ngl I'm gonna need this site to stop right the fuck now with whatever rising aphobia has decided to suddenly skyrocket in the last month of 2023

I really like how many of the world’s most iconic structures and places are just right next to some of the most mundane stuff imaginable, for example

Stonehenge

Is right next to a busy road

The Pyramids of Giza

Are at the outskirts of Cairo

Niagara Falls

Are part of the town of the same name

And Agrippa’s Pantheon

Is crammed inside downtown Rome

It just so interesting to notice.

as far as starting T (as someone who's finally a legal adult), is it something you can just bring up to your doctor? i still go to a family dr, so i'd also be forced to come out to my mom first,,,but is it something youre allowed to ask outright for?

Its allowed, yes. How well it will go ofc depends on the specific doctor & your circumstances. But your primary isn't going to yell at you for asking to be prescribed a specific medicine, unless they are a huge dick to their patients (which unfortunately isn't as rare as it should be).

Look at that thats pretty cool

I only learned recently that people from Not America don’t specify hard cider and instead it’s just cider.

I know this is a small difference but it is surprisingly one I do sometimes have to lie down on the floor about.

you can’t support autistic people and support the police. No amount of paint jobs or sensitivity training can stop police from killing with impunity

i think we should remind musicians they can absolutely make up little stories for their songs btw. it doesn’t have to be about them at all. you can invent a guy and put him in situations to music. time honoured tradition in fact.

This was on my post about how the owners of Hobby Lobby used the chaos caused by the US invasion of Iraq, which destabilized the country and caused the looting of the national museum of Baghdad, to smuggle thousands of stolen artifacts into the US to stock their Evangelical Christian propaganda Museum of the Bible.

Like, you do you, I’m not a cop and I’m not your mom, but damn why would you proudly and publicly proclaim this

If you are watching a TV show, it can be live action or animated.

But not when you're reading a book. Much to think about.

Writing tip of the day: whenever you can, plug a plot hole with a character flaw!

Every time you realise that it makes no sense that the characters didn't do some super logical thing in the first place, figure out which character could have prevented it by simply the way they are as a person. You're not only solving the problem of the plot hole, but also the issue of writing flaws into your characters in a way that doesn't feel gratituous and contrived.

Why did the characters not use this weapon they had access to the whole time? - The character who could have told them about it wants to have control over people and had personally decided they shouldn't have it.

Why didn't that one genius character just tell everyone how to dismantle the robots? - They meant to, but being an absent-minded genius, they literally just forgot.

How did nobody notice that this little girl has been hanging out with an actual demon for seven years? - The demon made her pinky-promise not to tell anyone about it, and being naive and overly trusting, she didn't find that sketchy at all.

Why didn't the characters go to The Big Cool Guys for help in the first place? - The character who is stubborn and overly proud wanted to choose death before dishonour and didn't want to ask for help.

Every time there was a perfectly reasonable solution accessible to the characters all along, that could've resolved the whole plot in minutes, always try to find an angle where someone prevented it just by who they are as a person.

If I ever do get an office job, I’m gonna need to really figure out how professional clothing works. My instincts for business casual are always “what if I was slutty, but in a really boring way?”
