I set my Discord banner to random photos of deer being silly on trailcams resulting in multiple people asking about My Collection so here are some of the finest photos from my unreasonably sized gallery of goofy deer trailcam pictures

Did you know deer will sometimes just straight-up box/slapfight with each other which often involves standing on two legs and it looks really silly

Here's some kisses

Some weird chaotic ones. I call the first one of these four "girls night"

bonk (this is one of my most favorites)

This one's my halloween/autumn banner

“Many people seem to think it foolish, even superstitious, to believe that the world could still change for the better. And it is true that in winter it is sometimes so bitingly cold that one is tempted to say, ‘What do I care if there is a summer; its warmth is no help to me now.’ Yes, evil often seems to surpass good. But then, in spite of us, and without our permission, there comes at last an end to the bitter frosts. One morning the wind turns, and there is a thaw. And so I must still have hope.”

“By necessity every book must have at least one flaw; a misprint, a missing page, one imperfection…. The Rabbis … point out that even in the holiest of books, the scroll resting inside the Ark, the Name of Names is inscribed in code so that no one might say it out loud, and chance to pronounce properly the Word that once divided the waters from the waters and the day from the night…. As it is, some books, nearly perfect, are known to become transparent when opened under the influence of the proper constellation, when the full Moon rests in place.

“Then it is not uncommon for a man to become lost in a single letter, or to hear a voice rise up from the silent page; and then only one imperfect letter, one missing page, can bring him back to the land where a book, once opened, may still be closed, can permit him to pull up the covers around his head and smile once before he falls asleep.” —Midrashim, Howard Schwartz

I think more creators should openly tell their fans to fuck off and stop being weird

[derinthescarletpescatarian]

We can’t. If you seem a bit mean to someone then somebody lies that you’re a pedophile in a callout post and you start getting death threats everywhere.

[roach-works]

dude, this happens anyway. you might as well tell people to fuck off while you’re at it

[seananmcguire]

Part of the issue is that it’s not just callout posts, though.

Ages ago now, I had someone ask me a question about a character death, and the only accurate answer I could come up with was stolen from Stephen King–“I didn’t kill her. She just died.” This had the benefit of being 100% true! I didn’t kill that character out of malice or to be hurtful. The story, which had me so tightly by the time she died, told me she died, and so I dutifully wrote it down.

The person I answered did not like this. And after calling me a flippant cunt whore and various other nasty things which hurt my feelings but did no damage, went around one-starring all my books, claiming that they contained things they didn’t.

This hurt my overall ranking, and may very well have cost me readers. And that was one person, who decided I was being disrespectful, not even mean!

Quite frankly, neither my career nor my constitution can handle the consequences of being sincerely mean.

[dduane]

This.

And—I’m just going to whisper it—if you’re a female writer and you dare speak your mind too loudly, the blowback is twice (or three times, or ten times) what you’d get if you were male. The inevitably gender-linked descriptor “meltdown” comes to mind.

So forgive us for mostly staying as publicly courteous as we can, and only sharing what we’re actually thinking with those already committed to causing us no more difficulty than we already deal with on a day-to-day basis.

the political backlash against masks in any context is going to leave so many people with weird lung problems that have nothing to do with COVID

[chaumas-deactivated20240115]

what was said: wearing a mask significantly reduces the likelihood of catching or transmitting airborne disease but does not completely prevent it

what was heard by the American public: it is vitally necessary to sneeze into each others’ mouths whenever possible and to inhale industrial dust and chemical fumes as quickly and in as large of quantities as you are able

[chaumas-deactivated20240115]

had a contractor show up to remodel my friend’s bathroom yesterday and when told that the contract required him to wear a mask inside the home he claimed that it would make him pass out, so he chose to leave and not do the job

my good sir if you are in such frail health that wearing a mask will render you unconscious you have no business working a job where you are required to do shit like work with paint and chemicals and grind PVC…

[frostcoyote]

That's a big problem with any sort of anti-science stance, it will rapidly expand out past its origin point in order to maintain itself. Admitting masking can be useful under any circumstance will sink just about any rationalization or justification for not wearing one for Covid. So instead they double down. See also: vaccines.

[chaumas-deactivated20240115]

yeah there are people starting to oppose vaccinating their dogs for rabies 🙃

[chaumas-deactivated20240115]

anyway there is gonna be a whole generation of professionals dying of silicosis and mesothelioma in the coming years because they either refused to wear masks out of some warped desire to Stick it to the Libs or because their employers and trainers and coworkers downplayed the necessity of PPE

please read the best twitter story i’ve seen all week

bringing this back because it becomes possibly funnier the second (third forth) time around

luffy really did break zoro like a wild horse. gave him a lil treat (the rice balls from the ground). gained his trust (saving the swords). displayed dominance (refusing to take no for an answer, showed no fear). displayed strength (standing in front of the bullets and beating the marines up). respect (for his dreams). and when luffy gave him the choice — die here or come w me — zoro said you are my only rider (the only person who can order him around).
