my hot take is that if you are in a community devoted to ecology (such as birding), you don't demand images or descriptions of natural predation are censored, you don't whine about big mean meanie hawks eating your pwecious widdle spawwows, and you don't villainize parasitic reproductive strategies

It is clear to me, listening to this cover, that the old guy who should be covering "drivers license" is actually Stephin Merritt

"wait, is stephin merritt old?" "wait, am I old?!" is a new approach to the eternal question

we seriously need to do something about the fact that “old school renaissance” tabletop rpgs, when pluralized as they frequently are have the same initials as old school runescape when my friends are talking about asking me to play osrs with them i do not know HOW loudly to say FUCK NO

"no consensual pornography made by adults being paid fairly for their labor, only generated nonconsensual pornography made for people who get off on violation" is actually completely ideologically consistent with the conservative christian project

guy who asked me if I needed help carrying 100lbs of chicken feed to my car: what was your vision if I had said yes? do I sort of awkwardly shuffle around so you can take one of the sacks, or am I supposed to huck it down in the middle of the parking lot, or what

working on early horses, i wanted to do a quick sketch to show how small Eohippus was compared to an extant horse (this one is about 150cm tall). as you can see, it wasn't big at all. a perfect little lap horse :) #paleoart #sciart

rneed people to start pairing their pissy expressions with gestures so I can tell whether someone is painting me with hatebeams because they 1) clocked me as trans; 2) resent me for wearing a mask; 3) overheard me singing both parts of a duet and were expecting two people to walk around the corner

Read this comic, tell your friends, you will like it!!! and if you don’t like it, idk man. it was free. read it on the toilet. I know you’re looking at your phone while you’re on the toilet anyway, maybe look at this for a while

replaying the dream I was having in my head like "what the SHIT was that"

Someone is responding in Chinese to a fic I wrote and we’re talking through translate and, idk, I’m very taken by how our completely different experiences and lives on opposite sides of the world can coalesce into the shared belief that Lace from Silksong is a dumb lesbian.
