your knees would not "reverse" if you transformed into a digitigrade animal, your feet would get longer and become the lower segment of your legs while ur thighs get stouter & higher.

sorry ive just experienced this happening in 2 pieces of media now and it bugs me.

Polyamory is safe for work. Polyamory is safe for kids. Polyamory is safe for day time tv. Polyamory isn’t more sexual than any other relationship and it can be just as romantic, sweet, and healthy.

'are you shipping Father Ted and Father Dougal' no; Ted is doing some kind of tax dodging scheme.

in scenario 1 Ted would make him go back to get it corrected & then he got home be like 'ok, what's your name now?' and Dougal would be like 'Ted Crilly' and Ted would have to call the deed poll people like 'help my husband is trying to take my name' and they'd be like 'isn't that what happens when you get married' and Ted would be like 'no you don't understand. he's taken the whole thing.'

inevitable conclusion of this i think is that everyone on Craggy Island embraces the fact that they have 2 Father Ted Crillies now, over Ted's protests, so he decides his only recourse is to let Dougal keep Ted Crilly and change his own name. he does some soul searching about what the Ideal Name for his Ideal Self would be, comes up with a shortlist of 100 names and starts spiralling. eventually it turns out none of Dougal's name changes went through because he filled in his paperwork incorrectly so Ted divorces him and they never speak of it again.

oh that's what the dwarves were doing

similarly to how you should never trust gamers with a nonbinary character i feel like you can also never trust a fandom with an aroace character. whether it's explicitly canon or implied it just ends up the same

every time an allo person wants to ship an aroace spec coded character they should write an essay with MLA format citations on how this serves the themes of the story and is necessary for the character and how their ship is any different than the relationships said character already has and they should also send $500 dollars minimum to at least one aroace person in their fandom

"but people can do whatever they want!!!" i don't caaaaaare go examine your biases and cry about it or i'm blowing both of us up

sorry i will never understand cis grief. your daughter is living her best life and going around with friends and feeling like a human being. your son doesn’t feel like he needs to crawl out of his skin anymore and can actually smile. your children are happy and no longer see their existence as the worst thing in the world. why are you grieving this lmao. grow up.

I have just combined all rice in the world into a single rouse

Something that I have noticed is I know almost nobody my age that goes to a food pantry. I know people who regularly run out of money for food and in general have to eat an unsuitable diet because that’s what they can afford and they still don’t go to a food bank, im not sure if it’s because they’re embarrassed or maybe if you didn’t grow up going you don’t know much about it but if you’re financially struggling I really recommend it. And look into other options for food assistance too like community fridges and gardens and other programs that can assist you, where I live Salvation Army pays for an allotted amount of grocery delivery for low income people every month, in the summer farmers take excess produce to the library to be taken by anyone who needs it, etc. There are a LOT of resources for free food that you can look into especially if you are literally not eating because of your financial situation

Btw if you have dietary restrictions you can often let them know and in many cases they’ll prioritize certain items for you

Good thing to have on hand in the midst of food stamps issues

i know folks are gonna call me a pedo for this one, but i grew up seeing my mom and grandma naked. they had health issues and at times needed care and help showering. and i truly think more kids need to be shown the nonsexual reality of naked women at a young age. there is nothing sexual about my grandmothers breasts, they were simply body parts. more women die of heart attacks because people are too afraid of breasts to do real chest compressions, because they are scared to touch their breasts. the sexualization of our bodies literally kills us. i need people to be more normal about naked bodies and i'm 100% serious.

I grew up around naked old people who weren't even my family! Gasp! And it was a good thing. I grew up around old-school hippies at a place called Lothlorien (in Indiana) and one of my friends dads held a sauna day every Sunday in the middle of the woods (like you cannot drive to their house, you park about a quarter mile away and walk into the woods kind of woods). All day random old people came to get naked, high (pot), and sweaty. Just random old peen and boobs swaying with the leaves. No big deal. These are things that I believe made me more at home in my body, made me more excited about aging, made me more willing to fight for my security and safety.

Bodies are just bodies. Nothing sacred and nothing inherently shameful or sinful either. The fact that we still can't get that through everyone in however many years it's been is just fucking idiotic.

'are you shipping Father Ted and Father Dougal' no; Ted is doing some kind of tax dodging scheme.

dougal would end up saying something to the effect of "but your name is "father ted"? clearly "ted" is the last name in that??" because it would absolutely not occur to him that he, too, is referred to as "father"
