I think we can all use this reminder.

some fandom disagreements are like "I see your point but I think this other aspect of the narrative is more significant," and some are like "I don't think you can read."

I hate 2 say it but being a part of a “weird” subculture does not meaningfully inoculate you against a conservative moralizing impulse. You gotta unlearn that. Saying “cringe is dead” is not enough, you have to actually be okay with things that discomfort, perplex and/or disgust you.

“what radicalized you” bro EMPATHY

#correction: compassion #empathy is a feeling and not something you can control. it’s morally neutral. some people can’t feel it #due to disability or otherwise. COMPASSION; however; is a muscle anyone can train. it requires intellect #and a heart; not ‘putting yourself in someone’s shoes’; but believing that they deserve dignity; freedom and rights because they’re HUMAN #sorry for being pedantic about this. it’s the autism.

I talked a lot about wetlands in my comment, because I live in an area with a lot of small ones and each one has unique conditions, and also because I live in an area prone to flooding and wetlands are key in mitigating flooding. If you feel passionately about the water near you, that's the sort of thing lawmakers need to hear.

I queued this up over an hour ago and there's still only 33 comments. I made mine, but it's not showing as being the 34th (I don't know if they need to be reviewed first, or if a site (or personnel) issue is preventing the comments from showing).

you have to admit it: most if not all animals are very brave. they do a lot of things and dont always know whats going to happen. they have beautiful eternal souls because of this

one detail i think is important to point out: if you look at the video frame by frame, you will see that his pants come off

reblog for easter

forget april fools day its almost time for the best video on this entire fuckin planet

sunglasses. no sun. it’s cloudy: overcast. 

I'd truly be the worst person to stick into a timeloop because I'd really just spend the first 5 years catching up on my book tbr, the next 7 on all the movies and shows that've Been On My List for ages, and then another decade on ao3. like sure nothing may stick but my memories will and i can just go into a supermarket to get snacks and wine each day, and i have art to indulge in. like thanks for the hints on how to get out but respectfully, I am busy

hey say something nice to me

no not ABOUT me. TO me. share with me a nice little fact or story! something longlost and tenderhearted. a little slice of schadenfreude. a truth about the world that will send me into a psychological nosedive or whatnot. im not picky!!

We literally just found life on another planet and everybody is just like "and?" Life on earth so wild rn we don't even care 💀💀

To be more clear, it's not 100% it is 99.7%, which is .2% less than confirmation (99.9~%) but it is also expected to rise to confirmation as they learn more considering their initial testing was much lower and rose to a whopping 99.7% at their last testing. To most this is considered IT as far as finding life!
