Our nucleic acid recovery techinques found a great deal of homo sapiens DNA incorporated into the fossils, particularly the ones containing high levels of resin, leading to the theory that these dinosaurs preyed on the once-dominant primates.

what the fuck
#it’s NOT inexplicable#it’s bc someone based it on the unicode 6 yellow heart#which is colorless but shaded with halftone dots#and someone interpreted that like stubble#and drew this#which is SO FUCKING FUNNY via @animusbell
OH MY GOD
THE REASON THE YELLOW HEART IS SHADED THAT WAY IS BECAUSE OF FUCKING HERALDRY HATCHING ISN’T IT
FUCK YEAH AUTISM LET’S GOOOO
The haunting ancient Celtic carnyx being played for an audience. This is the sound Roman soldiers would have heard their Celtic enemies make.
Man if I heard that shit while descending upon a strange land with my brethren I'd straight up dig a hole to die in right the and there, fuck the emperor fuck the gods that's a warning straight from the bones of an older evil and whatever is coming is worse than death
#Sounds like 'They Know We Are Coming And Are Not Afraid' in a way that would have me shit my fucking toga
My anthro professor has three forbidden words for his essays: problematic, interesting, and large. Point being they’re all filler words, he wants you to just skip straight to why it’s interesting or why it’s problematic. But anyway, any time I disagree with him in class I say to him “mm, interesting, but largely problematic.”
best thing i ever accepted about people is that most people are just kind of gross like, physically
like most people have gross little bad habits and let the laundry go a little too long and sweat in weird places and are messy eaters and have weird laughs and are a little greasy and asymettrical and have stains and tears and wear on the things they own and its like literally fine and human. we dont need to worry about that stuff and frankly we should kill whoever is responsible for making us think humans are even capable of being perfectly polished made up hygeine machines 24/7. we are little animals we came from the dirt and sometimes you scratch your buttcrack or pick at scabs or what the fuck ever it is literally normal animal behaviour !!! let the soft animal of your body ect ect nd sometimes the soft animal of your body is a little yucky.

HOW?
WHERE IS MINECRAFT. I GOT A ZERO. WHERE TF IS MINECRAFT.
Just wanted to share this coming out story from a guy I saw on First Dates. He came out to his dad when he was 20, and then his mum when he was 21, after trying very hard to hide that part of himself and never really discussing anything like that in their household. Hearing his mother’s response after he explained all that was really gratifying. To all Muslim LGBT+ people, As-Salaam-Alaikum <3
Sex stuff you probably won’t learn from fanfiction and/or porn:
Erotic fic and porn can be a lot of fun! But if you aren’t being provided with adequate sex ed through other channels (comprehensive sexual education, frank and open discussions with trusted adults, etc.), turning to fanfic and porn for your understanding of sex is gonna leave some major blindspots and may leave you with some unrealistic expectations. While there’s nothing wrong with these kinds of erotica, they are fictional and tend to leave out a lot of the more realistic, human parts of sex - they serve a great purpose, but that purpose isn’t primarily educational. The following is an incomplete list of some things you should probably know about sex that a lot of fic and porn tends to leave out:
It isn’t always super hot or super sweet. Sometimes it’s super silly. Or sometimes it’s sort of mundane and you’re both simply scratching an itch. That’s fine too. (Hell, sometimes you’re talking about comic books while boning and your partner is laughing that you’re getting REALLY ANGRY about spider-man while they’re going to town on you.)
You will probably not climax at the same moment. It’s a sweet idea, but extremely hard to coordinate, and if all your concentration is going into coming at the exact same moment, you’re probably not enjoying yourselves as much as you might.
Sometimes bodies make weird, goofy noises. Squelching, slapping, air-escaping, un-sexy noises. It’s okay to laugh at this.
Hell, it’s okay to laugh during sex in general.
Sometimes you fart. Sometimes you fart while someone is going down on you and it is embarrassing as hell. This isn’t the end of the world. Embarrassing body things happen. Heck, sometimes, with anal, there’s a little poo. You get over it.
Sometimes sex is… kinda bad? This doesn’t mean it’s assault, or something traumatic – sometimes it’s consensual but just kinda bleh and not what you hoped for. The best thing to do (if you’re talking about sex with a partner and not just a hook up who you can not call back) is talk to them about it. Figure out what went wrong, what you enjoy and what you don’t, and communicate what techniques you do and don’t like. Also don’t be afraid to stop someone in the middle of the sex act you’re not enjoying and offer guidance on how to help make it good for you too. (Side tip: masturbation makes great research into what you personally do and don’t enjoy sexually)
You won’t enjoy every sex act. Not every body is wired to find every thing pleasurable. You might find anal does nothing for you. You may find g-spot stimulation just makes you really anxious that you’re about to pee. You may not enjoy giving or receiving oral. You’re not broken if you don’t like something that every pornstar or smutty fanfic protagonist seems to have earth-shattering orgasms from. Everyone’s got nerve endings in a range of places – it’s quite literally, different strokes for different folks.
On that note, not all orgasms are earth-shattering. Sometimes it just feels warm and nice. That’s fine too.
Sometimes, if you’re neutral on a sex act and your partner loves it, you can suck it up for them, and they’ll suck up something they’re not crazy about for your pleasure in return. But communicate preferences with each other! Know that when a partner does that thing you love that they don’t get much from, that it’s an act of care, and vice versa.
Falling asleep in each other’s arms right after wild passionate sex seems really romantic, but dried and crusty fluids are gonna be a bitch in the morning. Also, after sex, you should both (regardless of your equipment) go pee to clear out the urethra of any gunk or bacteria to reduce risk of a UTI.
Putting a towel down on the bed before sex means you don’t have to sleep on wet funky sheets. (it’s also verrrrrry useful for period sex if you or your partner menstruate.)
A lot of people don’t like dirty talk, or rough sex. Always ask first. (Fanfic on the whole does a better job than porn at showing communication, but a lot of it is still highly fictive on this point)
PROTECTION PROTECTION PROTECTION. Use condoms, dental dams, etc. not just to prevent pregnancy, but to reduce risk of STIs. (Yes, even couples with the same genitals who don’t need to worry about pregnancy).
Lube is great and very important, but random goopy things around you are not good lube. Random oils especially, since oil doesn’t flush out well and can trap bacteria inside the body – oil-based lubricant also degrades condoms. Use lube specifically designed for intimate purposes. Water-based and silicone-based lubes help sex feel really good!
Bigger isn’t necessarily better. A lot of people with vaginas don’t enjoy the feeling of being repeatedly punched in the cervix by a monster cock. Some people enjoy a larger size when being penetrated by an appendage or toy and some don’t.
Bodies are hairy. Genitals are hairy. You may get a pube stuck in your teeth at some point. If your partner is WAY fuzzier than porn ever led you to believe they’d be, well, that’s normal.
Not everyone loves the taste of ejaculate. Sometimes it’s nasty (flavor tends to vary from person to person depending on their diet, but sometimes you just really don’t like it no matter what. Some of us hate the taste of peanut butter. People don’t always like things). It’s okay not to swallow, or to request a penis-having partner warn you so they don’t ejaculate in your mouth (in fact, it’s polite for them to do the latter).
If you’re gonna have shower sex, get one of those rubbery mats for the shower floor that gives you traction, because otherwise it’s super embarrassing to call for an ambulance while dripping wet and naked because you slipped and accidentally broke something and your partner got a concussion while you were trying to bang in the shower.
Moaning and screaming wildly during sex is fun but it will make the neighbors in the apartments adjacent to you hate you. Make choices accordingly.
This is all excellent advice. I could throw in a couple more:
Keep reading
Good advice. Also:
Muscle cramps happen. If you’re in a weird position, your body may decide to object. Pillows for support can be wonderful things.
Anyone who finds towels aren’t enough, they make waterproof pillowcases you can get for like $10. Fold a bath sheet in half, slide the pillowcase in between the layers.
Related, there is no such thing as too much lube. (I wish fanfic writers would depict using lube more often, and I am looking at myself in the mirror on this one.)
An absolute must read, ladies and gents!
If sex is a newer thing to you or even if it’s not, please have a read of this! It’s pure gold!
This is also the reason I’m moving into Sex and Relationship Education (RSE) in the U.K. Education needs to be so much better regarding this area.
🖤
Wow. This was honestly so informative
Always reblog!
I don’t normally add onto stuff like this but Seriously.
Ten thousand thousand percent on the No Pain Required thing.
I cannot tell you how heartbreaking and frustrating it is reading in fanfic and porn and literally just normal young adult books that depict vague fade to black sex with virgins, and seeing the same shit over and over.
‘It’ll hurt at first but it’s worth it.’ ‘I can handle the pain, for you.’ ‘Slowly agony faded away into pleasure.’
Oh my god no. I had to explain to my best friend in high school (i was still a virgin i just spent too much time online) that sex wasn’t supposed to hurt and she was Blown Away.
Sex shouldnt hurt. There is a difference between slight discomfort as your body adjusts to something new, or even sharp sensations that are intense enough to make you pause, and Pain.
I remember reading a fic years ago and actually commenting bc i was so distressed they’d depicted the first time sex as ending in blood drops on the sheets, and how that was Super Normal. The response i got from the author broke my heart, bc apparently theyd based it on personal experience and every vagina having person they’d known had the same experience. And they were in fact very offended that i would even suggest sex shouldnt be like that.
Please no. It shouldnt hurt. You shouldnt bleed. The hymen is a muscle that shifts out of the way (if i remember correctly), not a tissue that is supposed to tear. If you are feeling pain when you dont wanna be, you need more lube. More time to get aroused. More stretching. You need a chance to relax your body. You may even need to see a doctor about vaginismus or something similar.
Hell, maybe your pentrative partner is genuinely a bit too big for you. Or maybe you ‘like the burn’, which is fine! But please be aware that if you are actively choosing to underprep because you want the pain there, then you are operating outside of the standard for average sex and this comment isnt for you.
I dont care if its the first time or the fiftieth time. Vaginal, anal, or oral. Penetrative or not. It is not Normal and Correct for any kind of sex to cause you pain.
gonna hop in bc i’m pedantic as hell and think hymens r interesting: the hymen is not a muscle, it is a membrane. however it does not need to be “torn” during penetrative sex!!! it does not cover the vaginal canal (except in rare cases, more on that later), it’s more a ring hugging the walls of the vaginal canal with an opening in the center. think similarly to a car cup holder that has those rubber tabs jutting into the center, like this:
except instead of tabs, it’s a continuous ring around an opening in the center. the hymen can range from thin and incredibly flexible to thicker and a bit more stiff, depending on the person. but with proper lubrication, relaxation, and stretching, it shouldn’t cause enormous amounts of pain or blood. a few drops of blood with minor, short-lived pain is probably nothing to worry about, as the hymen is pretty fragile and might tear a little bit when it’s first being stretched. this doesn’t happen to everyone, and it depends on what you’re doing and how you’re doing it, but it’s not necessarily a cause for concern.
however, intense pain or more blood than a couple drops is NOT normal. hymen injury can require surgical intervention in rare cases, and beyond that it’s just unnecessary. you do not have to endure pain to have sex, ever. also, pain and/or bleeding during vaginal intercourse can be a sign of other gynecological issues such as endometriosis. listen to your body, and if something that’s not supposed to hurt hurts, pay attention.
in a very small amount of people, the hymen is entirely absent. they just aren’t born with one. that’s cool too, it won’t cause any problems.
in very rare cases, the hymen has no opening at all and actually does cover the vaginal canal. in that case, it is most often noticed either shortly after birth or after puberty begins. during puberty, the main signs are menstruation not showing externally but cervical and pelvic pain being present. this is due to menstrual blood being unable to pass through the imperforate hymen. there are more symptoms, and having an imperforate hymen shares symptoms with other gynecological conditions, but that’s a very brief overview. imperforate hymens are treated via a surgical incision and SHOULD NOT be “broken” by penetrative sex.
another hymen variant is where the hymen has two or more openings, rather than one. it does not typically require medical intervention, it’s just how hymens develop occasionally.
basically: if your hymen is making sex painful, there is something else going on. whether you need more lube or more foreplay or a trip to the doctor, sex should not hurt unless you want it to. slight pain is normal sometimes because bodies are weird and things happen, but if it’s pain you don’t like that’s sticking around, do something differently and see how that goes. talk to your partner(s) and/or talk to your doctor. you deserve to feel good and enjoy yourself.
I know I’m not the best when it comes to writing intimate acts but this was actually really helpful and worth the read.

“If it’s about a dad dating other dads, how come some of them have kids???”
everyone stop reblogging the chains that don’t include the trans flag challenge
DO NOT DO THIS!!!
If a website has a paywall, like New York Times, DO NOT use the ctrl+A shortcut then the ctrl+c shortcut as fast as you can because then you may accidentally copy the entire article before the paywall comes up. And definitely don't do ctrl+v into the next google doc or whatever you open because then you will accidentally paste the entire article into a google doc or something!!!! I repeat DO NOT do this because it is piracy which is absolutely totally wrong!!!
Also do NOT append "12ft.io/" before a URL ! Typing an URL like this https://12ft.io/<URL> will redirect to a site that would break the display of the page by removing the paywall !
Honestly it's kind of prohibited to mash CTRL+P before some paywall windows can load in to get a PDF of the article. Really shouldn't be done tbh very dangerous🤷🏿♂️ ❌️

Yknow what I LOVE about the Star Trek fandom? It’s ANCIENT. I had a talk with a nice old lady at the old persons home that my great grandma is in and she noticed my Spock shirt and was like “oh I love that show I thought the premise was lovely” and you all know THE PREMISE is trekspeak for spirk and I was like “do you accept the premise because I do” and she looked at me with the eyes of someone who is reliving their otp moments and she said “the premise is all I wrote about, dear” and we just talked about spirk for a hella long time and I just love how age doesn’t matter in this fandom you can be ninety and still be the biggest spirk bitch ever how rad is that
I was today years old when I learned that particular euphemism
I was also today years old. Fandom codes man
Reblogging to spread knowledge about the Premise, because I absolutely love that bit of fandom, and I want to make sure that it survives. (and yay to everyone who is part of today’s 10,000!)
I’ve been into Trek a long time and I had no clue about The Premise, and I for one adore. ADORE. Also I shall be that 90 year old. About so many fandoms really.
