Those saying Aang would be for Palestine are stupid. Aang is a pacifist who wouldn't even kill Ozai (the evil Fire Lord who was actively burning the Earth Kingdom), why on Earth would he support the Genocide of the Jews?

sometimes i get caught in little brain loops about the mechanics of how vampires eat. i get lost in the sauce about how much blood they'd need, what the exact mechanism for that might be

then i have to be like 'no u gotta be more loosey goosey about this' bc in reality, blood is so nutritionally incomplete that vampire bats, the only mammal obligate blood-eaters, consume so much blood just to get enough nutrients to live that they sometimes can't take flight after a meal, and have to piss pretty much constantly in order to get rid of excess water weight to be able to fly

which isn't very sexy

Riko was Gojo & Geto’s first child together kinda

How I (someone with social anxiety) manage to survive large family gatherings with my fiancé’s (very nice) extended family is to pretend I am Business Man from Hallmark Movie that doesn’t have a backstory and only knows business but in a cute awkward way.

The only downside so far is that I think his family knows that I am incredibly on edge the entire time I don’t know most of their names and I have almost no connect to them but hey at least I’m getting sentences out and I’m not just hiding in the bedroom avoiding all human interaction

Bit of an extension of an older post of mine:

If you think about it, the Master of Chaldea only really speaks to Servants for years. I wonder what that would do to you...

Examples:

Leonardo Da Vinci: Servant

Mash: Demi-Servant

Dr. Roman: Human, former Servant

Singularities: Most interaction is with Servants, with a few interactions with normal people

Makes you wonder if that lack of close interaction with 100% normal humans ends up becoming apparent during the Lostbelts, where they finally have the chance to interact in depth with actual humans.

Unironically I think Neverafter as a whole, like, what’s going on, is about fanfiction.

Tobirama (and Konoha) wanting to oppress the Uchiha, so they made them cops, got to be one of the most ridiculous plot lines in Naruto.

Gender 🤝 the price of carrots based on weight

VERY IMPORTANT a dam in the Netherlands, the weerdsluis lock, is directly on a migratory path for spawning fish. They have a worker stationed there to open the door for the fish, but they can take a while to open it. So to keep the fish from getting preyed on by birds they installed a doorbell. Only, the fish don't have hands to ring the doorbell. If you go to their website, they have a LIVE CAMERA AND A DOORBELL that YOU RING FOR THE FISH when they're waiting, and then the dam worker opens the door for them! I can't express how obsessed I am with this. look at this shit. oh my god.

Please check on the fish doorbell once in a while :)

i do unironically think the best artists of our generation are posting to get 20 notes and 3 reblogs btw. that fanfic with like 45 kudos is some of the best stuff ever written. those OCs you carry around have some of the richest backstories and worldbuilding someone has ever seen. please do not think that reaching only a few people when you post means your art isn't worth celebrating.

I know this is a tiny part of the wider problems born of diet culture, fatphobia, classism, and racism but like god the idea that "healthy" food must inherently taste bad has completely ruined us as a society.

not romantic not platonic but a secret third thing [what would happen between earth and the moon if the earth stopped spinning as illustrated by xkcd randall munroe]

Sometimes I wish we would start calling out the performative radicalism on this site for the poser bullshit it is. "Remember, it's always morally correct to kill a cop!" "Don't forget to firebomb your local government office!" "Wow, it sure would be a shame if these instructions on how to make a molotov cocktail got spread around!"

Okay. But you're not killing cops or firebombing government offices. You are posting on a dying microblogging website to a carefully-curated echo chamber that has radicalized itself into thinking that taking the absolute most extreme position on any subject is praxis but that anyone discussing the most practical way to effect actual change is your sworn enemy. You do not have the street cred OR the activist cred to be talking about killing cops, babe.

can't believe we're all adults being forced into the club penguin level of censorship in 2024

The math just adds up!
