"yes now no one will know im an alcoholic"
Alisa Shea, ‘A Feminine Touch’, 2021 Watercolour on paper, 35 x 50cm
What the fuck do you mean watercolour on paper
Fucking Watercolor On Paper.
So i bought the new Landfall game PEAK cause all their games are pretty fun and it is pretty good although a bit buggy sometimes.
But after a run i looked at my little guy in the mirror and he's just...
Thats...thats just...HIM.
is it the glasses, the hat, the stance. the smile.
hear me out...
'classic Goofy shorts' style series but it's Max doing adult things for the first time.
c'mon Disney... it's so gen Z you'd be the cool kids on the block
I mean they made Goofy shorts about quarentine, why tf not?
when your art program’s closing message hits you straight in the heart and makes you stop and contemplate the state of it all
because of the huge response to this post, I decided to make a version of the art that includes the text
I’ve also uploaded this design to INPRNT, and all sales proceeds will be donated to environmental and humanitarian charities!
this is still going around with the old dead links - please help me share this version
I can't stress enough how much I miss StumbleUpon
StumbleUpon once sent me to a supercut of Lion King, Lion King 1 1/2, and Lion King II, the main edit being that the scenes of Lion King and Lion King 1 1/2 were interspersed so that they happened in the order they actually happened.
stumbleupon not existing anymore can be directly traced to a dramatic decline in my mental health, I could do a thesis on it.
bestie stumbleupon very much still exists its just called cloudhiker now. i use it all the time.
mini compilation of suggestions from the replies:
The Bored Button - "Press the Bored Button and be bored no more."
The Useless Web
Cloudhiker - "Discover the most interesting, weird and awesome websites of the Internet" (not really a rebrand, it's a different person running it but they have the same intention in mind)
Astronaut.io - "These videos come from YouTube. They were uploaded in the last week and have titles like DSC 1234 and IMG 4321. They have almost zero previous views. They are unnamed, unedited, and unseen (by anyone but you)."
Marginalia - "This is an independent DIY search engine that focuses on non-commercial content, and attempts to show you sites you perhaps weren't aware of in favor of the sort of sites you probably already knew existed."
In case anyone isn't aware, connections like that are literally called 'illegal' techniques in LEGO parlance.
Illegal building techniques are ones that aren't allowed in official LEGO sets, which always use building techniques designed for and intended by LEGO. The reason they're called illegal is because they stress the blocks in a way they weren't intended for, causing various kinds of material failure overtime.
As an example, the blocks in the example above slowly deform over time because, slowly warping until they don't connect very well to other blocks or each other.
These look like the little soot things from that one Studio Ghibli movie.
These strawberries are aware of their own mortality.
I wanted to meme before the big day.
Not yet, Brutus.. not yet..
Proud to consistently make tumblr less useable and anti-user-friendly!
i've been rewatching moominvalley lately. not that that's relevant
what is THE worst thing you've ever drank. all liquids acceptable. please tell me what it was, bonus points for why
Hey whoa hi. Hello. I am looking directly into your ear canal. What do you mean you drank a tube of virus concentrate.
So, I was working in a lab, right? My job in the lab was preparing a pure, concentrated enough sample of virus. This is tricky since, y'know, viruses require hosts to replicate, but you then need to get the host cells (and the pieces of the host cells that died!) out of the sample while still keeping the viruses. Once I'd finished and the samples had been sent to the database for analysis as well as a second one sent to be frozen for future reference, there was still some left over that needed to be disposed of.
I, knowing that this was a once in a lifetime opportunity, waited carefully for the lab director to be deep in conversation with someone else on the other side of the laboratory. And then I took my chance.
Test tubes, as it turns out, are really bad as shot glasses. Their shape turns any liquid inside into a stream, so you really can't knock it back quickly - it takes a couple seconds. Additionally, the best way I can describe the taste of virus concentrate was "sterile rot". A very unique kind of bad! Made worse by the test tube's inefficiency as a shot glass.
(by the way we were studying bacteriophages, not animal viruses. these viruses are too specialized on attacking prokaryotes to even recognize our cells as targets at all, according to studies.)
(but also like. if the viruses managed to successfully switch hosts and killed me with a violent infection, itd still be worth it.)
(for science.)
You have a fitting blog title
this post is getting 50k easy
This WOULD be how humanity would go out though tbh
geologist: *licks rocks* paleontologist: *eats unfrozen mammoth meat* virologist: watch this
I saw Dogs in love 3 and can't get the "for good" cover out of my head.
It's sonic 06 all over again.
Genuinely 90% of historical fiction would be so much better if more writers could get more comfortable with the fact that to create a good story set in a different time period you do actually have to give the characters beliefs & values which reflect that time period
#even if they share your values they would phrase things differently. ‘I hate to see a man hanged for it’ vs ‘love is love’ (via @aurpiment)
You can research what people actually said in history!
In 1726, when William Brown was on trial for attempted sodomy in London, he didn't say "I was born this way", he said, "“I think there is no crime in making what use I please of my own body”.
In the 12th century, Hildegard of Bingen didn't say, "A woman can do anything a man can do!", she said, God created men and women with different humours and having too much of the male elements will throw society out of balance.
In the 1860s, Millicent Garrett Fawcett didn't say, "Women are just as smart as men", she said, Men get to vote no matter how dumb they are.
In the 1850s, William Craft didn't say, "Africans are just as smart as Europeans and it's bigoted to say otherwise", he said that Africans have thick skulls “to defend the brain from the tropical climate in which he lived. If God had not given them thick skulls their brains would probably have become very much like those of many scientific gentlemen of the present day”
I genuinely like how all of those examples are killer quotes but also represent something that may be considered unkind or overly religious or oddly phrased or straight up untrue today. Excellent job picking them out @sourjen .
Also, let's note how the things these people said were not meant to be one-liners, newspaper-selling soundbites. Some were on trial, some were writing essays/books on issues that interested them, some were philosophers and political thinkers of their day.
And some of them were regular people who still didn't talk like we do today, they were eloquent even if uneducated. They had complex thoughts that might not "vibe" with modern instagram-post type motos, but they made their mark on history.
I'm starting a collection
and another
adults are always talking about how “kids will do anything to get out of school” and okay, first of all that’s not true, but I think we really need to ask why that idea holds so much sway.
children’s brains are hard-wired to take in new information and acquire new skills. consider, for a moment, just how thoroughly our society had to fuck up the concept of education for it to be a normal thing to assume kids are universally desperate to avoid learning.
couple things here:
multiple things can actually be bad at the same time
I’m 32
couple more things:
Little kids really aren’t equipped to work full time without damaging their physical, mental, and emotional development and health, and when you play the “but adults work all day!” card you sound like a nineteenth century textile baron.
Highschoolers can easily be “working” 40+ hours a week, between school, homework, and extracurriculars and/or part-time work, and still hear this smug “:/ wait til you get to the real world sweaty” rhetoric all the time.
The original claim here wasn’t even “school is too hard,” it was “school is failing to perform its most basic function,” which is different.
from an adult point of view:
- When my work day is done, it’s done. I don’t need to spend hours each night to study or do homework.
- I don’t have tests and exams.
- I MAKE MONEY.
Sometimes I’ll be at home and start freaking out that I haven’t done any homework yet before I realize “Wait I’m 30.”
Or I’ll be asleep dreaming that I’m at school but suddenly realize at the end of the semester that I’ve missed all my classes and don’t know what’s going on
School/homework has to be a stressful thing if it gives people anxiety and nightmares over a decade after graduation.
On a serious note: I agree with all of this.
On another note “you sound like a 19th century textile baron” is my new fave insult.
1930s news about a trans woman: Well I'll be curfuffled young Corlotta Jhonson has transformed herself from a dandy into a dame and what a Bombshell she's become. And How!
1930s news about trans men: Wanted dead or alive this young lady who started wearing trousers, the tomboy terror known only as The Crust is wanted for snorting the President's personal stash of opium and has slain nearly every senate member in a pistol duel.
I'm a huge fan of the early 1900s/late 1800s Mexican (?) transmasc who would threaten to shoot anybody who called him a girl. Looked like a total badass too. Please somebody know who I'm talking about.
I do know who you're talking about but can't remember his name.
His name is Amelio Robles. Just so people have the information ✨
Amelio Robles Ávila - Wikipedia
This is the colorized picture of Colonel Amelio Robles Ávila from 1915
I love how everyone in the notes is claiming that this post is about a different trans man. They were all like that back then.
was reminded of that youtube channel that records footage of that bridge that scalps trucks today. one of the fascinating developments that's happened since i last heard about it is that, in one of their many attempts to stop the trucks from being can-opened, they installed a traffic light that detects when a vehicle that's over the allowed height is coming and turns red so the driver can stop and hopefully notice the signage all around that's screaming "YOUR VEHICLE IS OVERHEIGHT TURN AROUND" and avoid an accident. However as a result sometimes drivers see the light turning yellow and IMMEDIATELY start flooring it to avoid having to stop, ensuring that the roof of their truck just gets fucking annihilated instantly. Really beautiful stuff you should check it out
