Reblogging this again as it’s more important than ever with the AI takeover
creature lab assignment: design a non-traditional centaur! so here’s my…lumberjack moose man, of course. (in retrospect, i’m not sure how he puts his hat on)
my prayers have been answered
thank you so much for this glorious moose centaur.
Bless you. <3
I’m pretty sure I’ll make one of these because MOOSE ARE AWESOME
Clearly its a hat with button flaps. It goes under his antlers so it doesn’t come off in the wind or when he’s off doing manly moosetaur things.
also I’m picturing him prancing through the woods singing “I’m a lumberjack and I eat hay!”
“I’m a lumberjack and I eat hay! Antlers are cool but get in the way!
I cut down trees, with axe and saw I swim in stream and sea. I like to eat fresh pinecones And very hot coffee!”
When you’re actually old enough to know the lumberjack song so you sang the last comment
So wait are livestock guardian dogs to their flocks like… Clark Kent among the residents of Smallville? He’s been here since he was a baby, we all know him, and he’s… generally one-of-us shaped, uh, approximately. And then when something goes wrong he suddenly leaps into action and does some terrifying impossible shit none of us could do. And then comes back home and settles in like nothing happened and he’s one of us again.
Hmm.
HMMMMMMMMMMMMMM.
"IS THAT YOU?!?! HAVE YOU COME TO PUT ME OUT OF MY MISERY!?!"
Etho’s 54 minute Decked Out run
When you’re casual scrolling tumblr on a Monday night and Shadow shows up just to call you out
I demand that tumblr bring the crabs back. Tumblr should be the one and only social media with crabs that you can summon at the click of a button 24/7, 365 days a year. I think this would save this website.
WAIT THERES TUMBLR CRABS!?!?
WHERE ARE THEY?!?!?
Let's make this a reality
Reblogging for the added comment
Don’t return ebooks or audiobooks you’ve consumed on Amazon and Audible
Amazon and Audible made it into their policy that you can return ebooks and audiobooks and get a full refund.
They actively promote this, making their book shop into a book lending service, de facto a library you subscribe to. That’s their business plan to encourage subscribtions.
The dirty thing, however, is that Amazon and Audible are making the authors pay for each refunded item. They will detract money, income, royalties, from the authors’ account. They’re not hurting from the refund, the author is.
Look, no-one is saying you’re not allowed to return an item if you’ve read the first 50 pages or listened to the first 45 minutes. Maybe the style is not your thing. Maybe you don’t like the narrator’s voice. Maybe the quality of the writing drops severely after chapter three. Go ahead, if the product is bad, return it.
What I’m talking about is that no one should be able to listen to a ten-hour audiobook or read through nearly an entire novel and still get a refund.
Most of the readers don’t know who’s paying for this business plan. It’s not Amazon and Audible, they’re still keeping your subscription money. It’s the authors.
Spread the word.
Yeah, in all honesty, I would legit rather you pirate my series than do this.
I had someone read and then return the entirety of one of my series last month, and I don’t make enough from my books for that sudden loss of income to not be noticeable. So, I was going ahead going “oh, okay, when Amazon pays out for this month, I will make X amount, which means I can afford Y”, and then in one day, there was a significant drop from someone returning an entire series.
Like, I need to be able to plan ahead when it comes to my income, so honestly, if your plan is to buy and then return my series as a way to get it for free, please just pirate it instead of fucking me about. Or, you know, join my beta/ARC team or wait for me to make the series Pay-What-You-Want on my website. Or, hell, get it from your local library! It’s not like I don’t make it easy to get my books for free/cheap…
Reblogging again because I just woke up to “you have earned negative money so far this month” which is just a super great way to start the month… /s
suggestions for gender neutral version of mom/dad? something less formal than just ‘parent’
please note that while progenitor, guardian, spawnpoint etc are all respected titles, they are more the equivalent of mother/father than an affectionate nickname you would scream through the house multiple times a day. gimme something we can use people
I just tried to combine the words and got “dom” and i cant-
but wait, if we reverse ‘dom’ you get ‘mod’. I suggest we use ‘moderator’ as a gender neutral version of mom/dad
Admin and op would work makes them sound powerful and in charge of everything
Admin (respectful) Op (derogatory)
i was going to add something else to this but instead i got to thinking and i was like huh. what could you use.
in most languages the word for ‘mother’ usually starts with an M, because phonetically [m] is one of the easiest sounds for a newborn to make when they start babbling, and mothers tend to be the one most around the child. so in my mind that crosses M off the list, because it’s automatically associated with a feminine figure
similarly, ‘father’ tends to start with D, T, P, or B. (phonetically these sounds are very close together; [p, b] and [d, t] are all only different because of being voiced or unvoiced.) these are also phonetically easy letters and ones kids pick up on earlier.
now the hard sounds for kids are the following: [ɹ, d͡ʒ, tʃ, θ, ð] or in normal speak: the English R, the “j” or “dge” sound in “judge,” the “th” sound in “thigh” and the “th” sound in “the.” and we don’t want kids unable to say their parent’s name for years, so those are also off the list.
additionally, it’s easiest for young kids to just repeat the same sound twice rather than figuring out the tongue gymnastics of putting different sounds together, which is why kids will say Ma-Ma or Da-Da and not Ma-Mo or Da-Po. and we’ll want to stick with low back vowels like “ah” and avoid ones like the hard “i” or “ee.”
so what does that leave us? when we want a sound kids can learn easily and early but don’t want to just put a funky spin on “mama” or “dada”?
my suggestions: G, K, W, L. i personally lean towards W and L. they’re called liquids, since they’re the consonants that kind of aren’t consonants, and kids (and ESL learners) will tend to swap out the English R for a W or L until they can learn the R.
if i ever have a child, they’ll start calling me Wawa. then when they get older, they’ll call me Wala, or maybe even Wally.
and then, once they’re finally phonetically developed, they can call me by my true title as their nonbinary guardian for their 18+ years:
Waluigi.
I’M SORRY I’M JUST SWEATING FROM MY EYES
i didn’t think i’d be bawling my fucking eyes out but here we are. love ya steve 🥺💔

Guys I found the only good thing on Facebook.
Update:
Oh fuck they’re inclusive ants, too?!?
Image Descriptions
[Image 1: A Screenshot of an invitation to a Facebook group named: “A group where we all pretend to be ants in an ant colony.” Under that is a post in the group that reads: “We reached the center of the Earth. Now what?” Four people commented saying one word each in this order: scurry, dig, work, melt. These words are in capital letters and have spaces between each letter.]
[Image 2: Another Screenshot of a post in the group that reads: “It has come to my attention that when we put the spaces in-between letters it makes it difficult for visually impaired ants to know what we’re saying and so I was wondering if we could try to make this group more accessible for them. (The text to voice can’t figure out what we are saying with the spaces) (Picture of an ant for attention)” This text is then followed by a close up picture of an ant.]
[Image 3: A screenshot of some comments on the post in Image 2. Five people commented: adapt, adapt, inclusion, love adapt, adapt. These words are in capital letters and have no spaces between the letters.]
End of IDs.
Please do not reblog this post without image descriptions! The irony of sharing undescribed images that talk about inclusivity for the visually impaired is… Painful.
I’m in this group!! It’s great!
ADAPT
INCLUSIVE ANTS, ANTS FOR INCLUSION
MUST REBLOG INCLUSIVE ANTS WITH DESCRIPTIONS.

This makes me cry, actually.
Just to add on. Libraries in many cities have 3d printers you can use that charge you only the price of materials. So if you can't wait for the shipping from the engineers, try your local library.
This is amazing, the power of media and good people will always be inspiring
