[phantomrose96]

me at 10: well really what I want to do with my life is cure cancer, and be an extremely famous scientist, and discover things that change the world, and win a Nobel Prize, and be a novelist, and

me at 20: so what I think I want is to have a successful career, and work hard for promotions, and establish myself in my industry, and make a good life for myself, and sure it's not curing cancer but it's more realistic

me at 30: I want to pet my kitty cat. I want to go on long bike rides when the weather is nice. I want to roll around on the grass. I want to cook good food. I want to clean my house. I want to get a good vacuum. I want to sleep when I'm tired. I want to never open Microsoft Teams again.

Soulmates are not your ~other half~, that’s just nonsense. You are a whole person already, not half a person. A soulmate isn’t even inherently romantic. A soulmate is just the other sock in a matched set. You’re still a whole, complete sock on your own, you are perfectly functional paired with any other sock, it’s just that it’s even better when you match. A soulmate is literally just the person (or people) who makes your soul go “!!! Same hat!!!” and wave excitedly.

I’VE BEEN LOOKING FOR THIS POST OH MY GOD

[battlechick]

this is literally the sweetest thing ever 🥺

[despazito]

vegans who refuse to even eat backyard eggs….why

[despazito]

people who think its unethical to eat chicken eggs are like people who think bees should keep all their honey. they literally produce more than they need and your unwillingness to even buy local means you are doing nothing to help them, support your small farmers you heathens

[feminist-james]

This is not true.

1) honeybees do not produce “extra honey.” And beekeepers don’t take some of the honey, they take all of it.

2) chickens have been artificially selected from naturally producing eggs once a month to producing eggs every couple of days. Their bodies are not sustainable and the health complications of this rapid egg production kills chickens.

[spoonfulofwhoopass]

Hey idk who like. Lied to you about the way honey farms work, but could you stop spreading misinformation? Are you a beekeeper?

Because I am!

Beekeepers make sure hives are fed before there is pollen in the air, protected from predators and the elements, and have enough honey to sustain themselves. We don’t take all of it.

But overproduction of honey leads to stagnation in the hive. It puts stress on the queen to lay eggs, and when they inevitably fill up all their space with honey (instead of filling up the multiple empty, clean boxes of frames beekeepers might put on top of the main hive box), the queen can get so stressed she dies. If there’s a spike in the weather and the hive hasn’t prepared new queen brood, that’s it! The colony is dead. Because there wasn’t enough space for eggs and honey in the hive.

Beekeepers take excess honey. We are constantly monitoring the state of the hive, checking for parasites, analyzing the eggs for diseases, and making sure they are fed and healthy (usually with sugar water and pollen substitutes until they have made enough honey to sustain themselves in the early spring months). If a queen dies prematurely, we make every attempt to replace her to save the colony.

I know there’s an urge to patronize everyone who works in the farming industry, but try to understand the differences between small scale agriculture and industrial farming. There IS a difference. And stop spreading misinformation.

If you’re this passionate about ethical consumption, look into some of the ecofeminist research on non-hierarchal interspecies relationships (working on building animal-human relationships in a non exploitative way).

But yeah! Stop spreading misinformation! Please 🐝

[fslut]

Also if I can harp on the chicken part?

Yea Chickens are some of the most abused animals on big factory farms and I’ll be the first to admit it’s criminal and more needs to be done to regulate this.

Yes selective breeding over time has caused an increase in the ammount of eggs produced by chickens and factory farms have some messed up practices to get more eggs from them including forced moutling.

THIS IS WHY YOU SUPPORT LOCAL FARMERS AND THEIR EGGS

Many people take to raising their own hens because of America’s immoral treatment of hens in factory farms like you’re not helping the poor chicks by starving these farmers financially you’re just hurting the one people trying to change things and making the OPTION of cage free organic cruelty free eggs even harder to find

[harvestspriteirl]

Yeah, as someone who like… lives on a chicken and duck farm… Coops help keep wild animals out but birds are kinda dumb. And chickens literally do not need to keep the unfertilized eggs! 

Most chickens will sit on unfertilized eggs until they can tell if they are or not… By the smell of rotting egg. Yeah, ew. Farmers can hold that bitch to the flashlight and tell if there’s a baby in there! They know! The eggs are not being abused!

[kuzuryuu-course]

Also, if you separate your cocks and your hens, there wont even be that issue in the first place. Egg-laying is basically chicken menstruation, but unlike mammalian menstruation which is full of blood and dead tissue, chicken menstruation is full of tasty tasty nutrients

[cluckbuck7]

Support local farms! Most grocery stores carry eggs from small, local farms that give hens acres of open pasture and healthier housing.

[jheselbraum]

Also, that “selectively bred to lay eggs more often” thing? Literally just comes from feeding the chickens every day. The chicken’s ancestors would only lay an egg when there was abundant food, so people started feeding them every day to get more eggs. That’s it.

[jeza-red]

Not to mention, I’m sick of vegans ignoring their local farmers and instead feeling very proud of eating “healthy and cruelty free” replacements like, hey, avocado and bananas…. That do more harm to the environment than Farmer Jack from the village and his three cows will ever do. The veg and grains doesn’t appear out of thin air, they come from the same sprawling farms that take land away from the native species, they cause the same amount of co2 to get to your local “healthy” supermarket than that dozen of eggs=_=

These people. Know nothing about farming and nothing about sustainability =_____=

The Perfect Explanation of Privilege – In One Powerful Punchline

“The Pencilsword” is a comic strip by Toby Morris, an illustrator from New Zealand. His most recent comic, “On a Plate” hits hard at the heart of the issues of concerning wealth and privilege.

How many times have you heard the “I’ve never been handed anything on a platter” argument in regard to social security and other social benefits?

Toby wrecks this argument by showing how two children can grow up, be loved and supported, and yet still have two very different outcomes.

Make sure to follow all the way to the end for the powerful punchline. This comic is an increasingly sad reality for far too many of this nation’s children and families.

Idk anything about critical roll (role?) but what I DO know is that Mollied Mauk Tealeaf guy has the sexiest design of any character I’ve seen in my LIFE, bro

[cranberrybogfrog]

This post has blown up infinitely more than any other text post I’ve made, so let me just come back to say this in addition:

That dude who looks like a can of Arizona Green Tea is beautiful as FUCK and he makes me feel safe. How did his face get that soft. I’m mad

(Also thanks to all the CR fans in my notes saying I’m valid and appreciating me, I’m too shy to reply most times but I have a billion heart emojis for each of u. Y’all are great)

[cranberrybogfrog]

@twirltheflag mentioned that they’d like to see me do a reactions post to all the CR characters! So I googled them, and I did not look at their names. I hope I got them all! LEGGO

1.

BLUE!!!

Is she a water bender. She looks like she could kick my ass. She’s for SURE gay look @ that undercut. I respect her

2.

This one looks like somebody did a fanart of a captain America/Bucky Soldier guy fusion. I like the deep concern in his eyes. What is he afraid of. Is he intimidated by the raw power of all the gay people in his friend group? He has great hair. also somebody get him a wet wipe he’s gonna clog his Pores up with all that dirt

3.

Oooh yess I’m getting…… hints of Viking warrior goddess…… emo but like also soft….. she doesn’t do makeup her eyes r just smoky from the ashes of all her enemies…. lets her gf braid her hair…..

4.

He looks like a lush bath bomb themed after a swamp creature and I LOVE it. I feel like his name is…… Brock. Very artistic scars I bet he’s a lot nicer than his expression leads to believe.

5.

All these ladies are BLUE and I dig it. She looks like my friend. I feel like she would paint my nails for me and take me sweater shopping at Rue21. Has the bisexual bob. She is everybody’s favorite bouncy girl and she is dating 1 or both of the blue ladies above.

6.

ARIZONA TEAAAAAAAAAA BABEY

He is soft and green and pink and I love him. I like his earring and armor design. Great style. He would listen to my problems with a very gentle expression and then give me the exact advice I needed to hear and offer me a cup of tea. Everyone needs to smooch him before battle for good luck.

7.

YEAA GREMLIN TIME

Is she a mummy? Is she a goblin? Who knows but she is Comin For U. She has the energy and chaotic nature of a chihuahua. Gets sunburned easily hence the bandages. Or could be for aesthetic. She’s funky and dramatic and rides around on Arizona Tea’s shoulders.

8.

I KNOW THIS ONE

He is…….. extravagante…….

Always has a snarky comment to add to anything anyone’s saying.

Just call him Big Sexy

Every place they visit he goes to the flea market to pick up one more wildly patterned piece of clothing.

If It Shiny He Has It

He doesn’t give 2 fucks about what he’s supposed to do he’s just here to have fun

But like. He cares about his friends and wants to keep them safe

Idk who put those scars on him but they can catch these hands

Flirts with everyone alive

Calls people ‘darling’

[bitchassgone-deactivated2021011]

do people on tumblr like. realize that friendships arent therapy

[bitchassgone-deactivated2021011]

this is how yall end up going around calling every ex-friend your abuser. its nice for your friends to be able to drop everything for you when youre having a bad time, but its literally NOT mandatory. your friends should not have to ignore their own problems to fix yours. get some therapy.

[bitchassgone-deactivated2021011]

as a friend, you are allowed to say “i would really love to help you right now, but i cant push back my own issues to help you. im going through my own problems right now, and thats what i need to focus on”. it is NOT selfish. you arent going to be of any help to the people you care about if youre in bad shape and not taking care of yourself. its only going to make you worse for wear.
