Mayhem has brought her bee full of drugs into the cardboard throne and it's safe to say she's having a good time in there.

[stitchposts]

what is your LEAST favorite stitch?

I don't like counted work at fucking all. So: the cross stitch.

[rabbitindisguise]

reading this as someone who does cross stitch but is scared of the other kinds of embroidery is like overhearing an incredibly tall and buff person say they have beef with Mr. Tom, the kitten that chills at the bookstore

[stitchposts]

FUCK Mr. Tom and his stupid little fluffy tail ok. And his little charted designs.

[the-dragongirl]

Okay, but this neglects the true villain of embroidery stitches: the French knot

[stitchposts]

Don't you dare malign my girl again

[im-a-dream-wizard]

Ok the french knot is very useful but it is a BITCH to do it consistently

[stitchposts]

[ao3-anonymous]

We talk about how this website’s hate mail game is insane, but this might just be a new level

[talbatross]

"skill issue" made entirely from French knots is a next level roast. no coming back from that one. damn

Child abuse is legal in the U.S. and I’m seriously sick of people pretending that it isn’t or that you can CPS a kid out of an abusive household or fuck, an abusive school. Circumstances that would’ve been considered assault, harassment, or even sexual abuse should they had happened between two adults are disregarded the moment it’s clear the victim is a child and the perpetrator is a parent/guardian. Corporal discipline is not better than child abuse, it sanctions child abuse, and it is, unfuckingrefutably, child abuse. The system is not built to help children in these circumstances, they cannot just go to a trusted adult, or a teacher, or the police, or anywhere else for fucks sake. It doesn’t work that way. CPS does not save you, even if they take you from your home! Anyone who was abused — with or without the marks to prove it — knows that.

hi i hope i get to be the one to break this news on Tumblr, because

I am reading Tim Curry’s 2025 memoir, Vagabond

and in it, he not only devotes a chapter to Muppet Treasure Island, but also references this very post

so, to recap

no, Tim Curry is absolutely NOT a Muppet; however

yes, he and Miss Piggy ABSOLUTELY fucked

The quote in this comic is taken from the Medecins Sans Frontieres (MSF) article published August 12, 2026, "Israel puts thousands at risk blocking crucial supplies for healthcare in Gaza." I want you to understand the impact of this on children in Gaza like my friend Ahmed (@ahmed-motaz). These genocidal policies are actively killing him right now. He has no access to food, medicine, or healthcare. Ahmed needs donations urgently.

[closet-keys]

Two days ago, @ahmed-motaz wrote, "My condition is deteriorating rapidly and becoming increasingly critical. I cannot afford the medicine that would extinguish this fire in my body, nor can I afford the food that would sustain what little remains of me. I am withering away, on the verge of death, because I cannot obtain the medicine and food that could save me. I beg you, with every drop of blood and every tear I shed each night, to help me." Please read his entire post. Then, donate.

[closet-keys]

Ahmed's campaign is vetted (gazavetters #198) and he has been fundraising on tumblr for years. @ahmed-motaz is still a child and has been desperately asking for help from us while enduring more trauma than anyone should experience in their entire life. Please help him.

[ahmed-motaz]

Guys, I feel like I'm living my last moments. My anemia has weakened me and I can't sleep because of the headaches I have. I'm constantly vomiting, and I'm afraid I'll die or faint. Please, guys, heIp me by d0nating so I can buy medicine and food to ease my pain. Please heIp me by d0nating ; please don't leave me to suffer.

I do think the ability to emoji-react is a net win for human communication. not only does it give you an outlet for 'I see and acknowledge this but don't have a verbal response' but it also adds a pleasing alethiometer element to things

my coworker announces that he's off to the dentist. someone reacts with a tooth emoji. is this a statement of dentist solidarity? a wish for my coworker to return with more (or fewer?) teeth than he set out with? simple word association? who can say

[softness-and-shattering]

Friend of mine calls it active listening. Ah yes we are speaking of tooths. I understand and respond. Here it a tooth image. I have heard you.

[spin-the-wheel-polls]

you were almost turned into a vampire, but before you could be fully turned, the vampire was staked. This left you with a vampire weakness, while still being human.

Spin the wheel to find out your weakness!

How much does this effect you?

Nothing changes

It's inconvenient but I can deal with jty

It will be hard to adjust but I'll figure it out

I don't know if I'll be able to live like this

Maybe I can find another vampire to finish the turning?

I might just kill myself

once you learn enough about evolutionary biology you start seeing ghosts everywhere

[approximateknowledge]

after the end cretaceous extinction event, basically all megafaunal niches were suddenly empty; and most got filled in some way. proboscideans instead of sauropods, carnivorans instead of theropods, ungulates instead of ceratopsians and hadrosaurs etc...

but the thing is: only *most* got filled to some extent

not all

because there used to be dragons

and now their niche is just *empty*

it's like i can feel the gap they left, in everything from open grassland ecosystems to isolated islands; the world we know is shaped by the absence of a truly big flying predator

no bird could ever fill their niche, because of plain and simple anatomical constraints

because they cannot use their wings to jump

birds could never be azdarchids

they could never be dragons

there are no more dragons

but there used to be

there used to be...

Something neuroscience-y that helps with prose: attention is selective. A character will not notice everything in a room. They will notice what matters to their goal, fear, desire, training, wound, or obsession. A jealous character notices hands. a hungry character notices food. A soldier notices exits. A lonely character notices pairs. Description becomes character when attention has a bias.
