Why is it okay for dog people to talk about how much they hate cats but I even vaguely hint at the fact that I don't really care for dogs and I'm some kind of monster?

Seriously dogs are loud and smelly and they don't bury their shit. The pee on your grass and they're just awful pets in my opinion. But say that to a person on the street and they act like I told them my hobbies include killing puppies.

Meanwhile they feel it's perfectly okay to tell me cats are evil and they hate them, no reasons cited at all.

Okay, you're not a cat person that's fine. But dogs aren't inherently better and I'm allowed to think they make shitty pets.

This is a rant and an expression of MY feelings. Great you have the best dog ever, I'm happy for you. Yes I know dogs are cute I don't work at an animal shelter an not get that. I even routinely spend hours petting, feeding and walking shelter dogs. They're sweet, they still suck and they still smell. Yes yes cat smell too except they dont their litter boxes do and thars fixable. Ive heard the arguments, the reasoning, the excuses. The fact is im allowed to say i dont like dogs!

Year 29 of trying to explain that the mistakes I made are actually due to a disability (adhd) and being ignored.

People are so fucking supportive when it's lol lost my keys inside emy house, lol I'm so disorganized. But when that's not your issue, when people are forced to deal with the emotional disregulation and impulse control that can lead you to being unintentionally hurtful they don't wanna see it.

Guess I'll just have to keep working on the aspects of my disability that have been present since day one, that I've been working on for 29 of my 39 years of life, and hope that this is the year I stop being disabled i guess.

Kaniela Ing said Lahaina’s pre-colonial history is particularly important for people to know—not just for the sake of Lahaina’s Native residents, but because it reveals the deeply unnatural roots of this so-called “natural” disaster. After all, he noted, Lahaina used to be a wetland. It was only because of colonization and climate change that it became a tinderbox. “Lahaina wasn’t always a dry, fire-prone region. It was very wet and lush, historically. Boats would circle the famous Waiola Church. Lahaina was also the breeding place of aquaculture. It had some of the world's first and most innovative systems of fish ponds. ”But at the dawn of the 18th century, sugar barons arrived and illicitly diverted the water to irrigate the lands they had stolen. (Note: 18th century European sugar and pineapple barons also brought invasive grasses, Wired reports, which now cover 26 percent of Hawaii and become “explosive” fuel for wildfires.) “Today, descendants from those same barons amass fast profits from controlling our irrigation, our land use, and political influence. Alexander and Baldwin are two big missionary families of the original oligarchs, and they’re currently the largest landowners on Maui. That’s the name of their corporation and they’re one of the top political donors here today. “So on one hand, the climate emergency caused this. On the other, it’s also that history of colonial greed that made Lahaina the dry place that it is."

if there's anything worth paying for and anything worth the time to research it's a guide to fungus, lest you die.

PSA: *Beware* AI-generated fungi guudebooks!!

…Not a phrase I imagined myself typing today. But, via @heyMAKWA on Twitter:

“i'm not going to link any of them here, for a variety of reasons, but please be aware of what is probably the deadliest AI scam i've ever heard of:

“plant and fungi foraging guide books. the authors are invented, their credentials are invented, and their species IDs will kill you”

…So please be careful if you run across anything of this kind.

i sit down to write a simple little oneshot

i look up from computer once I am done, eyes red and vision blurry. the time is 2 AM. the word-count is 16k. we are 6 chapters deep, and now there will be a spin-off sequel. i have lost control of the narrative. i have lost control of my life.

I just saw a story on AO3 tagged "pet p!ay"

TIK TOK MUST BE STOPPED BEFORE IT DESTROYS LANGUAGE

"are you a boy or a girl" baby I am whatever makes the joke land and the mutuals horny

taking a class on sex this semester which has resulted in many fun things like "sex activity" and "sex final" being added to my planner. being very mature and serious about this .

The more I get back into liking, loving and lusting on people, the more I'm reminded what a sanitized, segregated lie queers have been built into.

I've met the sweetest, prettiest queens who tell me "Well, I'm a transsexual. Sometimes I call myself a transman because both my trans self and my manhood are me."

New friends tell me about the sexcapades their closed polycule gets up to that they just watch because they're a kinky ace.

There's staunch lesbians who helped the love of their life transition as a transmasc, gay men begging to be topped by trans men with the fattest tits.

Older queers don't hesitate to shout "oh, like Prince!" when I tell them I'm androgyne. Vanilla questioning men will text me day after day before shyly confessing I'm their dream guy. Closeted trans women ask to kiss me because I'm their dream girl. Doms and subs who melt when they realize I'm both and neither, and they didn't know somebody like me existed.

There's vanilla lesbians on Grindr and acearos who have shown me love deeper than I thought possible and guydykes kissing girlfags and MtFtMtX elders and throuples that have so much affection that they just collectively parent babygays who got disowned.

Everybody is so beautiful! There is so much love! It is no wonder a cruel world has a vested interest in suppressing queerness when humanity is so expansive to us.

Maybe we shouldn't be attributing someone's worth to their ability to love?

Just because you didn't intend to say it doesn't mean the implications aren't there.

looking at tumblr reactions being like "omg i thought it's just a joke and we're not watching oppenheimer" to ppl actually watching both of barbenheimer movies - some of you would really benefit from watching something out of your comfort zone, so you don't end up looking like some bright colours, loud sounds addicted ipad toddler on one end of horse shoe theory with insufferable film bros on the other

Everyone be like "Can you ____" as if we didn't already establish "you can do anything you want forever actually" lmao

yeah lol whenever I get an ask that starts with "can I ___ if I [massive explanation to justify themselves]" I'm immediately like. my beloved there are no rules <3 fly free beautiful bird

but I don't mind because some people need the affirmation!

Goodbye, I must cross the Atlantic

Here you go: the worst way I've EVER seen someone try to explain sexuality
