"I can be myself when I'm with you" is a top tier compliment
when i first heard the term "lolcow" i thought it would be pictures of cattle with captions like "u no can haz cheezburger"
Can't let British people have air conditioning because first they'd call it something twee like "the climate fixer" and then in 20 years they'll call it "the climb" or "the climmy"
when i first started watching Tis Time For Torture, Princess i was like "hahaha i get it instead of inflicting pain they're torturing her with delayed gratification" and then i was like "damn i need a meal in front of me when i watch this cause its starting to affect me." and now every damn time i watch it i mourn something that was never mine, my heart aching as i myself feel like the true prisoner as I watch little by little as the princess rebuilds her empathy and childlike wonder, surrounding herself with friends that care about and care for her, making happy memories. WHY DONT I GET TAKEN TO A HOTSPRING BY A GIANT LADY THAT LETS ME CALL HER MOMMY?! IT SHOULD HAVE BEEN ME!!! IT SHOULD HAVE BEEN ME!!!!! WHY COULDN'T THAT BE ME????!!!
I'm a bit of a Grinch. Holiday gift exchanges can be stressy for me for several reasons—the guessing game of figuring out who's planning to gift-exchange with me so it doesn't turn out awkwardly one-sided; being a minimalist who's overwhelmed by receiving too many new possessions; the possibility of inflicting the same overwhelmedness on other people; and the fact that I and many of my friends are tight on money.
This year I've started an opt-in gifting policy: I've admitted all those things to my friends, and told them that if gift-exchanging with me is important to them, they should actively let me know and provide me with a wishlist.
I'm pleasantly surprised how well people have taken it, and how many people have taken my blessing to not gift-exchange with me! I've got my gifting this year down to a few relatives and one close friend and I didn't have to do any guessing about what to buy and for whom!
until recently I had only heard his name in one of my kid's phonk remixes so I assumed he was a fictional character made up for a song
let the contemporary record show mr beast was pretty ignorable for his whole career if you were just like, busy.
TOMORROW IS HALLOWEEN!!!
I find it kind of funny that human babies are so fragile and helpless and useless that natural selection went like HARD-hard on humans finding babies cute. This thing is a wailing messy resource sinkhole so please find other reason to enjoy it. And the humans that did find baby cute and invest time in them, the crazy bastards?? Lived!!
And now there’s so much spill-over from “baby cute” gene that humans see literally any “baby” creature that even slightly resembles us, like
and we’re like 😍🥰🤩🥺🥺🥺 I wanna love you so bad. I wanna make so many images of you, you are so small, just baby. I’m inventing new emotions as we speak bc I love you so much.
Like, I’m almost convinced humans didn’t even domesticate dogs bc we thought they’d be useful, we saw some puppies and it activated our Big Boi Primate Baby buttons, it wasn’t even logic time baby, it was 🥺 time.
The fight against Trumps Transphobic EO has already started.
A transgender woman who is in a federal women's prison has sued the Trump administration over the “two sexes” executive order, saying it will require her to be housed in a men’s prison, putting her in danger and violating her constitutional rights.
The woman, identified by the pseudonym Maria Moe, filed the suit Sunday in U.S. District Court in Massachusetts. It names Donald Trump as a defendant, along with Acting Attorney General James R. McHenry III and William W. Lothrop, the acting director of the Bureau of Prisons. She is represented by GLBTQ Legal Advocates and Defenders, the National Center for Lesbian Rights, and the law firm of Lowenstein Sandler.
