It's crazy to see people's misogyny run so deep that it's literally affecting their relationship with their own pets.

"Girl cats just aren't as affectionate :("

"Girl dogs never like me that's why I always get boy dogs :("

And like I don't like to anthropomorphize the emotions of animals, so I'm not going to say I know exactly how animals feel about it. But I will say if you genuinely never have good interactions with animals that happen to be girls then I have to assume you're the one treating every girl animal really weird and you're an asshole. And if you are having good interactions with girl animals and are still saying shit like this then like. You're cherry picking instances to be misogynistic about animals online for no reason and you're an asshole.

this is so rampant among horse people it's wild. i rode a mare all my life and she was the gentlest, kindest soul i've ever met in any animal. yet the way every other rider i worked with, including women, would make assumptions and disparage her like 'oh you couldn't pay me to ride a mare' because they're supposedly difficult, unpredictable, and mean. it's crazy to listen to people talk about a horse the same way men talk about their 'crazy exes' in 90s sitcoms and that is not an exaggeration.

youtube with ublock origin experience of the 20 second gap between every video on a playlist where youtube desperately throws itself against the impervious ever-evolving uncaring face of the adblocker's wall screaming and clawing and calling PLEASE! PLEASE, OUR AD REVENUE!! DON'T YOU WANT TO SUPPORT THIS CREATOR? DO YOU NOT CARE ABOUT OUR WALLETS? AND THEIRS? into the vast and empty sky before the adblocker gently raises one of its many iron-banded arms and flicks youtube away into the void just to hear its wails fade slowly into nothing

It's funny when I get the "You seem to be experiencing interruptions. Find out why" popup as if two unskippable 30-second ads wouldn't feel way more intrusive and annoying than a slight delay for a video to start.

can everyone do me a favor and tell me your favorite thing to put on toast in the tags

[boltlightning]

i love this post so much. all the replies are like

"i'm so basic.....i just like a lot of butter or jam :(" (as though those are not god's best and most beloved condiments and his greatest gifts to mankind)

"FUCK health guidelines FUCK my cholesterol and most importantly FUCK diet culture i'll put a dumpster full of butter on my toast and not even GOD will stop me" (no notes. god would encourage this)

doxxing one's self by mention of polarizing regional delicacies (i am so curious about vegemite i must admit)

"does a grilled cheese count as toast?" (not for the purposes of this post)

"i don't like toast please don't kill me" (i appreciate the honesty but i fear this post is not for you)

people who put full ass meals on toast (based)

people who do not but eat toast as a full meal (based)

melty peanut butter (absolutely based)

"it's a guilty pleasure but...nutella 😳" (relieve yourself of fear and enjoy your dessert toast)

special shoutout to the pots-havers adding extra salt. also the one person who mentioned kaya. i see you and am in agreement

"okay ❤️ yay ❤️" remains an unmatched response

You guys are all aware that they trained people for those civil rights protests, right? That the people doing sit ins had to be trained to keep their cool as white people screamed invectives and pouring drinks on them? It was a very organized operation.

[hbbisenieks]

One of the greatest lies that recent American history has perpetuated is the idea that Rosa Parks was "just a tired Black woman who wanted to sit down on the bus" and not a motivated activist who trained with other civil rights luminaries and very intentionally got on that bus specifically to get arrested about it.

Can you think of a reason why they might not want you to know that the people staging sit-ins and getting arrested for sitting on the bus were trained and organized?

Cattle who have learned to use hand-pumps to get water.

[strangebiology]

Here’s a new paper on tool use in cattle! It really doesn’t surprise me. I wonder if people who raise animals ever look at studies about them and say, “That’s a new discovery? Bessie does that all the time.”

The “boy cats love you more than girl cats” thing is such an insane thing to believe we gotta kill ppl for saying that

[beefbologna]

[lary-the-lizard]

Exactly why we need these posts! Nonbinary people don’t have any way specific look; we range in expression and appearances. We change our appearances from one gendered look to another. It’s in the fucking word we identify with: nonbinary. If a person shows up looking masc as hell or femme as hell and says they’re no binary and their pronouns are it’s/its, xe/xem, she/they etc, fucking respect it! It’s not about what you understand, that doesn’t fucking matter! Let people be what is most comfortable for them.
