Past The Edge of Reason

ALSO A DADDY LONG LEGS is different in the UK vs USA. I learned that by arguing with some Brits because they said there was a daddy long legs on the wall, i looked and only saw an insect, argued with them all for 45 minutes until we all looked it up and saw that we were both correct.

an extremely good post addition

Awwwww what an adorable addition!

@mildlybizarrecorvid thus seen like the knowledge you may enjoy

I honestly didn’t know there were non-African porcupines, I’d only seen the African ones

Some Native American tribes in North America (don’t know about South America) use porcupine quills as beads to sew on or make jewelry with. I have a pair of porcupine quill earrings my grandmother bought somewhere.

You know, there's this cliché that teenage boys always eat massive amounts, but teenage girls really aren't that different if they're not suppressed by diet culture and body shaming. Like, I was a teenage girl who frankly just stopped bothering to fit into mainstream beauty ideals at some point, and I would regularly make myself just one big massive pot of pasta and devour it completely. This wasn't even stress eating or anything, I just genuinely needed the energy because you know, I was a teenager and my body was developing. I feel like so many teenage girls think they need to eat as little as possible to be petite and pretty, but the truth is that your body is developing just as intensely as teenage boys' bodies. Eat more, please, your body needs it.

I'm still open for this, so by all means ask away. 😄
