A Horse power being only 735 watt is honestly so weird like that's not even enough to run a modern game on decent seatings
You wanna know what's fucked?
Your brain is a 25-watt computer.
Brain is 25% of your energy consumption, you burn about 100 watts of power (about 100 joules per second). You're a 25-watt computer.
I don't like that fact
No but for real. Your brain is one of the most advanced machines known to exist. It's a computer capable of running a sapient intelligence on - and I cannot stress this enough - 25 watts of broccoli and stew. What the fuck.
It's a cool fact it just makes me uncomfortable
you can even run doom on it
yall are so fucking weird about gnc people. a woman wears a suit and she's "conforming to the patriarchy". a man wears a skirt and he's Secretly A Trans Egg. have you considered It's Fabric
You would not believe the things I have heard as a transfem butch.
I once said something along the lines of "why does everyone assume that every gnc cis man is an egg" and was harassed for it and sarcastically told that obviously the treatment of cis men should be our biggest concern and that I didn't know anything about egg culture (I do). You do realize that gnc people are queer too, right? You realize I can concern myself with "smaller" problems, because I love gnc people and am concerned about their well-being? You realize that telling people they must be trans because of their presentation is just as bad as telling someone must be cis for the same reasons?
I'm never going to shut up about how shitty the queer community treats gender non-conforming people, especially gender non-conforming men.
also the treatment of gnc cis men tells me a lot about how you'd treat gnc trans men. like, you think that if a man likes feminine clothing he's secretly a woman? do you know how many people have told me i'm not "actually trans" because i like feminine clothing? stop reinforcing gender norms i am Begging
“What, to the American slave, is your 4th of July? I answer; one day that reveals to him, more than all other days in the year, the gross injustice and cruelty to which he is the constant victim. To him, your celebration is a sham; your boasted liberty, an unholy license; your national greatness, swelling vanity; your sound of rejoicing are empty and heartless; your denunciation of tyrants brass fronted impudence; your shout of liberty and equality, hallow mockery; your prayers and hyms [sic], your sermons and thanks-givings, with all your religious parade and solemnity, are to him, mere bombast, fraud, deception, impiety, and hypocrisy – a thin veil to cover up crimes which would disgrace a nation of savages. There is not a nation on the earth guilty of practices more shocking and bloody than are the people of the United States, at this very hour.”
— Frederick Douglass (1818-1895), from a speech given at Rochester, New York, July 5, 1852.
TIL that in medieval times trebuchets were sometimes used during tournaments to bombard the watching ladies with roses, and there is something so inherently comedic about this to me. picture me blasting roses at my lover's window with the force of a battlefield assault to win her hand

Polish folks LARPing as Americans, some photographs of (by Maciej Margielski)
More phots here.
More info on the LARP (4th of July) here. (You can join this year's, there are still spots left.)
hiri hiri hiri congrats on dishwasher and yes cleaning the filter is a good idea but also you should make sure to use maintenance products regularly! there are some that run on empty cycles and some that can be chucked in a normal cycle. it might even fix your does-not-clean-everything-perfectly problem. i've used them every month like clockwork ever since i got my dishwasher and it's still going pristine, whereas my mom doesn't and keeps having her dishwashers go useless on her after a couple of years. (i told her this when i realised, and she bought and used one and IMMEDIATELY saw a difference)
OOH noted!! I've seen those around, i'll pick some up. I grabbed a rinse aid when my dishes started coming out with a bit of a white film, which only sort of helped, but it only started doing that a few weeks ago. I've only been living here since May so I want to keep it in the best shape i can
podcast women ask: have you seen the daisy tonner comments song. its a modern masterpiece i think
I have not! What is it? I also only sort of know who Daisy Tonner is oops
okay well first off i do highly recommend listening to tma but i think you can get the gist of it without it. the song tells you everything you need to know about her really.
its just a silly little song about the comments on her wiki page but its very catchy and "1. all cops are bastards 2. i am gay" has lived rent free in my head for several years
What would you rather find living in your attic/basement/spare room?
1000 cockroaches
One man
If you don't have one of those, imagine that you do.
Okay but we need more info there are so many variables here.
Is the guy chill and just needs a comfy place to sleep? Will he just leave if I ask nicely or at least help pay rent and tidy up? Or is he planning to wear my skin as a suit? If yes do we have to fight to the death?
What type of cockroaches? German? Not ideal, super hard to get rid of. Smoky brown? Kinda chill, mostly wanna be outside, maybe I have a moisture problem. Madagascan hissing? Slightly concerned about where they came from but excited about my 1000 new pets.
What would you rather find living in your basement/attic/spare room?
Man who wants to wear your skin as a suit, have to fight him
Man who is pretty chill, will leave if asked
1000 German cockroaches, gotta call pest control
1000 smoky brown cockroaches, gotta address your moisture issue
1000 Madagascan hissing cockroaches, very cute
happy 4th of july to this image the official boston fire department made and posted to twitter like 3 years ago. i will not let it die.

Getting down on my knees and thanking the humans who invented dishwashers and washing machines.
InsNe that dishwashers are more efficient and easier than just washing them manually but they also use less water. It’s a win win situation
They ALSO sterilize dishes, due to operating at a far higher temperature than human hands could ever tolerate. It's a win every way.
Made this post about 15 minutes after the repair guy who fixed the pump on my dishwasher packed up his tools and left, as the dishwasher was whirring along doing my dishes from that morning.
He said the exact same thing, which I did not know before that, so spreading this knowledge.
You just teleported to the last movie you watched! how is it going?

at a conference I attended recently, a researcher pointed to the difficulty of finding material in archives because so much depends on the metadata and the terminology used to describe things changes over time. "it would be so helpful," the researcher said, "if I typed 'lesbian' into the library of congress database, it would also show me results that were categorised in the 50s, when the materials were interpreted as 'intimate female friendships'"
which is what tag wrangles at Archive Of Our Own do incredibly effectively: searching for "omegaverse" also leads to "alpha/beta/omega dynamics" and "alternate universe: a/b/o" and so on. but ao3 achieves this frankly incredible categorisation and indexing system by the power of countless volunteers putting in hours and hours of unpaid and unthanked free time, and it's completely understandable that most archives do not have that kind of infrastructure, but also how incredible that a fan-run website has better searchability, classification, and accessibility than the library of congress
Has either of your parents ever accidentally called you/your siblings the wrong name? (someone else's name, like other sibling, pet, etc)
Yes, at least once
No, but I've seen it happen to someone else
No, never
I don't have pets/siblings/parents/hair
Have you ever taken a martial arts class?
Karate
Boxing
Muay Thai
Wrestling
Judo
Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu
Tai Chi
Capoeira
MMA (mixed martial arts)
I’ve taken more than one martial arts class
Since I can’t fit every martial art on this list, say which one you took below
I’ve never taken a martial arts class

wait. what do y'all set your home AC to? 78° F is our normal (and local officials exhort people to set it there regularly). if there are potential grid issues we raise it to 80°
In the summer our AC is set to:
<70° F
70-72° F
73-75°
76-78°
>78° F
Don't have/don't use AC
