i wish it was socially acceptable to let out the most agonizing scream from time to time like i know it wouldn’t fix anything but it would certainly make me feel better

The point of officially naming a pet is not to actually use that name but to have a baseline from which to come up with every conceivable nickname to call them instead.

You bury a seed not because it looks nice in the dirt, but because the limbs that branch out will look nice in the sky

Don't "noo please not neil" or "the only man I trusted" it, that man is on tumblr because he loves the mass of adoring fans screaming about his genius. He is not a down to earth quirky blogger, he is the stereotype of asshole author that takes advantage of people blinded by his fame

#there was a second that that was me #and then I saw their ages and I’m like #yeah no I’m not stanning someone who sees no problem with that #can’t believe this news is what made me return to tumblr

akajustmerry

please be honest, how long have you been aware of the Palestinian occupation? (tag your age now and how old you were when you became aware, if you like.)

all of my life (learned as a child)

learned at school or university (most of your adult life)

learned about it within the last decade, but before October 7

learned of it because of/after October 7 events

i was going to reblog this long post abt different signs u might be addicted bc some of them where helpful indicators and i think people should be aware of how their substance impact their life so they can make informed decisions but like so much of it was just wrapped in this veneer of judgement and like underlying view that "acknowledging your addiction" = "going sober"

obedientlyviolentshepherd

okay yeah thats a helpful lil guage for if your depedent on your drug of choice

now just wait a minute

obedientlyviolentshepherd

all of you are so fucking correct. the response to addiction doesnt have to be "oh all these other things (coffee, weed, cigarettes etc) are no different than other addictive substances so we should all adopt a mentality of hate the sin and love (pity) the sinner" instead of "people self medicate with a variety of substances and that can lead to physical and mental dependencies and people should be able to make their own decisions of what they put in their body and should be supported in doing so in ways that can reduce harm"

but thats a lot less dramatic and condescending tho so *shrugs*

Hypothetical question:

There is a book that is 200 pages long. If you read the entire book, you will 100% get a neurodegenerative disease and die in 1-5 years. Everybody knows this. There are studies. Every reputable organization, even very pro-free-speech ones, are like "no this specific book WILL literally kill you."

There are no consequences to reading the first page of the book. There are studies. The only risk is that you might be interested enough that you'd like to read the rest (especially if you didn't know about the effect.)

(More details: The effects of reading past Page 1 are hotly debated - you do need to read all 200 pages to get the disease, but some kind of compulsion kicks in over time and makes you much more inclined to finish the book. Reading to page 10 is a little dangerous, reading to page 50 or past is very dangerous, but it's kind of unclear how much. The compulsion is NOT measurably present from the first page.)

Every government has banned this book, but it's pretty easy to find copies online or (with a bit more work) in person. By all accounts, the writing is quite beautiful. It is even easier to find copies of the first page, since everyone agrees it's not dangerous.

Would you read the first page of the book?

Yes, I would read the first page

I wouldn't now, but probably I would have chosen to read it in the past

I would have read more than the first page

(this is curiosity / idle research for a fiction project)

#not even the first page #i'd get even more curious and would probably want to read up to 10 pages #maybe even more #so no #but #i would probably look up if reading its summary would affect me in any way #surely someone who read the book to completion would've written a summary or review of it?

What part of getting a needle scares you the most?

The pain

The anticipation leading up to it

The fact a foreign object is entering your body

The fact it's piercing your skin

Seeing the visual of it in general (have to look away)

The fact it's putting in/removing something from your body

Bloodborne illnesses

Nothing! I'm not scared of them at all.

New and refined needle fear poll in honour of me getting my flu shot today. I did not realize needle fear was so varied. I thought everyone just feared the pain like me...this is so interesting...

If you fucks actually go through with not voting on your next USA president elections and subsequently lead Trump to power again.

Yes. Yes I'm going to blame every single American for that. Collective responsibility and all that jazz.

ohsalome

Explaining in simple terms: if you don't vote for Biden because "he is murdering palestinian babies", you will get Trump as a president, who, being an open and proud islamophobe, will murder even more palestinian babies.

It is no good situation when you have to choose between two shitty candidates. But you have a two-party system.

russia has previously aided trump during elections, and they will do so again. A call to boycott the elections = a call to support trump

You are in no position to afford the privilege of being idiots.

almostdefinitelydying

Also this.

Also, a lot of his goons have been filling a LOT of important spots in the military and civilian fields to have positions available for trump to fill in with his loyalists and to easier do a hostile takeover if he wins the election.

IF YOU DON'T VOTE FOR BIDEN YOU WILL GET A DICTATORSHIP BY TRUMP AND WE WILL ALL BE FUCKED

wintersmitth

I don't know how many times we have to tell people to make everythingin their power to stop Trump from coming to power again. USA will be fucked. Ukraine will be fucked. Palestine would be fucked. We don't know how many other countries will be fucked.

Trump's presidency already gave cart blanche for the international far right rise, and I don't think we need to spell out to people that the state of the world today is directly credited to Trump's presidency, his incompetence, him being Russian puppet, etc etc.

As much as I am actually an opponent of the whole idea that USA is responsible of everything in the world, it does have a huge influence on international politics scene.

SO GO VOTE.

And since USA is a democracy, then, again, y'all are responsible for the president you elect.

Also, in 2016 Russia went hard on surreptitiously spreading propaganda to get people not to vote for Clinton. We already know that Russia is using bots to spread misinfo about the Israel-Gaza war. I don't think it's a coincidence that we are suddenly seeing tons of posts about how we shouldn't vote for Biden in 2024. You are not immune to propaganda.

striving-artist

This is why I'm always bringing up the nuance. Because Biden and Trump are not equally bad. They are not even in the same orbit of bad.

Biden is a leader too moderate for my tastes, who I really really wish wasn't so old. The things he has done have been unexpectedly good despite being hamstrung by the opposition. Love him? Nope. But Biden is making sucky choices from an array of sucky choices, domestic and foreign.

Trump is calling his opponents Vermin, outright explaining that he is 'retribution' and cracking jokes about victims of political and racial violence. He brags about being the one to kill Roe v Wade. In 2020 he asked why the cops didn't just shoot the protesters in the legs. He wants to deport immigrants, including all dreamers, and his plan starts with 'put them in camps.'

I know most people don't track political news. I get it. Its nauseating. But this idiot's gotten stupider, and he's gotten more hateful.

We are, horrifyingly, going to have to watch another Trump v Biden election barring some act of god. (on Nov 5, jfc) And I will walk you through your specific hesitations about Biden if that's what it takes to get through to you. We don't get to vote for a candidate we love. We get to vote for one who won't actively kill american citizens.

nightlyponder-archived

not the scare quotes around Biden murdering Palestinian babies as if he isnt actively supporting Israels actions right now and funding it and calling the genocide of Palestinians the "Israel-Gaza war" and acting like Clinton didn't win the majority of votes but sure lets keep calling the usa a democracy even though we know it isn't.

"youre responsible for the president you vote for" but also somehow anyone who votes for biden isnt responsible for him currently finanically and politically supporting Israel committing genocide right now.

#not american so my opinion is worth jack shit but oh my god #the idea that the president who supports the killing of children and genocide is the lesser of two evils is just... wild to me #but to be fair i don't remember a us president who ever condemned zionists #so

Reminder that in Gaza alone, around 90-95% of the water supply is contaminated and unfit for human consumption...

If you dont believe israel is capable of this evilness (that they've been enforcing for OVER 50 YEARS) read it for yourself, from AMNESTY INTERNATIONAL

#i've been crying about what's happening in gaza for over a month now but for some (sick?) reason remembering this made me laugh

I work in a kitchen. We are always told to not just stand around, that’s rule number one. Even if something’s on the stove, usually you can do something else while you wait for it.

EXCEPT

If it’s milk. “You stand right there and watch over it, do NOT leave.”

What’s even better is if you’re forced to leave because you need something from the fridge or something. So you dash into the back and get it and if someone wants to ask you something you just go “MILK! ON THE STOVE!” and everyone jumps out of your way and goes “oh shit, run!!!”

It’s the funniest thing I’ve ever encountered at work
