I feel like this tweet matches up well with this one

[byjove]

if your man sends you an evil ass text message and you don’t know how to respond, come to me. I will ghost write your response.

[byjove]

I just saw a text thread where a dude said “I wish you were more beautiful so I wasn’t embarrassed to post you” and his girl responded with “oh” OH????????? I would have told her to respond with “I wish your dick was as big as [HIS BEST FRIEND’S NAME] but neither of us are getting what we want out of this relationship so I think we should split” and then advised her to block his number and go to Target to sniff all the candles

[byjove]

if your partner starts undermining you and trying to plant insecurities by implying you’re not attractive enough, not smart enough, not interesting enough, not fun enough, that is a major red flag. they are trying to control you and lower your self esteem so you’ll feel indebted to them for putting up with you and you’ll stay even if you’re unhappy. end the relationship immediately. I also recommend taking a swipe at them on the way because these people like this guy will learn nothing from hearing “you’re really toxic and you hurt my feelings” but the implication that you’ve seen his best friend’s dick and it’s bigger than him will effect his psyche immensely.

everyone else always seems to fucking get cool shit and i always get like “gel manipulation” and “using dust along w/ your fighting style”

[bogleech]

My first one was “poison smoke manipulation” which is acceptable then my second one is “Family Creation” which gives Princess Bubblegum’s candy kingdom as an example, so, I guess I’m making everything I’ve ever drawn into a real thing and if anyone doesn’t like it I’m going to asphyxiate them with gas.

[sun-lighter-665]

Or asphyxiate your citizens like princess bubblegum! Thats also an option

[bogleech]

Oh no, they’d be allowed to do anything they want, who am I to impose rules or morals on them??

Every summer I forget how much I fucking love spiders I’ve drunk one every day this week

[goblinwithblankets]

Drinking spiders??!

[derinthescarletpescatarian]

You put ice cream in a glass and pour soft drink over it. It creates a thick layer of delicious foam on top of a sweet, creamy drink with ice cream in it.

And yes I did attempt to get a picture by googling “Australia spider” like a fucking moron.

[thecybird-deactivated20250228]

I think that’s called a float in the states. Although we usually plop the icecream into the glass after the soda. Similar effect though.

[derinthescarletpescatarian]

We wouldn’t be able to call it that because the word is way too easy to confuse with a floater, which is a meat pie floating in a bowl of pea soup. It is every bit as delicious as a spider though. I should get some pies and pea soup.

[kitstacean]

I would like to announce that this is not a standard Australian food, it’s exclusively a South Australian one and the rest of Australia is just as appalled as the rest of the world.

[derinthescarletpescatarian]

It’s not our fault that the rest of Australia is incorrect about food.

OK Tumblr Geriatric Ward, let’s talk about your posture-

there are things you should be doing now to prevent yourself from starting to look like 🥀

Why does it matter? Future you would like to avoid the pain, limited motion, and fall risk that goes along with worsening posture.

What’s the focus?

1. Keep the flexibility in your spine

2. Stretch the muscles in the front

3. Strengthen the muscle in the back

Here are some simple things you can do daily while sitting and when you get up to go into the bathroom or the kitchen

Keep the flexibility by doing these repeated movements: 10 repetitions several times a day

The goal is to give yourself a double or triple chin. Keep your nose pointing forward, don’t let it tip up or down

Thoracic extension- use a chair with a seat back that comes up to the level of your shoulder blades. Try to bend back over the top of the chair without arching away from the seat back and without extending your neck. If the pressure from the top of the chair is uncomfortable you can place a towel there

Stretch the muscles in the front by using a door frame. This one will feel good afterwards

If this isn’t enough of a stretch you can do one side at a time. If you have the right arm up step forward with the right foot and turn slightly to the left. Then do it on the other side.

Strengthen the muscles in the back by squeezing your shoulder blades together for a count of 10 and then repeating 10 times. You can do this several times a day Hint: Don’t lift your shoulder blades up

There are lots more exercises for strengthening your back muscles but this is a good starting point and easy to do. I like doing it while driving

Tips:

Do the best you can

If it hurts stop

Envision future you saying thank you each time you do one of the exercises

[brightlotusmoon]

NOTE: I can do most of these with the cerebral palsy. In fact, a lot of these little exercises are automatically part of my physical therapy. My problem is I already have hyperlordosis, spine arthritis, and cervicogenic headache. These have helped me at least try to have a posture.

I CANNOT STRESS ENOUGH HOW GOOD THIS ADVICE IS
