reminders for today:
if you or someone you know might need it in the next few years, purchase plan b. the shelf life of plan b is 4 years, and we might not be able to access it as easily as we can now in the days ahead.
if you are larger/plus size: go online and purchase ella instead of plan b. plan b is less effective if you aren’t under 160 pounds.
if you can, purchase books that project 2025 is looking to ban.
mass deportations are starting. if you see ice vehicles or agents, yell ice raid and la migra as loud as you can.
if someone asks who you voted for, keep your mouth shut. they’re fishing for traitors.
if anyone, anyone at all asks about your neighbors or their legal status in the us, you know nothing. don’t be the reason that their family is separated.
if anyone asks about your religion or lack thereof, keep it vague. this administration will look for any excuse to persecute you.
your friends are trans or queer? for the next four years they’re not. don’t expose anyone’s status as a trans or queer person to anyone else, even if you think you can trust them.
did someone you know get an abortion? no, they didn’t. they were never pregnant.
in short, don’t be a snitch, and keep to yourself these next four years. we’ll make it through this even if it seems hopeless at times.
we can survive this. we’ve survived before, and we’ll survive again.
HEY, FELLOW HATERS OF INSANELY-BRIGHT CAR HEADLIGHTS, SOMEONE HAS STARTED A PETITION TO REGULATE THEM.
It's an official petition through the Australian Government's e-petition page, which means if it gets enough signatures, it will be tabled in government.
You do have to be an Australian citizen to sign it, BUT!!! PLEASE REBLOG THIS EVEN IF YOURE NOT, because these kind of things have a roll-on effect, and if Australia legislates LED headlights, then other countries may follow.
FYI, the petition asks only for your name and email, and once you've clicked the sign button, they'll send you an email to confirm your signature --- you need to click the confirmation link in the email to have your signature counted.

Okay so yall know that old tumblr post someone made about a fairytale esque love story where everyone wants to marry a beautiful woman, so she tells them that if they can get the key to her house off of her cat’s neck, she’ll marry them? And no one can catch the cat, until one guy learns that you can just become the cat’s friend, and it will let you take the key freely, and then it turns out the woman is a shapeshifter and she was the cat the whole time? I remember reading it on Pinterest forever ago.
Yeah. Yeah but. But what if. What if Greenflower
Reading all of the how to train your dragon books at once (as opposed to reading them as they came out) is so surreal, because you notice the change in mood over the twelve books more. Because if you read them individually as they come out, it's like, sort of growing with you, if you get what I mean.
But reading them all at once is like a slam in the face when it goes from "I'm Hiccup, and I'm a viking kid who can talk to dragons! I got exiled from my tribe but it's okay because I saved the day and now people like me :)" to "I was branded :). I started a war :). My family's in slavery :). I went to the slave camp and my dad didn't recognize me :). Everyone's trying to kill me including my own mom :). Just found out my ancestor was stabbed to death by his own father :)."

The mitochondria being the powerhouse of the cell is a fact which is often discussed on the internet. The Golgi apparatus, however, being the post office of the cell, has not gotten nearly as much recognition. This is in line with the years-long underfunding of the postal service, which provides a deeply important service to society yet does not get the recognition it deserves. In this essay I will
