead of actively encouraging that hate.
Gonna point out the og tweet thread is now full of terfs saying that life was better for gay people in the fucking 80s, that it was super easy for them to be a tomboy in the 70s and 80s and therefore it must have been that way for everyone, and that it was totally acceptable to be a gnc gay person in the 80s! 🤪
They’re rewriting history as we speak to try to argue trans acceptance is making it harder to be gay and gnc for youth than it was to be gay in the 80s. This is a blatant lie.
The fucking 80s??? As in, “aids crisis” 80s?? As in, “the government actively avoided funding research to help gay people” 80s????
Man I knew terfism was brain rot but I didn’t think it was this bad.
Actually I'm not going to just keep this in the tags
as someone who was there that is finest grade bullshit
This post is almost 11 years old now, so I feel like it’s time for an update:
Steve Irwin in a Jaeger would be entertaining.
Look over there. There’s a Catergory 3 Kaiju. Biggest one yet.
Ah’m gonna wrassle with it.
#yeah but who’s his drift partner. a crocodile. just a crocodile. its not a special or humanoid croc its literally just a croc strapped in.
THIS IS THE THIRD TIME I’VE REBLOGGED THIS BUT I DON’T CARE BECAUSE IT HAS IMPROVED EVERY TIME
Croc Brain: Bite and death roll.
Steve Irwin: Bite and death roll it is mate!
Freedom FROM religion is mandatory.
I hope I'm online when it happens. I want to see a sudden flood of crab rave memes right after refreshing my dash, and in the middle of it all, the Castiel news meme. That's how I want to learn of it; not through anything solemn or serious, but via overwhelming silly celebration.
How I found out that my cockatiel was a girl.
