WHAT DO YOU MEAN IT'S GONCHAROV I THOUGHT IT WAS GORNACHOV THIS WHOLE TIME

Pokemon TCG Live is a pretty decent upgrade from TCGO, but the avatars are straight up bitmoji and I hate it

Much prefer the older designs

I need to get more cringe

I didnt grow up with western music at all so its all so thrilling and new and exciting to me I feel insane when i talk about my favorite songs and bands and people are like “you have the same music taste as my 45 yr old white dad” YES I DO I LOVE PEACE FROG

Hey shot in the dark here

Does anyone have any good sources for helping a potentially autistic toddler with his speech? I tried looking it up myself, but I’m concerned by how many of the resources are from “Autism Mommies” and I don’t want to instill anything harmful into my kid.

(For reference, we suspect he’s autistic because I am likely autistic-though I’ve never sought diagnosis, and he’s had a big speech regression, among other things.)

I just want to meet his needs as best as I can. He’s my first kid, and I’m noticing that most resources for raising children either assume that they’re neurotypical(my husband has diagnosed ADD, my child will most likely not be neurotypical even if we are not autistic), or they’re more about making your kid palatable to Neurotypicals than they are about actually helping the child.

I’m not extremely concerned, I’d just like to try out different educational techniques to find out what works best for my kid; and I figured maybe someone here would have safe resources.

i want to make a url using “alatus” bUT I CANT BE CREATIVE RN IM SOBBING

holidays are a gift, so was this evening

never let anyone tell you that trawling through mediocre victorian poetry isn't worth it. we just happened upon an absolute BANGER of a worm poem. go read it or else 🪱🪱🪱

in spirit i am a 7th grade boy

yknow i never noticed the sheer rareness of images having ids or alt text on this website until i started adding alt text to my art (and trying to remember to add it to any images i post in general, especially text screenshots) and that makes me kinda sad

i feel like a lot of the 'i hate kids' crowd would be more tolerant if they understood that due to a kid's limited experience of the world that 4 hour flight might just be the longest they've ever had to sit still for or that trapped finger might literally be the most pain they've ever felt in their short life or they might not have ever seen a person with pink hair ever so of course they want to touch it or nobody's told them yet that they can't run around the museum and they only just learned cheetahs are the fastest animals so of course they want to put that to the test. how were they supposed to know etc etc.

When I was a kid one of my moms would call her period "moon time" or "her monthlies" or shit like that and my other mom straight up stealthed it, but when I'm a dad I think I'm gonna go straight down the middle and call it Werewolf Week. Like sorry kids, dad can't roughouse right now, it's Werewolf Week

rip to all the “fuckyeah___” blogs that carried our society at one point </3

When you’ve been cooking for long enough, you stop making recipes and start making “shit in a skillet” and “whatever soup”

Twitter still producing bangers on occasion

If Pikachu were real, it would not be a very pleasant animal. An enormous mouse that shocks you like an electric eel. I would run from these beasts
