"having a large chest is the beauty standard" no having a large chest is the Sexual standard theres a difference. i can only even be Hot and everything i ever wear will be deemed too sexual for every single situation. tank top shows too much cleavege or side boob a button up is always too busty and a crop top will always show too much skin. having a large chest leads to so much back pain and sexualization and complaining about it makes people go "ahh grass is alwahs greener/you are the beauty standard, why complain?" like genuinely i urge yall to watch anything with a larger chested woman and notice, REALLY notice, that her chest is her entire personality. notice that people critiqing misogynist charavter designs alwayd tend to rally in the statement that large chest=misogny, casting aside the Many Many Many women and people who look like Me and just . have a large chest? and exist? and deserve respect and not to be seen as nothing more than a sex symbol by both sides? idk ikdayy
"Oh yeah, we have an outdoor Corgi, he just gets so bored cooped up inside all day. He knows to stay off the road. Don't worry, he's way too smart for coyotes and the neighbor's know to look out when they drive past."
"Us? Oh, of *course* our Dachshund sleeps inside- we just let him out in the morning and make sure he comes back for dinner. He just does his own thing, no worries."
"Um, you know it's not humane to keep a chihuahua confined to an apartment? They're dogs, they're natural predators. They need to experience hunting behaviors or they get depressed. No we don't leash ours, he absolutely hates it, we just let him come and go whenever."
Yall get how fucking stupid that sounds, right? So stop letting your goddamn cats get eaten and attacked and infected and hit by cars

Everyone reblogging this post saying stuff like "they probably changed it because of copyright/dated reference" NEEDS to know that 1. There are multiple references to Doctor Who and Star Trek and a character probably named after someone from Battlestar Galactica of all things and 2. The lead writer for the localization stuff with Ace Attorney uses they/them pronouns.
anyone else feeling rather... annoyed at the way ppl have come to define and use queerplatonic and qprs? So many times I see ppl talk abt qprs saying they're "friendship but Deeper" or "a relationship strictly between friendship and romance" or "essentially romance lite/romance for aromantics" and like. A qpr definitely can be all that if the participants want that, but to say that this is THE definition of queerplatonic is actually going directly against the very goal for which the term was created. Queerplatonic was supposed to give us a word to be able to talk about relationships that don't fit neatly into the "romantic" and "platonic" boxes, whilst also deconstructing the relationship hierarchy and the idea that friendships are fundamentally lesser than romantic relationships. So can we please stop using qprs as a way to once again make friendships seem like a lesser form of relationship and to reinforce the relationship hierarchy? Please?
Afaik the original definition of a qpr was smth along the lines of "a relationship that doesn't fit the traditional boundaries of a friendship". By that definition? A loveless friendship would be a qpr. A "friendship" between two aplatonics would be a qpr. A friendship where they specifically feel less emotionally connected to one another than is expected of a "normal" friendship would be a qpr. Just like how queerness isn't fundamentally about love, queerplatonicism, i.e. queering the platonic, isn't fundamentally about "putting more love" into friendships. It can be, but it doesn't have to be.

friendly reminder that "grace starves on the way to erid" is pure fanon. like, it's interesting fanon, but it's fanon. please tag your "grace starves on the way to erid au" as an au
To be fair, it's partially because the numbers don't add up to "yeah we can make it to Erid no problem," at least for me.
This is super long, and it's a lot of math, so I'm putting it under a readmore. tl;dr: if you choose to believe the character Ryland Grace when he says he has enough food to get to Erid plus a few months aftewards, that's totally valid, but you can also choose to believe Andy "Numbers Man" Weir's numbers, and if you do that you get 3.205-3.21 months of taumoeba shenanigans before Grace and Rocky get to Erid where you can fuck with Grace's nutritional intake quite a bit and still keep things on-timeline
Grace says he has enough food to get to Erid and then for a few months more on page 468, but he also gives us some hard numbers earlier in the book: he has 40 months of coma slurry (page 417), and 51 days of real food left the day of the taumoeba outbreak (page 434)(Grace has had like one serving of coma slurry at that point but his estimate of real food has decreased significantly which is why I'm using 51 days instead of his estimate from page 417 which is three months), meaning he's got 41.7 months of varying qualities of human chow left when he discovers the taumoeba outbreak. It also took him 35 (six weeks, page 455) to get to Rocky after the taumoeba leak, meaning he had a grand total of 40.5 months of food left on the ship by the time he found Rocky.
We can then head over to omnicalculator's space travel calculator and start plugging in numbers to get exactly how many months it'd take to get to 40 Eridani (look I did the math to calculate the distance from the edge of the Tau Ceti system to 40 Eridani, too, the difference is negligible). The Hail Mary weighs 100,000 kg without fuel (we don't need fuel for the calculation)(page 165), accelerates at 1.5 g (or about 15 m/s^2)(page 19), and it's 10 light years from Tau Ceti to 40 Eridani (9.99913031 light years from the edge of the system but it literally does not change the answer by any significant amount)(page 301). So it takes about 43.705-43.71 months to get from Tau Ceti to 40 Eridani (like I said, not much of a difference), and if you'll notice he has an absolute maximum of 43 months of food left if we're solely going from page 417's estimates, and a 40.5 months by the numbers estimate from when he finds Rocky and makes the estimate above on page 468, so that's it. Grace is on the taumoeba diet for 3 months before getting to Erid. Except it's not... quite that simple.
While we don't know the caloric value per kilogram of taumoeba or exactly what eating it does to the human body, the two named nutritional deficiencies, beriberi and scurvy (lack of vitamin b1 and c respectively), actually give us a good indicator of the timeline, whether Andy intended it as such or not.
According to this article on B1 deficiency, you have around four weeks after you stop intake of B1 before you contract beriberi, and while we don't know what type of beriberi he contracted, we know you have at most about a week before it's fatal. So, we can conclude that Grace switched to the all taumoeba diet at most a month before arriving on Erid, most likely later.
And this article on scurvy indicates you can develop it in 1-3 months, so assuming the coma slurry is formulated to store both vitamin c and b1 long term and it didn't break down (a feat on this own considering this article from NASA, and the irony is the article is about a mission testing the feasibility of producing b1 and c on demand in space) both the scurvy and beriberi were caused by a lack of vitamin b1 and c in the taumoeba, and would've developed after about a month of the taumoeba diet (possibly longer for the scurvy), which is an impressive turnaround on the Eridians' part for producing vitamin B1, even if you assume they have it somewhere in their ecology.
So, the absolute earliest he can go on the all taumoeba diet is 4 weeks before reaching Erid, and until then he has to subsist off of the coma slurry.
If you'll notice, purely by the numbers and eating only one type of food at a time, Grace runs out of human chow three months before reaching Erid.
So, we have a few narrative options here:
Grace was lying about how much food he had left so Rocky wouldn't worry
Andy Weir fudged the numbers, the quote from page 468 is accurate, and Grace didn't actually run out of human chow until after he'd docked on Erid's space elevator or possibly after he'd gotten down to the biodome
Grace miscalculated somewhere and either has way more food than he thought and was fine, or way less, and if he hadn't turned around and gotten the taumoeba idea from Rocky he wouldn't been In Trouble
Grace miscalculated on page 468 and ended up stretching the coma slurry by cutting it with taumoeba, this got him to or past the maximum time from Erid he could've possibly switched to the all taumoeba diet and survived but then he ran out of the slurry
And if someone goes for options one, three, or four (I'm an option four man myself) then we can infer that even though the taumoeba are giving him calories, he's getting 100% of those calories from microbes, and while I don't... think anyone's researched "can you shovel scoops of amoebas into your gullet and live" in a scientific capacity? I can't imagine that alien microbes are giving Grace enough macronutrients to avoid a calorie deficit, even alien microbes that eat the most energy filled thing in the book (or he gets like, protein poisoning or something depending on exactly how many proteins to carbs he's getting).
Like is Grace starving on the way to Erid fanon? Yeah, I did have to do a lot to prove that it's likely, and even then I would only put it at the tail end I've seen some people get the starvation going in like, year two somehow, but I'd argue that Grace not starving on the way to Erid is equally fanon, considering just how numbers-oriented Andy Weir's books can be and just how many numbers there are that say "oh he is not looking good"
This tiktok of Andy talking to Hank about literally stopping the print run of his book to correct the math of the pendulum which iirc only appears in the book once and it's in chapter 2 is why I trust Andy's numbers more than what Ryland Grace the Character has to say about them
my "I'm with the boomers on this one" take is that I should not need an app to park my fucking car. increasingly when I'm out and about and need to use public parking, the only option is an app. no. no. give me a meter I can plug the loose change from the bottom of my purse into. worst comes to absolute worst give me a machine to insert my credit card which prints a receipt for the dashboard of my car (I don't like those either but at least they are on site). "to pay for parking, download our app!" why don't you download my ass

Tiger found caged in abandoned home gets second chance at wildlife sanctuary: āHe seems to be so happyā
The estimated 350-pound tiger was transported to the facility, an affiliate of the Humane Society of the United States, on Wednesday afternoon, and is settling in well, Almrud said. There, he will have the chance to roam in enclosures of up to three acres.
Almrud, who estimates him to be about 2 years old, described the moment he first walked onto the grass at the sanctuary as remarkable.
āIt was just amazing to see him walk out on grass and to see him explore and have that freedom of movement,ā she said. āIt was just such a reward and fulfilling to us.ā
Now, he spends his days rolling around the grass in glee, Almrud said.
āHe comes right up to the fence every time a staff member is present,ā she said. āHe seems very amenable to our presence.ā
The tiger is eating well ā a combination of chicken, humanely raised non-processed beef and whole prey complete with organs and bones. It appears that he was being fed chicken, which is what owners of exotic cats often feed them, but chicken alone does not provide the complete nutrition they need to thrive, Almrud said.
In addition, caregivers are tasked with keeping the tiger mentally stimulated by creating āpretend huntingā games and rotating him through different areas so he has access to new smells and environments to explore.
āHe seems to happy and content,ā Almrud said. āOur staff is just falling in love with him.ā
So I do 3D modeling and printing as a hobby, and a few weeks ago I designed wheel guards meant to prevent office chairs from running over cables and clothes... or your pet's tail.
I got the idea from cowcatchers old locomotives used to have.
Anyways, yesterday I uploaded the model to Thingiverse, and just hours after uploading it, the Community Relationship Manager of the whole website left a comment suggesting I enter the model into a competition that's currently being held on the site.
So I did... and now it's in third place not even a day later. First place is $500, but the competition still has a month to go.
Then the Community Manager contacted me again, telling me they want to feature my model in anĀ upcoming design promotion.
Just, what is happening? I mostly made this thing for myself in, like, an hour, and now it's suddenly super popular? This is all a little bit overwhelming šµāš«
Other models I worked on for weeks didn't get nearly as popular. I swear, it's impossible to predict what people will like.
Anyways, if you want to print the wheel guards yourself, you can get the model here or here.
I also made a quiet version you can stick furniture felt pads on.
Ladies andĀ GentlemenĀ i present to youĀ John Carpenterās The Thing,Ā as performed by the claymated, Antarctic cast of the hit childrenās animation Pingu. Directed by Lee Hardcastle,Ā in under 3 minutes. Noot, Noot.
This is an absolutely amazing demonstration of skill and artistry with claymation, absolutely stunning, and absolutely as bloody, gorey, body-horror filled as the original film!
(aka, please do not click play if you cannot handle very graphic body horror and blood.)
If you can handle viewing the original 1970s āThe Thingā, you should be able to handle this, and will be in for a treat!

wtf are you talking about, they didn't "deplete" the nature of their country, they cultivated their wilderness over centuries into some of the most idyllic pastoral landscapes in the entire world. And they did such a good job of it that the phrase "English countryside" is now synonymous with beauty and serenity and peacefulness. They didn't destroy their country's nature, they became its caretaker, they're right to be proud of it. All you're doing is pretending that the only kind of nature that should count is whatever is completely untouched by human hands.
The UK is literally ranked in the bottom 10% of most nature-depleted countries in the world. The 2023 State of Nature report shows just how dire the situation is. A third of UK bird species have declined since the 1990s, 97% of the UK's wildflower meadows have been lost since the 1930s, raw sewage is constantly being pumped into our rivers and seas with agricultural slurry also causing massive damage to rivers, three quarters of Britain's hedgehogs have been lost in the past 20 years and UK butterfly numbers are at their lowest ever, a sign of impending ecosystem collapse. Plus people in Britain are the most disconnected from nature in Europe.
Not to mention over populated deer destroying what little is left due to a lack of predators, 60 million non-native birds released for sport shooting every year, plus huge amounts of wildlife crime, including large numbers of birds of prey being shot/poisoned.
There is nothing beautiful about a sterile, ecologically damaged landscape that contains nothing but sheep and deer. Don't comment on something you clearly know nothing about. I live in England. I can see first hand just how dire the situation is.
