superb fairywrens are a small species of bird native to parts of asia and australia. male superb fairywrens have bright blue highlights during breeding, while juveniles and females are plain brown. male fairywrens court their mate by offering them yellow flower petals.

I am not joking I am not exaggerating the thirst on this fucking website for cis dudes w a lil extra fat on their chests... And the insistence on referring to those as titties and boobs and big naturals. Has made me (trans man) feel significantly better about my boobs! Everyone here sees a dude with big ol bazoonkas and goes fucking apeshit. Hell yeah. Men's tits. I got those too! Maybe they're also hot on me! Holy shit! Men's tits!

Okay, like, yes in general or for smaller elections, but no for the November election I beg you.

The saying goes, democrats fall in love, republicans fall in line. For big elections like the upcoming presidential election, republicans will be voting for Trump even if they now dislike him, because they are doing what the OP suggested and voting against their "enemy" rather than *for* someone they like. The only way to ensure the US doesn't turn into a dictatorship is to hold your nose and vote against Trump. And make no mistake, it *will* be a dictatorship that destroys everything you love. The republicans have shown time and time again that they don't even give a shit about *the law* if it means their hawkish party member gets into office (see: the judge holding up the Trump case about classified document leaks, which is a VERY BAD THING for a president to do).

Vote third party downballot tho, be my guest.

So, there's a lot of USians around who are very clearly fucking fed up with their political choices this election cycle, and planning to sit it out.

And I get it! What's the point of voting if there's no one to vote for?

The thing is, I'm Australian. In Australia, voting is compulsory. We don't get to sit out our elections, and I'll be real honest with you - we don't exactly get better choices than you lot. So how do you vote if there's no one to vote for? You find someone to vote against. And there's always someone to vote against.

Now, we have the pleasure of preferential voting in Australia - We get to rank every candidate from 1 to X, and I'll tell you, there's something so cathartic about putting the biggest bastard of the lot at the very bottom of your preferences. I understand that USians don't get that option - you get to mark one person, and that's it.

That means that you get one shot, so aim it at the biggest bastard of the lot. The candidate you most utterly detest. Put your vote in the worst possible place for them. Don't even think about who that vote's going towards, that's not the point. Remember, every vote is a vote against someone. Make sure you fuck up that someone's election day!

one time when I was a barista I was telling my coworker that I suddenly really missed cows. I used to work with cows all the time back home and then I moved away and suddenly it had been four years and nary a cow.

15 minutes later this old guy came up to the counter with his address written on a napkin & he said “me and my wife have a whole herd of dexters and a couple of new calves. come on over any time”

so after work I was like ok fuck it & I drove to the address and I parked at the gate & I walked down the driveway to the barn and this woman was like “oh my husband told me you might stop by! come see our cows” and she introduced me to every single cow. made my whole week.

thank you cow couple

Plant of the Day

In the shelter of a Polycrub I really enjoy growing tulips as a cut flower. The star at the moment is Tulipa 'Rasta Parrot' (tulip) which provides an explosion of colour with twisted, curling petals, of irregular shape and in unusual patterns.
