my ancestors seeing me shrug off a diarrhea session
You all, fools: *getting tattoos based on the ancient tattoos they find on bog mummies and the other ancient dead that for all you know will bind you to a forgotten god that now by all rights has a claim on your life for better or for worse*
Me, and intellectual: *doesnt fucking do that*
A forgotten god cannot run my life any worse than I am currently running it myself.
Bog mummy take the wheel
someone explain the jewish holidays to me like i'm 5 years old
Purim: They tried to kill us, we survived. Letโs tell the story, wear silly costumes, and get wasted. (Optional: have a carnival or a play!)
Passover: They enslaved us, God freed us. Remember this via a big ceremony/feast and then donโt eat bread for a week. This is a big one; youโre going to have to clean your house and host all your relatives.
Tu B'Shevat: Itโs Earth Day, letโs eat some fruit.
Simchas Torah: We read the entire Torah every year, and we got to the end! Letโs have a dance party and then start all over again!
Tisha B'Av: They destroyed our temples. That sucked.
Rosh HaShanah: Happy New Year! Itโs time to ask (and grant) forgiveness for the wrongs done in the past year, pledge to do better, and wish for a sweet new year. And go to synagogue for HOURS.
Yom Kippur: Rosh HaShanahโs somber counterpart. God decides on this day your fate for the next year. Repent your sins, hope for forgiveness, and fast. (And go to synagogue for HOURS.)
Yom HaShoah: Holocaust Remembrance Day.
Sukkot: Harvest festival! Sleep in a hut under the stars.
Shemini Atzeret: Man, I donโt even know?
Shavuot: God gave us the Torah! That was pretty nice of him.
Chanukah: They busted up our temple and tried to forcibly convert us. We responded with guerilla warfare. Letโs eat some fried food. Candles!
So basically the entire Jewish holiday calendar is giving the middle finger to death and high-fiving, with or without various combinations of prayer and foods.
Yup. Or as we say, โThey tried to kill us, we survived, letโs eat.โ
thank you for the descโs bcs they are beautiful and i am now educated

Can we please talk about how our history teacher sent a barbie to the smithsonian as proof of the presence of man two million years ago
pleas,e for the love of God read the whole letter, there are tears streamign down my face rn
Can we please talk about how your history teacher has done this sort of thing enough times that he has his own specimen shelf in the Smithsonian
โyours in scienceโ tho
โB. Clams donโt have teethโ is the part where I lost it.
@zozi-writes
The letter says:
โThank you for your latest submission to the Institute, labeledย โ211-D, layer seven, next to the clothesline post. Hominid skull.โ We have gien this specimen a careful and detailed examination and regret to inform you that we disagree with you theory that it representsย โconclusive proof of the presence of Early Man in Charleston County two million years ago.โ Rather, it appears that what you have found is the head of a Barbie doll, of the variety one of our staff, who has small children, believes to be theย โMalibu Barbieโ. It is evident that you have given a great deal of thought to the analysis of this specimen, and you may be quite certain that those of us who are familiar with your prior work in the field were loathe to come to contradiction with your findings. However, we do feel that there are a number of physical attributes of the specimen which might have tipped you off to itโs modern origin:
The material is molded plastic. Ancient hominid remains are typically fossilized bone.
The cranial capacity of the specimen is approximately 9 cubic centimeters, well below the threshold of even the earliest identified proto-hominids.
The dentition patters evident on theย โskullโ is more consistent with the common domesticated dog than it is with theย โravenous man-eating Pliocene clamsโ you speculate roamed the wetlands during that time.This latter finding is certainly one of the most intriguing hypotheses you have submitted in your history with this institution, but the evidence seems to weigh rather heavily against it. Without going into too much detail, let us say that:
A) The specimen looks like the head of a Barbie doll that a dog has chewed on.
Clams donโt have teeth.
It is with feelings tinged with melancholy that we must deny your request to have the specimen carbon dated. This is partially due to the heavy load our lab must bear in itโs normal operation, and partly due to carbon datingโs notorious inaccuracy in fossils of recent geologic record. To the best of our knowledge, no Barbie dolls were produced prior to 1956 AD, and carbon dating is likely to produce wildly inaccurate results. Sadly , we must also deny your request that we approach the National Science Foundationโs Phylogeny Department with the concept of assigning your specimen the scientific nameย โAustralopithecus spiff-arino.โ Speaking personally, I for one, fought tenaciously for the acceptance of your proposed taxonomy, but was ultimately voted down because the species name you selected was hyphenated, and didnโt really sound like it might be Latin.
However, we gladly accept your generous donation of this fascinating specimen to the museum. While it is undoubtedly not a hominid fossil, it is, nonetheless, yet another riveting example of the great body of work you seem to accumulate here so effortlessly. You should know that our Director has reserved a special shelf in his own office for the display of the specimens you have previously submitted to the Institution, and the entire staff speculates daily on what you will happen upon next in your digs at the site you have discovered in your back yard. We eagerly anticipate your trip to or nationโs capital that you proposed in you last letter, and several of us are pressing the Director to pay for it. We are particularly interested in hearing you expand on your theories surrounding theย โtrans-positating fillifitation of ferrous ions in a structural matrixโ that makes the excellent juvenile Tyrannosaurus rex femur you recently discovered take on the deceptive appearance of a rusty 9-mm Sears Craftsman automotive crescent wrench.
Yours in Science,

Harvey Rowe was a grad student from Charleston, South Carolina who wrote the letter in 1994 as a joke for his friends. it was always intended as a piece of creative writing, but it went viral and the context got lost

These dudes are fucking legit. ย They donโt just show up one day in court, either, they actually make friends with the kids and let them know they have a support system and that there are people in the world who care about them and will always have their back. ย And less important, but also cool, is that the few times a couple of them have come into my cafe, theyโve been super friendly and polite and when I told one of the guys that I noticed his Bikers Against Child Abuse patch and wanted him to know how awesome I thought he was because of it, he got kind of shy and blushed and said, โThe kids are the awesome ones, we just let them know theyโre allowed to be brave.โ
The source is long, but so, so good. These men and women are available in 36 states, 24 hours a day to stand guard at home, in court, at school, even if the child has a nightmare. Many of them are survivors of childhood abuse as well, and know what itโs like to feel scared and alone.
In court that day, the judge asked the boy, โAre you afraid?โ No, the boy said.
Pipes says the judge seemed surprised, and asked, โWhy not?โ
The boy glanced at Pipes and the other bikers sitting in the front row, two more standing on each side of the courtroom door, and told the judge, โBecause my friends are scarier than he is.โ
Actual tears.. hnngh
Show me more of people like this, world. I give up on humans too easily.
where do i sign up for this,i want to be in this gang
This is fucking amazing. It may be out of character for me to say this but rock on
Bikers Against Child Abuse was founded in 1995 by a Native American child psychologist whose ride name is Chief, when he came across a young boy who had been subjected to extreme abuse and was too afraid to leave his house. He called the boy to reach out to him, but the only thing that seemed to interest the child was Chiefโs bike. Soon, some 20 bikers went to the boyโs neighborhood and were able to draw him out of his house for the first time in weeks.
Chiefโs thesis was that a child who has been abused by an adult can benefit psychologically from the presence of even more intimidating adults that they know are on their side. โWhen we tell a child they donโt have to be afraid, they believe us,โ Arizona biker Pipes told azcentral.com. โWhen we tell them we will be there for them, they believe us.โ ( Article)
More about BACA, from their site
My parents are a part of this organization and they are metal af
They go on runs to protect the child if they feel even the slightest threatened no matter where. If the child needs them to go on vacation with them, they do. Bikers come from across the nation to watch over and take shifts for these kids. And the best part is once youโre adopted into this family as a BACA kid, youโre always one. Even when youโre 40 and the perp gets released from jail, theyโll come meet with you and find your best options for avoiding the person and maintaining the life youโve built for yourself. Once a BACA child, always a BACA child. In Florida, thereโs 100% rate for identifying the perp based on the childโs testimony. Why? Because BACA stands with the child and supports the child so they feel comfortable enough to point out their attacker.
Whatโs better than a badass biker gang being on your side???
NATIVE AMERICAN CHILD PSYCHOLOGIST WHO IS A BIKER AND NAMED HIMSELF CHIEF HELL YES IโM HERE FOR THAT AND BIKERS BEING BAD ASS TO PROTECT KIDS. HELL YEAH.
itโs back! I will always reblog BACA
Damn good people.
I know they wouldnโt consider themselves such, but these people are freaking heroes and the world is a better place because of them.ย
Hey folks, it talks about this in the article but its not mentioned in this post, BACA is a 501 ยฉ (3) charity that depends in part on donations to help pay for stuff like gas for their bikes. If you want to help, consider donating.ย
@copperbadge You like posting about heroes, Sam. Seems like this would be up your alley.
I love these folks! Iโve reblogged them before but itโs wonderful to see the donation information has been added.ย
Always reblog. Keep doing what youโre doing y'all.
Guys? This post changed my life. I saw this post. Forever ago. And thought it was only in americaโฆ and wished desperately that they could help me. But then I saw it again, during a bad episode, and checked their site. They arenโt just in the USA
Theyโre in Canada as well and probably other countries. I met and talked with a native guy who runs the place near me. His name is Shaman. I got in, and Iโm considered a BACA child now. Despite being 17, turning 18 when I talked to them. They spent time with me when my abuser was over, they gave me therapy resources. They give you something called aย โlevel 1โฒ where they go to your house with as many bikers as they can, i shit you not a solid 20-40 bikers came from even out of province, and met me. I got to choose my biker name and I got a vest with patches on it and my name on it. They all hugged a Teddybear before giving it to me, and told me if I ever felt the BACA bear was running out of love, to give them a call and theyโd refill it for me, and then I got a ride on one of their bikes. Just a day or so ago I went to an annual party with them and they we ate food one of them cooked and had a lot of laughs.ย
Iโve never felt as loved as I did being a part of the BACA family. They also gave me dog tags with the names, and phone numbers of my 2 workers.ย So I can call them whenever I feel scared.ย
BACA is an absolutely wonderful group that will do everything in itโs power to help any child whos been abused.ย
And it doesnโt end when youโre 18 either. As long as you get in contact/get your level 1 before youโre 18? youโre ALWAYS a BACA kid. Iโm 18 now and they still invite me to parties, ask me if Iโm okay, and are there for me. Theyโre still trying to find me resources for therapy.ย
BACA has changed my fucking life.ย
I hope you all can read this, and reblog it knowing from someone who fucking been with them, that they are absolutely amazing.ย
If I ever donโt reblog this, itโs because I am physically being restrained against my will.
I need to look into this more
THIS is what *motherfucking HERO MODE* looks like.
vibes of that experimental time in animated kids movies: alt indie, gay, STRONG aesthetic, weirdly dark, epic world-building, gay again, found family as fuck, demon ladies, cat ladies, father issues, SHIPS AND STUFF
idk what was UP with this time period, but I want to embody whatever these vibes were into my very soul
wish there were some unseen omnipotent voice shoutingย โWARMERโ orย โCOLDERโ everytime i make a decision because i am pretty much flying blind here
How could you leave this in the tags?

Parineeti Chopra responds to a male reporter who claims to know nothing about periods (menstrual cycle). [X]
SO IMPORTANT.
I started my period when I was 10 years old. But we didnโt tell my grandma for three years because she subscribed to the โold traditionsโ, where a woman on her period could not enter the house, not even to bathe. Where she had to sit outside in front of the house (where the whole village could be witness to her shame and isolation) for the entire duration.
My friend started her period unexpectedly while we were at our local temple (in America) for dance class. Asking around if any of the parents had pads (all of them apologized and acted like adults about it), I thought surely the front office has a first aid kit. Donโt they have pads? When we asked, not only did they not have any, when one of the women gave one from her purse, the head secretary told us โThere are men who need to use the first-aid kit, ya? So we donโt keep period things there.โ Not even ibuprofen (which has so many more uses than period pain).
There are girls in India and Nepal (and other places, but I just read an in-depth piece about the situations in Nepal) who have to go to the โperiod hutโ when their period comes and not leave until its over. They canโt wash and dry their cloth pads in the daylight, so they do it at night when the pads wonโt dry properly before their next use, making them vulnerable to infection.
It is incredibly important, especially in India, to break the taboo surrounding periods. Break the secrecy around an event that happens to almost every woman, every month for literally half of her lifetime. Break the hiding, break the cover-up, break the SHAME.
Just break EVERYTHING. So little girls can go to school every day of every month without feeling ashamed. So women can work every day of every month to provide for their families without being glared at. So single fathers can confidently take care of their daughtersโ health. So that women can talk about how terrible their period is or isnโt and give each other advice on how to deal with it without looking around to make sure men arenโt listening. So that Whisper doesnโt have to be called Whisper, it can be called SHOUT. It can be called PROUD. So that we donโt NEED to fucking WHISPER about our bodies and our health.

I used to get in trouble with my mentor in undergrad because I was obsessed with this style of chair and every period piece where it would fit, Iโd cram one into my scene design. If I knew a three-person one existed my 21-year-old brain would have exploded in joy.ย
So I found this cool website for learning ancient languages
go wild
holy fuck
I just did a quick perusal of the Coptic resources on this site, and it has all the resources Iโve personally found worthwhile and then some. These are resources that took me months, if not years, to discover and compile. I am thoroughly impressed. The other languages featured on the site are:
Akkadian
Arabic
Aramaic
Church Slavonic
Egyptian (hieroglyphics and Demotic)
Elamite
Ethiopic (Geโez)
Etruscan
Gaulish
Georgian
Gothic
Greek
Hebrew
Hittite
Latin
Mayan (various related languages/dialects)
Old Chinese
Old English
Old French
Old Frisian
Old High German
Old Irish
Old Norse
Old Persian
Old Turkic
Sanskrit
Sumerian
Syriac
Ugaritic
For the love of all the gods, if you ever wanted to learn any of these languages, use this site.
Might be useful for some of you.

Morocco is one of the coldest countries in Africa (probably second to Lesotho). Ouarzazate has some of the coldest nights on average and Ifrane is recorded to have had the coldest temperature in African history, reaching -23,9 C/-11 F on February 11, 1935.
I take pride in this.
Shoutout to Lesotho, South Africa, Ethiopia, Algeria and Kenya for representing African Alpine culture.
African Alpine culture produces the best wool cloaks, so itโs definitely a thing.

THISSSSSS ๐๐ผ๐๐ผ๐๐ผ
Reading darkfic only gives me empathy for the characters, doesn't make me evil.
How's this for a hot take?
Consuming dark fiction, though it allows the audience to empathise with morally dubious or outright evil characters, nonetheless increases their overall amount of internal empathy towards other people. Not just bad people benefit from an overall increase in empathy.
Consuming exclusively sanitised, fluffy feel-good fiction with no counterbalancing dark sides does not increase the audience's empathy, because anyone who cannot empathise with The Littlest Cinnamon Roll, who has adventures dealing with happiness and friendship and harmony, is already a lost cause. Rather, such fiction, when all other kinds are excluded, normalises the idea that the only people worth empathising with are the morally pure cinnamon rolls who have never done anything wrong in their entire lives. The normalisation, and reinforcement of same through the standard life cycle of a fandom, reaches such a point that as soon as the characters in question step outside the boundaries of that bubble of innocence by doing (1) problematic thing, they are cancelled for crimes against humanity and the fandom tears itself apart.
This is my explanation for not only why fandoms for fun kids' shows tear themselves apart over the slightest perceived creative slip-up, but also why the most passionately engaged fans of these things (who more often than not precipitate the rot/collapse) tend to be such toxic people in all other spheres of life as well.
Scalding. I dare say boiling. Bravo
A witch is a magic user with more focus on medicine and the body and a wizard is a magic user with more focus on like physics and academia. I donโt know what dingus made up one day that theyโre just the 2 magic genders, that sounds stupid
