people who do a PhD are running from something
reading the responses from the PhD runners lead me to the conclusion that we should ban all PhD programs and instead build kindergartens for post grad victims to play in until they stop getting chased

a couple of people in the tags of that post i made earlier are talking about masking and although obviously masking is a very real thing a lot of autistic people have to do to get through their day, i think framing any and all attempts to meet other people where they're at interpersonally as masking is pretty unhelpful and has some bad implications.
if we say that caring about other peoples preferences for how they want to be treated or spoken to or thinking of social interaction as more than just a potential opportunity to info dump count as "masking", then we're essentially presenting a version of reality where autistic people are innately self centered and any effort that is put in to not be that way is Hiding part of yourself or otherwise inauthentic. but i don't think that's true at all.
and importantly it's not like The Neurotypicals get to act exactly like they want with no consequences in social interactions either! everyone has to put the effort in to treat each other decently. there is no person on the planet who can just speak to everyone around them exactly as they're inclined to with no consideration or effort and end up with a bunch of healthy mutually fulfilling interpersonal relationships that way. everyone needs to put the work in. its just harder for some than others.
Feminist criticism of men's behavior comes from the idea that gender is a social construct, that men are not inherently evil and their behavior can change. If men couldn't change, the criticism would be pointless.
It is not necessary for every feminist statement to include a 'not all men do this' disclaimer. The criticism itself already expresses the possibility that men could choose not to behave in this way.
Unless someone states that men's behavior can't change or that there is inherent evil in being a man, accusing a feminist of 'manhating' because she criticizes men is usually nothing but an attempt to distract from the content of the criticism itself.
We should recognize such an obvious attempt at derailment for what it is and move on.
#Crucially this also is why generalizing about men isn't bioessentialism #Not when you're doing it from a feminist perspective with an understanding of what sociologically makes a man
YES YES THANK YOU! Same goes for like, generalizations about white people, straight people, cis people, etc.
When the context is anti-bigotry, then the implication of "I hate it when men / cis people / white people are like this" is very clearly "this is a symptom of a systematic hierarchy, they can change and they should". The position of the speaker as a feminist, trans rights advocate, anti-racist, etc. makes that very clear.
It is incredibly frustrating when some little imp then comes out of the woodwork to say "Well if I said that same thing about trans people / immigrants / arabs, etc. you'd call me bigotted!". Like, yeah, you sound bigotted because you're making those statements from an anti-feminist, anti-trans-rights, pro-racist position! The assumptions and worldview behind the sentence fundamentally changes the meaning of the sentence.
KICK THE CAN!
Let’s play the biggest game of kick the can on the internet.
To kick the can, reblog it. I wanna see how long this can go on for.
the oldest reblogs for this post that i can find are from january 2nd of 2013. this can has been getting kicked around tumblr for almost 13½ years now
And yet somehow this is my first time kicking it!
The term "book of the dead" doesnt really give you perspective to how big a lot of Egyptian funerary texts are.
Imhoteps book of the Dead is 64 feet long.
Okay, but a lot of books would be that long if you laid the pages out
the average printed page is 6 inches wide. so if a book is 128 pages, its 64 ft long. I dont think I own a book with fewer than 128 pages.
It's honestly not that impressive at all. Fuck Imhotep and his pathetic short book.

His raincoat was never packed, because obviously he wouldn't need it in space—I wonder sometimes if Stratt held onto it for any amount of time.
Something something getting someone out of their shell & shucking clams?
The rest of the space is going to be pretty pissed when they see this.
did you google how to take a screen shot
ive invented (note: dubious claim) something i call the bear diet which is mostly fruits and vegetables with fish as the main protein source and something like once a month you eat a few hyperprocessed foods of your liking because that is when you, the bear, raid a dumpster in the suburbs
after the hyperprocessed foods, do you take tranquilizers to simulate getting captured by animal control and returned to the wild?
i would settle for melatonin gummies but well. knock yourself out

I like in rpgs where if you don’t romance two of the characters they start romancing each other instead. You think you’re the only fish in the sea

Writing tips:
“You feel the bulge in his pants” - implies that you are feeling some guy’s penis, may be sexy depending on context
“You feel the bugle in his pants” - implies that this guy has a military horn in his pants, invites confusing questions like why does he have that and how big are his pockets
Both options convey that he's horny
How dare you be funnier than me on my own post
If it's the snack chip he might just be corny.
