i do art.
i rarely post completed art online for a variety of reasons, but I’m a ceramicist and fine artist.
i do ecology.
i merge landscaping with native ecosystems and have worked to restore midwest floodplains and prairie ecosystems! ask me about the many benefits of plants that are acclimated to their environment.
i do herpetology.
I have 7 snakes - Octavia, Klavier, Sandwich, Bacon, Tulip, Petrichor, and Maranta. I've also got 7 crested geckos – Gizarmaluke, Vyv, Dino, Kuja, Chadley, Ramuh, and Wedge. Snakes were intentional, I happened into the geckos.
i love a whole lot of other things.
transfeminism, amphibians, arthropods, cambrian and ediacaran fauna, giant isopods, final fantasy 9 and 7, and my dog doppio!
go find a plant and give it a kiss for me.
common tags to blacklist under the readmore
broadly: if bugs n snake talk aren't your thing, this probably isn't the follow for you. i used to be more religious with tags but now i'm just here to curate a happy page of things for me to look at and have a silly littel grin from time to time. :) i tag some things for friends and to weed out for myself later:
spiders - tagged as spiders
nonspider bugs / arthropods - usually tagged as skittery bits.
uspol - united states bullshit.
fuck landlords tag - anticapitalist nonsense
transphobia - yeah i tag that shit
long post - ask about 2012-15 tumblr if u really gotta know why
feel free to ask if you need somethin tagged and i'll do my best to tag it with very few exceptions. i have a separate snake/herp blog and body weirds blog, and once in a blue moon a bird blog.
heads up that i have a very low tolerance for egregious discourse. if i get a lick of something fishy happening anon goes off and i block liberally. mostly have to put this here bc of Ye Olde Hair Loss Post which people still dig up and get terfy on sometimes. trans ndrophob a truthers and other tra sp obic smellin' content generally earns you a block. godspeed

To be very clear about this: CPUs aren't magical devices that can operate forever. They generate heat. They wear out over time. This happens faster when they're operating near capacity. This is not just an attempt to inconvenience you; this is an attempt to damage your property.
For the "crime" of not wanting to be tracked/have ads pissed into your eyeballs 24/7.
Even if you've paid for the "privilege" of the latter.
Fuck Google, and I hope they get sued into oblivion over this.
i see everyone in the notes talking about newpipe but nobody's talking about youtube alternatives for desktop
IF YOU USE A DESKTOP PC OR LAPTOP, TRY INVIDIOUS
https://invidious.io/
it is a free, open-source alternative YouTube front-end. in addition to not having ads, it has other great QoL features like a download button. try one of the several instances on that link up there ^^^^
so i was super pissed and concerned about this but i have just discovered that while this is true, it is apparently only true for google chrome users. i just tested this by having ten tabs open in firefox playing ten different youtube videos at the same time and my cpu usage spiked to 25% as the videos were loading and then dropped back down to 10% as they played.
if you ever needed another reason to switch to a different browser, this is it.
people like the idea that there is an identity they can claim that will absolve them of the responsibility to examine their beliefs and actions and adjust them accordingly to better align with their values and desired outcomes but there isn't, we all have to practice humility and do the work regardless

Start disappointing people and not backing out of it when they are upset, reject feeling ashamed of everything including of yourself, start saying No to things you do not want to do not just things you're scared of, do more of those things you're scared of but wish you could do, make your own plans and execute them, decide to do or not do something without basing it on who will Dislike it.
Free Will takes practice, and the chance of making someone somewhere Slightly or even Very Disappointed In You. But you're an adult and you can't be made to stand in a corner anymore.
people who are like "but with universal healthcare you'll have to pay taxes!!! Up to 8%!!!" Are so funny. Like as opposed to the 16% of my gross paycheck that goes to private insurance, that won't cover shit unless i call my insurance company, then my doctor, then my pharmacy, then my doctor again because theyre pretty sure insurance got approved then my insurance company because they didn't get the letter, then my doctor again, then the pharmacy again, and then the copay i still am on the hook for.
My one boring tip to anyone in their 20s is to resist the temptation to rot in your room every time you get a free moment. Dismiss any neuroses you have about going outside and "being perceived". Be a dictator about it, plan your hangouts like they are binding commitments. No excuses! Go to the bar with your friends. Be kinda hungover at work. Socializing is like exercise; even if you don't feel like you want to, you should still do it because it's good for you.
socializing works a little bit like a car battery and alternator. if you continue to make yourself go out and do things, your social alternator makes it infinitely more manageable for you to continue to go out and do things. if you let yourself be completely idle for too long, the alternator doesn't get to keep charging your battery and eventually it runs completely down and it's nearly impossible to go out and do stuff with a dead social battery. you can always get it jumped again by a friend who's willing to do so, but as with a real car battery it's kind of a whole Thing and the first time out with a jumped battery is still really shaky and weird and anxiety-inducing and all of this could've been avoided if you'd just gone to the arcade or whatever

you should know about fmhy.net. stands for free media hell yeah. it's a site aggregator, organizing and categorizing links to all sorts of other sites. there's piracy and streaming sites like you'd expect but also tons of other cool shit.
I especially like their useful sites subsection, which makes for great web surfing (say, when's the last time you surfed the web?) but also here's their section on HRT, or maybe you'd like to see some tools to improve this dysfunctional website?
make fmhy.net your homepage to doomscroll a little less
when the blackberry bushes have thorns to discourage mammals from monopolizing the consumption of their fruits and encourage birds to spread their seeds but they don’t know that the mammal in question is ME #notdiscouraged

Btw, that idea that privilege makes you morally evil and suffering makes you morally good is just repackaged versions of the Christian concepts of the evils of luxury and the holiness of martyrdom. Hope this helps!
