Yes! Right now it looks like no matter what this race is probably going to head to a recount with these kinds of close margins

So, every vote is really going to count. And according to the Director of Elections in Mesa County there are 800 cast ballots currently in need of signature verification:

#one weird counterintuitive aspect of being asexual #is that im more open to kinky or weird shit #im not HAVING kinky or weird sex it's all theoretical

Hey @rosierugosa I hope it’s okay that I stole your tags because YES.

Because sexual desire is so weird and alien to me, personally, I find myself more accepting of weird and alien sex: I’m definitely not a monsterfucker in that I don’t wanna fuck the monster, but I fully accept and respect all monsterfucking because hey, sex in general -- straight, gay, or otherwise! -- is already so weird to me. Wanting to fuck Chad McDude down the street is just as strange to me as wanting to fuck the mothman. So my attitude is...go for it, I guess! Here’s a water bottle.

[britkunoichi92]

Same here, I'm not afraid to admit I've written a couple of filthy what if fanfics about the evil demon bad guy who totally is a giant dragon looking thing and the OC ninja chick totally getting it on that one time. That's kind of hot. Wouldn't it be weird if they fricked? Three times? Because he wants her soul for some blood ritual and enemies to lovers?

But yeah agreed. Sex is weird, I'm weird about it, whatever.

Just go for it!

[demonicae]

How to spot the asexual: It’s all fun and games until you try to make them read self insert smut.

I will read the kinkiest filth, but try to mentally put me there and I’ll click away superfast.

[sunndoesntknow]

I wonder if this is where my deep-seated loathing of first-person writing comes from??? Reading/watching/thinking about sex that occurs between other people? All fine and good! Sex that happens to me, though? THAT’S A BIG OLD NOPE!

[mad-dyspunktional]

People have no idea what it's like for showering, something you're generally expected to do every day or at least every other day, to be actively hard instead of something you just do without even thinking.

[ptowzapotato]

They don't understand that you have to

1.stop what you are doing

2. Find a towel

2.5. put towel somewhere

3.take off clothes

4.put clothes somewhere

5.turn water on

6.make it the right temperature

7.get in shower

8.do shower things (usually like 6 steps but could be more or less)

9.turn off water

10.get out of shower

11.remember where the towel was

12.dry off

13.find clothes to put on

14.put on clothes

Like damn, either I could do all 14 of those things now, or I could do this thing I'm enjoying a little bit more.

(this is my experience as someone with ADHD, idk how it feels for other types of people)

[mad-dyspunktional]

Yep, you nailed it. My brain does not see this as one collapsed task that is so routine I don't have to think about it, all the steps are always there and overwhelming.

[sunndoesntknow]

Also, the indecision makes my brain spin around in circles, which makes me want to skip the whole thing entirely. Should I wash my hair or not? Do I have time to blow dry/style my hair after, or will I have to suffer through wet hair for the whole morning? Do I have time to deep condition, or is this a shampoo and run kind of morning?

And then, I’ve spent so much time with my brain doing the spinning rainbow of death that now I barely have enough time to slap deodorant on my pits, dry-shampoo my greasy hair, and run out the door before I’m late for work. ADHD fucking sucks, y’all.

Don’t confuse my hatred of the hyperwealthy for jealousy over what they have. I don’t want a six figure sports car, or a 40 room mansion, or a gold leaf truffle wagyu steak dinner. I want redistribution of wealth that allows for infrastructural support of all citizens’ basic survival needs.

[livebloggingmydescentintomadness]

while i completely agree with this statement, i feel like there’s this disconnect between the common man’s desire to experience what life has to offer and the hyperwealthy’s desire to exploit the masses in order to hoard resources to the active detriment of others.

i want to experience driving a fancy sports car down a big open road, the top down and the wind blowing in my hair. i don’t want a garage of 20 sports cars that i never touch.

i want a nice, comfortable, tastefully decorated house that’s big enough for me, my family, my pets, my hobbies, and any friends i might want to invite over. i don’t want a megmansion with more space than i could ever possibly use, that i only own because i want my house to be bigger than someone else’s house.

i want to experience eating the best steak dinner that the culinary world can offer. i don’t want to eat gold, which has literally no flavor, just because i can.

i want to travel to different cities around the world, see beautiful places, experience different cultures, and meet interesting people. i don’t want to buy up swathes of land and push natives out so i can build my twelfth house in hawaii or greece or somewhere else i’ll barely ever visit.

i want to dress in nice, well-made clothes that represent my style and make me feel good about myself. i don’t want to carry a thirty thousand dollar handbag or rolex watch just because it costs thirty thousand dollars.

i want to be able to give my friends gifts, i want to be able to invest in causes that i believe in, i want to be able to buy myself things like books, art, electronics, theater tickets, and nice food without having to worry about how much it costs. i don’t want to buy elections or shoot myself into space.

the average person’s concept of luxury is so far removed from the hyperwealthy’s everyday life that the distance cannot even be measured in ways that we can comprehend.

so while of course it’s more important that we work towards everyone’s basic needs being met rather than achieving luxury for ourselves, you, an ordinary person, shouldn’t feel guilty just for wanting to experience exciting and comfortable things. life should not be unyielding drudgery.

honest to god can’t stop thinking about this song about jeff bezos by philip labes (link takes you to his spotify). it’s such a good example of politically driven folk music.

[kaizykat]

Lyrics:

Jeff found a genie in a bottle Who said, “I can give you anything you ask” “You can have your wishes three And a million more for free It’s unlimited, just set me to the task.”

Well, Jeff thought a while, Said, “I want houses, “I want boats, I want fancy modern art, I want tickets to the Met, I want my own private jet, And a rocket into space just for a start.”

Well, the genie waved her arms and made it happen His every wish bolted from the blue And folks all over town grew enamored, gathered ‘round To admire the man whose wishes had come true

They said, “Let’s hear it for the man who has everything! By good fortune he’s been set so far apart.” “Yeah, let’s hear it for Jeff who has everything! ‘Cause his wishes are only at the start.”

Well, Jeff heard their shouts and he grew worried He said, “Everybody’s getting in my way.” The genie smiled as before, “You’ve got a million wishes more. You can even give a bunch of them away.”

Well, Jeff got confused and sorta quiet ‘Til he finally said, “I have just one wish more.” “I am satisfied, so I wish that you would die So you cannot grant wishes anymore.”

Well, the genie’s eyes got big and sad and shiny ‘Til she finally said, “Your wish is my command.” And with an effervescent sigh, she disappeared before his eyes And no wishes were ever granted there again

So, let’s hear it for the man who has everything! By good fortune he has set so far apart Yeah, let’s hear it for Jeff, who’s got everything! Every single fucking thing except a heart

CRYPTO DEATHWATCH 2022 LET’S GO

[yuri-alexseygaybitch]

[balisongbutch]

[artyphex]

I’m seeing people on Twitter already pissed that Critical Role is coming out on Amazon and not for free and listen I get it I’ve been in this boat too I was also raising eyebrows when I learned it would be on Amazon rather than released for free but the CR team literally sending an email with a guide on when to make an Amazon Prime free trial if you don’t already have Prime so you can get the entire show for free is pretty cool and also the best they can do? Like… when they made the kickstarter they thought they were just gonna make one twenty minute one-off episode they did NOT expect to make 12 million and they did not expect that 12 million to get matched by Amazon who gave them a full two season show with the potential for more if those two seasons are successful, like fuck man I would’ve said yes to that offer too! 

Making a show is expensive, making an animated show is VERY expensive, beyond that it needs to be hosted SOMEWHERE and SOMEONE has to fund it. I wish, desperately, that the Legend of Vox Machina could’ve been released for free on YouTube or some shit but that just isn’t how it works, that isn’t viable to make a show like this. 

I hate Amazon as much as the next person but this is already getting exhausting watching people conjure up outrage for something we knew was going to be the case for like two years at this point??? I’m sorry if you’re disappointed, but, I think acting like Critical Role are a bunch of money-hungry monsters isn’t just untrue it’s unproductive and unnecessary

daniel radcliffe calling out j.k. rowling on her bullshit is big dick energy

[wakingfromthewater]

One thing I have not seen mentioned in light of this statement, perhaps because it's just well known or perhaps because it's been forgotten, is that Radcliffe has dealt with this before. About 10 years ago his friendship with a trans musician named Our Lady J became known to the tabloids. They immediately published sensational articles calling her a transvestite and a drag queen (she was not), and speculating about the nature of their relationship. He responded to insinuating questions by simply being aggressively positive about what a great musician and good friend she was. They did at least one interview together for a queer magazine. This at a time when trans people were even more marginalized than now, and when he as an actor was finishing Harry Potter and under a lot of pressure to ~manage his image~ as he transitioned to an adult career.

TL;DR - Radcliffe has a record of not just saying nice things, but supporting trans people in his life.

[virginalbehemoth-moved-deactiva]

first they phased out the 22 episode season then they phased out the 13 episode season and now they’re phasing out the 10 episode season like can you guys go watch fucking movies or something and stop trying to “tighten” television

[boazpriestly]

We need to go back to more episodes because shows can’t be action or drama all the time, there needs to be breathing room for both the audience and the characters. There need to be good filler episodes where the characters get to just have fun and develop outside of the main story. Side quests and downtime are important to storytelling. We need to see the characters be regular people with regular problems in between the big stuff.

ENLìL Wind turbine

[meatswitch-deactivated20231107]

seeing this makes it look like such an obvious thing that should be installed all over the place.

[rookiecookie23]

“The turbine is designed vertically with long blades. It covers less area on the ground and is easy to handle. It can easily be assembled and disassembled which makes it durable. Solar panels are fixed at the top of the turbine to generate extra electricity. The device is capable of producing approximately 1 kilowatt per hour of electricity. A single ENLIL turbine can easily provide the average daily electricity needs of two households.

Apart from that, the turbine also contains inbuilt sensors like carbon footprint sensors, to detect earthquakes and IOT platform. The safety and comfort of the city are also ensured.

The turbine can be installed in parks, near seashores, rooftops, households but the roads are the ideal locations for the device. The big vehicles like buses can provide a lot of wind energy. The speeding vehicles on the highway can provide enough wind for these turbines to work all day and night without stopping. The energy generated can be transported to places or it can be used for maintenance of roadways.“

#… I did not know this was a movie remake?#however many years in the fandom and this was NEVER mentioned? ~ @smallercommand

Honestly I thought we all just knew. It was mentioned a lot in the early cast interviews/behind the scenes videos, and I reblogged a ton of those back in season 1 when the show first hit my dash.

[thesnadger]

Since once in a blue moon I actually discover a decent rule for adulting, and since I know I have followers a few years younger than me who are just entering the workforce, I want to tell you about a very important phrase. 

“I won’t be available.”

Imagine you’re at work and your boss asks you to come in on Saturday. Saturday is usually your day off–coming in Saturdays is not an obligation to keep your job. Maybe you were going to watch a movie with a friend, or maybe you were just going to lie in bed and eat ice cream for eight hours, but either way you really, really don’t want to give up your day off.

If you consider yourself a millennial you’ve probably been raised to believe you need to justify not being constantly at work. And if you’re a gen-Z kid you’re likely getting the same toxic messages that we did. So in a situation like that, you might be inclined to do one of three things:

Tell your boss you’d rather not give up your day off. Cave when they pressure you to come in anyway, since you’re not doing anything important.

Tell your boss you’d rather not give up your day off. Over-apologize and worry that you looked bad/unprofessional.

Lie and say you’ve got a doctor’s appointment or some other activity that feels like an adequate justification for not working.

The fact is, it doesn’t matter to your boss whether you’re having open heart surgery or watching anime in your underwear on Saturday. The only thing that affects them is the fact that you won’t be at work. So telling them why you won’t be at work only gives them reason to try and pressure you to come in anyway.

If you say “I won’t be available,” giving no further information, you’d be surprised how often that’s enough. Be polite and sympathetic in your tone, maybe even say “sorry, but I won’t be available.” But don’t make an excuse. If your boss is a professional individual, they’ll accept that as a ‘no’ and try to find someone else. 

But bosses aren’t always professional. Sometimes they’re whiny little tyrants. So, what if they pressure you further? The answer is–politely and sympathetically give them no further information.

“Are you sure you’re not available?” “Sorry, but yes.”

“Why won’t you be available?” “I have a prior commitment.” (Which you do, even if it’s only to yourself.)

“What’s your prior commitment?” “Sorry, but that’s kind of personal.”

“Can you reschedule it?” “I’m afraid not. Maybe someone else can come in?”

If you don’t give them anything to work with, they can’t pressure you into going beyond your obligations as an employee. And when they realize that, they’ll also realize they have to find someone else to come in and move on.

[yournewapartment]

IMPORTANT!! PLEASE READ!!

[kagetsukai]

Just like with many other parts of life, learn to say ‘no’ to people. You are important. Don’t kill yourself for another person, esp. if they are your boss.
