"Cool motive, still murder"
cast iron? yeah thats a pretty common spell to learn
you come onto my post and be funnier than me
skillet issue
the thing is is that you'll be like. 11 years old and someone will tell you that you have to shave your legs. either it will be your mum or a friend or a mean girl in the p.e. changing rooms telling you how gross it is that you have hair on your legs. so then you ask your mum about it and she says yep you have to take this razor blade and drag it across your skin under running water and just hope you don't cut yourself too badly and you have to do this every single week and maybe more frequently than that and you have to do that for fucking ever. the rest of your fucking life. because the hair that grows naturally on your legs is gross and ugly and people will laugh and boys won't like you! of course boys have hair on THEIR legs. but that's normal and even attractive and it's just not the same for you. and a few years later they'll say well you obviously should also be shaving your armpits. and then it's your arms and then it's that you have to wax your upper lip and pluck your eyebrows and ewww why do you have hair on your fingers and your toes.. you need to shave that too. and then suddenly you need to buy spray that will make invisible hairs on your face visible so that you can shave that too! and it's expensive and time consuming and difficult and it HURTS but they just say beauty is pain babe! and you're not allowed to say that maybe if beauty is pain then you don't actually want to be beautiful
and i'm so fucking tired of girls who do shave being defensive when this topic comes up because then i have to say well of COURSE it's your personal choice whether you want to shave or not! no offense! maybe it makes you feel empowered! you do it for YOURSELF! because that's bullshit and i actually DO think you should stop shaving your legs because it's not fucking empowering it's insane. if you give it more than a minute of thought it can't possibly be empowering. you're in a PRISON!!!!! and i was in the prison too okay and i know it seems hard to break out but i promise you it's not. and the more people we can break out of the prison the easier it gets for everyone else i swear to god. please
there are people with sensory issues who genuinely prefer smooth skin for purposes of self-soothing touches but I get that this post isn’t trying to make a point about that and otherwise I very much like the cut of OP’s hairy gib
Haven't shaved my legs in 7 years (and I have very dark hair), haven't shaved my armpits except once in the past several years, don't pluck my eyebrows anymore cause if Frida Kahlo can have a hairy brow why not me???
You feel self-conscious at first but then it's like no one notices or cares. I've never gotten a single comment on it except from my mom, and my mom hasn't mentioned it in a few years.
It feels awesome to not shave :D
Never cheat on a girl with serious power tools.
I'm reading a study on how nurses define the term 'drug seeking', and what makes them more likely to put the 'drug-seeker' label on a patient's charts and. well. let me just throw down some quotes
"Needy, unable to cope" (<- you try coping with chronic pain)
"Comfort seeking" (<- you mean.. having a preference for not being in pain.. how criminal)
"Using or trying to obtain drugs on a long-term, chronic base" (<- do you understand what 'chronic pain' means.)
"Asking for pain med then returning to sleep."
"States he’s level 10 pain, but does not appear to be in pain (or ‘5= on appearance)." (<- it is well-known that chronic pain patients tend not to display pain in the same way as acute pain patients)
"Dramatic response to pain" (<- notice how this directly contradicts the comment above. you cannot win)
"Gets IV med, then leaves unit to smoke or walk around" (<- wow requiring medication and then going off to do something you needed pain meds to be able to do is so suspicious)
the article itself put it best when it says: “some comments depict patients trying to apply sound pain management principles, such as continuing to take medication for persistent pain”. no wonder all the other literature on the matter says that women of colour are the most likely group to be labelled drug-seeking. this shit is entirely vibes-based (read: based on the prejudices of nurses and doctors)
Okay mutuals, I got a question for you:
Are "pan" and "skillet" interchangeable in casual* conversation?
Yes
No
No 'nuance' because this is for a spousal debate and I refuse to get bogged down in semantics!
...buuuuuut, if you think I need another poll option, feel free to suggest it.
*CASUAL conversation! Not applicable to technical culinary discussion! Fellow autists, please run the scenario as if you were talking to someone who doesn't deserve to be enlightened about how wrong they are.
Reblog for sample size! These results so far intrigue me.
To me its a frogs and toads sorta situation.
Cast iron tends to be skillet, common tends to be pan.

Behold: a very expensive cat
I have already, with the help of many wonderful people, raised $700 towards the x-rays she needs for her back and tail problem. I used it to pay down the credit line I have with my vet so the money could not go to anything else.
Then we had to take her to the emergency vet for gastrointestinal distress that was not going away, even after she'd seen the regular vet the day before and gotten medicine.
It may be hard to see without zooming in, but that is a bill for $950.75. We didn't have this money and couldn't use the credit line since this was not our regular vet. I had to go into my overdraft, and my mother had to pay what I couldn't. Which leaves me...
Well. It ain't good.
Usually I'd be like "Oh it's fine, on payday we'll sort things out" but on top of everything else, hubby Jon has been sick and has had to miss several days of work, so his next two pay cheques are going to be sparse.
I just spoke to the vet, and he is concerned about Java's continued lack of appetite. If she isn't eating normally by tomorrow, we'll need to do an ultrasound to see if there's something else going on. That will cost about $650. Once you add taxes, that'll more than eat up what we'd raised for Java's x-rays. Which also still need to be done. And also her spay appointment had to be moved back because it's risky to do while she's sick
It's all a mess
I know I've already asked for a lot lately, between Casey having 2 emergency surgeries in January and Java needing special care and also now apparently having the mystery tummy ache from hell, but I don't have anywhere else to turn
If you can pitch in to help us survive through these vet bills (not to mention things like paying the mortgage and getting groceries, difficult with reduced pay already) we would be extremely grateful

Please, if you can even reblog, it would mean a lot.
Thank you for reading
“It is troubling to see that attitudes towards gender equality are not more positive," said Julia Gillard of King’s College London.
>Particularly among Gen Z, our data shows an interesting duality: they are both the group most likely to agree that women who have a successful career are more attractive to men but are simultaneously most likely to agree that a wife should always obey her husband and that a woman should never appear too self-sufficient or independent.
Incredibly stupid things are happening
I know these two things seem contradictory, but there’s nothing a conservative man loves more than to tear off an angel’s wings. There are plenty of women that would willingly choose the obedient SAHM lifestyle, but these kinds of men always seem to go for the opposite. Why? Because it’s a power play. There’s no need to break a horse that’s already broken, and that would do nothing to validate that man, his ego, and his place in a world he sees as designed for him.
Another factor is that these men avoid dating conservative women who already want the lives they want them to have because those women's standards are too high. Specifically, such women expect to be the obedient stay at home mum, but they also expect their men to be the masculine ideal from the other half of the equation -- they tend to look down on their men if they cry, they expect them to be able to financially provide for the household, they want them to uphold their end of the bargain. You see this again and again in groups of conservative men who go out of their way to date liberal women; there is a power play, to tame someone untamed and bring her into line with his expectations, but there's also her lack of expectations of him. They want a woman who will do all the household and keep the home but ALSO will not reject him for not being able to afford to finance the family alone. They want a woman who'll respect and obey him but ALSO be fun and relaxed and let him show whatever emotions he wants. They want the Perfect Trad Wife who won't expect him to be the Perfect Trad Husband.
You see the same thing in conservatives who complain that all their leftie friends are abandoning them, but who won't just hang out with right wing friends instead. They don't want to hang out with other righties because a group of righties quickly becomes judgy and hateful and socially competitive, and is only fun to hang out with when they want to vent, whereas their leftie friends were more relaxed and fun. They want license to be unpleasant and expect unreasonable things of others, but want the people around them to be pleasant and not expect unreasonable things of them.

i cannot begin to explain the emotions i feel every day knowing that this post i made in the middle of playing tf2 when i was 16 is going to be the one thing of mine that has made the largest impact on the world by a fucking mile
this is so interesting, because I have OCD and an autoimmune disease that causes inflammation, and those things are 100% related. when my immunosuppressant meds are working, my OCD stops. and when I’m unmedicated it’s like my brain is on fire. the one time I actually saw a doctor for my OCD and went through multiple sessions for it, it was allllll about breaking habits and learning self control, and would you believe it, it didn’t help one bit.
I don't talk about it very much because...well, it's not really a part of my life anymore, but I used to have really, really bad OCD symptoms (never formally diagnosed though) and when I started taking Adderall for ADHD they almost completely vanished.
I mean...I'm still kind of a fundamentally obsession-driven person, but the subjects of the obsessions aren't overwhelmingly negative anymore.
I feel like there could be a lot of different causes of OCD
Better solutions than age verification BS
Teaching children/teens basic internet safety rules such as not giving out personal information (name, age, etc.) and internet stranger danger
Informing parents/guardians about the existence of the YouTube Kids app before they hand the unfiltered iPad to a kid to watch
Informing about YouTube Teen Accounts
More online teen spaces such as MMOs, pet sites, and RP forums with site rules to keep things appropriate
Emphasis of report and block buttons if something said in said spaces makes someone uncomfortable and/or breaks site rules
Game support forums not being locked to Discord servers and easily accessible to the entire userbase
Parental blocks that restrict downloading dedicated "adult community" apps
In mixed age online spaces, adults being less hesitant about using built in content filters such as tags and mature content labels
Parents/guardians understanding age ratings on items such as movies and video games, especially R and M
Parents, guardians, and trusted adults (ex. teachers, librarians) being available to listen and discuss when a topic is confusing (and not immediately get mad and complain about the material)
Better access to youth library materials (ex. young adult)
More/better offline teen spaces and access to hobbies without too much unnecessary expense
Please. PLEASE. CALL YOUR CONGRESS PEOPLE. INCLUDING REPUBLICANS. ESPECIALLY REPUBLICANS. Kosa passed by half the votes and is going to the house, mostly democrats voting NO, while most Republicans voted YES. We are so CLOSE to getting them to stop this, the calls are working but we need more people on this and putting pressure on their republican representatives. Even one or two calls WILL make a difference.
BOOST NOW!!!!! because if we lose this we lose our anonymity we lose all our rights to privacy seriously if ever there was a time to call them it is now!

Hey, look, I don't normally really post anything here, but I think this is important. California is planning to introduce a bill to ban under 16 kids from social media. It has support from the governor, who has said he would sign it if it made it to his desk. This is not how you protect kids, I have someone I know who has social media, and even their parents know to add basic parent control. If this passes, I don't know want to do. So please, if you live in California, please contact your senators or anyone, and tell them to oppose this bill. Link is down below for more information.

Quote from the article:
"An operating system provider shall do all of the following:"
"(1) Provide an accessible interface at account setup that requires an account holder to indicate the birth date, age, or both, of the user of that device for the purpose of providing a signal regarding the user’s age bracket to applications available in a covered application store.
"(2) Provide a developer who has requested a signal with respect to a particular user with a digital signal via a reasonably consistent real-time application programming interface that identifies, at a minimum, which of the following categories pertains to the user."
