Shout-out to @ms-demeanor for putting these on my dash again, I’d like to add this exceptional interview question “answer guide” that explains traps and “the best” way to answer over 64 common questions. I don’t know who to attribute it to, but here it is: PDF from tri valley one-stop career center.

[the-real-numbers-deactivated202]

Hey some of these answer templates helped J get an offer letter from her dream job; strongly recommend you read them if you’re job hunting

do not forget the patron saint of these weeks that we celebrate ourselves proudly and openly in the streets

her name was Marsha P Johnson, and we have her to thank for so much.

remember, the first Pride was a riot, and she was one of the brave souls who endured it to help carve the path which so many of us walk today. she helped found several activist groups regarding LGBT safety and wellbeing. and she was absolutely radiant, too.

thank you, Marsha. we remember you.

tired: mermaids are all women

wired: much like elves, merfolk are mistaken by sailors for being all women because they have long hair and are very pretty

[valtsv]

inspired: merfolk actually have very different concepts of gender to humans because they’re an entirely different species with their own unique culture

[valtsv]

marine scientist: what’s your gender?

merperson: what’s a gender

marine scientist: like, are you a man or a woman?

merperson: i’m merfolk

marine scientist: no, like, what’s in your pants?

merperson: i don’t… wear any? i don’t have legs?

It’s a biological fact that fish do indeed change their sex to keep the male/female ratio balanced in their school population. So this fluidity actually makes more sense from a scientific standpoint than the silly idea that merfolk are born with a strictly assigned sex like humans.

[witchcraft-in-wonderland]

Merfolk are all canonically genderfluid and we love them for that

[anonymous-lizard]

Human: (invites merfolk friend to a boat party with their friends)

Merfolk: oh man, there are a lot of women here. Haha don’t worry guys, I got this :) *changes into a man to keep a balance because that’s culturally polite for merfolk*

Human: (spits drink) what the FUCK

[sexy-necromancing-bird]

OH MY GOD

[kingfisher-colours]

So in the presence of a ship with an entirely or mostly male crew, nearby mermaids would become female to keep the balance.

[ace-aussie-asshole]

That’s it. We figured out why everyone thinks merfolk are all women. Get a boat of fems out there and let’s see what they report.

i fucking love ryan gosling for saying this. he gets that if a movie hits like crack and gives us something ‘more’, the certain something beyond market value, we will naturally go full barbenheimer on our local theaters.

[donesparce]

Shoutout to Project Hail Mary for being the only media where the unconscious protagonist is dragged off screen by an alien spider monster and the audience's reaction is heartbreak on behalf of the alien spider monster.

[owenhcrper]

i just love all the stories about production on project hail mary. they didn't use a single green/blue screen in the whole film. they built the whole interior of the hail mary. the petrova line scene was done practically by putting infrared lights on a chicken wire cage. rocky's voice was one of the puppeteers because he did such a good job during filming that they couldn't imagine anyone else voicing him. and rocky was a practical puppet/animatronic! sandra huller picked sign of the times as her karaoke song and she asked her daughter if it was still a cool song. i just feel like there was so much love making this film and im obsessed

i am making everything about being transgender because everything IS about being transgender

[pigswithwings]

when you go out to eat while transgender, you have to consider which bathroom you will be allowed to use and whether that waitress will misgender you. when you sit on the train, you have to wonder if that person staring at you has clocked you or just wants to look at your bag keychain. when you look for clothes you have to go through employees trying to tell you, actually, these clothes are for women/men. you have to avoid stares from mothers who want you to die before stepping within eyesight of their children. you struggle looking in the mirror, you watch how and when you speak, every instance of your life is transgender when you're transgender and often it can be really bad. so i really want to try and emphasize how wonderful it is to be trans and that transness leads to a life worth living. because truly we need to remember this sometimes

[pigswithwings]

i dont want people to just reblog this post only thinking about the bad things. you have to remember that these are not all side effects of being trans, they are side effects of living in a society that does not properly appreciate trans people. being trans is truly very beautiful, there is nothing that can match it. there is no feeling to replicate how it feels to hear someone say your name for the first time. there is nothing that can surpass how wonderful it is to try on clothing you've always wanted, or to see your friends beam and glow when they try on clothing they want. the most beautiful thing is making eye contact with someone in public and not saying anything, but knowing they're like you. being trans is perhaps the best thing ever and everything revolves around it

the concept of a team of eridians keeping grace’s dome exactly how he likes it. not just habitable but perfectly tailored to him down to the temp of the sea and the levels of fog and the door on his home. and they’re so excited to be taught by him despite how strange he must look to them. the outsider finding a home where he should fit in the least. i’m gonna cry again
