to increase the world power of friendship

[pricklydyke]

ok im obsessed w this tag

[iwearmygreencoatatnight]

once in grade 6 I saw a 'pottery making club' in a ditch on the schoolyard- I assume at some point someone realized there was actually good quality clay in the ditch and when I walked up there were about a dozen 12 year olds sitting around the few girls who had brought their water bottles out to mix the clay, and a designated spot to put the finished bowls and tablets, and people going off and collecting sticks to make designs with and i really think that's the natural state of the human race

In elementary school I learned that you can make paint out of certain sedimentary rocks on the playground if you crushed them and mixed with water and at one point I had up to 25 kindergarten through third graders making cave paintings on the underside of the slides

The nature of man is such that every so often, someone recreates the neolithic era.

[voyageofbran]

Yeah, every recess

tubing down the river styx with a cold beer and a tupperware of orange slices

[alphacrone]

i definitely meant tubing as in floating on a lazy river in an inner tube but am now losing it at the image of getting pulled behind charon’s motorboat while he pulls donuts at illegal speeds

Domesticated computers will eat a disc right out of someone’s hand but wild computers are too shy you have to leave the disc on the ground and let it walk over to it and eat it itself

how dare you leave this important pc health info in the tags

gendered bathrooms are so fucking stupid.

there are two bathrooms at the starbucks i frequent. one women’s one men’s. and i just watched a lady wait outside the occupied women’s for 15 minutes before giving up and leaving rather than just using the unoccupied men’s.

before you ask if i’d be okay with a man going into the women’s were the roles reversed: yes. of course. it’s a single bathroom. it’s not like anyone is going to run into anybody while in the bathroom. it’s one door that leads to a toilet, sink, and changing table (both bathrooms have the changing table– a win for dads everywhere.)

the only thing that separates them is the dumbass sign on one that says women’s and the other dumbass sign that says men’s.

and you bet your ass that if i need to go, and one of them is occupied, i go use the other. it shouldn’t be a big deal.

would getting rid of gendered bathrooms fix all of trans problems everywhere? no probably not. but if they aren’t designated for one set of people vs another set of people then you can’t really stop a butch or trans woman from going into the “women’s” bc she looks masculine, bc there isn’t a women’s.

there’s just the goddamn bathroom.

[foone]

California actually made a law against single occupancy gendered bathrooms. If it only can hold one person? Guess what, that’s a gender neutral bathroom now.

It seems a very sensible law! Most places now just have two bathrooms, and they’re both labeled gender neutral.

Although it occasionally leads to some weirdness as it’s retrofitted into buildings built before the law: some places had a women’s bathroom with two stalls, but the men’s had a stall and a urinal. That is considered a “single occupancy” bathroom under the new law, so at least one restaurant I know with that setup has now labeled their restrooms “WOMEN” and “GENDER NEUTRAL” (the two genders)

[perthwise]

the only bathroom genders that matter are solo, co-op, or pvp

You, an ancient vampire have been fighting a family of vampire hunters for centuries who vow avenge their ancestor whom you killed. After a little research things suddenly get awkward as you realize that the ancestor in question is actually you when you were just a human.

So this comment section on a tiktok about insane things people ask at aquariums is a goldmine

if you don’t know the difference between a hare and a rabbit you’ve never gazed into the cold wild eyes of a hare and known that if it could speak it would speak backwards

[gallusrostromegalus]

Jack Rabbits are North American Hares and they’re the WORST to encounter at night becuase:

You all know how big a rabbit is.  Jack Rabbits and hares are much bigger. they’re the size of large cats or small dogs or just-walking-age children.

They also like to hang out in gangs of a hlf dozen to over 30.

and in the middle of backcountry dirt roads.

perhaps they’re dustbathing

or blood sacrifce

I don’t know because when you come up the road at night because your dog has a tiny bladder and needs to go out at midnight and you have no yard so you’re walking him on the dirt road around your neighborhod because you might aw well get some stargazing in, and you come just over the ridge to see a coven of twenty jackrabbits in the middle of the road

and

they

all

stand

up

not just onto all fours like a proper prey animal

No they get up on thier hind legs and don’t just sit but STAND like tiny rabbit-skinned toddlers, wobbing slightly as they stare directly at you eyes shining in your flashlight’s glow

…Blood Red.

And a chill goes through you on that warm july night because while they’re a puntable size and allegedly herbivores they’re standing and watching you just like people and you are vastly outnumbered.

everyone freezes

you’re considering your odds aganst roughly 200lbs of Suspiciously Humanoid Hare

and they’re considering their odds against you

the only sound in the never-ending high desert wind 

somewhere in your peripheral vision you can see the streetlights but they seem awfully far away

The nearest Jack Rabbit

Blinks

and takes a single shuffling step

forward

You area an overdevloped monkey and your prefrontal cortex is capable of some amazing feats but it runs very slowly compared to the reflexes of a rabbit and you’re frozen as you desperately scramble for the appropriate course of action, hands feeling thick and useless, mouth dry and feet imeasurably heavy there’s no way you’d outrun THESE, god there’s a rabies outbreak going around that shit’s not curable-

The Dog

L U N G E S

It’s only the briefest of movements but the animal you’d picked out for his gangly legs and floppy ears and goofy smile is suddenly a dark shape of muscle and teeth and had flung himself at the horrible goblin rabbits faster than mere physics should dictate, appearing in the circle of the flashlight for only the briefest of moments before the jolt from the leash makes you stumble and the light falters

The Jack Rabbits

Scatter

Vanishing into the faintly starlit sagebrush in as so many faint gray shapes that might be mistaken for the dustclouds they kick up

Later, you sit on the couch disquieted

and you wonder

If the sight of the Jack Rabbits standing and studying you was frightening enough to make you yearn for the safety of the yellowed streetlights

what must it be like from thier end?

what terrifying creature 

deliberately ties itself

to something so horrible

As a Dog?

@gallusrostromegalus that last bit gave me such a strong mental image I absolutely had to draw it

[gallusrostromegalus]

WELL HOLY SHIT.

CONGRATULATE, THAT’S EXACTLY WHAT I WAS GOING FOR.

is it ok if I print it out and stick it on the fridge?

[gallusrostromegalus]

Well this zoomed past 100K while I wasn’t looking but here’s a Picture of Charleston Chew, Terror of Wild Hares and Sometimes Bears:

[gallusrostromegalus]

Found this post again and thought you all might like the update that Mr. Charleston Chew is doing well and has added raccoons, bobcats, deer, elk, cattle, snakes, another bear, a whole pack of coyotes and a pronghorn antelope at roughly mach fuck to his list of animals he will chase down without fear of God nor consequences.

Here he is in his favorite bed, the one we got for the cat

His pride

[hashtagloveloses]

if you’re a new tumblr user from tiktok or IG or something and only like posts and dont reblog them yeah people will think you’re a bot and block you but you will also make this website actively worse. they want “algorithmic” users like you, served recommended posts through likes, not people who just follow each other and respond to the direct chronological feed. there is a reason this website is still better than the rest, even with all its problems, do not ruin this

[hashtagloveloses]

ok i need to make this clearer: if you do not reblog posts and only like them you are contributing to this site actively getting worse and becoming like all the apps you hate. keep likes to things you just wanna keep off your blog. reblog everything else. ESPECIALLY fanart, which always needs a reblog.

[hashtagloveloses]

and FYI: what i’m saying here is backed up by tumblr themselves. they admit this publicly.

if you want a good RECENT (as of the end of February 2022) overview of what is going on behind the scenes at tumblr, it is basically what i’ve been saying for years: the core staff is tiny, constantly not being listened to when they advocate for us, the community, and working there is a nightmare:

The inside story of how Tumblr lost its way

And how it can find itself again for a new generation.

[taikeero-lecoredier]

Reblogging to encourage people instead of only liking is really not that fucking hard if you dont want people to be discouraged cuz their stuff get zero interactions and 99% useless likes and be driven off the Platform.
