my notifications are once again devolving into a spirited debate about the ethics of actions that could potentially make someone uncomfortable, and at risk of sounding like someone about to get a lot of irate anons I think we're frankly giving way too to much moral weight to hypothetical discomfort

the thing about discomfort is that it's an extremely nebulous category that can be triggered by virtually anything and that's far too broad a category to have any inherent moral quality to it. like. my mom was mad uncomfortable when I stopped shaving. that didn't mean I was doing violence against my mom it just meant she needed to get over herself. many such cases it must be said.

you’re allowed to be a boy btw. You’re allowed to be a girl. You’re allowed to be both or neither or something else entirely. You’re allowed.

😭sweet dreams Thomas 🤣😭

A big part of being a quadruped is being able to just lie down anytime. Waiting? Loaf time. Talking to someone shorter than you? Loaf time. Falling asleep in the sun? Loaf time. Bored? Loaf it up till something interesting happens. Leg hurt? Loaf time.

this is the quote that made me want to pursue science.

This gifset is being circulated in sciencey circles right now and it gives me warm fuzzies.

This is a scientist.

I am shamed to say this and this probably gets me cancelled but I'd literally spent my entire life thinking rasputin song was about vladimir putin. like every time I listened to the song / every time I heard it play, I literally thought it was about vladimir putin 😭😭😭😭
