Hey wanna see a bunch of graphs about who swears the most in TMA

[2gayowlsinatrenchcoat-deactivat]

Too bad

So there are a total of 131 swears in tma

Shit is said the most by a landslide with 50, second place is tied between ass and fuck each with 19

(note: members that are not part of the archival crew have been left out for simplicity’s sake)

Now it LOOKS like Jon swears the most, and in terms of pure numbers he has, 44 times in fact, HOWEVER, Jon has been in every single episode. So when you account for that by diving the ammount of swears by the number of episodes they’ve been in you get your Swear Per Appearance ratio (Or SPA ratio)

Witch is when we see that Georgie swears the most, with her swearing 43% of time, with Jon actually on the low end.

in conclusion while at first glance it may seem like Jon has the dirtiest mouth, its actually Georgie, once you account for their SPA ratio, thank you for coming to my…*checks notes* shitty ted talk

[2gayowlsinatrenchcoat-deactivat]

I spent way too long on this

Elias and Sasha only swear once so it wasn’t worth making a chart for them, but Elias had shit and Sasha had bitch

Another fun fact, only 9 of Martins 16 “shit”s were from the slaughter episode, turns out he has more colorful language than we all thought

Vandalism doesnt change the system, it just slows it down and costs money. And no costing money won't change things either. It just goes on the national debt.

vegans make peace with honey

no shut up do it

[calder]

vegans will pretend not to hear when natives tell them their agave products are unsustainable because they have whimsical feelings about, and i cannot stress this enough, the freedom of hive insects

[blackwashedmax]

Honey is literally murder but go off

[kasaron]

Prove it.

[blackwashedmax]

They literally puke their guts up to make your honey

[kasaron]

I have not seen any evidence tonsugges they are harmed or die in the process of production. They do regurgitate the nectar as part of the process to concentrate it into honey (an interesting process) but they do not suffer any injury during this process. If they did, the cost to produce honey, which is done naturally as a measure to survive over winter and through times of lower availability, would outweigh the benefits. If you kill several bees to produce enough honey to make one more bee, It makes no sense. Any animal that did that would die, even with human intervention.

Do you have any sources which suggest otherwise? I’d be interested to hear of this (relatively publicly available) information was false or misunderstood.

[blackwashedmax]

Bee farmers use whats called a honey maker. It’s a crude devices. It similar to a meat grinder. They force the bees in and grind them up. What comes out is a paste. That paste is later filtered into what we know as honey

[hematite2]

This is the funniest thing I’ve ever read

[leonardo-nierman]

@zoologicallyobsessed please show us pics of your bee grinder

[gemstone-gynoid]

they might be falsely thinking about a honey extractor machine. but all these do is you place the beehive frames inside and a motor rotates it at a speed that removes the honey, which is then tapped through a tap at the bottom. 

[darkenedyeastextract]

…do they think they put bees in that and spin them around until they vomit…?

bad and naughty bees get put into the b e e c e n t r i f u g e to extract their honey

[bastlynn]

Vegans coming after beekeepers is one of my major teeth grinding annoyances. For many reasons, because there’s so many lies. And to go one step further because it’s such a waste. You see, the strongest vegan argument is that they don’t want to exploit animals or take from them without their consent.

… but… Bees consent. NO. I’M NOT KIDDING.

How? Bee hives aren’t kept on leashes. They’re outside, the bees can travel miles every day. They follow their queen. Who is also outside, not on a leash, and can travel miles every day. If she doesn’t like the hive for any reason - for example: it got too hot, too cold, too messy, too filled with sugary stuff and they need more space… then the queen leaves. And with her the hive.

The queen stays in the hive because the hive is the best place to live. Period. Done. End of. If the hive is staying with the beekeeper it’s because the keeper is doing their job correctly and keeping them happy because the bees can, and do, leave bad beekeepers.

Of all the animals we have domesticated as livestock, bees are the ones you can most easily argue are consenting participants in their keeping.

A lot of people are genuinely terrified about what will happen if Donald Trump wins reelection and it's really weird how some of y'all are acting like everyone begging you to vote for Biden is some privileged, rich, out of touch, neo-liberal when a lot of them are just vulnerable people who don't want to like...die in a brutal civil war or watch all their remaining rights get stripped away by an increasingly authoritarian Republican Party.

I do not know how to express to you how much worse it can get.

[bundibird]

NonAmerican perspective here, but like....... do some of you really not see how bad it already is? Look back at 2016 and picture what you thought Trump's America would look like, four years into the future.

Did the 2020 that you predicted back in 2016 look like 197 thousand Americans dead of a virus that your leader deliberately downplayed the severity of for months? Did it look like your entire eastern coast in flames, the air across half the country unbreathable, the skies a hazy orange from the smoke and the glow of the fires, and your president saying "climate change has nothing to do with this"? Did it look like over two thousand missing children, who were taken from their parents by "the authorities" and then lost by those same authorities? Two thousand children in the care of a government agency have gone missing, and has your bossman even commented on it, or has he just continued extolling the dangers of immigrants?

Did the 2020 you imagined look like months of civil unrest, because police murdered yet another black man, and instead of condemning the act, your leader said "the answer to this problem is worse police violence, and to beat the protestors into submission."

Like, fuck me. Do you not see how bad it already is? This is what's happened under Trump in four years, and some of you are really out there going "hm yeah but Biden has weak policies tho." Would Biden take a global pandemic seriously? I suspect he would. Would Biden be open to working to stop climate change? He's already said loads about what he'll do to combat climate change. Would Biden completely fail to address the fact that women are being forcibly sterilised in ICE and children are being assaulted and going missing? I would be really surprised if he did nothing about that. Would Biden react to public outrage over cops murdering a civilian by sending in the national guard to attack peaceful protesters, assault journalists, permanently blind innocent civilians, and pepperspray children in the face? I really doubt it.

But Trump has done all that shit; is still actively doing all that shit, right at this very fucking moment. And some of you won't vote for Biden because you're not really a fan of his????

"Oh, Biden's too moderate for me" BIDEN IS TOO MODERATE, SO YOULL GO WITH DONALD "THERES NO VIRUS," "ITS BECAUSE THEY DIDNT MANAGE THE FORESTS WELL ENOUGH," "IMMIGRANTS ARE CRIMINALS," "SEND IN THE TROOPS" TRUMP INSTEAD?? You wanna let that guy win by default, to get another four fucking years, when he's already done this much damage?? WHAT THE FUCK, GUYS

[inushiek]

As much as I hate it, we realistically have two options for US President. Biden or Trump. Voting for a third party or independent is a LOVELY idea, and I admire the commitment, but PLEASE, for the love of any and everything you hold dear, vote for Biden if you don't want Trump to win.

I understand the "I don't want to just vote for the 'lesser evil!'" mindset. I DO. But 2016 was NOT the year and this is NOT the year. Getting Trump out of office HAS to take priority this year. We HAVE to rally behind a single person who ISN'T Trump to boot him out.

Even if you don't like Joe Biden, he is UNFATHOMABLY better than Trump and is the only candidate who has a realistic chance at beating him. He isn't perfect, I know, and I can't force anyone to vote one way or the other (or at all!!)

But please. PLEASE. Vote for Biden.

Don't vote for a write-in. Don't vote for a third party or independent. Don't stay home and NOT vote to try to send a message about not liking either Biden or Trump.

2020. Is. Not. The. Year.

Holy BALLS is it NOT the year.
