People are unfazed if you hate women but if you dislike dogs they assume you're a bad person
More examples of the WORST mansplaining here.
This might be my favorite
This is mine
I'm tired of the new-to-me "Everything in the universe must be simple, but Wokely" going around that says all queerphobia is just misogyny. No. If that were true then queerphobia wouldn't be more violent than misogyny. (Trans people of all genders are more likely to be assaulted or raped than cis women.) If that were true then homophobia wouldn't be applied to masc gay men. (It is.) If that were true then intersectionalities like transmisogyny, the unique challenges of gay trans men, etc., wouldn't exist, because misogyny doesn't intersect with itself. That is senseless.
And of course I'm seeing this idea paired with "Trans men don't experience discrimination", which is also not true. If that were true then I wouldn't be safer/more respected when I allow people to treat me as a woman. Most of the time IRL I am viewed as a woman. When I'm not, I'm generally viewed as a trans man or as nonbinary. Woman is the safe one. Not as safe as cis man, but that isn't an option I get.
Queerphobia is complicated, but it does actually exist. It isn't just misogyny. People actually hate us just for being queer, not just for how we relate to women.
but do you play shorter games with worse graphics made by people who are paid more to work less đ¤¨
the thing about "I want shorter games with worse graphics made by people who are paid more to work less and I'm not kidding" is that these games exist and are out there and you have to make the conscious choice to seek them out instead of just expecting the big companies to deliver this, because they will not

one of the biggest issues for feminism and indeed society as a whole that i run into a lot is people don't realise just how weird and interesting snakes actually are. they're genuinely incredibly unique as vertebrates with many amazing adaptations to their lifestyle and body type and nobody knows!!!
the other legless lizards are fascinating in a different way because they mostly lack these adaptations to limblessness, but kind of just get along fine anyway
a few interesting things about serpents
Miss Nebet, a spotted python (Antaresia maculosa) who will be serving as our live model for today.
many of these are probably well-known; others have surprised even other snake owners.
Snakes (suborder Serpentes) are lizards (belonging to order Squamata). Snakes are no longer thought to be a group outside of all other lizards; snakes are more closely related to iguanas than iguanas are to geckos, for example. The closest living relatives of snakes are Iguania (for example iguanas, chameleons, and dragons) and Anguimorpha (for example galliwasps, beaded lizards and monitors). Snakes are also relatively closely related to mosasaurs (such as the lovely Platecarpus pictured below), with some proposals suggesting mosasaurs are their closest squamate cousins. The various other legless lizards arise from all across Squamata, and aren't necessarily closely related to eachother or to snakes.
Snakes are almost entirely composed of "torso", with their ribcage extending down the majority (~90%) of their length and only a short neck and tail. The tail begins just after the is usually distinguishable by a slight narrowing and an end to the wide, flat ventral (belly) scales. By contrast, most other legless lizards have long tails making up a large portion of their overall length.
The green bar marks the approximate beginning of the tail, the diagram demonstrates the layout of belly and tail scales in two species. On her request, I have not included an image of Nebet's vent as it would be improper.
Snake ribs are jointed and manipulable, serving a role in movement, constriction and Their flat ventral (belly) scales are independently mobile, and can be raised in sections to create friction or flattened to glide across a surface. Both of these features are lacking in other legless lizards.
Miss Nebet's very cute pink ventral scales.
These unique features allow snakes to use four (conservatively; I have seen categorisations as high as eleven) separate methods of locomotion, combining these different methods in many ways to move across all sorts of surfaces. These methods include lateral undulation, in which the snake exerts muscles all across its body to push against the terrain in a typical serpentine motion, concertina, in which the snake pulls its body into bunches then extends in an accordion-like manner, rectilinear, in which the snake flexes muscles across its length while manipulating its ventral scales to drag itself in a straight line, and sidewinding, in which the snake 'throws' itself at an angle to traverse a slippery surface with little traction. Other legless lizards use simple undulation only, a more basic method of movement involving essentially wriggling in waves.
Snakes do not 'unhinge' or dislocate their jaws when eating- rather, the lower jaw is split into two halves with a flexible attachment to the skull, allowing them to be independently 'walked' over prey. This allows them to swallow prey items much larger than the size of their head would suggest. Other legless lizards lack this bifurcated jaw, although they typically have very flexible skulls to allow them to swallow larger prey.
An Indian Rock Python (Python molurus) skull demonstrating the bifurcated jaw and Nebet demonstrating its utility in swallowing a mousey.
Snakes possess several unusual sensory organs depending on species. The first is their famous forked tongue. They flick their tongues to collect scents from the air then return it to a special cavity on the roof of their mouth (called the vomeronasal or Jacobson's organ) that allows them to detect chemical information. The fork in their tongue makes the sensing directional. They can also smell 'normally' through their nostrils.
The second of their unusual sensory organs is their heat pits, found in boas, pythons and pit vipers. These special rows of pits on (some) snakes' faces allow them to sense infrared thermal radiation. This adaptation, not found in any other lizard, has evolved independently multiple times across snake species.
Contrary to popular belief, snakes do possess ears and can hear sounds, although they lack visible external ears. They are also sensitive to groundborne vibrations through their jaw. Other legless lizards typically have visible, external ears.
Nebet's forked tongue and heat pits (circled in pink). Scientifically speaking, these can also be referred to as 'charm points'. This is just a few interesting things about snakes, the most beautiful and lovely vertebrates in the entire world. I haven't even talked about their teeth and fangs, the different kinds of specialised scales they can have, their venom or all sorts of other things. Please say thank you to Nebet for taking the time out of her day to have her photo taken for us, and please love and adore all serpents you meet!
when thinking about how oppression works, on a structural level, my guiding principle is that I must spend at least as much time looking down as I do looking up.
what do I mean by this? here's an example. when my surgery is delayed multiple times, I spend a little time looking up (there is only one surgeon in the entire area who will perform this surgery on trans people, so every trans person's surgical timeline is bottle-necked and delayed by months every time he goes to a conference or takes a vacation or experiences an injury. in other words, if I was cis, I would not encounter this difficulty in accessing surgery). and then I spend time looking down (due to nonstop harassment and legal threats, this practice now only treats adults and will no longer perform surgeries on minors. in other words, my access to surgery is predicated on adult privilege I have at the direct expense of trans youth's lack of access).
if you do not build a habit around thinking in this way, you will become the person Audre Lorde describes as "so enamored of her own oppression that she cannot see her heelprint upon another woman's face." If we are seeking to dismantle structures of oppression, rather than to simply use and climb them, then we absolutely must make a practice of looking in both directions, especially when we feel like we're on the bottom.
Give me less "being kind requires zero effort" and more "being kind is worth the effort it takes."

this might piss some people off but I donât think some of you actually ever tried to unlearn your hatefulness. you just came out as queer and decided your new targets really truly deserve it this time.
you. you get it.

Baby Tigerĺ°čć§, 2018, Zhelong Xu
The gloss glaze on the tigre de cerĂĄmica (pequeĂąo y gordo) is FLAWLESS. Just. Drawing attention to that. Beautiful.
i thought my laptop was on its last leg because it was running at six billion degrees and using 100% disk space at all times and then i turned off shadows and some other windows effects and it was immediately cured. i just did the same to my roommate's computer and its performance issues were also immediately cured. okay. i guess.
so i guess if you have creaky freezy windows 10/11 try searching "advanced system settings", go to performance settings, and uncheck "show shadows under windows" and anything else you don't want. hope that helps someone else.
hey this is apparently helping a lot of people! adding that on top of this you can also go to settings > personalization > colors and turn off transparency to also boost performance. this wasn't the Big Fix for me but might as well do that too if you're trying to optimize.
past a certain note threshold on tumblr posts you unlock a bloodborne-esque insight and the strange lives of this site's users become visible to you
(x)
we fucking found them?
Ok I know we joke about this but I just went to the settings and first clicked "adjust for best performance" and then re-checked only 1 box:
"Smooth edges of screen fonts"
My computer was running hot before I turned everything off; the office I'm in is very warm, I could feel the heat of my CPU through the keyboard. The fans were going, not as loud as they usually get, but they were still blasting.
Y'all.
I can barely feel the warmth through the keyboard now. It's been like 2 minutes. The fan is nearly silent.
Click the Windows key and start typing "System settings", and "View Advanced system settings" will pop up. Then click "Settings" under Performance:
Then you'll see this:
TURN IT ALL OFF.
I turned "Show window contents while dragging" and then turned that off again. It's up to you.
My computer is so quiet and reasonably-temperatured now and I barely notice a difference in utility, why is windows like this
maybe I can even play computer games again
The second best thing you can do for a Win10 computer is turn off whatever unnecessary services it's decided it needs to run in the background always. Some services it does need, but others are useless. Here's an article that goes into step by steps.
10AppsManager lets you uninstall bloatware. Winaero Tweaker lets you disable crap like Cortana/Copilot, ads, telemetry, internet search results when you search from the taskbar, and all kinds of other stuff, plus it gives you lots of other little options that are just nice to have (like, it can restore the old MS Paint program in place of Paint 3D). Both are totally free.
Oh, and check your startup programs in the Task Manager tab to make sure your computer isn't automatically starting eight million programs every time it boots. But I think people mostly know about that. (Unless this is me going "they only know one or two feldspars... and quartz of course.")
The first best thing you can do for a Windows computer is install Linux Mint. But some of us do need a few pesky Windows-specific programs. Bleh. Still, if you're up for a project, you can have both (and it's awesome). Here's an article about setting up a dual boot Windows/Mint system.
i support universal free healthcare for one simple reason: if you are diagnosed with a terminal illness you should quit your job. quitting your job is the correct response to terminal illness. but you canât do that if your healthcare is tied to your job
listen if somebody knows that they will be dead in a years time, and you are forcing them to continue to come into work, thatâs fucked up. terminally ill people should be able to quit their jobs and live their last few months to the fullest. i donât get how thatâs a controversial opinion
"Diversity of opinion" but the opinions are "We should use a chainsaw to rescue a cat from a tree" and "We should trap more cats on the tree and then set it on fire"
To clarify: If those are your only options (and they often are) it's your moral imperative to choose the chainsaw.
Fuck this rhetoric. You are not obligated to choose the chainsaw. Go create a better solution.

being anti-amatonormativity in a romance centered world is like watching half the people you know put all their eggs in one basket and then drop the basket and all their eggs break and theyâre crying and swearing theyâre never gonna do that again and then a month later they have all new eggs in a new basket and they tell you the problem was they didnât have a strong enough basket or fresh enough eggs and then they drop the fucking basket again.

âbits to use in everyday conversationsâ
hate those "is it romantic or platonic attraction" quizzes that are like 'do you see yourself holding hands with them?" or "do you get excited when you find something in common?" like babe be more specific. i want to hold my friend's hands. i get excited when i find out i share an interest with someone.
Frr these quizzes are little so confusing (as an very touchy aroace guy). I'd love to even sleep with my friend/alterous partner and NOT in a sexual/romantic way. Like , I would honestly like to share a bed and be clingy with someone. And that not mean more you love touchy stuff it's had to be romantic...đĽ
Reblogging this again because
I sleep with my best friend. I'm giddy about the fact that it's OUR bedroom, OUR bed. One of the things he enjoys on vacation is being able to stay up late enough to cuddle me before we go to sleep. And it is completely platonic.
