Something I haven't seen many people talk about in PHM is the fact that Eridians probably don't have the same attitudes towards time as humans do. Think about it: Erid is an inherently dayless place, having an atmosphere that allows no light and thus no concept of day or night. We don't really think much about how our entire lives are structured around this cycle that Earth life has been experiencing for eons. Erid life has no concept of this at all. Eridian sleep schedules are somewhat irregular and not synced to each other (they can't be, not if someone always stays awake to watch). They don't track birthdays like we do, they can't unless they're paying attention to their solar cycle, which I'd expect is a relatively new thing for their culture. Maybe they base age on their near-perfect memories or how many layers their carapace has or how big they are, or experiences/accomplishments. They may have an idea of an Eridian year, if their planet has seasons or something like that, but I doubt it has a whole lot of importance to them.
I'd image having an alien who relies so heavily on cycles and repeated patterns in order to function normally would be mind-boggling to the Eridians. What do you mean it celebrates the exact day of its birth every so often, just because? Wait we need to program a reliable change in light levels to simulate its planet, which has almost no atmosphere? And we have to schedule any interactions we have with it around this cycle? Wait it tracks its age by the scientific year, not by life experience and physical aging?
Constantly being reminded that this guy Rocky brought home that saved their entire planet is, in fact, a complete alien.
"I can't believe humans would hunt the thylacine to extinction, humans are fundamentally evil" Hey, did you know that extinction was long thought to be impossible, and within 50 years of humans realizing that extinction via overhunting was a possibility it practically stopped happening? Did you know that humans are so desperate to prevent more losses that they're funneling millions of collective hours and billions of euros into helping other species? Hours and euros that could be spent on humans, and species on whom humanity's own survival does not depend? Did you know that due to an accidental introduction of rats, the Lord Howe Island stick insect population was brought down to 24 individuals and now there are tens of thousands of them?
This bug. This bug that, to most humans, is utterly useless, relatively gross, and completely foreign. Humans saved it because humans do not want to cause another extinction ever again if they can avoid it.

It's kinda cute how satisfied cats can be literally just to see birds in their general vicinity, without any actual ability to interact with them whatsoever.
I guess the playing satisfies their physical instincts for hunting? And so when they see birds it can be just like. 'Damn. I could totally catch that if I wanted to. I'm so badass. Look at all that prey, right there. I don't need to, though. But I could.'
'Straight/cis guys never have to worry about being the victims of sexual violence' is, like. Clearly untrue, and depending on context and audience sometimes an incredibly cruel thing to say. But you see the broad social and psychosocial phenomena being gestured at, and often said in a context where it's clearly more overheated or sloppy speech than considered opinion.
However. If the discussion is about interactions with law enforcement or the criminal justice system or what an appropriate punishment for something is I, uh, don't think it's too much to expect that you wait for neurons to connect before saying shit. Especially in an American context lmao.
this feels like something someone trying to dismiss sexual assault of women (both trans and cis) and V-coding would say, or, more specifically, someone who believes misandry is a real thing. Sure, sometimes cis men get sexually assaulted - just like how sometimes, cis men (with gynocomastia) get breast cancer. But if someone's talking about how breast cancer affects primarily trans men, and trans and cis women, bringing up that cis men can get breast cancer too is extremely stupid and almost certainly has ulterior motives
Right yes that's exactly what I'm doing, gold star on the amazing good faith reading. BTW what's your opinion on sexual assault rates in American men's prisons; not a real problem?
So, I did a quick google, and I can't confirm this figure directly, but one source claims that the percentage of men who are likely to experience breast cancer through their life is something like 0.01%.
According to 'many experts', 1 in 6 men have experienced some form of sexual assault or abuse within their lifetime.
I do not think that this comparison seems sound!
Polycules should be able to trade people like sports teams do
Listen -- you're a good defender and your pussy is fantastic, but that's not what our team needs right now. We're trading you to Greater Boston in exchange for someone who has a car.
people with bad political opinions are cringey and weird about sex, just like everybody else
people with bad political opinions have lots of gross sexual fetishes, but they have bad qualities too
if you click through to the blog of someone saying dumb stuff online you will always find a lot of esoteric pornography, but unfortunately you have to scroll past all the dumb stuff to find it
My manager asked if I've been drawing anything recently and I didn't have it in me to explain whatever this is lol

R.e. last post: absolute perfect description of her Genghis Khan playthrough in which she was so bad at and fundamentally uninterested in conquering that by the end of the stream when he died he was an anorexic wife guy who had had like 6 separate individual mental breakdowns. And loved his pet eagle and horsey.
the new fantasy genre, popehunk, encompasses all books in which historical figures responsible for real atrocities are presented as sexy and potentially suffering from a cute lil' anxiety disorder
some of you are saying enemies to lovers when you mean rivals to lovers and some of you are saying enemies to lovers when you mean enemies with benefits. but these are all distinct categories
See, I feel like there are actually a ton of different archetypes here?
* in-universe-acknowledged Worthy Adversaries who would stop at nothing to kill the other but genuinely respect each other
* metanarrative Worthy Adversaries who genuinely despise each other but are explicitly designed to be matched. Usually a lot of obsession going on.
* stories where the hero genuinely hopes to save the villain (usually in more fantastical stories where the bad guy's actions don't hit too close to home)
* stories where the villain is far more powerful than the hero (who might be just a normal person) and likely kidnaps them or whatever
* people on opposite sides of a conflict who genuinely like each other and wish they didn't have to fight
* two people who personally hate each other but are extremely attracted to each other (and usually end up realising they both judged the other based on their biases) (I think THIS is what a lot of people say is really 'rivals to lovers'...? But I'm honestly not sure.)
* two people who personally hate each other but slowly over time come to understand one another better (arguably should be classified 'enemies to friends to lovers' but not everyone is familiar with that term)
I guess if I had to have an opinion, there are two things that people tend to lean on to define 'Enemies to Lovers': either being on Opposite Sides in some greater conflict, or personally disliking each other. That's why it's hard to sum up easily what does or doesn't qualify, because most EtL ships will have some degree of both going on, and it's only in the extreme cases that people start disagreeing.
“you’re a grown ass man and you need help doing that?” some grown ass men are disabled ma’am
adult men who are disabled deserve compassion and understanding and support and not just endless verbal abuse from sheltered privileged assholes who think they are punching up let’s be so for real
I hear being kind is punk but is it ska? Is being kind ska? I don't care about being kind unless it's ska.

been playing a lot of sudoku lately…
every so often i am reminded that the average leftist's conception of positive masculinity is "someone who can calmly and coolly dispense violence against the people that *i* want them to"
