I know next to nothing about botany but the phrase “feral sunflower” is hilarious to me

trying to explain to a 50 something criminal profiler that suicidal teenagers are people responding to internal logic with root causes rather than mindless droids who catch social contagions via rock music and tiktok

“but they seemed so happy!” yeah that’s the oldest suicide cliche in the book. it’s called hiding things and the more you act like suicidality is some irrational external contagion that can be prevented by taking away freedoms the more you train your kid to hide things.

Hollanov are always going to have crushes on each other. They're gonna be married for over a decade and Ilya is still gonna puff up and preen when he makes Shane laugh at one of his snarky comments or goofy bits, which Ilya said specifically to make Shane laugh. Because he has a crush on him. Shane is gonna smile and flush and sort of bury his face into the pillows when he wakes up to Ilya already looking at him, eyes heavy lidded. He's gonna mumble "Hi~" all shy and bashful. Because he has a crush on him. They are perpetually crushing on each other. Any minute now I'm gonna start sobbing

last night was talking to my dad about career plans and he goes "i dont know if you should do a trade, you should print tshirts and sell them at the oceanfront"

they should legalize polyamory. everywhere. and im not kidding at all. if someone wants to marry multiple people they should be allowed to. for any reason.

before anybody tries to say some bullshit about this, extending the definition of marriage to include multiple people would give members of religions forced into abusive polygamy the same rights any divorcing spouse would have without putting them at risk for being charged with bigamy. this would make it easier for people to leave abusive plural marriages.

Once again, the best way to protect the exploited is through regulation, which cannot be done without legalization.

Men writing about female criminals in the 1800s loved to be like “women are like cats: they LOOOOOVE arsenic and lying”
