One of the most heartwarming things I’ve ever heard a dog trainer say “A pushy pet who makes small demands and communicates their needs to you is a safe pet. It means they trust you and aren’t afraid of your reaction if they misbehave and push your buttons a little”
Hey, question: To what extent is street food an universal city phenomenon?
Like when people start building permanent, densely populated habitations big enough to be considered cities, do they just all independently develop some form of "ready-to-eat convenience food you can just buy off a stall/vendor/etc off the street and eat wherever you find convenient"? The ancient romans had those, to the point where the cheapest rental apartments didn't even have their own kitchens because you'd just buy your meals from the street.
And I know street food vendors of some sort were also a thing in ancient China and I think also Korea and Japan (I don't know the details so I'm not going to guess into more specifics), and it feels far more plausible to me that both places came up with the concept independently than having had the novel idea of "sell hot meal on street/buy hot meal off street" drag its entire ass across their entire known world from one point to the other by the silk road.
Is there records of some similar phenomenon from other great historical societies? The ones from other continents besides Europe and Asia? Because while it had never occurred to me before, their absence in city life would be weird as hell now that I think about it.
this is an example of a symbiotic relationship

for the first year of my master's the sign to the experimental linguistics lab was pointing in the wrong direction, which confused many people
our solutions really underlined the experimental in the lab name
i DO believe that a good writer can make mischaracterization work. oh there's a character who doesn't normally cry? figure it out!! dissect the character. make the situation cryable for them. make that character cry ugly tears even if it goes against their very nature. YOU CAN MAKE IT WORK!!!
I think it was @derinthescarletpescatarian who I saw say something to the effect of;
Instead of saying "They wouldn't do that", instead ask "What would it take for them to do that?", and then put those circumstances into place.
Very useful advice but I'm pretty sure I didn't give it
As @derinthescarletpescatarian once said, "To thine own self be true."
Don't make this the next Tumblr meme I am begging you
I thought sheriffs in America were all elected officials because they’ve been elected officials in all the places I’ve lived and they’re always nominated by the townspeople in westerns BUT apparently it varies wildly by jurisdiction. The New York City mayor can appoint a sheriff and in some places the coroner or the city council appoints the sheriff…
My great uncle has a fairly large port wine birthmark on his face. As a very young child, far too young to understand the offensive connotations of the question, I asked him what happened to his face. He told me he used to work with dangerous chemicals and got splashed in the face and burned when he was a young man. I was totally willing to believe there was a chemical that left you with a permanent red-purple patch if it touched your skin. No childhood pictures exist of him because he was a foster kid in the 60s and 70s so I really believed that story until adulthood. He got me good.
So apparently the Mac and cheese you can manufacture in your settlements in fallout 4 has no radiation and heals just as much as purified water for a fifth of the carry weight so anyways I’ve set up a pasta farm so I can run through the wasteland crunching down on uncooked Mac and cheese so fast that nothing can kill me
I think if zoidberg moved into bikini bottom he wouldnt look out of place at all i wouldnt even notice him there
I like how polite he is because he isnt intruding but curious somewhat
Hi everyone! This is an illustrated guide I made as part of my co-admining work at The Middle Eastern Feminist on Facebook! It will be published there shortly. The technique that is displayed here is a genuine one used in psychology - I forgot the name and couldn’t find it again so if you know about it, feel free to tell me! Some could say: “Yes but you can use that technique for instances of harassment other than Islamophobic attacks!”, and my reply is: Sure! Please do so, it also works for other “types” of harassment of a lone person in a public space!! However I’m focusing on protecting Muslims here, as they have been very specific targets lately, and as a French Middle Eastern woman, I wanted to try and do something to raise awareness on how to help when such things happen before our eyes - that way one cannot say they “didn’t know what to do”! I’d like to insist on two things: 1) Do not, in any way, interact with the attacker. You must absolutely ignore them and focus entirely on the person being attacked! 2) Please make sure to always respect the wishes of the person you’re helping: whether they want you to leave quickly afterwards, or not! If you’re in a hurry escort them to a place where someone else can take over - call one of their friends, or one of yours, of if they want to, the police. It all depends on how they feel! For my fellow French-speakers: I will translate it in French and post it on my page as soon as I can :) Please don’t hesitate to share this guide as it could push a lot of people to overcome bystander syndrome!! Lots of love and stay safe! PS: I you repost this cartoon of mine on twitter or instagram, please add me in the post so I can see it, with @itsmaeril :)
An important reminder today, and every day.
This is based off of the Non-Complementary technique in psychology - also known as ‘flipping the script’.
It is a legitimate tactic for defusing a situation that could otherwise escalate to become quite nasty.
People instinctively reciprocate anger with anger and kindness with kindness, but what happens when someone breaks this ‘complementary be
talking to people you want to get to know as if they're already your friends is a terrible terrible piece of advice that people online love giving out. but i think what people are trying to say when they suggest this is that you should talk to people you want to get to know as if they're your peers. which is a subtle but important distinction. the former is extremely overfamiliar and often because of this ends up making you seem rude, but the latter is more about conducting your conversations with someone as if it is unremarkable and low stakes for the two of you to be speaking together. which is only* rude if the person you're talking to thinks they're above having normal conversations with randos, in which case, probably not worth your time to befriend anyway.

Freedom FROM religion is mandatory.
The “cis is a slur” shit is so funny because you know the people who say that are using transphobic slurs in every other sentence and assuming that cis is derogatory because all of the terms they use for trans people are so the terms transgender people use to refer to their identity must be demeaning too. It’s not but if they do invent a slur against cisgender people, I will be using it. Fuck off, default settings.
