I also want better public transport that doesn't rely on me having to have a car.

Why do people stop commenting on fics if they’re more than a week or two old? Please comment on old fics. Tell me you like my one shot from 2014. Tell me you like my old multi-chap I finished in 2016 that I spent a year writing. I will be fucking thrilled.

Fics are not social media posts. There’s no “stalking” someone’s “old posts”. They’re meant to be found and enjoyed years down the line. No need to be nervous.

AO3 is a library. Except in this library you can tell the writer how much you loved their story. They love when you do that. Please do that, no matter how old that fine story is…

we are already living in the cyberpunk future and i know this because within a span of 3 days we went from this tweet:

to thousands of people making phony images and replying to them with their passionate desire to have them as a tshirt to overload the bots with nonsense and junk and send out warnings to shoppers like this:

and now we even have people replying to pictures of baby yoda with “i want this on a tshirt” knowing how ravenous disney is being with copyright in hopes to get the stores taken down altogether

i dont know what it is about stuff like this and the whole turn mei into a symbol of hk protesters thing but, its really reassuring for some reason

Fun fact! Water actually turns “blood red” when it is contaminated by sulfur creating sulfuric acid. And scientists have discovered that around the time of the plagues a volcano went off that disturbed Egypt’s environment. So the plagues are scientifically proven. The other parts of the plagues are explained by the sulfuric acid river making the animals leave the river and escaping into the human population.

WHY DIDNT ANYONE TELL ME THE PLAGUES WERE PROVEN

kvothe-kingkiller

if anyone wants a full list heres how they happened:

basically they all stem from a massive eruption of a volcano on the island of santorini off the coast of greece. the ash then floated over to egypt which kickstarted the plagues

1) blood: the ash carried the mineral cinnabar, which has the capability of turning water red

2) frogs: the ash also had many toxic and acidic substances so naturally, all the frogs are gonna flee the river

3) lice: given what was going on insects would have burrowed into dead animals/peoples skin and laid eggs, which then hatched

4) beasts: everything is getting poisoned from the ash and toxins, causing animals to freak the fuck out/die

5) pestilence: toxins again

6) boils: the ash would have caused storms that carried acid rain which when it fell, would irritate peoples skin causing boils

7) hail: the storm again

8) locusts: again with the insects and the amount of dead bodies and such which attract more insects. a lotta insects basically.

9) darkness: the ash covered the sky, blocking out the sun

10) slaying of the first born: given that children’s bodies were found in higher numbers than others, some archeologists think they may have been sacrificed to stop all the destruction, but they aren’t 100% sure about that. this is just me but I would say another possibility is that babies/kids are a lot more susceptible to toxins and shit, so while an adult may have been fine or gotten a bit sick, it might have been very dangerous/deadly for kids or babies

the volcano would also attest for the parting of the sea weirdly enough. the red sea was in fact the ‘reed’ sea, and was very shallow, probably waist deep or so. given the amount of shit dumped into the ocean from the volcano, this wouldve caused a tsunami to head towards egypt. the water would get sucked out from the reed sea right before the tsunami hit, letting people pass it easily, then the actual tsunami would hit, fuckin up anyone who tried to follow.

another theory is that the red water was caused by algae, which would cause the frogs and stuff to jump out as well. the algae also carried substances toxic to animals so if they ingested any they’d get sick and die, so more insects. in this theory there was a sand storm coincidentally that caused the rest

The volcano wasn’t ON Santorini - it WAS Santorini, then called Thera. It completely blew away the Minoan settlements on the island and was one of the largest eruptions in human history.

The tsunamis from the Theran eruption devastated Crete, weakening the then-powerful Minoan civilization, leaving them open to being invaded by the Mycenaeans.

The volcanic winter it created devastated crops in China leading to the fall of the Xia Dynasty.

The abrupt and catastrophic loss of the people of Thera may have also inspired the myths about Atlantis.

I love that if you really boil all this information down, what you get is something approximating “the sinking of Atlantis caused the 10 Biblical plagues of Egypt” which is, like, one of the greatest mythological mash-ups I have ever heard of.

Why the hell are rich people so boring with one-upping each other? My bf showed me a little documentary clip about this artisan making tiles by hand using a technique that’s gone largely unchanged for 200 years, and I’ll admit my brain rot but my first thought was damn, if I was rich I’d commission a whole wall off this guy. Fucking imagine having a gorgeous tile wall in your house and telling your neighbour like

Yeah these are all handmade, there’s just straight-up one fucking guy in Egypt who’s a master of this specific technique and you can’t get these anywhere else. Copy that you bland-ass McMansion-having fuck.

Ever since the time they threatened to close all their soup kitchens in NYC if a law that did something as simple as allow companies to extend spousal benefits to their employee’s same-sex domestic partners I have refused to buy from them or donate to them.

It’s that time of year again! In case people don’t know… the Salvation Army is shitty peoples.

Also, the married women are not paid (and therefore can’t qualify for assistance if they should ever divorce, etc). And worth “of course” less than a man.

“ In the Army’s case, the agreement for compensation is that the officer allowance be paid jointly to the husband—the check is written in his name. Officially, the wife is a “worker without expectation of remuneration,” and her husband receives 40 percent more of an allowance as a married man than he would as a single man. “

To my American followers. Don’t support Salvation Army. Not only are they homophobic as shit, but I’ve also heard that they abuse a lot f homeless people. They only care about money, please don’t donate to them and give your money to charities that actually help people

Never don’t reblog.

whitmerule

To be clear: this is specific to America. It is not necessarily going to be true for all countries. Please don’t boycott your own salvos without proper investigation: in many countries they do good work.

colorsofsocialjustice

Sorry but no, the Salvation Army was founded in the UK and even there still are homophobic as hell, to the point that they still refuse to let out gay people hold positions of power in the organisation. This is a callout for the whole group, not just the US. - Purple

Here's the article, very well worth the read

I was reading a book about serial killer profiling, and it mentioned that dobermen were the vogue "tough dogs" of the 80s, while pitties are sort of the modern big tough guard dog. Is this true? Have any other dogs had this sort of label in a particular time period?

A lot of the pit bull fear is relatively new. I believe there was a TIME or Sports Illustrated article in the 80s/90s that specifically targeted pit bulls as dangerous dogs. GSDs, rotties, dobies, and even bloodhounds have all had their time as the trendy, “dangerous” breed. The dumb thing is, pit bull terriers don’t even make good guard dogs. True APBTs, staffies, AmStaffs, etc were never bred to be aggressive toward people. The problem is, people get dogs that look like this, that are mixed with who knows what, from shitty breeders, that are often bred to be tough/aggressive:

None of those dogs are pit bulls!!! Pit bulls are energetic, powerful, and prone to small animal aggression, but they were never bred to guard. Pit bull type dogs were originally bred for bloodsports involving other animals, not people. They are not necessarily an easy dog, but they were not bred to be guard dogs. These are TERRIERS with a whole lot of athleticism and strength behind them, so I hate seeing them pushed as the perfect all around family dog for every single person, but they are definitely victims of misinformation.

I am 100% not an expert on breed standard so I’m not saying these are perfect examples, but these are closer to actual APBTs, staffies, and AmStaffs:

The point is that these bulky guard dogs are deviating a lot from the breed standard, so why do they still get lumped together as the same breed? So the big problem today with “pit bull attacks” is that a. a lot of dogs are labeled as a pit bull that are not b. pit bulls are popular with backyard breeders. Breeding a very large number of poorly bred dogs either for color (i.e. blue nose pits) or toughness (i.e. all of the dogs in the first photo set) creates a lot of really unstable/unhealthy dogs. It’s also very sensationalized. “Pit bull mauls owner” gets more clicks than “dog mauls owner”. If a dog is tested as 80% lab and 20% pit bull terrier, guess what it would get labeled as if it attacked someone? The other issue is that “pit bull” is a group, not a breed. That’s like saying “setter” or “retriever”. There are at least 10 breeds, plus all their mixes and anything that that remotely resembles one of them, that get labeled as a “pit bull”. Of course there are more dog attacks from these dogs, we’re literally comparing an entire group of breeds to the population rather than just a single breed like we do for any other dog.

This is probably deviating a lot from what you actually wanted to know but yes, other breeds have had their time as the “bad dog”. One thing I find interesting is to look at the “mean” dog in a movie and see how it varies by decade. That gives you kind of an idea of what breeds people thought were “tough” or “vicious” at the time.

Purple Oceans

For about seven-eights of the Earth’s history, its oceans were extremely rich in sulfides. This would have prevented animals and plants from surviving in 70% of the planet. But it was a great habitat for photosynthetic bacteria that require sulfides and sunlight to live. Known as purple and green sulfur bacteria (because those are the two colors it comes in) these single-celled microbes can only live in environments where they simultaneously have access to sulfides and sunlight.

That they thrived in the sulfide-rich ocean has been confirmed with the finding of fossilized pigments of purple sulfur bacteria in 1.6 billion-year-old rocks from the McArthur Basin in Northern Australia.
