Priest Of The FSM

cool animal meme dude hey just wondering why is that fennec fox in somebody's living room

"it's just a meme let people have fun" NO. you WILL learn about wildlife trafficking and its role in the exotic pet trade

they're selling anti-ai slogans on sweatshop-produced t-shirts. i don't need to write the poem for you to get it do i

I love when people ask "how did you learn this skill?" I just started, there's no secret. that's it. a vast majority of the time the only thing holding you back is your trepidation to start.

I'm going to fix everything in the next three hours everyone wish me luck. if i dont then probably ill dig a hole and lie down in it for a bit in the rain/sun/whatever outside looks like these days

the hole isnt even that bad

oh my fuckning

UNMUTE THIS

I’m at a cafe and I started crying because I had to contain my laughter at how stupidly funny this is

Goddamn preach this

"Your most important survival skill is asking for help." THIS, it makes me so damn pissed off when parents try and normalize that asking for help is a taboo thing!

This feels important to reblog

underrated facet of living in a body is how doing strenuous physical activity can make food taste better and feel better to eat and allow you to have more of it. you're telling me that not only did I do a bunch of stuff today, thereby allowing me to feel emotionally accomplished and competent, but I also get a physical pleasure reward? fuck yes thank you biology <3

Wow I don’t understand math at all

I think my brain just stopped working

100% is just another way of saying twice more likely. So 100% more basically means multiply the number you do have by 2.

Imagine how many woman are scared to have kids because of that statistic

This is why I took stats instead of calc. Because I don’t build engineer bridges in my everyday life but I sure do read studies that affect how I might live my life if I misinterpret them.

I’m terrible at numbers and math but I knew this and I really take it for granted. The average person definitely assumes, quite understandably, that “600% INCREASE!!!” must always mean a whole lot even if it literally only means that one of something is now six of something. Politicians probably take a shitload of advantage of this confusion.

just remember that increased BY and increased TO are very different things.

Oh god I didn’t even think about that whole other layer of confusion. Yeah if you’ve got 100 people and one of them is sick, that’s 1% of them who are sick, so if it “increased BY 100%” then that means now two people are sick. If it’s “increased TO 100%” then all 100 people are sick.

Reblogging again for that last addition.

This isn't even a joke it's just what we do

Recovery has to be its own reward. That's the hardest part about it, frankly. No one's gonna come by and give you a gold star for taking care of yourself. It takes effort and patience, but you begin to thank yourself eventually

It sucks that I can't ask someone if I'm doing good and receive that validation. I could, but it would be meaningless. But then if I'm saving myself just to please other people then there really is no point, right?
