The story of Balto is interesting. He led a team of sled dogs across the Alaskan wilderness in the dead of winter with diphtheria antitoxins to stop an outbreak in Nenana Alaska. Diphtheria is a deadly infectious disease that could wipe out a third of a town’s population. It is mostly unknown to the public today because of vaccines. Balto’s body is preserved in the Cleveland Museum of Natural History.

[your-naked-magic-oh-dear-lord]

He’s a big hero of mine!

[pugcrumbs]

Let’s not forget Togo! Who, at 12 years old during the serum run, lead his team 200 miles through much more dangerous conditions during the first leg of the journey before Balto ran the last 55-mile stretch.

[space-buns]

Togo and Balto didn’t bust their asses for dying children for you to turn around and not vaccinate your damn kids

andrew came downstairs from the office to give me a hug and seemed really worried about me and it turned out that i had reblogged a picture of a jellyfish with the tag “sometimes i wish i could be this” and while i had meant “beautiful, ethereal, and full of light” he had interpreted it as meaning “brainless and totally free of the burden of consciousness”

[unpretty]

this was the jellyfish

[portentous-offerings]

you can be both brainless and beautiful, thats why we love a good himbo

You fuckin’ bet I do.

[transmasckurapika]

A terf posted this calling it "gaslighting" and "terrible" but I thought it was sweet so I'm reposting it from them.

[jabberwockypie]

People really do just throw around “gaslighting” to mean “making me consider how my actions impact other people” and “telling me things I don’t like hearing” and “calling me on behavior that harms other people”, huh?

You are a genetic researcher who has come across a universal truth. The DNA in all living creatures are attempts to build a single design. Viruses and phages have been stopping this process intentionally, resulting in different species. You now know what that design is and can complete it.

Former girl scouts: yeah idk it just kinda seemed like house wife training

Former boy scouts: yeah it was basically lord of the flies with a homophobic youth pastor. One time we [most fucked up story you've ever heard]

[yooo-gehn]

We have romanticized the idea of romance, and it is cancerous. And when you raise children in that world, where everything points towards love, and everything is perfect on the outside, when we become an adult for the first time in our late teens and our early 20s, we’re so terrified. We’re so trying to be an adult, that some of us will take the wrong person, the wrong jigsaw piece, and just fucking jam them into our jigsaws anyway, denying that they clearly don’t fit.

I’m gonna fucking force this fucking person into our lives, because we’d much rather have something than nothing. People are more in love with the idea of love than the person they are with. 55% of marriages end in divorce. 90%. Nine Zero. Percent of relationships that started before they are 30 end. If those were the stats for surgery, none of us would fucking risk it. But because it’s love and we’re stupid, we just lie on the operating table like, “Maybe this time I won’t die inside.”

There’s nothing wrong with being alone. There’s nothing wrong with taking time for yourself to work out who you are, because how can you offer who you are if you don’t know who you are?

[levonsnape-deactivated20230929]

I love The Golden Girls.

[gholateg]

Ya’ll don’t have any idea how fucking brave and needed these plot lines were.

This was before Ellen came out.

This was before civil unions.

This was before Don’t Ask Don’t Tell.

This was when your ass could be fired, blacklisted, and shunned with no legal protections for even being hinted at being gay.

And the Golden Girls said “Fuck you, Fuck this, we’re doing it anyway.”

[silenthillmutual]

I think it should be noted that Blanche’s quote about AIDS is also “It is not god punishing people for their sins” and that the episode also deals with slutshaming.

[darkravn]

I don’t know if people realize how much activism these women did for gay right and during the aids crisis. If you think about it they were all long established in Hollywood and Broadway. They had tons of friends personally affected and dealing with the aids crisis. Estelle Getty lost a nephew. I think they helped plant seeds in people who watched Golden Girls that helped make things a little more normalized and mainstream.

My ancestors, watching me dump an entire stick of cinnamon, two cloves, an allspice berry, and a generous grating of nutmeg into my tea, sweetened with white sugar and loaded with cream, while I sit in my clean warm house surrounded by books, 25+ outfits for different occasions, and 6 pairs of shoes, in a building heated so well I have the windows open in mid-autumn:

Our daughter prospers. We are proud of her. She has never labored in a field but knows riches we could not have imagined.

[sighinastorm]

I like this so much better than the idea that our ancestors would be embarrassed or ashamed of us for being “soft” or some crap like that.

My ancestors, watching me stuff my face with fried chicken while studying: She eats like an imperial concubine and can afford to study like am imperial scholar. WE MADE IT

they should invent water for men

[doubleca5t]

Good news OP

[thehornedwitch-deactivated20211]

While this is a funny joke, as far as I'm aware this company is actually pretty cool, and the purpose behind the Liquid Death (sparkling or still) water is quite wholesome.

Part of the reason for it being a tallboy is that aluminum cans are more recyclable than water bottles, potentially infinitely so, while water bottles either have a limited amount of recyclability potential or aren't actually recyclable at all.

The other reason is to literally make it more fun and appealing to drink something other than alcohol at concert venues. Part of getting over addiction or even getting away from a culture that is doing you harm is, in the US at least, heavily associated with becoming "no fun". The idea here is to make water as fun in terms of packaging as alcohol, so people who are going sober, who can't drink, or who are the Designated Driver don't have to feel like they're relegated to the "no fun zone" forever and still get to order something with a silly name. We had these at my brother's wedding as an alcohol alternative and tbh it was really neat.

From the Liquid Death website:

"Most products in the health and wellness space are all marketed with “aspirational” fitness models and airbrushed celebrities. And many of us are tired of it. Why should unhealthy products be the only brands with “permission” to be loud, fun, and weird? And let's be honest, almost all marketing and branding is just theater. So we’re going to treat our theater like a movie theater and have more fun with it."

So yeah! If you want a neat alternative to buying bottled water, this isn't a bad alternative. Also, if you feel like you miss the feeling of opening a can of beer and drinking one, especially with carbonation, this could help curb the urge without having to substitute soda.

[krakenartificer]

Oh. So it was a stand against single use plastic, alcoholism culture, and eating disorders disguised as fitness.

saying this, she casually threw aside a large rock

[bisexuanal]

Those stories like “car thief steals car without realizing baby in back, returns baby safe” “burglar finds cp stash on computer turns guy in”

And everyone is always so shocked and amazed but like. It really shows how much we’ve tied morality to legality. Legal corporations exploit and harm people every day and we’re all used to is. A petty thief has normal morals and everyone is like shocked.

Amazing fact but ... ppl who turn to crime to survive don’t suddenly become feelingless sociopaths and tbh I’d rather hang out with “blue collar criminals” all day than the top brass of any one company wtf because chances are I’ll find better ppl among the car thieves lmao

[ralfmaximus]

My favorite story is the one where a sexual violence crisis center was broken into and all their computers stolen. Then a few hours later the thieves broke in AGAIN and returned everything with a note: “We’re sorry. We had no idea what you guys did.”
