Nest of Twigs

giving increasingly loud sighs as I wait for my crush to ask "what's wrong?" so I can say I'm in a state of depression unless I can touch someone's boobs with no bra

I stop once I start getting short of breath

[Your crush, on the phone to someone unseen] Yeah I think she needs to be put down, her breathing-- yeah I know it can be a problem for her breed, but it's getting really bad.

I'M NOT A DOG??????

[clearly less interested now] Oh.

wait! au au

[walking over the distant horizon, towards the West]

AU AU!!! AU AU!!!!! 😭

From @aria-herself : "Start treating their different moods and headspaces as if they're different individuals. There's always some natural variation. Point out how sometimes they respond differently, or sometimes they need different types of comfort. Treat them differently in the acute ways they need to be treated differently. Let them be eternally serious in the way only someone who is always serious can be, or inevitably silly in the way only someone who is always silly can be. Let them be young as if always young, or old as if always old. Stop holding them to standards of singular consistency. Read deeply into their present needs without worrying about the contradictions that may arise. And in these variations, be always perfectly accommodating. And, discuss such practices with them, and give them room to explore any epiphanies that result from an evaluation of needs and behaviors that doesn't imply singularity."

court-ordered AA/NA is so fucking stark. legally-mandated christian cult subjection or they'll lock you in a cage [again]

the "well atheists are actually the real reactionaries :/" crowd always get very wormy and indignant about this one

There are judges in the US that have explicitly ordered church attendance. The whole concept of "separation of church and state" has been thoroughly whittled down at this point.

stop telling robots they 'pass' as a compliment, passing the turing test is not required from robots for them to be valid, also stop assuming robots even want to pass, it's not the only thing that being a robot is about and is based on anthropocentric standards that you really should be dismantling in the first place

one day you're going to decompose and i'll be there to watch it happen

this post is getting shared around more, but whats funny is most of you arent even seeing the second part. so here ya go :>

People are like “these animals have exoskeletons and these ones have endoskeletons” but no. It’s all exoskeletons, your exoskeleton is protecting your bone marrow which is where your soul (which is you) is. The rest of the stuff is extraneous decoration that Big Pharma wants you to think is important/

Sin is stored in the teeth btw which is why young children are innocent (they’ll get a do-over with replacement teeth) and the elderly are shameless (once you have no teeth to remember your sins, you have nothing to fear).

Upon review I think that maybe vodka isn’t for me.

Greek philosophers be like

say what you will about Worm. n there’s lots to say. but how strange it is to have read this massive thing in high school, this thing no one else has heard of. and then grow and a decade later learn that the weird on the internet who i’ve befriended have also read this whole long thing.

Always remember birds are dinosaurs

"We need more complex female characters" you guys can't even handle Chappell Roan, Real Life Woman with Boundaries

it’s fun that Mormonism is based off pseudo-archeology and Scientology is based off pseudo-psychiatry. By that logic the big American New Religious Movement of the 21st century is gonna be based on… pseudo-computer science?

Oh my god my mutual that I have a parasocial relationship with just reblogged my post, the world is good again for a moment
