graves grow no green that you can use.

Zohran Mamdani what are you going to do about the situation on mount olympus above the empire state building
coworker asks if i like harry potter and i have to make a disco elysium skill check to come up with a response
CIS COWORKER — Hey you seem really into wizards and stuff, I bet you love Harry Potter :)
EMPATHY — He’s just trying to be polite and make conversation. He doesn’t know about JK Rowling’s opinions on trans people. Let’s politely change the subject.
COMPOSURE [Trivial: Failure] — “Kill yourself.”
I love the midwest so much
Maybe the most damming thing about Nolans odyssey is i haven’t seen a single gifset from it
sexual thrill at the mere prospect of cataloging things in a database

opened up ravelry to look at patterns and the very first thing i saw was
The Garment by Robert Cole
I had to immediately look for myself and I feel like this post needs the addition of the very first line in the pattern description
Green + yellow + orange is a highly underrated colour combo
Look at her don't you love her
i really love this video it’s a poem to me
[ID: post by New-Cleckit Dominie (not sure how this will come out on a screen reader - the joke is that the text, which is a pastiche of william carlos william's famous "plums" poem, has been poorly transcribed by OCR software so it gets increasingly garbled as it goes on):

i do think the negative interpretations of "im probably nonbinary but i have a job right now" are kind of reaching. it's obviously a waste of time to theorize the op's intended meaning, so instead i think it's better to recognize how the phrase can be a useful framing device to criticize how much of a fucking hassle it is to get gendered correctly. "but i have a job" e.g. will face discrimination that could threaten livelihood; e.g. don't have the mental bandwidth to explain gender to others; e.g. don't have the time and energy for the soul-searching necessary to confirm. all three of these are labor issues. yes you could interpret it as "but being nonbinary isn't important enough to worry about", despite that being a blatantly bad-faith read. it's more useful to interpret it as "but being publicly nonbinary requires a lot of social effort that, in many cultural contexts, will create more problems that you can't afford to deal with". like cmon it's a really good jumping off point for productive conversations about queer labor rights
The thing about anti-libby posts, because ebooks have to be paid for yearly while physical books only have to be paid for once, is that yes, physical books are cheaper for the library to acquire- but the library has a budget they chose to allocate, whether it's on software, subscriptions to digital encyclopedias, or ebook rentals. If they chose to rent ebooks, it was because they want you to read them, and using any of their services looks good for them. Check out physical books by all means, but don't feel guilty about checking out ebooks.
Think of it as an accessibility measure.
"But wait," you say. "They're books. Physical objects. In a building. You don't have to pay to get into the building, or get the books. What do you need accessibility for? They're already accessible?"
Not if you've been hospitalized.
Not if you have poor vision. (Ebooks: Adjustible font sizes for EVERYTHING. Not just the large print editions the library can get.)
Not if the roads are covered in ice, or the library itself is for whatever reason closed/hard to get to.
And the audiobooks! Do you have any idea how many people have cars that don't have CD players, or don't know if they have MP3-CD-compatible CD players, or really don't want to try wrangling an 8-CD-book while driving? THERE ARE A LOT, LEMME TELL YOU. But with Libby, all you need is a bluetooth connection between your phone and your car!
And you can even listen to a whole audiobook on your phone while unable to see because eye surgery! (don't even try to ask if that's common. It's way common. I've had multiple calls re: walking people through setting this up for this reason just this year. Actually, even just this summer. Bad year for eyeballs, good year for Libby.)
Extra bonus points: You don't have to worry about returning materials on time, because Libby handles that for you. Which is great if you're traveling. It's also great because you can even check out more stuff while you're physically in completely different states from your library!
Oh and one other thing. Do you have any idea how much shelf space, say, "every single James Patterson book" or "every single Danielle Steel book" would actually take up? How many entire physical book cases those authors would take up, if a library chose to have every. single. book. they've ever written? Yeah. It's not happening. (Okay. The Library of Congress probably has it. Good luck finding any other library doing it.) But we can get them all in ebook format. Yep. Every last one. And the audiobook version. These two and every other insanely prolific writer out there. Virtual space is infinitely expandable. Aren't you glad?
Your library pays some hefty fees to make these ebooks available to you. These are just some of the reasons. So please. Use the feature. We want you to use the feature.
for years, the game Project Zomboid has pissed me off because approximately half of the female zombies i kill and loot have a "strapless bra" in their inventories. i believe this is casually misogynistic (in a negligent way, not a malevolent one) because most normal women in real life wear strapless bras maybe 4 times in their entire lives, generally to rare events like weddings or prom, and at almost no other time. ie, i will never just be hanging out in my house in a tshirt and jeans with a strapless bra on. never. so i am making this poll to email to the devs when i submit my second complaint about the strapless bra loot table drop rate. you can assist me by voting and reblogging. i added a bunch of options just for fun but the bra/no bra/strapless bra are the big three.
if YOU were turned into a zombie right now, and I caved your head in with a shovel, what kind of bra would i find on your corpse?
WOMEN: what kind of bra or chest undergarment are you wearing RIGHT NOW?
no bra, nothing under my shirt, or entirely topless
"NORMAL" bra: cups, shoulder straps, rib band, underwire or no underwire
STRAPLESS bra
sports bra
binder
bralette or similar item
binding tape, ace bandage or wrap
nipple tape or pasties
compression shirt or bodysuit
tank top/undershirt/bodysuit/leotard of some kind but no "bra" per se
i am not a woman but it's important that i get to participate
i dont have a torso, i am the Fresno Nightcrawler but i want my vote to be count
i am only half serious about this, but i am going to email the devs anyway. politely. because it does bother me. vote Fresno Nightcrawler for “none of the above”
At this rate, I might just become a full time grackle photographer. The purple and blue interference color on their feathers is so magical.
