turning point usa is kinda performance art like lets consider that the other founder died from covid in 2020.
>two people start a conservative organization to push covid conspiracies and pro-gun ideals (among other things)
>one dies of covid
>the other dies of gun violence
it’s so on the nose that it’s actually cliché
not to sound like the joker but im not fucking around when i say weird al covering killing in the name completely seriously and not changing any of the lyrics at all is a very scary statement about society rn......... a man who built his entire career on whimsy and being sort of family-friendly doing a sincere rendition of killing in the name by rage against the machine. we've awoken Serious Alfred. we're so fucked.

today I had a dream that there was a species of deer called “ice deer” and every winter they’d travel up North and have their babies in a frozen cavern and the babies would be sort of comatose in the cold, and then the deer would leave the babies there and migrate South until spring, and just before the first thaw, they’d go back up North and find their babies and wait for them to thaw out and wake up and they’d nurse them.
But with the Earth getting warmer and spring coming sooner and winters being less harsh up North, the babies were starting to thaw out too early, so when the Ice Deer got to them, they’d been awake already and starved to death.
So there were only like, 300 Ice Deer left. They were bigger than elks, all white with blue antlers that even the females grew, and I realized the only solution would be to somehow lead them North every year when it started thawing. As a human I could check the weather and the ice in the North Pole and when it was time to go to the babies, even if the deer thought it was still winter.
So I had to devise a plan to get the Ice Deer to follow me North to their babies on time every spring, and it just became part of my life. I did other stuff and lived life as usual while keeping track of the weather near the end of winter and I’d be like, welp it’s time to lead the deer North, and I’d set out to find their winter home.
And a lot of people were like “this isn’t a permanent solution. We need to focus on climate change so it’s fixed for good.”
and I was like dang I know but the Ice Deer need us right now so, someone’s gotta do it? And it just became a thing I did.
ppl messaging me like “I thought this was real for a minute”:
: O !!!!!!!!
Everyone asking is absolutely allowed to use the Ice Deer in their fantasy world building and in fact I encourage it bc I love the idea of this one made up animal quietly linking all of your universes.
I have another dog to put on this theoretical show. The original story can be found at this link. If the link breaks, it's a story on NotAlwaysRight called "Absolutely The Goodest Boy"
I love it when service dogs do some freelance consulting, it's so cool
"Teenage atheists wish they could reach the same level of Blasphemy as christian gringos"
a texan professor just lost their job because a student was filmed saying "you cant be teaching this, the president said theres only 2 genders, and it also goes against my religious beliefs", to which the professor responded with "you are free to leave the classroom if you are uncomfortable with what is being taught", which was apparently out of line
can you fucking imagine
being a college professor
and getting fired after not humoring some fucking stupid kid
for saying
"excuse me what youre teaching is wrong, the president said so"
"In the same way that your heart feels and your mind thinks, you, mortal beings, are the instrument by which the universe cares. If you choose to care, then the universe cares. If you don't, then it doesn't." -- Brennan Lee Mulligan, D20, Fantasy High
normalise saying ''what the fuck is wrong with you'' to mean people
stop making this post cute. it's blunt and violent. it's about humiliating needlessly cruel people not about bickering with loved ones.
Okay so Victorian erotica is literally the most heinous, morally bankrupt, horrific shit I've ever read - but I've read a fair bit, partly from historical interest but also because a while back I helped a friend with a university project she was doing about censorship and pornography in 19th century England.
Anyway I need to share with you all the most hilarious line that has ever been written, circa 1887:
I feel like this excerpt is significantly enhanced by knowing that the novel in question is a first-person narrative written from the perspective of an inexplicably sapient flea who lives on Bella's body, and that's why the third priest's penis is described in this way: from the narrator's perspective it literally blots out the sky.

NOOOO THE SIX ORGASMS PERIOD HACK GOT REBLOGS DISABLED JUST AS I TRIED TO REBLOG IT whatever. I'm trying that next period.
Rescued media. Fuck it.
YOOOOOO I JUST GOT MY FIRST LIBRARY CARD SINCE LIKE 2007 IT WAS SO EASY???
Like they literally just needed any photo ID with an address, I thought they needed like unopened mail and paperwork and crap, it took 5 goddamn minutes, I did it on my way home from work
And was NOBODY gonna tell me libraries have websites now with ebooks and audiobooks and documentaries and British TV and shit???
Why the FUCK have I been paying Netflix
GO GET A LIBRARY CARD
One of the first things I did when I moved away from home and into my college town was locate the city library and see what I needed to do to get a card. Then I went to the library every week. It helped me feel connected to the community and feel a sense of place, which helped me get over my homesickness.
Seriously, check out your local library. They have SO MUCH STUFF besides books (especially these days).
don't forget to install library extension in your browser of choice! when you look at books on amazon etc it will tell you whether they're available at your library in physical or digital form. i set my default to libby instead of overdrive and enabled showing when books were available on hoopla since my library has it.

ok so turns out this already exists and it was written in the fifth century AD

pov you are my captive audience

Most of those iPad babies you're seeing are probably sick of that fucking tablet too.
A lot of parents are very bad at parenting and don't like their children. They don't want to talk to them, be around them or do anything with them. You know, the things kids need and will remember the most once they're grown.
So they train them from an early age that they should always be distracting themselves with something as to not be in the way or annoying the adults.
For me it was books and TV when I was little, and computers later on. That's all I did because it was all I could do without getting yelled at, and it was the closest to human interaction I could get most of the time.
Everyone loves to make fun of & complain about iPad kids but nobody thinks about the struggle of navigating life as an adult when you were forced to spend your entire childhood keeping yourself distracted so your parents didn't have to acknowledge your existence.
Ok my brothers math teacher has pissed me off so bad that I’m writing an email. Do you know how seethingly mad I have to be to write an email.

Rather than distinctly male or female, the human brain is much more like the heart, kidneys and lungs – basically the same no matter the sex of the body it's in.
rb to make a biological essentialist mad <3
“This collapse is a telltale sign of a problem known as publication bias. Small, early studies which found a significant sex difference were likelier to get published than research finding no male-female brain difference.”
